The Customer unconditionally assumes all risks associated with the Services pursuant to the Agreement and has voluntarily assumed these risks with a full and unconditional indemnification in favour of Logimeter against financial loss or reputational harm resulting from any Personal Data Security Breach which may occur in course of providing the Services. This indemnification will not apply in the case of any Personal Data Breach which is caused directly by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Logimeter.
Sub-Processors and Third-Party Hosting
Logimeter is entitled to engage sub-Processors to fulfil its obligations defined in the Agreement only with Customer’s written consent. For these purposes, Customer consents to the engagement as sub-Processors of Logimeter’s Affiliates and the third parties listed in Appendix 2. For the avoidance of doubt, the above authorisation constitutes the Customer’s prior written consent to sub-Processing by Logimeter.
The Customer acknowledges and understands that in certain instances Logimeter may contract with a third-party hosting service provider (“Hosting Service Provider”) in order to host the Customer’s data, including Personal Data pursuant to the Agreement (“Hosting Services”). As such, the terms of service of the Hosting Service Provider are applicable and are supplementary to the terms of the Agreement.
The Customer indemnifies and holds Logimeter harmless against all losses it may suffer or actions against us as a result of:
the use of the Hosting Services, or any downtime, outage, degradation of the network, interruption in or unavailability of the Hosting Services. This includes software or hardware service, repairs, maintenance, upgrades, modification, alterations, replacement, or relocation of premises affecting the Hosting Services;
non-performance or unavailability of any of the Hosting Services given by an electronic communications network or service provider, including, line failure, or in any international services or remote mail servers;
non-performance or unavailability of external communications networks to which the Hosting Service Provider or the Logimeter network infrastructure is connected, and
repairs, maintenance, upgrades, modifications, alterations, or replacement of any hardware forming part of the Services, or any faults or defects in the hardware.
If Logimeter intends to instruct sub-Processors other than the companies listed in Appendix 2, the Company will notify the Customer in writing (email to the email address(es) on record in Logimeter ’s account information for the Customer is sufficient) and will give the Customer the opportunity to object to the engagement of the new sub-Processors within 30 (thirty) days of being notified, failing which Logimeter will be entitled to appoint the sub-Processor. The objection must be based on reasonable grounds (e.g., if the Customer proves that significant risks to the protection of its Personal Data exist at the sub-Processor). If Logimeter and Customer are unable to resolve such objections, either party may terminate the Agreement in accordance with its provisions relating to termination.
Where Logimeter engages sub-Processors, Logimeter will enter into a contract with the sub-Processor that imposes on the sub-Processor the same obligations that apply to Logimeter and the Controller/ Responsible Party under this DPA.
Where a sub-Processor is engaged, the Customer must be granted the right to monitor and inspect the sub-Processor’s activities in accordance with this DPA and the Data Protection Legislation, including to obtain information from Logimeter, upon written request, on the substance of the contract and the implementation of the data protection obligations under the sub-Processing contract, where necessary, by inspecting the relevant contract documents.
The provisions of this section shall mutually apply if Logimeter engages a sub-Processor in a country not recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data. If, in the performance of this DPA, Logimeter transfers any Personal Data to a sub-Processor in a third country without adequate data protection, Logimeter shall, in advance of any such transfer, ensure that it with execute Standard Contractual Clauses to achieve adequacy in respect of that Processing is in place.
Deletion or Retrieval of Personal Data:
Other than to the extent required to comply with Data Protection Legislation, following termination or expiry of the Agreement, Logimeter will delete all Personal Data (including copies thereof) processed pursuant to this DPA. If Logimeter is unable to delete Personal Data for technical or other reasons, Logimeter will apply measures to ensure that Personal Data is blocked from any further Processing. The Customer shall, upon termination or expiration of the Agreement and by way of issuing an instruction, stipulate, within a period of time set by Logimeter, the reasonable measures to return Personal Data. Any additional cost arising in connection with the return or deletion of Personal Data shall be borne by the Customer.
The Customer shall provide a comprehensive retention schedule for all Personal Data prior to commencement of Processing.

For such purpose, the parties may:
obtain information from each other,
request an attestation or certificate by an independent professional expert, or
upon reasonable and timely advance agreement, during regular business hours and without interrupting business operations, conduct an on-site inspection of the business operations or have the same conducted by a qualified third party which shall not be a competitor of either party.
