Unless Controller otherwise instructs SEON, the notification of such request shall be sent to Controller’s Email Address.

SEON is not responsible or liable for responding to the data subject;

Except for negligible costs, SEON reserves the right to claim the reimbursement of costs and expenses incurred by SEON in connection with the provision of assistance to Controller under this DPA;
(h) to inform and consult with Controller without undue delay in the event that a data protection supervisory authority initiates or takes any action in relation to SEON with regard to the processing of Customer Data; and
(i) to process Customer Data only until the purposes of the processing for which the data was collected have been fulfilled, but in any case, at the latest until 1 year starting from the completion of the query to which Customer Data relate. Upon the expiration of this period, SEON shall delete or anonymize Customer Data, unless it follows from the requirements of European Union law or EU Member State law that SEON is required to store Customer Data for a longer period or unless Controller has instructed SEON otherwise.
AUDIT
4.1 SEON shall facilitate and participate in audits, including inspections, carried out by Controller or by a third party authorised by Controller.

If it is commercially reasonable SEON will review the possibility of finding another, equivalent sub-processor.

5.5 Controller authorizes SEON to engage sub-processors which process Customer Data in a country outside the European Economic Area. Provided that the European Commission has not determined, in accordance with the Data Protection Legislation, that such country ensures an adequate level of protection to the processing of Customer Data, SEON undertakes to provide appropriate safeguards when transferring Customer Data to such sub-processors, in particular, to conclude Standard Contractual Clauses and to take all necessary steps to ensure that the transfer is lawful under the Data Protection Legislation.
PUBLIC DATABASES AND PUBLICLY AVAILABLE PERSONAL DATA
6.1 Controller acknowledges that carrying out real-time queries from public databases and collecting publicly available information from social media providers constitutes an inherent part of certain functionalities of the Services. Controller acknowledges and authorizes SEON to use public database providers (in particular, DNSBL providers, data breach database providers), and social media providers established within or outside the EEA to carry out queries on the basis of Customer Data and collect publicly available personal data to be able to provide the Services to Controller. Parties agree that in their assessment public database providers and social media providers shall be considered data controllers or third parties under the Data Protection Legislation.

Where proportionate in relation to the processing, the above measures shall include the implementation of appropriate data protection policies by Controller.
