4.             authorized affiliates

(a)           Contractual Relationship. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, by entering into this DPA, you enter into this DPA on behalf of yourself and, as applicable, in the name and on behalf of your Authorized Affiliates, thereby establishing a separate DPA between us and each such Authorized Affiliate subject to the provisions of the Agreement. Each Authorized Affiliate agrees to be bound by the obligations under this DPA and, to the extent applicable, the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, an Authorized Affiliate is not and does not become a party to the Agreement and is only a party to the DPA.

(b)           You also warrant that you maintain accurate and up to date records of your legal basis for processing, including relevant consent flows. If you are relying on "legitimate interest" under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, you warrant that you have balanced your interests against the fundamental rights of the Data Subject and keep records of this process.

(c)            You agree that you will jointly and severally together with any other controller, indemnify and hold harmless us, our Affiliates, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents, on demand from and against all losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising from any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding relating directly or indirectly from your breach of this Clause.

6.             LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

(a)           Each Party's and all of its Affiliates' total liability, taken together in the aggregate, arising out of or related to this DPA, and all DPAs between Authorized Affiliates and us, whether in contract, tort, or under any other theory of liability, is subject to the limitations of liability and disclaimers in the Agreement, including any 'Limitations of Liability' section (however described) of the Agreement, and any reference in such section to the liability of a Party means the aggregate liability of that Party and all of its Affiliates under the Agreement and all DPAs together.

(b)           For the avoidance of doubt, our total liability for all claims from you and all of your Authorized Affiliates arising out of or related to the Agreement and each DPA shall apply in the aggregate for all claims under both the Agreement and all DPAs established hereunder, including by you and all Authorized Affiliates, and, in particular, shall not be understood to apply individually and severally to you and/or to any Authorized Affiliate that is a contractual party to any such DPA.

7.             SEVERANCE

Should any provisions of this DPA be invalid or unenforceable, then the remainder of this DPA shall remain valid and in force. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be either (1) amended as necessary to ensure its validity and enforceability, while preserving the Parties’ intentions as closely as possible or, if this is not possible, (2) constructed in a manner as if the invalid or unenforceable part had never been contained therein.

8.             CHANGES

We may update this DPA at any time by posting an updated version online; provided, however, if there is any material update to how we plan to process your Personal Data under the Agreement, such changes will not take effect until thirty (30) days following the posting of the updated terms.  During such thirty (30) day period, you have the opportunity to object to any such changes by notifying us in writing.  The Parties may either execute a written amendment to the Agreement implementing any agreed upon changes, or you may exercise your right to terminate the Agreement in accordance with the termination provisions thereof. Such termination shall not constitute termination for breach of the Agreement.  We shall have a right to terminate the Agreement if you unreasonably object to any such changes.

9.             TERM

On termination or expiration of the Agreement, this DPA shall survive and continue in full effect until we have returned, destroyed, and/or deleted all of Your Personal Data.
