Appendix One
Data Processing Agreement
- The parties agree and acknowledge that the Data Protection Laws apply to the processing of personal data.
- Customer warrants that it has complied with and shall continue to comply with all provisions of the Data Protection Laws, including without limitation, that Customer has provided and will continue to provide the necessary notices to, and obtained and will continue to obtain all necessary consents from, relevant individuals whose personal data Customer provides or makes available to Telana or the Third Party Software Provider for their use in accordance with this Contract.
- For the purposes of the provision of Services and in respect of Customer Personal Data, the parties agree that Customer shall be the controller and Telana shall be a processor. Telana shall comply with its obligations as a processor under the Data Protection Laws.
- If the Data Protection Laws apply to the processing of Customer Personal Data and Customer is a processor, Customer warrants to Telana that Customer’s instructions and actions with respect to that Customer Personal Data, including its appointment of Telana as a sub-processor, has been authorized by the relevant controller.
- For the avoidance of doubt, where Telana procures the grant of a Software licence to the Customer by a Third Party Software Provider, Telana is acting as reseller and is not a service provider and is not a processor under the terms of the Data Protection Laws with respect to any Customer Personal Data held or otherwise processed through use of the Software. In that case, the Third Party Software Provider is the processor. For any personal data that the Customer submits directly to Third Party Software Provider through use of the Software or Services, the Customer acknowledges that the responsibility remains between itself and the Third Party Software Provider for complying with all Data Protection Laws, including with respect to putting in place all documentation as required, regarding the processing, storage and transfer of such personal data. The data processing and security terms governing the processing of such personal data are as set out and agreed between the Customer and the Third Party Software Provider and as may be referred to in the Service Specific Terms.
- Telana shall process Customer Personal Data solely as necessary for Telana to provide the Services, which will be more specifically described in the Order Form; and in accordance with obligations of data processors under the Data Protection Laws, as set out below.
- Customer acknowledges and agrees that, as part of the Services, Telana may provide the Third Party Software Provider with certain data, some of which may contain Customer Personal Data, as follows: (a) contact details for the Customer to allow the Third Party Software Provider to use such details to communicate directly with the Customer for the following purposes: (i) as required to execute any non-standard Customer requests, (ii) for purposes related to the provisioning of the Product(s) to Customers’ accounts, including in relation to any Product updates or security incidents; (iii) as required to ensure Customers are notified of available options to maintain continuity in Product provisioning; (iv) to conduct customer service and satisfaction surveys; and (v) to inform Customers about new or additional products related to the Product(s) Customers are using; (b) usage reports as requested by the Third Party Software Provider, comprising Customer company name, project IDs associated with the Customer, and country of Customer headquarters and postal code; and (c) as reasonably required for the Third Party Software Provider to provide technical support to Telana in connection with the Customer’s support issues regarding the Product.
- Telana will process Customer Personal Data only in accordance with Customer’s documented instructions as set out in this Appendix One and in the Order Form as updated in writing from time to time.
- Telana will implement and maintain appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect Customer Personal Data against accidental loss, destruction of or damage to Customer Personal Data, such measures to be appropriate to the harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accident loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures (“Security Measures”). Telana 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 Customer Personal Data.
- Telana will take appropriate steps to ensure security of processing by its employees, contractors and sub-processors to the extent applicable to their scope of performance, including ensuring that all persons authorized to process Customer Personal Data have entered into written obligations of confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.
- Sub-processors. Customer authorises Telana to appoint sub-processors where the sub-processor is capable of providing the level of protection for Customer Personal Data required by this Contract and the processing is governed by a written contract including terms which offer at least the same level of protection for Customer Personal Data as those set out in this Contract and meet the requirements of article 28(3) of the GDPR; and any Transfer Solution. A list of current sub-processors are at www.telana.com/subprocessors. Customer consents to Telana engaging such sub-processors provided that Telana:
11.1. provides to Customer details of any new sub-processor appointed during the lifetime of the Contract;
11.2. notifies Customer in advance of any change in a sub-processor. Customer may object to any change in the sub-processor and in such circumstances Telana shall be entitled to address the objection through one of the following options at its sole discretion:
11.2.1. cease to use the relevant sub-processor;
11.2.2. take steps suggested by Customer to address the objection; and
11.2.3. cease to provide the particular Services which involve the relevant sub-processor.
- Data Subject Requests. If Telana receives a Data Subject Request in relation to Customer Personal Data, Telana will promptly refer it to Customer, and Customer will be responsible for handling the Data Subject Request at Customer’s cost. Telana will provide assistance to Customer in fulfilling any obligation to respond to Data Subject Requests in accordance with its obligations under Data Protection Laws taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to Telana;
- Data Deletion and Data Export. Unless otherwise required by law, Telana will either delete or return all personal data to Customer at the termination or expiry of the Contract. If Customer requests the return of Customer Personal Data, Telana may charge a fee (based on Telana’ reasonable costs) for any data export if such costs are not specifically provided for in the Contract. Telana will provide Customer with further details of any applicable fee, and the basis of its calculation, in advance of any such review or audit.
- Data Protection Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation. Telana will at the cost of Customer provide assistance to Customer with any data protection impact assessments, and prior consultations with Supervising Authorities or other competent data privacy authorities, which Customer reasonably considers to be required in accordance with Data Protection Laws, in each case solely in relation to processing of Company Personal Data by, and taking into account the nature of the processing and information available to, Telana.
- Audits. Telana will allow Customer or an independent auditor appointed by Customer to conduct audits (including inspections) to verify Telana’ compliance with its obligations under this Appendix One. Telana may charge a fee (based on Telana’ reasonable costs) for any audit. Telana will provide Customer with further details of any applicable fee, and the basis of its calculation, in advance of any such review or audit. Customer will be responsible for any fees charged by any third party appointed by Customer to execute any such audit.
- Data Incidents.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that (taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing of Customer Personal Data as well as the risks to individuals) the Security Measures implemented and maintained by Telana provide a level of security appropriate to the risk in respect of the Customer Data.
