2.          DATA PROCESSING

2.1.       Scope and Roles. This DPA applies when Personal Data is Processed by Gong strictly on behalf of Customer, as part of Gong’s provision of the Services. In this context and for the purposes of the GDPR or any similar Data Protection Laws, Customer is the data Controller and Gong is the data Processor (or such other similar terms as defined under applicable Data Protection Laws); and for the purposes of the CCPA (to the extent applicable), Customer is the Business and Gong is the Service Provider.

2.2.       Subject Matter, Duration, Nature and Purpose of Processing. Gong Processes Customer’s Personal Data as part of providing Customer with the Services, pursuant to the specifications and for the duration under the Agreement.

2.3.       Type of Personal Data and Categories of Data Subjects. Customer and Authorized Users determine the identity of the persons which are part of the conversations and content analyzed by the Services, and the type and nature of any Personal Data (if any) exchanged in such conversations or included in such content. Gong has no control over the identity of the Data Subjects whose Personal Data is processed on behalf of Customer and over the types of Personal Data Processed. The Services are not intended for the Processing of Sensitive Data. At Customer’s selection, the Services may also be used to capture voice identifiers relating to Authorized Users, for speaker identification and call cataloging purposes.

2.4.       Customer’s Obligations and Instructions. Customer shall, in its use of the Services, only submit or otherwise have Personal Data Processed in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws. Gong will only Process Personal Data on behalf of and in accordance with Customer’s reasonable instructions. Customer instructs Gong to Process Personal Data for the following purposes: (i) Processing to provide and ensure proper operation of the Services in accordance with the Agreement; (ii) Processing initiated or instructed by Authorized Users in their use of the Services; (iii) Processing to comply with other reasonable instructions provided by Customer where such instructions are consistent with the Agreement; (iv) sharing Personal Data with, or receiving Personal Data from, third parties in accordance with Customer’s instructions and/or pursuant to Customer’s use of the Services (e.g., integrations between the Services and any services provided by third parties, as configured by or on behalf of Customer); (v) rendering Personal Data fully and irrevocably anonymous and non-personal, in accordance with applicable standards recognized by Data Protection Laws and guidance issued thereunder; and (vi) Processing as required under any applicable laws to which Gong is subject, and/or as required by a court of competent jurisdiction or other competent governmental or semi-governmental authority, provided that Gong shall inform Customer of the legal requirement before Processing, unless prohibited under such law or requirement. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer’s instructions for the Processing of Personal Data shall comply with Data Protection Laws. Customer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, and legality of Personal Data and the means by which Customer acquired Personal Data. Without limitation, Customer will provide all necessary notices to relevant Data Subjects, including a description of the Services, and secure all necessary permissions and consents, or other applicable lawful grounds for Processing Personal Data pursuant to this DPA and/or under Data Protection Laws, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless any claim, damages or fine against Gong arising from any failure to acquire or use the Personal Data with legal consent or legitimate business purpose or in violation of any Data Protection Laws. Gong will inform Customer, if in Gong’s opinion an instruction infringes any provision under any Data Protection Laws and will be under no obligation to follow such instruction, until the matter is resolved in good-faith between the parties.

To the extent that Gong cannot comply with an instruction from Customer, (i) Gong shall promptly inform Customer, providing relevant details of the problem, (ii) Gong may, without any kind of liability to Customer, temporarily cease all Processing of the affected Personal Data (other than securely storing such data) and/or suspend access to the Customer’s account, and (iii) if the parties do not agree on a resolution to the issue in question and the costs thereof, Customer may, as its sole remedy, terminate the Agreement and this DPA with respect to the affected Processing. Customer will have no further claims against Gong (including, without limitation, requesting refunds for the Services) pursuant to the termination of the Agreement and the DPA as described in this paragraph.

