Prior to receiving any Personal Data of Customer, Sub-processors will be under written agreements that are substantially similar in scope, where applicable, to this DPA and the Standard Contractual Clauses. 3DNA and its Affiliates shall ensure that each Sub-processor performs the obligations under Sections 2 (compliance with applicable laws), 6 (security measures), 3 (data subject rights), 6.b (data breach), 9 (data protection impact assessment), and 8.c (audit rights), as they apply to Processing of Customer Personal Data carried out by that Sub-processor, as if it were party to this Addendum in place of 3DNA. Where 3DNA’s Sub-processors fail to fulfil their data protection obligations, 3DNA will remain fully responsible and liable for the performance of its obligations and of those Sub-processors’ obligations pursuant to this DPA.
- List of Current Sub-Processors. 3DNA and each 3DNA Affiliate may continue to use those Sub-processors already engaged by 3DNA or any 3DNA Affiliate as of the date of this Addendum, subject to 3DNA and each 3DNA Affiliate in each case as soon as practicable meeting the obligations set out in section 5.b.
- Notice and Objection Right to New Sub-Processors. 3DNA will provide Customer with notice of any new Sub-processor, at https://nationbuilder.com/subprocessors. If Customer objects in writing within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice to a particular Sub-processor Processing Personal Data (with specific details of Customer’s reasons for objection), and that objection is not unreasonable in 3DNA’s reasonable determination, 3DNA will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide an alternative method for provision of the Service to Customer, without Processing Personal Data using the new Sub-processor. If no objection is received within such ten (10) day period, such Sub-Processor shall be deemed approved.

Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing, as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, 3DNA shall, in relation to protection of Customer Personal Data, maintain a data security policy, which incorporates technical, administrative, and physical security measures designed to ensure the safety and integrity of Personal Data, including, as appropriate, the measures referred to in Article 32(1) of the GDPR. Customers may request a copy of 3DNA’s Data Security Documentation, which 3DNA will provide under a confidentiality agreement. 3DNA may revise, but, not materially diminish the standards set out in the Data Security Documentation during the Agreement.
- Personal Data Breach.
- 3DNA shall notify Customer, without undue delay, upon 3DNA or any 3DNA Sub-processor becoming aware of and verifying the occurrence of a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer Personal Data, providing Customer with sufficient information to allow Customer to meet any obligations to report or inform Data Subjects of the Personal Data Breach under the Data Protection Laws.
- 3DNA shall co-operate with Customer and assist in the investigation, mitigation and remediation of each such Personal Data Breach.

- ADDITIONAL TERMS
- Application of Standard Contractual Clauses.
- The Standard Contractual Clauses provided in Attachment 1 shall apply only to Processing of Personal Data as defined under the GDPR that is directly or indirectly transferred from the European Economic Area (“EEA”), to any recipient in a country that is: (1) not recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection to personal data, and (2) not covered by a suitable framework for the protection of Personal Data.

Customer may contact 3DNA in accordance with the “Notices” Section of the Agreement to request an on-site audit of the procedures relevant to the protection of Personal Data.
- Customer or the relevant Customer Affiliate undertaking an audit shall give 3DNA or the relevant 3DNA Affiliate reasonable notice of any audit or inspection and shall make (and ensure that each of its mandated auditors makes) reasonable efforts to avoid causing (or, if it cannot avoid, to minimize) any damage, injury or disruption to the 3DNA’s and its Affiliates’ premises, equipment, personnel and business while its personnel are on those premises in the course of such an audit or inspection. 3DNA or its Affiliates need not give access to their premises for the purposes of such an audit or inspection:

