Data Processing Addendum

This Data Processing Addendum, including its Schedules and Appendices (“DPA”) forms part of the Terms and Conditions or other written or electronic agreement for the purchase of Emburse services (the “Agreement”). This DPA applies to Personal Data processed by Emburse, its wholly owned subsidiaries Certify (UK) Ltd. and Certify Inc., and its Subprocessors in connection with its provision of the Service.

By signing the Agreement, Customer enters into this DPA on behalf of itself and, to the extent required under applicable Data Protection Laws, in the name and on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates, if and to the extent Emburse processes Personal Data for which such Authorized Affiliates qualify as the Controller. For purposes of this DPA only, and except where indicated otherwise, the term “Customer” shall include Customer and Authorized Affiliates. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the Agreement.

If in the course of providing the Services to Customer pursuant to the Agreement, Emburse may Process Personal Data on behalf of Customer and the parties agree to comply with the following provisions with respect to any Personal Data, each acting reasonably and in good faith. For purposes of this DPA, the Emburse entity that is the party to the executed Order Form with Customer is the party to this DPA.

1. Structure

1.1 Appendices 1 and 2 are incorporated into and form part of this DPA. They set out the agreed subject-matter, the nature and purpose of the processing, the type of Personal Data, categories of data subjects and the applicable technical and organizational measures.

1.2 The parties acknowledge and agree that with regard to the Processing of Personal Data, Customer, and those Authorized Affiliates that it permits to use the Service, act as the Controller and Emburse acts as the Processor. Customer shall act as a single point of contact and is solely responsible for obtaining any relevant authorizations, consent, instructions or permissions for the Processing of Personal Data in accordance with this DPA, including, where applicable, approval by Controllers to use Emburse as a Processor. Where authorizations, consent, instructions, or permissions are provided by Customer, these are provided not only on behalf of the Customer but also on behalf of any other Controller using the Service. Where Emburse informs or gives notice to Customer, such information or notice is deemed received by those Controllers permitted by Customer to use the Service. It shall be Customer's responsibility to forward such information and notices to the relevant Controllers.

1.3 Except where applicable Data Protection Laws require the Authorized Affiliate to exercise a right or seek any remedy under this DPA against Emburse directly by itself, the parties agree that: (i) the Customer that is the contracting party to the Agreement shall exercise any such right or seek any such remedy on behalf of the Authorized Affiliate, and (ii) the Customer that is the contracting party to the Agreement shall exercise any such rights under this DPA not separately for each Authorized Affiliate individually but in a combined manner for itself and all of its Authorized Affiliates together.

2. Processing of Personal Data

2.1 Emburse will Process Personal Data on behalf of and only in accordance with Customer's documented instructions. The Agreement (including this DPA) constitutes such documented initial instructions and each use of the Service then constitutes further instructions. Emburse will use reasonable efforts to comply with other documented instructions provided by Customer where such instructions are consistent with the terms of the Agreement, are required by Data Protection Laws and do not require changes to the Service.

2.1.1. If Emburse is unable to comply with an instruction or such instruction infringes Data Protection Laws, in Emburse's reasonable opinion, Emburse shall promptly notify Customer.

2.1.2. Emburse may also Process Personal Data where required to do so by applicable law. In such case, Emburse will inform Customer of that legal requirement unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest.

2.2. Customer shall, in its use of the Services, Process Personal Data in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws, including any applicable requirement to provide notice to Data Subjects of the use of Emburse as Processor. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer's instructions for the Processing of Personal Data shall comply with Data Protection Laws. Customer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, and legality of Personal Data and the means by which Customer acquired Personal Data. Customer specifically acknowledges that its use of the Services will not violate the rights of any Data Subject that has opted-out from disclosures of Personal Data, including the sale of Personal Data under the CCPA.

3. Personnel

Emburse and its Sub-processors shall take reasonable steps to ensure the reliability of any employee, agent or contractor who have access to Personal Data, ensuring in each case that access is strictly limited to those individuals who need to know or have access to the relevant Personal Data. Emburse shall ensure all such individuals are subject to confidentiality undertakings or professional or statutory obligations of confidentiality. Emburse and its Sub-processors will regularly train personnel having access to Personal Data in applicable data security and data privacy measures.

