  1. SERVICE DESCRIPTION

The CLIENT entrusts DATA PROCESSOR with the hosting of the Data necessary to provide the operations on the Personal Data specified in the Contract.

The CLIENT agrees that DATA PROCESSOR will use a certified health data host (the "Host").

  1. SUBSEQUENT DATA PROCESSING

The subsequent data processor(s) shall be responsible for fulfilling the obligations of the Contract including the obligations on behalf of and as directed by the CLIENT.

It is the responsibility of the DATA PROCESSOR to ensure that the subsequent data processor(s) provide the same sufficient guarantees regarding the implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures in order for the hosting to meet the requirements of the French Public Health Code and similar applicable local laws. If the subsequent data processor(s) fail to meet their data protection obligations, the DATA PROCESSOR shall remain fully liable to the CLIENT and to the DATA CONTROLLER for the subsequent data processor(s) performance of their obligations.

The CLIENT already authorizes the use of GOOGLE Ireland as a subsequent DATA PROCESSOR for the provision of health data hosting services within the meaning of Article L 1111-8 of the French Public Health Code for the 6 levels of service.

The DATA PROCESSOR may add or replace a subsequent data processor. In this case, he undertakes to inform the CLIENT by the means of his choice. The CLIENT will then have a period of ten (10) calendar days from the notification to present its objections on a valid reason relating to the protection of Personal Data. If the CLIENT does not object within this period, the subsequent data processor will be considered as accepted by the CLIENT, subject to the establishment of a contract imposing to him obligations of confidentiality and security at least equivalent to those agreed between the CLIENT and the DATA PROCESSOR before the transfer of the Data to the subsequent data processor.

If the CLIENT objects to the appointment of a subsequent data processor under the conditions described above, each of the Parties may terminate the Contract with one (1) month notice following the terms of Article 15 of the Contract.

The CLIENT acknowledges that by complying with its obligations under this Article, NABLA complies with its obligations under Article 28.2 of the GDPR.

  1. TERMS & CONDITIONS GOVERNING THE HOSTING SERVICE

The CLIENT agrees that the terms and conditions governing the hosting service are those in the hosting contract and its annexes signed between the DATA PROCESSOR and the subsequent data processor. The general terms and conditions of the data hosting services are available on the web site of the subsequent data processor and a copy of which may be provided to the CLIENT upon request.

Any changes to the hosting agreement between the DATA PROCESSOR and the subsequent data processor will automatically amend the terms and conditions of the hosting service provided by the DATA PROCESSOR to the CLIENT.

The DATA PROCESSOR shall notify the CLIENT of any amendments to the terms and conditions governing the Hosting Services brought to its attention by the subsequent data processor.

  1. SECURITY MEASURES

The DATA PROCESSOR undertakes to implement adequate security measures to protect the Processing.

When the operations carried out by the DATA PROCESSOR on the Data relate to Data hosted by an approved/certified host of personal health data designated by the DATA PROCESSOR in Article 4 of the Annex, the CLIENT undertakes to comply strictly with the security measures defined by this host, including in particular access to the Data by strong authentication.