ATTACHMENT 1
STANDARD CONTRACTUAL CLAUSES (PROCESSORS)
For the purposes of Article 26(2) of Directive 95/46/EC for the transfer of personal data to processors established in third countries which do not ensure an adequate level of data protection, Customer (hereafter “data exporter”) and 3DNA Corp., 520 S. Grand Avenue, Suite 200, Lost Angeles, California 90071, (213) 394-4623, privacy@nationbuilder.com (hereinafter “data importer”), each a “party” and together, the “parties”, have agreed on the following terms, including the Contractual Clauses (the “Clauses”) in order to evidence adequate safeguards with respect to the protection of privacy and fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals for the transfer by the data exporter to the data importer of the personal data specified in Appendix 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein.
Background
The data exporter has entered into a data processing addendum (“DPA”) with the data importer. Pursuant to the terms of the DPA, it is contemplated that services provided by the data importer will involve the transfer of personal data to data importer. Data importer is located in a country not ensuring an adequate level of data protection. To ensure compliance with Directive 95/46/EC and applicable data protection law, the controller agrees to the provision of such Services, including the processing of personal data incidental thereto, subject to the data importer’s execution of, and compliance with, the terms of these Clauses.
These Clauses are deemed to be amended from time to time, to the extent that they relate to a Restricted Transfer which is subject to the Data Protection Laws of a given country or territory, to reflect (to the extent possible without material uncertainty as to the result) any change (including any replacement) made in accordance with those Data Protection Laws (i) by the Commission to or of the equivalent contractual clauses approved by the Commission under EU Directive 95/46/EC or the GDPR (in the case of the Data Protection Laws of the European Union or a Member State); or (ii) by an equivalent competent authority to or of any equivalent contractual clauses approved by it or by another competent authority under another Data Protection Law (otherwise). All Appendices attached hereto are incorporated herein.
If these Clauses are not governed by the law of a Member State, the terms “Member State” and “State” are replaced, throughout, by the word “jurisdiction”.
Clause 1
Definitions
For the purposes of the Clauses:
- “personal data”, “special categories of data”, “process/processing”, “controller”, “processor”, “data subject” and “supervisory authority” shall have the same meaning as in Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data; [If these Clauses are governed by a law which extends the protection of data protection laws to corporate persons, the words “except that, if these Clauses govern a transfer of data relating to identified or identifiable corporate (as well as natural) persons, the definition of “personal data” is expanded to include those data” are added after “such data”.]
- “the data exporter” means the controller who transfers the personal data;
- “the data importer” means the processor who agrees to receive from the data exporter personal data intended for processing on his/her behalf after the transfer in accordance with (i) his/her instructions and (ii) the terms of the Clauses and (iii) who is not subject to a third country’s system ensuring adequate protection within the meaning of Article 25(1) of Directive 95/46/EC; [If these Clauses are not governed by the law of a Member State, the language of paragraph (c)(iii) of this Clause 1 is deemed deleted.]
- “the subprocessor” means any processor engaged by the data importer or by any other subprocessor of the data importer who agrees to receive from the data importer or from any other subprocessor of the data importer personal data exclusively intended for processing activities to be carried out on behalf of the data exporter after the transfer in accordance with his/her instructions, the terms of the Clauses and the terms of the written subcontract;
- “the applicable data protection law” means the legislation protecting the fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals and, in particular, their right to privacy with respect to the processing of personal data applicable to a data controller in the Member State in which the data exporter is established;
- “technical and organizational security measures” means those measures aimed at protecting personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, in particular where the processing involves the transmission of data over a network, and against all other unlawful forms of processing.

- The data subject can enforce against the data importer this Clause, Clauses 5(a)-5(e) and 5(g), Clause 6, Clause 7, Clause 8(2), and Clauses 9-12, in cases where the data exporter has factually disappeared or has ceased to exist in law unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract or by operation of law, as a result of which it takes on the rights and obligations of the data exporter, in which case the data subject can enforce them against such entity.
- The data subject can enforce against the subprocessor this Clause 3.3, Clauses 5(a)-5(e) and 5(g), Clause 6, Clause 7, Clause 8(2), and Clauses 9-12, in cases where both the data exporter and the data importer have factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract or by operation of law as a result of which it takes on the rights and obligations of the data exporter, in which case the data subject can enforce them against such entity. Such third-party liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to subprocessor’s own processing operations under the Clauses.
- The parties do not object to a data subject being represented by an association or other body if the data subject so expressly wishes and if permitted by national law.
Clause 4
Obligations of the Data Exporter
The data exporter agrees and warrants:
- that the processing, including the transfer itself, of the personal data has been and will continue to be carried out in accordance with the relevant provisions of the applicable data protection law (and, where applicable, has been notified to the relevant authorities of the Member State where the data exporter is established) and does not violate the relevant provisions of that State;

