2.2 Role of the Parties. As between us and you, you are the Controller of Personal Data and we shall process Personal Data only as a Processor on behalf of you. Nothing in the Agreement or this DPA shall prevent us from using or sharing any data that we would otherwise collect and process independently of your use of the Services.
2.3 Our Processing of Personal Data. As a Processor, we shall process Personal Data only for the following purposes:
(a) processing to perform the Services in accordance with the Agreement;
(b) processing to perform any steps necessary for the performance of the Agreement; and
(c) to comply with other reasonable instructions provided by you to the extent they are consistent with the terms of this DPA and only in accordance with your documented lawful instructions. The parties agree that this DPA and the Agreement set out your complete and final instructions to us in relation to the processing of Personal Data and processing outside the scope of these instructions (if any) shall require prior written agreement between you and us.
2.4 Nature of the Data. We handle Customer Data provided by you. Such Customer Data may contain special categories of data depending on how the Services are used by you. The Customer Data may be subject to the following process activities:
(a) storage and other processing necessary to provide, maintain and improve the Services provided to you;
(b) to provide customer and technical support to you; and
(c) disclosures as required by law or otherwise set forth in the Agreement.
2.5 Sprint Data. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement (including this DPA), you acknowledge that we 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 our 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 Legislation, we are the Controller of such data and accordingly shall process such data in compliance with Data Protection Legislation.
2.6 Customer Obligations. You agree that:
(a) you shall comply with your obligations as a Controller under Data Protection Legislation in respect of your processing of Personal Data and any processing instructions you issue to us; and
(b) you have provided notice and obtained (or shall obtain) all consents and rights necessary under Data Protection Legislation for us to process Personal Data and provide the Services pursuant to the Agreement and this DPA.
2.7 The provisions of this DPA supersede any other arrangement, understanding, or agreement made between you and us at any time relating to the Personal Data.
2.8 This DPA shall continue in full force and effect for so long as we are processing Personal Data on behalf of you.
3. DATA PROTECTION COMPLIANCE
3.1 All instructions given by you to us shall be made in writing and shall at all times comply with the Data Protection Legislation and other applicable laws. We shall act only on such written instructions from you unless we are required by law to do otherwise (as per Article 29 of the UK GDPR). We shall promptly notify you if, in our opinion, your instructions do not comply with the Data Protection Legislation.
3.2 We shall promptly comply with any request from you requiring us to amend, transfer, delete, or otherwise process the Personal Data, or to stop, mitigate or remedy any unauthorised processing.
3.3 We shall transfer all Personal Data to you on your request in the formats, at the times, and in compliance with your written instructions.
3.4 We will maintain the confidentiality of the Personal Data and will not disclose the Personal Data to third parties unless you or this Agreement specifically authorises the disclosure, or as required by domestic or EU law, court or regulator (including the ICO). If a domestic or EU law, court or regulator (including the ICO) requires us to process or disclose the Personal Data to a third-party, we will first inform you of such legal or regulatory requirement and give you an opportunity to object or challenge the requirement, unless the domestic or EU law prohibits the giving of such notice.
3.5 Both Parties shall comply at all times with the Data Protection Legislation and other applicable laws and shall not perform their obligations under this DPA or any other agreement or arrangement between themselves in such way as to cause either Party to breach any of its applicable obligations under the Data Protection Legislation.
3.6 We hereby warrant, represent, and undertake that the Personal Data shall comply with the Data Protection Legislation in all respects including, but not limited to, its collection, holding, and processing.
3.7 We agree to comply with any reasonable measures required by you to ensure your obligations under this DPA are satisfactorily performed in accordance with any and all applicable legislation from time to time in force and any best practice guidance issued by the ICO.
3.8 We shall provide all reasonable assistance (at your cost) to you in complying with your obligations under the Data Protection Legislation with respect to the security of processing, the notification of personal data breaches, the conduct of data protection impact assessments, and in dealings with the ICO.
3.9 When processing the Personal Data on behalf of you, we shall:
(a) procure that any Sub-Processor shall not transfer or otherwise process the Personal Data outside the UK or, the European Economic Area (“EEA”) without obtaining your prior written consent. Where such consent is granted, we may only process, or permit the processing, of the Personal Data outside the EEA under the following conditions:
(i) we are processing the Personal Data in a territory which is subject to adequacy regulations under the Data Protection Legislation that the territory provides adequate protection for the privacy rights of individuals. We must identify in Schedule 2 the territory that is subject to such adequacy regulations; or
(ii) we participate in a valid cross-border transfer mechanism under the Data Protection Legislation, so that we (and, where appropriate, you) can ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to ensure an adequate level of protection with respect to the privacy rights of individuals as required by Article 46 of the UK GDPR and EU GDPR. We must identify in Schedule 2 the transfer mechanism that enables the parties to comply with these cross-border data transfer provisions and we must immediately inform you of any change to that status; or
(iii) the transfer otherwise complies with the Data Protection Legislation for the reasons set out in Schedule 2.
(b) not transfer any of the Personal Data to any third party without your written consent and, in the event of such consent, the Personal Data shall be transferred strictly subject to the terms of a suitable agreement;
(c) process the Personal Data only to the extent, and in such manner, as is necessary in order to comply with our obligations to you or as may be required by law (in which case, we shall inform you of the legal requirement in question before processing the Personal Data for that purpose unless prohibited from doing so by law);
(d) implement appropriate technical and organisational measures, and take all steps necessary to protect the Personal Data against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction, damage, alteration, or disclosure;
(e) if so requested by you, supply further details of the technical and organisational systems in place to safeguard the security of the Personal Data held and to prevent unauthorised access;
(f) keep records of all processing activities carried out on the Personal Data in accordance with the requirements of Article 30(2) of the UK GDPR and EU GDPR;
(g) make available to you any and all such information as is reasonably required and necessary to demonstrate our compliance with the applicable Data Protection Legislation;
(h) on reasonable prior notice, submit to audits and inspections and provide you with any information reasonably required in order to assess and verify compliance with the provisions of this DPA and both Parties' compliance with the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation. The requirement to give notice will not apply if we believe that you are in breach of any of your obligations under this DPA or under the law; and
(i) inform you immediately if we are asked to do anything that infringes the Data Protection Legislation.
4. DATA SUBJECT ACCESS, COMPLAINTS, AND BREACHES
4.1 We shall, at your cost, assist you in complying with your obligations under the Data Protection Legislation. In particular, the following shall apply to data subject access requests, complaints, and data breaches.

5. SECURITY
5.1 We shall ensure that, in respect of all Personal Data we receive from or processes on behalf of you, we maintain security measures to a standard appropriate to:
(a) the harm that might result from unlawful or unauthorised processing or accidental loss, damage, or destruction of the Personal Data; and
(b) the nature of the Personal Data.
