2. Scope and Applicability of this DPA

2.1 Application
This DPA applies where and only to the extent that Traffic Armor processes Personal Data on behalf of the Customer in the course of providing the Services and such Personal Data is subject to Data Protection Laws of the European Union, the European Economic Area and/or their member states, Switzerland and/or the United Kingdom. The parties agree to comply with the terms and conditions in this DPA in connection with such Personal Data.

2.2 Role of the Parties
As between Traffic Armor and Customer, Customer is the Controller of Personal Data and Traffic Armor shall process Personal Data only as a Processor on behalf of Customer. Nothing in the Terms or this DPA shall prevent Traffic Armor from using or sharing any data that Traffic Armor would otherwise collect and process independently of Customer's use of the Services.

2.3 Customer Obligations
Customer agrees that (i) it shall comply with its obligations as a Controller under Data Protection Laws in respect of its processing of Personal Data and any processing instructions it issues to Traffic Armor; and (ii) it has provided notice and obtained (or shall obtain) all consents and rights necessary under Data Protection Laws for Traffic Armor to process Personal Data and provide the Services pursuant to the Terms and this DPA.

2.4 Traffic Armor Processing of Personal Data
As a Processor, Traffic Armor shall process Personal Data only for the following purposes: (i) processing to perform the Services in accordance with the Terms; (ii) processing to perform any steps necessary for the performance of the Terms; and (iii) to comply with other reasonable instructions provided by Customer to the extent they are consistent with the terms of this Terms and only in accordance with Customer's documented lawful instructions. The parties agree that this DPA and the Terms set out the Customer's complete and final instructions to Traffic Armor in relation to the processing of Personal Data and processing outside the scope of these instructions (if any) shall require prior written agreement between Customer and Traffic Armor.

2.5 Nature of the Data
Traffic Armor handles Customer Data provided by Customer. Such Customer Data may contain special categories of data depending on how the Services are used by Customer. The Customer Data may be subject to the following process activities: (i) storage and other processing necessary to provide, maintain and improve the Services provided to Customer; (ii) to provide customer and technical support to Customer; and (iii) disclosures as required by law or otherwise set forth in the Terms.

2.6 Traffic Armor Data
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Terms (including this DPA), Customer acknowledges that Traffic Armor shall have a right to use and disclose data relating to and/or obtained in connection with the operation, support and/or use of the Services for its legitimate business purposes, such as billing, account management, technical support, product development and sales and marketing. To the extent any such data is considered personal data under Data Protection Laws, Traffic Armor is the Controller of such data and accordingly shall process such data in compliance with Data Protection Laws.

3. Sub-processing

Traffic Armor uses certain third party sub-processors, subcontractors and content delivery networks to assist it in providing the Services as described in the Terms.

Prior to engaging any third party sub-processor, Traffic Armor performs diligence to evaluate their privacy, security and confidentiality practices, and executes an agreement implementing its applicable obligations.

3.1 Authorized Sub-processors
Customer agrees that Traffic Armor may engage Sub-processors to process Personal Data on Customer's behalf. A list of Sub-processors engaged by Traffic Armor is available on request.

3.2 Sub-processor Obligations
Traffic Armor shall: (i) enter into a written agreement with the Sub-processor imposing data protection terms that require the Sub-processor to protect the Personal Data to the standard required by Data Protection Laws; and (ii) remain responsible for its compliance with the obligations of this DPA and for any acts or omissions of the Sub-processor that cause Traffic Armor to breach any of its obligations under this DPA.

3.3 Changes to Sub-processors
Traffic Armor shall provide the Customer with reasonable advance notice (via email or other means) if it adds or removed Sub-processors.

3.4 Objection to Sub-processors
Customer may object in writing to Traffic Armor's appointment of a new Sub-processor on reasonable grounds relating to data protection by notifying Traffic Armor. Such notice shall explain the reasonable grounds for the objection. In such event, the parties shall discuss such concerns in good faith with a view to achieving a commercially reasonable resolution. If this is not possible, either party may terminate the applicable Services that cannot be provided by Traffic Armor without the use of the objected-to-new Sub-processor.

4. Security

4.1 Security Measures
Traffic Armor shall maintain and implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures in order to protect Personal Data from Security Incidents and to preserve the security and confidentiality of the Personal Data. A breakdown of these security measures is available on request.

4.2 Confidentiality of Processing
Traffic Armor shall ensure that any person who is authorized by Traffic Armor to process Personal Data (including its staff, agents and sub-contractors) shall be under an appropriate obligation of confidentiality (whether a contractual or statutory duty).

4.3 Security Incident Response
Upon becoming aware of a Security Incident, Traffic Armor shall notify Customer without undue delay and shall provide timely information relating to the Security Incident as it becomes known or as is reasonably requested by Customer.

4.4 Updates to Security Measures
Customer acknowledges that the Security Measures are subject to technical progress and development and that Traffic Armor may update or modify the Security Measures from time to time provided that such updates and modifications do not result in the degradation of the overall security of the Services purchased by the Customer.

5. Security Reports and Audits

5.1. Security Documentation
Traffic Armor shall maintain records of its security standards. Upon Customer's written request, Traffic Armor shall provide (on a confidential basis) copies of relevant external certifications, audit report summaries and/or other documentation reasonably required by Customer to verify Traffic Armor's compliance with this DPA. Traffic Armor shall further provide written responses (on a confidential basis) to all reasonable requests for information made by Customer, including responses to information security and audit questionnaires, that Customer (acting reasonably) considers necessary to confirm Traffic Armor's compliance with this DPA, provided that Customer shall not exercise this right more than once per year.

6. International Transfers

6.1 Processing Locations
Traffic Armor stores and processes Personal Data under this DPA from the European Union, the European Economic Area and/or their member states and Switzerland ("EU Data") in data centers located outside the European Union. Traffic Armor shall implement appropriate safeguards to protect the Personal Data, wherever it is processed, in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws.

7. Return or Deletion of Data

7.1 Data Retention
Upon deactivation of the Services, all Personal Data shall be deleted after the Data Retention period stipulated in the Terms, save that this requirement shall not apply to the extent Traffic Armor is required by applicable law to retain some or all of the Personal Data, or to Personal Data it has archived on back-up systems, which such Personal Data Traffic Armor shall securely isolate and protect from any further processing, except to the extent required by applicable law.

8. Cooperation

8.1 Reasonable Cooperation
To the extent that Customer is unable to independently access the relevant Personal Data within the Services, Traffic Armor shall (at Customer's expense) taking into account the nature of the processing, provide reasonable cooperation to assist Customer by appropriate technical and organizational measures, in so far as is possible, to respond to any requests from individuals or applicable data protection authorities relating to the processing of Personal Data under the Terms. In the event that any such request is made directly to Traffic Armor, Traffic Armor shall not respond to such communication directly without Customer's prior authorization, unless legally compelled to do so. If Traffic Armor is required to respond to such a request, Traffic Armor shall promptly notify Customer and provide it with a copy of the request unless legally prohibited from doing so.

8.2 Data Protection Authority
To the extent Traffic Armor is required under Data Protection Law, Traffic Armor shall (at Customer's expense) provide reasonably requested information regarding Traffic Armor's processing of Personal Data under the Terms to enable the Customer to carry out data protection impact assessments or prior consultations with data protection authorities as required by law.
