2. Scope. You acknowledge that the Photographer Services are designed and provided for the primary purpose of enabling you to exhibit, organize, print, sell, exchange, and share digital images, videos and related products, and not for the primary purpose of storage, management or Processing of Personal Data.

3. Processing. You expressly acknowledge that: (i) you are the Controller of Personal Data included in the Photographer Site Content; (ii) you hereby appoint Zenfolio as a Processor to Process the Personal Data included in the Photographer Site Content; and (iii) Zenfolio shall Process Personal Data as a Processor as necessary to perform its obligations under this DPA and strictly in accordance with your instructions as documented in this DPA, except where otherwise required by any applicable law. Photographer shall be responsible for complying with all requirements that apply to it under Applicable Data Protection Law.

Photographer is solely responsible for reviewing the Photographer Services, including any available security documentation and features, to determine whether they satisfy Photographer’s requirements, business needs, and legal obligations. 

4. CCPA Disclaimer. For purposes of the CCPA, Photographer shall be considered a “Business” and Zenfolio shall be considered a “Service Provider.” With regard to any Personal Information provided by Photographer to Zenfolio pursuant to this DPA, Zenfolio hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall not (i) “Sell” the Personal Information, (ii) retain, use, or disclose the Personal Information for any purpose other than for the specific purpose of performing the Photographer Services, or (iii) retain, use, or disclose Personal Information outside of the direct business relationship with Photographer. Without limiting the foregoing, each party acknowledges and agrees that the provision of Personal Information from Photographer to Zenfolio does not constitute, and is not the intent of either party for such provision of Personal Information to constitute, a “Sale” of Personal Information, and if valuable consideration, monetary or otherwise, is being provided by Photographer pursuant to the DPA, such valuable consideration, monetary or otherwise, is so being provided for the Photographer Services being rendered and not for the provision of Personal information. For purposes of this Section only, the terms “Business,” “Service Provider,” “Personal Information,” “Sale,” and “Sell” shall have the same meaning as set forth in the CCPA (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.140). The limitations set forth in this Section shall not be interpreted to prevent Zenfolio from complying with an applicable law, statute, regulation, or a binding order of a governmental or regulatory body.

5. Confidentiality and Security. Zenfolio shall maintain the confidentiality of all Photographer Personal Data and ensure that individuals who are authorized to Process Photographer Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.  Zenfolio shall implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures for its own systems to comply with data privacy in order to ensure a level of data protection appropriate to the risk resulting from the Processing of Photographer Personal Data under this DPA, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing, as well as the severity and likelihood of realization of risks for the rights and freedoms of Data Subjects. Upon termination or expiration of your Zenfolio account, Zenfolio shall delete Photographer Personal Data from the Zenfolio’s custody and control within sixty (60) business days, and it is your responsibility to r

6. Requests; Assistance. Zenfolio shall, to the extent legally permitted, promptly notify Photographer if Zenfolio receives a request from (i) a government or regulatory authority regarding the Processing of Photographer Personal Data (a “Government Access Request”) or (ii) a Data Subject seeking to exercise a data protection right or privilege (a “Data Subject Request”), and Zenfolio shall, to the extent practicable, seek to direct the requestor to Photographer. Taking into account the nature of the Processing, Zenfolio shall assist Photographer by appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as this is possible, for the fulfilment of Photographer’s obligation to respond to a Government Access Request or a Data Subject Request. In addition, to the extent Photographer, in its use of the Photographer Services , does not have the ability to address the Government Access Request or the Data Subject Request, Zenfolio shall, upon Photographer’s request, furnish commercially reasonable efforts to assist Photographer in responding to such requests, to the extent Zenfolio is legally required to do so. Photographer shall be responsible for any costs arising from Zenfolio’s provision of such assistance described herein. For the avoidance of doubt, Photographer shall be fully responsible and liable for timely and appropriately responding to a Government Access Request or a Data Subject Request. 

