TERMS & CONDITIONS FOR USE OF DIRECT ACCESS CRM SOFTWARE

Overview

This is an Agreement for the licence of the Direct Access Customer Engagement Platform (the software) to You by The Company.

The Schedule also contains a list of the rights We are granting You in the Software (“the Rights”) and any restrictions on the Rights. We agree that You can grant the Rights to other people (“Third Parties”) and You agree to make sure they comply with the terms of this Agreement.

In some places, this Agreement talks about both You and Us being “reasonable”. Where that expression is used it means that each of us must behave in the way that an ordinary person unconnected with our businesses would agree was reasonable.

    1. (1) national laws implementing the Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC) and the Directive on Privacy and Electronic Communications (2002/58/EC);

    12. The provisions of Articles 28(3)(b) to 28(3)(h) inclusive of the GDPR shall be incorporated into this agreement by reference and Processor shall comply with the express obligations of a processor as articulated in Articles 28(3)(b) to 28(3)(h) inclusive of the GDPR as so incorporated, provided that Controller may not instruct Processor to delete data that Processor holds on its own behalf as Controller; and (b) the requirements of Article 28(3)(b) of the GDPR shall not apply to persons that Processor is required by applicable laws or regulatory requirements to grant access to Personal Data.

    14. Controller provides a general authorisation to Processor to engage further Processors to process Personal Data upon and subject to the remaining provisions of this agreement. A list of those further Processors (if any) will be available and Processor shall give Controller prior notice of any intended addition to or replacement of those further Processors by updating that list.
