Appendix 1: Subject Matter and Details of the Data Processing

1. Subject Matter: Vendor’s provision of the Service and Support to Customer.

2. Duration of the Processing: The Term plus the period from the expiry of the Term until deletion of all Customer Data by Vendor in accordance with the Terms.

3. Nature and Purpose of the Processing: Vendor will process Customer Personal Data for the purposes of providing the Service and Support to Customer in accordance with the Agreement, including this Addendum.

4. Categories of Data: Data relating to individuals provided to Vendor via the Service, by (or at the direction of) Customer.

5. Data Subjects: Data subjects include the individuals about whom data is provided to Vendor via the Service by (or at the direction of) Customer.

Appendix 2: Security Measures

As from the Terms Effective Date, Vendor will implement and maintain the Security Measures described in this Appendix 2.

1. Data Access and Storage

1.1 Access Controls. Customer’s administrators and end Users must authenticate themselves via a central authentication system or via a single sign on system to use the Service.

1.2 Encryption. Vendor makes encryption available.

1.3 Storage and Sharing. Vendor stores data in a multi-tenant environment. Subject to any Customer instructions to the contrary, Vendor replicates Customer Data between multiple geographically dispersed data centers. Vendor also logically isolates Customer Data, and logically separates each end user’s data from the data of other end users, and data for an authenticated end user will not be displayed to another end user (unless the former end user or an administrator allows the data to be shared). Customer will be given control over specific data sharing policies. Those policies, in accordance with the functionality of the Service, will enable Customer to determine the product sharing settings applicable to end users for specific purposes.

1.4 Network.

1.4.1 Data Transmission. Vendor transfers data via Internet standard protocols.

1.4.2 External Attack Surface. Vendor employs multiple layers of network devices and intrusion detection to protect its external attack surface. Vendor considers potential attack vectors and incorporates appropriate purpose built technologies into external facing systems.

Intrusion Detection. Intrusion detection is intended to provide insight into ongoing attack activities and provide adequate information to respond to incidents. Vendor’s intrusion detection involves:

  1. tightly controlling the size and make-up of Vendor’s attack surface through preventative measures;
  2. employing intelligent detection controls at data entry points; and
  3. employing technologies that automatically remedy certain dangerous situations.

1.5 Incident Response. Vendor monitors a variety of communication channels for security incidents, and Vendor’s security personnel will react promptly to known incidents

2. Personnel

2.1 Infrastructure Security Personnel. Vendor has, and maintains, a security policy for its personnel, and requires security training as part of the training package for its personnel. Vendor’s infrastructure security personnel are responsible for the ongoing monitoring of Vendor’s security infrastructure, the review of the Service, and responding to security incidents.

2.3 Vendor Personnel. Vendor personnel are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the company’s guidelines regarding confidentiality, business ethics, appropriate usage, and professional standards. Vendor conducts reasonably appropriate backgrounds checks to the extent legally permissible and in accordance with applicable local labor law and statutory regulations. Personnel are required to execute a confidentiality agreement and must acknowledge receipt of, and compliance with, Vendor’s confidentiality and privacy policies. Personnel are provided with security training. Personnel handling Customer Data are required to complete additional requirements appropriate to their role (e.g., certifications). Vendor’s personnel will not process Customer Data without authorization.

2.2 Internal Data Access Processes and Policies – Access Policy. Vendor’s internal data access processes and policies are designed to prevent unauthorized persons and/or systems from gaining access to systems used to process personal data. Vendor designs its systems to: (i) only allow authorized persons to access data they are authorized to access; and (ii) ensure that personal data cannot be read, copied, altered or removed without authorization during processing, use and after recording. The systems are designed to detect any inappropriate access. Vendor employs a centralized access management system to control personnel access to production servers, and only provides access to a limited number of authorized personnel. Vendor’s authentication and authorization systems are designed to provide Vendor with secure and flexible access mechanisms. These mechanisms are designed to grant only approved access rights to site hosts, logs, data and configuration information. Vendor requires the use of unique user IDs, strong passwords, two factor authentication and carefully monitored access lists to minimize the potential for unauthorized account use. The granting or modification of access rights is based on: the authorized personnel’s job responsibilities; job duty requirements necessary to perform authorized tasks; and a need to know basis. The granting or modification of access rights must also be in accordance with Vendor’s internal data access policies and training. Approvals are managed by workflow tools that maintain audit records of all changes. Access to systems is logged to create an audit trail for accountability. Where passwords are employed for authentication (e.g., login to workstations), password policies that follow at least industry standard practices are implemented. These standards include restrictions on password reuse and sufficient password strength.

3. Physical Security

The Service may be hosted in public cloud environments. However, whether the Service is hosted in a public cloud environment or otherwise, Vendor ensures that the data centers where the Service is hosted maintain at least the following standards and controls:

3.1 Site Access Control and Monitoring. Physical access to data center locations are managed by electronic access control devices. The access control system for the data center includes procedures to monitor, and investigate as appropriate, unauthorized activity and failed access attempts. The data centers are housed in facilities that have alarms that are linked to the on-site security operation.

3.2 CCTV. The data centers facilities make use of CCTV cameras that are monitored by the on-site security operation personnel. On-site security operation personnel perform internal and external patrols of the data center regularly. The surveillance records are retained for up to 30 days based on activity.

3.3 Environmental and power. The data center electrical power systems are designed to be redundant and maintainable without impact to continuous operations, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Infrastructure systems have been designed to eliminate single points of failure and minimize the impact of anticipated environmental risks. All environmental equipment and facilities have documented preventative maintenance procedures that detail the process for and frequency of performance in accordance with the manufacturer’s or internal specifications.

3.4 Disk policy. There is a policy around data destruction for disks containing data.

4. Subprocessor Security

Before onboarding Subprocessors, Vendor conducts an audit of the security and privacy practices of Subprocessors to ensure Subprocessors provide a level of security and privacy appropriate to their access to data and the scope of the services they are engaged to provide. Once Vendor has assessed the risks presented by the Subprocessor, then subject to the requirements described in Section 10.2 (Requirements for Subprocessor Engagement) of this Data Processing Addendum, the Subprocessor is required to enter into appropriate security, confidentiality and privacy contract terms.

5. Business Continuity

Vendor has designed and regularly plans and tests its business continuity planning/disaster recovery programs.