7. Impact Assessments; Consultation. Upon Photographer’s request, Zenfolio shall (at Photographer’s sole cost and expense) provide Photographer with commercially reasonable cooperation and assistance (i) needed to fulfil Photographer’s obligation under Applicable Data Protection Law to undertake a data protection impact assessment related to Photographer’s use of the Photographer Services, to the extent Photographer does not otherwise have access to the relevant information, and to the extent such information is available to Zenfolio, and (ii) with respect to a consultation with a governmental or regulatory authority.

8. Audit. At your sole cost and expense, and subject to your compliance with this DPA, you may (no more than once per year) audit Zenfolio’s compliance with its data protection obligations, provided you furnish Zenfolio at least thirty (30) days advance written notice of the same, with such notice to include a detailed proposed audit plan. The proposed audit plan must describe the proposed scope, duration, and start date of the audit. Zenfolio will review the proposed audit plan and provide you with any concerns or questions and work cooperatively with you to agree on a final audit plan. Zenfolio will contribute to such audits by providing the information and assistance reasonably necessary to conduct the audit, including any relevant records of Processing activities applicable to your use of the Photographer Services where such records are not otherwise available to you through the Photographer Services. The audit must be conducted during regular business hours, may not unreasonably interfere with Zenfolio business activities, and be conducted subject to the agreed final audit plan and Zenfolio’s internal policies. You will provide Zenfolio any audit reports generated as part of any audit unless Applicable Data Protection Law prohibits it. You may use the audit reports only for the purpose of meeting your regulatory audit requirements. The audit reports are confidential information of the parties under this DPA. Where assistance requested of Zenfolio in conjunction with such audit requires the use of resources different from or in addition to those required of Zenfolio under this DPA, you shall pay for such additional resources at Zenfolio’s then-current rates.

9. Security Event. Upon confirming a Personal Data Breach, Zenfolio shall: (i) taking into account the nature of Processing of Photographer Personal Data and the information available to Zenfolio, notify Photographer of the Personal Data Breach within seventy-two hours (72), or in accordance with the time frame set forth in Applicable Data Protection Law, (ii) provide timely information to Photographer relating to the Personal Data Breach as it becomes known or as is reasonably requested by Photographer, and (iii) promptly take reasonable steps to contain, investigate, and mitigate any Personal Data Breach. Photographer acknowledges that Zenfolio will not assess the contents of Photographer Personal Data in order to identify information subject to any specific Data Breach notification legal requirements, and Photographer is solely responsible to comply with Data Breach notification laws applicable to Photographer and to fulfill any third-party notification obligations related to any Personal Data Breach. Unless otherwise required by an Applicable Data Protection Law, the parties agree: (i) Zenfolio shall not provide notice of a Personal Data Breach to any third party or otherwise make any public statement on the same, and (ii) to coordinate in good faith on developing the content of any related public statements or any required notices for the affected Data Subjects and/or notices to the relevant supervisory authorities.  Zenfolio’s notice obligations set forth herein shall not be interpreted or construed, in any manner or in any form, as an admission of guilt, negligence, or wrongdoing.

10. Subprocessors. To the extent necessary for Zenfolio fulfill its contractual obligations under this DPA, you hereby authorize Zenfolio to engage and continue to use the Subprocessors identified at Exhibit III (the “Subprocessor List”). Zenfolio will notify applicable Photographers of any changes to such list by updating the Subprocessor List and will give them the opportunity to object to the engagement of the new Subprocessor on reasonable grounds relating to the protection of Personal Data within thirty (30) days after updating the Subprocessor List. If the Photographer does notify Zenfolio of such an objection, the parties will discuss Photographer’s concerns in good faith with a view to achieving a commercially reasonable resolution. If no such resolution can be reached, Zenfolio will, at its sole discretion, either not appoint the new Subprocessors, or permit the Photographer to suspend or terminate the affected Services in accordance with the termination provisions of this DPA.