4. Data Subject Rights

Emburse shall, to the extent legally permitted, promptly notify Customer if Emburse receives a request from a Data Subject to exercise the Data Subject's rights of access, rectification, restriction of Processing, erasure (“right to be forgotten”), data portability, or objection to the Processing (each a “Data Subject Request”) without itself responding to such request. Taking into account the nature of the Processing, Emburse shall reasonably cooperate with Customer and Controllers in dealing with Data Subject Requests by appropriate technical and organizational measures, in so far as this is possible.

5. Security

5.1 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, Emburse shall maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures for the protection of the security (including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing and against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration or damage, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Personal Data), confidentiality and integrity of Personal Data, as set forth in Appendix 2, including, as appropriate, the measures referred to in Article 32(1) of the GDPR. Emburse will regularly monitor compliance with these measures.

5.2 Emburse may change the measures set out in Appendix 2 at any time without notice so long as it maintains a comparable or better level of security. Individual measures may be replaced by new measures that serve the same purpose without diminishing the security level protecting Personal Data.

6. Sub-processors

6.1 Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (a) Emburse Affiliates may be retained as Sub-processors; and (b) Emburse and Emburse Affiliates respectively may engage third-party Sub-processors in connection with the provision of the Services.

6.1.1. Any third party Sub-Processors shall be engaged under a written (including electronic form) contract containing data protection obligations no less protective than those in this Agreement with respect to the protection of Personal Data, to the extent applicable to the services provided by such Sub-Processor.

6.1.2. For any Sub-processor, Emburse will carry out adequate due diligence to ensure that the Sub-processor is capable of providing the level of protection for Personal Data required by the Principal Agreement.

6.1.3. Emburse will make available to Customer, upon request, a list of Sub-processors in place on the effective date of the Agreement, including the name, address, and role of each Sub-processor Emburse uses to provide the Service.

6.2 Emburse's use of Sub-Processors is at its discretion, provided that:

6.2.1. Emburse will inform Customer of the appointment of any new Sub-processor in advance (by email or by making such information available on an website accessible to Customer), including full details of the Processing to be undertaken by the Sub-processor.

6.1.2. If, within ten (10) business days of receipt of that notice, Customer notifies Emburse in writing of a legitimate reason under Data Protection Law to object to the proposed appointment, Emburse shall work with Customer in good faith to make available a commercially reasonable change in the provision of the Services which avoids the use of that proposed Subprocessor.

6.1.3. If Emburse is unable to make available such change within a reasonable period of time, which shall not exceed sixty (60) days from receipt of Customer's notice, Customer may terminate the Order Form with respect to the Services which require the use of the proposed Sub-processor by providing written notice to Emburse received no later than ninety (90) days from date of Emburse's notice of such proposed Sub-processor. If Customer does not terminate within such 90-day period, Customer is deemed to have accepted the new Sub-processor. Any termination under this Section 6.2.3 will be without fault by either party and shall be subject to the terms of the Agreement.

6.3 Emburse will be liable for the acts and omissions of its Sub-processors to the same extent Emburse would be liable if performing the services of each Sub-processor directly under the terms of this DPA, except as otherwise set forth in the Agreement.

6.4 Emburse may replace a Sub-processor without advance notice where the reason for such change is outside of Emburse's reasonable control and prompt replacement is required for security or other urgent reasons. In this case, Emburse will inform Customer of the replacement Sub-processor as soon as reasonably practicable following its appointment and 6.2.2 and 6.2.3 will apply.

7. Personal Data Incident Management

7.1 Emburse shall notify Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Company Personal Data, providing Company with sufficient information to allow Company to meet any obligations to report or inform Data Subjects of the Personal Data Breach under the Data Protection Laws.

7.2 Emburse shall co-operate with Company and take such reasonable commercial steps as are directed by Company to assist in the investigation, mitigation and remediation of each such Personal Data Breach.