2.5.       CCPA Standard of Care; No Sale or Sharing of Personal Information. Gong acknowledges and confirms that it does not receive or process any Personal Information as consideration for any services or other items that Gong provides to Customer under the Agreement. As may be applicable to the Services provided under the Agreement, Gong certifies that it understands the rules, requirements and definitions of the CCPA and agrees to refrain from selling or sharing (as such terms are defined in the CCPA) any Personal Information Processed hereunder, without Customer’s prior written consent or instruction, nor take any action that would cause any transfer of Personal Information to or from Gong under the Agreement or this DPA to qualify as “selling” and/or “sharing” such Personal Information under the CCPA. Gong acknowledges that Customer discloses Personal Information to Gong only for limited and specified business purposes (as such term is defined in the CCPA) set out in this DPA and the Agreement. Gong shall process all Personal Information only (i) for such limited and specific business purpose(s), and (ii) in compliance with applicable sections of the CCPA, in a manner that provides the same or materially similar level of privacy protection as required of Customer considering the Personal Information processed and industry standards. Gong shall not (i) retain, use, or disclose Personal Information outside the direct business relationship of the parties, as described in the Agreement, or for any business or commercial purpose other than for the specific business purpose of performing the Services or as otherwise permitted by the Agreement and/or this DPA, nor (ii) combine Personal Information with personal information Gong processes on behalf of other parties unless expressly permitted under the CCPA and the Agreement between the parties. As applicable to the Services provided, Gong shall implement reasonable security measures, as described in Section 7 of this DPA, as appropriate under the CCPA, and reasonably assist Customer or otherwise enable Customer to comply with its obligations relating to any request received from an individual under the CCPA, as described in Section 3 of this DPA. Customer shall inform Gong of any request received from an individual under the CCPA which requires Gong’s assistance in order to be fulfilled by Customer, and shall provide Gong all information necessary for it to assist with the request. Subject to the audit provisions in the Agreement and this DPA, Gong acknowledges that Customer has the right to take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that Gong uses Personal Information in a manner consistent with Customer’s obligations under the CCPA. Gong further acknowledges that Customer has the right, upon notice, to take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate any unauthorized use of Personal Information by Gong, subject to the conditions agreed upon in this DPA, including audit provisions. Gong shall notify Customer if Gong makes a determination that it can no longer meet its obligations under the CCPA.

3.          ASSISTANCE

Taking into account the nature of the Processing, Gong will reasonably assist Customer by appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of Customer’s obligation to respond to requests for exercising the Data Subjects’ rights under the GDPR or other Data Protection Laws, to request access, rectification or deletion of Personal Data, to restrict or object to further processing of such data, to receive a portable copy thereof, or to request not to be subject to automated individual decision-making. Gong will further reasonably assist Customer, upon Customer’s reasonable request, in ensuring compliance with Customer’s obligations in connection with the security of Processing, notification of a Personal Data Breach to supervisory authorities and affected Data Subjects, Customer’s data protection impact assessments and Customer’s prior consultation with supervisory authorities, insofar as it relates to Gong’s Processing of Personal Data under this DPA, and to the extent Customer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information, and that such information is available to Gong. Except for negligible costs, Customer will promptly reimburse Gong with costs and expenses incurred by Gong in connection with the provision of assistance to Customer under this DPA.

4.          GONG PERSONNEL

4.1.       Limitation of Access. Gong will ensure that Gong’s access to Personal Data is limited to those Personnel who require such access to perform the Agreement.

4.2.       Confidentiality. Gong will impose appropriate contractual obligations upon its Personnel engaged in the Processing of Personal Data, including relevant obligations regarding confidentiality, data protection, and data security. Gong will ensure that its Personnel engaged in the Processing of Personal Data are informed of the confidential nature of the Personal Data, have received appropriate training in their responsibilities, and have executed written confidentiality agreements. Gong will ensure that such confidentiality agreements survive the termination of the employment or engagement of its Personnel.

5.          SUB-PROCESSORS

5.1.       Gong may engage Sub-Processors to Process Personal Data on behalf of Customer. Customer hereby provides Gong with a general authorization to engage the Sub-Processors listed at https://www.gong.io/sub-processors/. All Sub-Processors have entered into written agreements with Gong that bind them by data protection obligations substantially similar to those under this DPA. Where a Sub-Processor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations in connection with the Processing of Personal Data under this DPA, Gong will remain fully liable to Customer for the performance of that Sub-Processor’s obligations.

