14.4 Data Access and Use.
Provider remains Data Holder of data generated by the SaaS that is necessary for operation, security, or improvement, or cannot be disaggregated without revealing trade secrets. Where Customer is entitled to access data generated through the SaaS, Provider shall grant access on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms, subject to confidentiality and security safeguards.
14.5 Trade Secrets and Security.
Nothing in this Agreement requires disclosure of trade secrets or confidential know-how without adequate protection. Provider may apply proportionate measures (e.g. redaction, secure viewers, NDAs) where data access could endanger security or reveal proprietary information.

If Provider receives a lawful request from a public-sector body or EU institution under the Data Act (exceptional-need basis), Provider shall (i) notify Customer unless prohibited, (ii) disclose only what is strictly required, and (iii) record the legal basis. Reasonable costs may be recovered if permitted.
14.9 Relationship with GDPR.
For mixed datasets, GDPR rules prevail for Personal Data; the Data Act applies to non-personal portions after anonymisation or separation.
15. Term, Renewal and Termination
15.1 The Agreement starts on the Effective Date in the Order Form and runs for the Subscription Term, renewing for successive 1-year terms unless either Party gives 60 days’ notice before the end of the then-current term.
15.2 Either Party may terminate for material breach not cured within 30 days of notice, or upon bankruptcy/insolvency events as permitted by law.
15.3 On termination: (a) access ceases; (b) Customer pays due fees; and (c) upon request within 30 days, Provider will make available a standard export of Customer Data, after which it may delete remaining Customer Data from active systems, subject to legal retention.

16.1 Provider may revise non-material Terms to reflect product, legal or operational updates with prior email or in-product notice. For material adverse changes, Provider will notify at least 15 days in advance; Customer may terminate the affected services before the effective date (pro-rated refund of prepaid fees).

18. Assignment
18.1 Neither Party may assign the Agreement without the other’s consent, except that either Party may assign to an Affiliate or in connection with a merger, sale of all or substantially all assets or share sale, with notice.
19. Miscellaneous
19.1 Force majeure. Neither Party is liable for delays caused by events beyond reasonable control.
19.2 Severability; no waiver. If a provision is invalid, the remainder survives. Failure to enforce is not a waiver.
19.3 Notices. Legal notices must be in writing to the addresses in the Order Form; email is sufficient if receipt is verifiable.
19.4 Governing law and venue. Dutch law governs; the courts of Amsterdam, the Netherlands have exclusive jurisdiction.

Obligations of the Parties
7.1. Instructions
(a) The processor shall process personal data only on documented instructions from the controller, unless required to do so by Union or Member State law to which the processor is subject. In this case, the processor shall inform the controller of that legal requirement before processing, unless the law prohibits this on important grounds of public interest. Subsequent instructions may also be given by the controller throughout the duration of the processing of personal data. These instructions shall always be documented.
(b) The processor shall immediately inform the controller if, in the processor’s opinion, instructions given by the controller infringe Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or the applicable Union or Member State data protection provisions.

Processing by the processor shall only take place for the duration specified in Annex I.
7.4. Security of processing
(a) The processor shall at least implement the technical and organisational measures specified in Annex I to ensure the security of the personal data. This includes protecting the data against a breach of security leading to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access to the data (personal data breach).

The processor shall specifically inform in writing the controller of any intended changes of that list through the addition or replacement of sub-processors at least 15 days in advance, thereby giving the controller sufficient time to be able to object to such changes prior to the engagement of the concerned sub-processor(s). The processor shall provide the controller with the information necessary to enable the controller to exercise the right to object.
(b) Where the processor engages a sub-processor for carrying out specific processing activities (on behalf of the controller), it shall do so by way of a contract which imposes on the sub-processor, in substance, the same data protection obligations as the ones imposed on the data processor in accordance with these Clauses. The processor shall ensure that the sub-processor complies with the obligations to which the processor is subject pursuant to these Clauses and to Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
(c) At the controller’s request, the processor shall provide a copy of such a sub-processor agreement and any subsequent amendments to the controller.

7.8. International transfers
(a) Any transfer of data to a third country or an international organisation by the processor shall be done only on the basis of documented instructions from the controller or in order to fulfil a specific requirement under Union or Member State law to which the processor is subject and shall take place in compliance with Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
(b) The controller agrees that where the processor engages a sub-processor in accordance with Clause 7.7. for carrying out specific processing activities (on behalf of the controller) and those processing activities involve a transfer of personal data within the meaning of Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the processor and the sub-processor can ensure compliance with Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 by using standard contractual clauses adopted by the Commission in accordance with of Article 46(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, provided the conditions for the use of those standard contractual clauses are met.
