the Data Controller (or the persons authorised by the latter) decides to enter into
the DataKnowl platform or, in general, into the Services provided by Complexity Intelligence
LLC are owned of the Controller himself. In the case of the entry of special and sensitive
personal data, it is the accountability of the Controller to demonstrate that he has
acquired the explicit consent to their processing.
d) The Data Controller determines the purposes and means of the processing of the
personal data.
e) The Data Controller may have recourse to a natural or legal person, public authority,
agency or other body as a Data Processor provided that the latter provides sufficient
guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures in such
a manner that processing will meet the requirements of the GDPR Regulation and ensure
the protection of the rights of the data subject.
f) The Data Processor must process personal data only on documented instructions from
the Data Controller; the processing is governed by this agreement or by any subsequent
agreements.
g) The Data Controller allows the Data Processor and the persons authorised by the
latter to access only personal data whose knowledge is necessary for the performance
of their duties.
ALL OF THIS PREMISED,
1) The Customer, as Data Controller, in the person of its legal representative, designates
Complexity Intelligence LLC as Data Processor of personal data (hereinafter also "Data
Processor" or simply "Processor") exclusively in relation to the processing of personal
data carried out for the provision of the Services subscribed by the Controller.
2) The processing of personal data will be carried out for the sole purpose of guaranteeing
the full execution of the Services provided by the Data Processor. Any requests by
the Controller to extend the processing operations to activities that are not compatible
with the nature of the Services offered by the Processor are excluded.
3) The Data Processor, pursuant to this agreement, and 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, shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures
to ensure
a level of security appropriate to the risk. Inter alia, the Data Processor undertakes
to:
a. Adopt preventive security measures to eliminate or minimize any risk of accidental
or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to
personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed.
b. Process the data exclusively for the purposes related to the performance of the
activity covered by the contract signed by the Data Controller and necessary for the
correct execution of the Services. The Processor, therefore, does not perform any
other type of processing that is not relevant to the purpose of the Services offered.
c. Ensure the confidentiality of information, documents and, in general, of all
the material that comes to its knowledge during the execution of the contract for
the provision of the Services.
d. Keep the data for no longer than is necessary for the execution of the Services
subscribed by the Data Controller and in any case no later than the terms of the law
or the period indicated by the Data Controller.
e. makes available to the Controller all information necessary to demonstrate compliance
with the GDPR obligations.
4) In relation to the technical and organisational measures to be taken to guarantee
an adequate level of security, the Processor undertakes to implement, as appropriate:
a. The pseudonymisation and encryption of personal data;
b. The ability to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and
resilience of processing systems and services;
c. The ability to restore the availability and access to personal data in a timely
manner in the event of a physical or technical incident.
For a complete and updated view of the security measures adopted, the Data Processor
provides a specific section on the DataKnowl website (https://www.dataknowl.com).
5) The Processor commits that it has implemented the procedure to control and identify
unauthorised or illegal access or use of personal data. This includes regular testing,
assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational measures
for ensuring the security of the processing on an ongoing basis.
6) In the case of a personal data breach, the Processor, after having become aware
of it, shall notify the Controller, without undue delay. The Processor proceeds to
send the notification of data breach following the procedures established by current
legislation, collaborating closely with the Data Controller and with the competent
Supervisory Authorities. The notification shall at least:
a) describe the nature of the personal data breach including where possible, the
categories and approximate number of data subjects concerned and the categories and
approximate number of personal data records concerned;
b) communicate the name and contact details of the data protection officer or other
contact point where more information can be obtained;
c) describe the likely consequences of the personal data breach;
d) describe the measures taken or proposed to be taken by the controller to address
the personal data breach, including, where appropriate, measures
to mitigate its possible adverse effects.

ensuring compliance with the obligations deriving from the carrying out of data protection
impact assessments.
8) In relation to organisational measures, the Data Processor proceeds to:
a. Identify, within his company structure; the persons authorised to process personal
data.
b. provide authorised persons with written instructions regarding the operations
to be carried out in order for data to be processed in accordance with the law;
c. monitor the correct observance of the instructions given;
d. monitor that the access to the data is allowed only to authorised persons or
to authorised automatic systems for purposes related to the provision of the Services.
At the level of electronic processing, access to data is:

iii. role-based;
iv. subject to periodic verification
based on the principle of separation of tasks. It is also applied the time-out of
inactive sessions and the blocking of accounts after multiple attempts to access.
At the level of paper processing, the Processor undertakes to verify that the persons
authorised to process data keep paper documents, containing personal data, in containers
and premises equipped with security and monitoring systems.
e. ensures that persons authorised to process the personal data have committed themselves
to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.
f. train their employees on security and data protection.
9) With this Agreement, the Controller confers general written authorisation to the
Data Processor to be able to use any other data processors ("sub-processors") for
the esecution of specific activities of the Services. These sub-processors are selected
from subjects who, due to their skills, experience and reliability, provide sufficient
guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in such
a manner that processing will meet the requirements of GDPR Regulation. The same data
protection obligations as set out in the contract or other legal act between the Controller
and the Processor are be imposed on that other processor by way of a contract or other
legal act under Union or Member State law. Where a sub-processor fails to fulfil
its data protection obligations,
The Processor remains fully liable to the Controller for the performance of that
other sub-processor's obligations.
10) The Data Controller accepts that the Data Manager may use sub-managers established
in third countries outside the European Union for which the European Commission has
issued an opinion of adequacy and which ensures an adequate level of protection. In
the case of data transfer from the European Union to the United States of America,
the Controller may rely on the certification "EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework ".
11) In relation to the monitoring of the application of the current legislation on
data protection, the Data Processor:
a. Makes available to the Controller, on simply request, all information necessary
to demonstrate compliance with the GDPR Regulation;
b. Promptly notify the Data Controller if receives requests from data subjects,
inspections by the Supervisory Authority or the Judicial Authority regarding the data
processing. In the case of data subjects’ requests, the Processor will promptly notify
the Controller in writing allowing them:
i. Provide the data subject, where applicable, with personal data concerning
him or her, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
ii. Guarantee the data subject, where applicable, the right to erasure and restriction
of processing.
12) On termination, for any reason, of the contract signed by the parties for the
provision of the Services or, at an earlier time, at the choice of the Controller,
the Processor must:
a. Return all the personal data to the Controller; or
b. Delete all the personal data, and delete existing copies unless European Union
or Member State law requires storage of the personal data.
13) The Data Processor assignment will be valid for the time necessary for the provision
of the Services signed by the Data Controller. If, for any reason whatsoever, the
relationship between the Controller and the Processor is no longer valid, or if the
Services are no longer provided, this contract will immediately cease to exist without
the need for communication and revocation and the Data Processor will automatically
terminate the processing of the data on behalf of the Data Controller.
This Agreement intends to cancel and replace any other contract or part of the contract
between the Data Controller and the Data Processor regarding the processing of personal
data.