5.2.       Gong may engage with a new Sub-Processor (“New Sub-Processor”) to Process Personal Data on Customer’s behalf. Gong’s webpage accessible via https://www.gong.io/sub-processors offers a mechanism to subscribe to notifications of new Sub-Processors, to which Customer may subscribe. Gong shall provide notification of any new Sub-Processor(s) before authorizing such new Sub-Processor(s) to Process Personal Data in connection with the provision of the Services. Customer may object to the Processing of Customer’s Personal Data by the New Sub-Processor, for reasonable and explained grounds, by providing a written objection to privacy@gong.io within 5 business days following Gong’s written notice to Customer of the intended engagement with the New Sub-Processor. If Customer timely sends Gong a written objection notice, the parties will use good-faith efforts to resolve Customer’s objection. In the absence of a resolution, Gong will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer with the same level of service, without using the New Sub-Processor to Process Customer’s Personal Data.

6.          CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFERS

6.1.       Transfers from the EEA, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, to countries that offer adequate level of data protection. Personal Data may be transferred from EU Member States, the three EEA member countries (Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland) (collectively, “EEA”), Switzerland, or the United Kingdom (“UK”), to countries that offer an adequate level of data protection  pursuant to the adequacy decisions published by the relevant data protection authorities of the EEA, the European Union, the Member States or the European Commission, or Switzerland, or the UK as relevant (“Adequacy Decisions”), as applicable, without any further safeguard being necessary.

6.2 Transfers from the EEA, Switzerland or the United Kingdom to DPF-certified organizations in the USA.

To the extent Personal Data from the EEA, Switzerland or the UK is transferred to and processed by Gong in the USA on the basis of Gong’s certification to the DPF, and the Parties can no longer rely on the DPF, Section ‎6.3 of this DPA shall apply.

6.3.       Transfers from the EEA, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, to other countries. If the Processing of Personal Data by Gong includes transfers (either directly or via onward transfer) from the EEA (“EEA Transfer”), Switzerland (“Swiss Transfer”), or the UK (“UK Transfer”) to other countries which have not been subject to a relevant Adequacy Decision (“Cross-Border Transfer”), and such transfers are not performed through an alternative recognized compliance mechanism as may be adopted by Gong for the lawful transfer of personal data (as defined in the GDPR) outside the EEA, Switzerland, or the UK, , as applicable, then (i) the terms set forth in Part 1 of Schedule 1 (EEA Cross Border Transfers) shall apply to any such EEA Transfer; (ii) the terms set forth in Part 2 of Schedule 1 (UK Cross Border Transfers) shall apply to any such UK Transfer; (iii) the terms set forth in Part 3 of Schedule 1 (Switzerland Cross Border Transfers) shall apply to any such Swiss Transfer; and (iv) the terms set forth in Part 4 of Schedule 1 (Additional Safeguards) shall apply to any such Cross-Border Transfers.

6.4.       Additional Transfers. If the Processing performed by Gong includes a transfer of Personal Data by Customer, or mandated by Customer, from any other jurisdiction which mandates a particular compliance mechanism for the lawful transfer of such data be established, Customer shall notify Gong of such applicable requirements, and the Parties may seek to make any necessary amendments to this DPA in accordance with the provisions of Section ‎14 below.

7.          SECURITY

7.1.       Controls. Gong will implement and maintain administrative, physical and technical safeguards designed for the protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer’s Personal Data, pursuant to the Gong Information Security Standards. Gong regularly monitors its compliance with these safeguards. Gong will not materially decrease the overall security of the Services during the term of the Agreement.

7.2.       Policies, Certifications and Audit Reports. Gong uses external auditors to verify the adequacy of its security measures. The internal controls of the Services are subject to periodic testing by such auditors and are based on the Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 18 Service Organisation Control (SOC2) report. Upon Customer’s written request at reasonable intervals and subject to confidentiality limitations, Gong will make available to Customer that is not a Gong competitor (or to a third party auditor on Customer’s behalf, that is not a Gong competitor and subject to the auditor’s execution of Gong’s non-disclosure agreement), the most recent version of third-party security audit or certification reports commonly made available to Gong Customers.