The data importer agrees and warrants:
- to process the personal data only on behalf of the data exporter and in compliance with its instructions and the Clauses; if it cannot provide such compliance for whatever reasons, it agrees to inform promptly the data exporter of its inability to comply, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract;
- that it has no reason to believe that the legislation applicable to it prevents it from fulfilling the instructions received from the data exporter and its obligations under the contract and that in the event of a change in this legislation which is likely to have a substantial adverse effect on the warranties and obligations provided by the Clauses, it will promptly notify the change to the data exporter as soon as it is aware, in which case the data exporter is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract;
- that it has implemented the technical and organizational security measures specified in Appendix 2 before processing the personal data transferred;
- that it will promptly notify the data exporter about:
- any legally binding request for disclosure of the personal data by a law enforcement authority unless otherwise prohibited, such as a prohibition under criminal law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation,
- any accidental or unauthorized access, and

- to make available to the data subject upon request a copy of the Clauses, or any existing contract for subprocessing, unless the Clauses or contract contain commercial information, in which case it may remove such commercial information, with the exception of Appendix 2 which shall be replaced by a summary description of the security measures in those cases where the data subject is unable to obtain a copy from the data exporter;
- that, in the event of subprocessing, it has previously informed the data exporter and obtained its prior written consent;
- that the processing services by the subprocessor will be carried out in accordance with Clause 11;
- to send promptly a copy of any subprocessor agreement it concludes under the Clauses to the data exporter.
Clause 6
Liability
- The parties agree that any data subject, who has suffered damage as a result of any breach of the obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 by any party or subprocessor is entitled to receive compensation from the data exporter for the damage suffered.
- If a data subject is not able to bring a claim for compensation in accordance with paragraph 1 against the data exporter, arising out of a breach by the data importer or his/her subprocessor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11, because the data exporter has factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or has become insolvent, the data importer agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data importer as if it were the data exporter, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter by contract or by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity.
The data importer may not rely on a breach by a subprocessor of its obligations in order to avoid its own liabilities.
- If a data subject is not able to bring a claim against the data exporter or the data importer referred to in Clause 6, paragraphs 1 and 2, arising out of a breach by the subprocessor of any of their obligations referred to in Clause 3 or in Clause 11 because both the data exporter and the data importer have factually disappeared or ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent, the subprocessor agrees that the data subject may issue a claim against the data subprocessor with regard to its own processing operations under the Clauses as if it were the data exporter or the data importer, unless any successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law, in which case the data subject can enforce its rights against such entity. The liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.
Clause 7
Mediation and Jurisdiction
- The data importer agrees that if the data subject invokes against it third-party beneficiary rights and/or claims compensation for damages under the Clauses, the data importer will accept the decision of the data subject:
- to refer the dispute to mediation, by an independent person or, where applicable, by the supervisory authority;
- to refer the dispute to the courts in the Member State in which the data exporter is established.
- The parties agree that the choice made by the data subject will not prejudice its substantive or procedural rights to seek remedies in accordance with other provisions of national or international law.
Clause 8
Cooperation with Supervisory Authorities
- The data exporter agrees to deposit a copy of this contract with the supervisory authority if it so requests or if such deposit is required under the applicable data protection law.
- The parties agree that the supervisory authority has the right to conduct an audit of the data importer, and of any subprocessor, which has the same scope and is subject to the same conditions as would apply to an audit of the data exporter under the applicable data protection law.
- The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter about the existence of legislation applicable to it or any subprocessor preventing the conduct of an audit of the data importer, or any subprocessor, pursuant to paragraph 2. In such a case the data exporter shall be entitled to take the measures foreseen in Clause 5 (b).
Clause 9
Governing Law
The Clauses shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.
Clause 10
Variation of the Contract
The parties may not vary or modify the Clauses unless agreed to in writing and signed by the parties. This does not preclude the parties from adding clauses on business-related issues where required as long as they do not contradict or broaden data importer’s obligations under the Clause.
Clause 11
Subprocessing
- The data importer shall not subcontract any of its processing operations performed on behalf of the data exporter under the Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the subprocessor which imposes the same obligations on the subprocessor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the subprocessor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the subprocessor’s obligations under such agreement.
- The prior written contract between the data importer and the subprocessor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in paragraph 1 of Clause 6 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the subprocessor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.
- The provisions relating to data protection aspects for subprocessing of the contract referred to in paragraph 1 shall be governed by the law of the Member State in which the data exporter is established.
- The data exporter shall keep a list of subprocessing agreements concluded under the Clauses and notified by the data importer pursuant to Clause 5(j), which shall be updated at least once a year. The list shall be available to the data exporter’s data protection supervisory authority.