8. Data Protection Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation

If, pursuant to Data Protection Law, Emburse shall provide reasonable assistance and cooperation to fulfill Controller's obligation to carry out a data protection impact assessment, or prior consultation with a Supervisory Authority, which are required under the GDPR or equivalent provisions of any other Data Protection Law solely in relation to Customer's use of the Service and to the extent Customer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information and such information is available to Emburse.

9. Deletion or return of Personal Data

9.1 Subject to this Section 9, Emburse shall, to the extent allowed by applicable law, promptly and in any event within 90 days of the date of cessation of the Services involving the Processing of Personal Data (the “Cessation Date”), delete and procure the deletion, anonymization or pseudonymization of all copies of such Personal Data. Certification of the destruction as provided in this Section 9 shall be provided upon Customer's request.

9.2 During the term of the Agreement, Customer will have access its Personal Data at any time and can export and retrieve such data in a standard format. Export and retrieval may be subject to technical limitations. If export and retrieval as described in the foregoing is not reasonably possible, Emburse and Customer will find a reasonable method to allow Customer to access the Personal Data. Upon written request to Emburse within 30 days of the Cessation Date, Emburse will permit Customer access to the Services for 30 days the sole purpose of exporting all Personal Data.

9.3 Emburse may retain the Personal Data to the extent and only for such period of time as required by Applicable Laws. Emburse shall ensure the confidentiality of all such Personal Data and shall ensure that such Personal Data is only Processed as necessary for the purpose(s) specified in the Applicable Laws.

10. Certifications and Audits

10.1 Emburse will, upon written request of Customer, make available evidence of its compliance with the technical and organizational measures that protect the Service through third-party certifications and audits as described in the security Documentation.

10.2 Customer, a Controller, or its respective independent third party auditor reasonably acceptable to Emburse, may have a right to audit Emburse's control environment and security practices relevant to the Processing if:

10.2.1 Emburse fails to provide sufficient evidence under Section 10.1;

10.2.2. An audit is requested by Customer's, or a Controller's, relevant data protection authority; or

10.2.3. Data Protection Law provides Customer with a direct audit right, provided any such audit shall only occur once in any twelve (12) month period unless such law requires more frequent audits.

10.3 If a Controller (other than Customer) requests to conduct an audit under section 10.2, such audit must be undertaken by and through Customer unless Data Protection Law requires otherwise. If several Controllers whose Personal Data is processed Emburse under the Agreement require an Audit, Customer shall use all reasonable means to combine the audits and to avoid multiple audits. Customer shall bear the costs of all audits under this Section 10.

10.4 Customer or the relevant Controller undertaking an audit under Section 10.2 shall give Emburse at least 60 days (or such other period as required by Data Protection Law) prior notice of any audit to be conducted under section 10.2. The scope of any audits shall be mutually agreed by the parties acting reasonably and in good faith. Audits shall be limited to 3 days and Customer (or relevant Controller) shall make (and ensure that each of its auditors makes) reasonable endeavours to avoid causing (or, if it cannot avoid, to minimise) any damage, injury or disruption to Emburse premises, equipment, personnel and business in the course of such audit. Customer shall bear the costs of such audit and will provide the results of any audit to Emburse. If an audit determines that Emburse has breached its obligations under the DPA, Emburse will promptly remedy the breach at its own cost.

10.5 To the extent the Standard Contractual Clauses apply to this DPA as set forth in Section 11 below, the parties agree that audits described in Clause 5(f) and Clause 12(2) of the Standard Contractual Clauses shall be carried out in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.

11. Data Transfers

11.1 Personal Data that Emburse processes on Customer's behalf may be transferred to, and stored and processed in, the United States or any other country in which Emburse or its Subprocessors operate. Customer appoints Emburse to perform any such transfer of Customer Data and Personal Data to any such country and to store and process Customer Data and Personal Data to provide the Services. All transfers of Customer Data out of the European Union, European Economic Area, and Switzerland by the Services will be subject to appropriate safeguards as described in Article 46 of the GDPR and such transfers and safeguards will be documented according to Article 30(2) of the GDPR.

Each of the foregoing shall be deemed “data exporter” for the SCCs. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the body of this DPA and any of its Schedules (not including the SCCs) and the SCCs in Schedule 3, the SCCs shall prevail.