8.          PERSONAL DATA BREACH MANAGEMENT AND NOTIFICATION

8.1.       Gong will maintain security incident management policies and procedures and, to the extent required under applicable Data Protection Laws, will notify Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Customer’s Personal Data being Processed hereunder by Gong or any of Gong’s Sub-Processors. Gong’s notice will at least: (a) describe the nature of the Personal Data Breach including where possible, the categories and approximate number of Data Subjects concerned and the categories and approximate number of Personal Data records concerned; (b) communicate the name and contact details of a designated officer on Gong’s data protection team, which will be available to provide any additionally available information about the Personal Data Breach; (c) describe the likely consequences of the Personal Data Breach; (d) describe the measures taken or proposed to be taken by Gong to address the Personal Data Breach, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects. Where, and in so far as, it is not possible to provide the information at the same time, the information may be provided in phases without undue further delay.

8.2.       Customer will not make, disclose, release or publish any finding, admission of liability, communication, notice, press release or report concerning any Personal Data Breach which directly or indirectly identifies Gong (including in any legal proceeding or in any notification to regulatory or supervisory authorities or affected individuals) without Gong’s prior written approval, unless, and solely to the extent that, Customer is compelled to do so pursuant to applicable Data Protection Laws. In the latter case, unless prohibited by such laws, Customer shall provide Gong with reasonable prior written notice to provide Gong with the opportunity to object to such disclosure and in any case, Customer will limit the disclosure to the minimum scope required by such laws.

9.          AUDIT AND DEMONSTRATION OF COMPLIANCE

9.1.       Gong will make available to Customer, pursuant to Customer’s reasonable written request, all information necessary for Customer to demonstrate compliance with its obligations under applicable Data Protection Laws and this DPA, in relation to the Processing of Personal Data under this DPA by Gong and its Sub-Processors. Such information shall only be used by Customer to assess compliance with the aforesaid obligations, and may not be disclosed to any third party without Gong’s prior written approval. As soon as the purpose of such information is met, Customer will permanently dispose of all copies thereof.

9.2.       Gong will allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by Customer or a reputable auditor mandated by Customer (who are each not a competitor of Gong or affiliated with such a competitor), to assess Gong’s compliance with its obligations under this DPA.

10.         RETURN OR DELETION OF PERSONAL DATA

Upon 30 days following termination or expiration of the Agreement, Gong shall delete all Customer Data in its possession or control. This requirement shall not apply to the extent Gong is required by applicable law to retain some or all of the Customer Data, or to Customer Data it has archived on back-up systems (e.g., in the form of audit logs), which Customer Data Gong shall securely isolate and protect from any further Processing, except to the extent required by applicable law.

11.        DISPUTE RESOLUTION

The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute related to this DPA as a precondition to commencing legal proceedings, first by direct communications between the persons responsible for administering this DPA and next by negotiation between executives with authority to settle the controversy. Either party may give the other party a written notice of any dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Within five business days after delivery of the notice, the receiving party will submit to the other party a written response. The notice and the response will include a statement of each party’s position and a summary of arguments supporting that position and the name and title of the executive who will represent that party. Within five business days after delivery of the disputing party’s notice, the executives of both parties will meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, including by phone, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to resolve the dispute. All reasonable requests for information made by one party to the other will be honored. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and will be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.

12.        TERM

This DPA will commence and become legally binding on the earlier of (i) the date of its execution, (ii) the effective date of the Agreement to which it relates, or (iii) the initiation of Gong’s Processing of Personal Data on behalf of Customer; and will continue until the Agreement expires or is terminated.

13.        AUTHORIZED AFFILIATES

13.1.     Contractual Relationship. The parties acknowledge and agree that, by executing the DPA, the Customer enters into the DPA on behalf of itself and, as applicable, in the name and on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates, in which case each Authorized Affiliate agrees to be bound by the Customer’s obligations under this DPA, if and to the extent that Customer Processes Personal Data on the behalf of such Authorized Affiliates, thus qualifying them as the “Controller”. All access to and use of the Services by Authorized Affiliates must comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this DPA and any violation of the terms and conditions therein by an Authorized Affiliate shall be deemed a violation by Customer.

