This Global Data Processing Addendum (“Addendum”) effective as of the Addendum Effective Date (as defined below), specifically amends the global data protection obligations of GumGum, Inc. (“GumGum”) as a “Data Controller” or “Covered Business” to the business or entity (herein referred to as “Data Processor”) to whom GumGum has entered into a Services Agreement (the “Main Agreement”), whereby Data Processor processes Personal Information.
In the event that any terms of this Addendum and its appendices are inconsistent with any other terms of the Main Agreement or any data protection addendum thereunder, the parties intend for the terms of this Addendum, its appendices, and the Main Agreement to be construed in the manner that permits each party to fulfill its obligations under applicable law.
Data Processor will Process all Personal Data solely to fulfill its obligations to GumGum under the Main Agreement, including this Addendum, and on GumGum’s behalf, and for no other purposes, unless otherwise required by Applicable Data Protection Laws. In such case, Data Processor will inform GumGum of that legal requirement before Processing.
Without limiting the foregoing, GumGum directs Data Processor to Process Personal Data in accordance with GumGum’s written instructions, as may be provided by GumGum to Data Processor from time to time, and in the following manner:
Subject matter, nature, and purpose of Processing Data Processor will process data solely to provide GumGum with services and to fulfill its purposes under the Main Agreement, which may include any lawful processing or business purposes as provided for under Applicable Data Protection Laws.

Sell Personal Data for any purpose except as permitted in the Main Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, “Sell” shall have the meaning set forth under the CCPA.

In such instance that Data Processor is legally required to respond to such a request, Data Processor shall promptly notify GumGum and provide it with a copy of the request unless legally prohibited from doing so.
Data Processor will promptly and without undue delay and in any case no later than twenty-four (24) hours after becoming aware, inform GumGum in the event of (a) any serious interruption of Data Processor‘s Processing operations; (b) any unauthorized acquisition, loss, access, or use of Personal Information; or (c) any breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosures of, or access to Personal Information (altogether, a “Security Incident”).

For the avoidance of doubt, this provision will not require Data Processor to provide GumGum with access to the confidential information of Data Processor’s other customers or other confidential or proprietary information belonging to Data Processor.
Upon termination or expiration of the Main Agreement, at GumGum’s request or as pursuant to Applicable Data Protection Laws, Data Processor shall return to GumGum a complete copy of the Personal Information it Processed in connection with the Main Agreement, in a form and format reasonably agreed upon by the parties. Following GumGum’s confirmation that it received such copy, Data Processor shall securely dispose of all Personal Information remaining in its possession or control.
GumGum acknowledges and agrees that Data Processor may use Data Processor Affiliates and/or subcontractors to Process Personal Data in accordance with the provisions within this Addendum and Applicable Data Protection Laws. Data Processor shall provide GumGum with a current list of its subcontractors in the attached Appendix 2, and upon GumGum’s reasonable written request from time to time.
Where Data Processor subcontracts any of its rights or obligations concerning Personal Data, including to any Affiliate, Data Processor will (i) take commercially reasonable measures to select and retain subcontractors that are capable of maintaining appropriate privacy and security measures to protect Personal Data consistent with Applicable Data Protection Laws and (ii) enter into a written agreement with each subcontractor that imposes obligations on the subcontractor that are no less restrictive than those imposed on Data Processor under this Addendum.
In addition to any indemnity obligations of Data Processor pursuant to the Main Agreement, Data Processor shall be liable for and shall indemnify GumGum against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, losses, damages and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred by GumGum resulting from a violation of this Addendum by Data Processor or Data Processor’s subcontractors and assignees, including without limitation those arising out of any third-party demand, claim or action, including by a data protection authority, or any material breach of contract, negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, breach of statutory duty, or non-compliance with any applicable data protection laws and regulations by Data Processor. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that the terms of this indemnification provision do not supersede, but rather are in addition to and are in no way inconsistent with any indemnification provision of the Main Agreement.
Data Processor’s liability arising out of or related to this Addendum is subject to the provisions on limitation of liability stated in the Main Agreement. In addition, GumGum is responsible for its own liability and obligations of compliance with respect to all Applicable Data Protection Laws, and Data Processor bears no liability for GumGum’s breach with these laws, except as set forth in this Addendum.