13.2.     Communication. The Customer shall remain responsible for coordinating all communication with Gong under the Agreement and this DPA and shall be entitled to make and receive any communication in relation to this DPA on behalf of its Authorized Affiliates.

14.        MODIFICATIONS

Each party may by at least 45 days’ prior written notice to the other party, request in writing any variations to this DPA if they are required as a result of any change in, or decision of a competent authority under, any Data Protection Laws, to allow Processing of Customer Personal Data to be made (or continue to be made) without breach of that Data Protection Law. Pursuant to such notice: (a) Gong shall make commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate such modification requested by Customer or that Gong believes is necessary; and (b) Customer shall not unreasonably withhold or delay agreement to any consequential variations to this DPA proposed by Gong to protect Gong against additional risks, or to indemnify and compensate Gong for any further steps and costs associated with the variations made herein at Customer’s request. The parties shall promptly discuss the proposed variations and negotiate in good faith with a view to agreeing and implementing those or alternative variations designed to address the requirements identified in Customer’s or Gong’s notice as soon as is reasonably practicable. In the event that the parties are unable to reach such an agreement within 30 days of such notice, then Customer or Gong may, by written notice to the other party, with immediate effect, terminate the Agreement to the extent that it relates to the Services which are affected by the proposed variations (or lack thereof). Customer will have no further claims against Gong (including, without limitation, requesting refunds) pursuant to the termination of the Agreement and the DPA as described in this Section.

15.        LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

PART 4 – ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS

1. In the event of any Cross-Border Transfer, the Parties agree to supplement these with the following safeguards and representations, where appropriate:

a. The Data Importer shall have in place and maintain in accordance with good industry practice measures to protect the Personal Data from interception (including in transit from the Data Exporter to the Data Importer and between different systems and services). This includes having in place and maintaining network protection intended to deny attackers the ability to intercept data and encryption of Personal Data whilst in transit and at rest intended to deny attackers the ability to read data.

b. The Data Importer will make commercially reasonable efforts to resist, subject to applicable laws, any request for bulk surveillance relating to the Personal Data protected under GDPR, FADP or the UK GDPR, including under section 702 of the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (“FISA”);

c. If the Data Importer becomes aware that any government authority (including law enforcement) wishes to obtain access to or a copy of some or all of the Customer’s Personal Data, whether on a voluntary or a mandatory basis, then unless legally prohibited or under a mandatory legal compulsion that requires otherwise:

I. The Data Importer will notify the Data Exporter immediately after first becoming aware of such demand for access to Customer’s Personal Data and provide the Data Exporter with all relevant details of the same, unless and to the extent legally prohibited to do so;
II. The Data Importer shall inform the relevant government authority that the Data Importer is a processor of the Customer’s Personal Data and that the Data Exporter and/or Controller has not authorized the Data Importer to disclose the Customer’s Personal Data to the government authority, and inform the relevant government authority that any and all requests or demands for access to the Customer’s Personal Data should therefore be notified to or served upon the Data Exporter and/or Controller in writing;
III. The Data Importer will use commercially reasonable legal mechanisms to challenge any such demand for access to Customer’s Personal Data which is under the Data Importer’s control. Notwithstanding the above, (a) the Data Exporter acknowledges that such challenge may not always be reasonable or possible in light of the nature, scope, context and purposes of the intended government authority access, and (b) if, taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of the intended government authority access to Customer’s Personal Data, the Data Importer has a reasonable and good-faith belief that urgent access is necessary to prevent an imminent risk of serious harm to any individual or entity, this subsection (c)(III) shall not apply. In such event, the Data Importer shall notify the Data Exporter, as soon as possible, following the access by the government authority, and provide the Data Exporter with relevant details of the same, unless and to the extent legally prohibited to do so.

2. Once in every 12-month period, the Data Importer will inform the Data Exporter, at the Data Exporter’s written request, to the extent permitted by applicable law, of the types of binding legal demands for Personal Data it has received and solely to the extent such demands have been received, including national security orders and directives, which shall encompass any process issued under section 702 of FISA.
