The User is hereby informed that, for technical reasons relating to the management of the Platform, the Data he/she enters on the Platform, including Personal Data, may be stored in the data centres of the hosting service provider located in the country where the User connects. In the event that the User is a resident of the European Union, the User is informed and expressly accepts the transfer of his/her Personal Data to this host located outside the European Union, for the aforementioned purposes. EZUS ensures at all times that these transfers are carried out under appropriate and suitable conditions of security and confidentiality in order to guarantee a level of protection of the User's Personal Data equivalent to the level required within the European Union, in accordance with the Regulations applicable to the protection of Personal Data. 

The User is also informed that, for technical, maintenance and diagnostic purposes, any actions carried out on the Platform will be logged, recorded and time-stamped in a dedicated database. These actions may include, but are not limited to:

- Logging on to the Platform
- Writing a parameter to a connected device
- An operation on administration access
- Exporting data
- etc.

In accordance with the requirements of the Regulations applicable to the protection of Personal Data, EZUS undertakes to take all useful precautions, with regard to the nature of the User's Personal Data and the risks presented by the processing, to preserve the security and confidentiality thereof and, in particular, to prevent the destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or unauthorised access to such data.

The User's Personal Data will be kept for as long as their Account is active and they use the Platform. It will then be archived, in a secure environment that complies with the requirements of the Regulations applicable to the protection of Personal Data, for the legal period necessary for the purposes of proof for the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim.

Users have the right to access, rectify, limit and port their Personal Data. Users also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés if they believe that the processing carried out by EZUS constitutes a violation of their Personal Data.

13.2. Personal Data processed by the User as part of the use of the Platform

In the course of using the Platform, the User may be required to integrate and process Data, including Personal Data of End Customers or other persons with whom the User interacts. As the person responsible for processing this Personal Data, the User (or, where applicable, through him, the Customer) guarantees EZUS that he complies at all times with the Regulations applicable to the protection of Personal Data and, in particular, with the rights of the persons concerned by the processing that he carries out through the Platform. The User (or where applicable, through him, the Customer) guarantees EZUS against any recourse in this respect. 

For the purposes of the support offered to the User under these terms and conditions and maintaining the Platform in operational condition, EZUS may be required to access the Personal Data that the User processes through the Platform, on behalf of the User and on the User's instructions. In this respect, EZUS acts as a subcontractor for the User (or, where applicable, through the User, the Customer).

As a subcontractor, EZUS undertakes to comply with the following obligations and to ensure that its staff comply with them:

1) to process Personal Data within the strict and necessary framework of the execution of the CTCU and to act only on the basis of documented instructions from the User; 
‍
2) to ensure the confidentiality of Personal Data and to ensure that each person it authorises to process such data undertakes to respect confidentiality or is subject to an appropriate obligation of confidentiality;
‍
3) ensure the security and integrity of the Personal Data. To this end, EZUS implements and maintains security measures for the Platform as set out in Article 2 hereof; 
‍
4) not to keep the Personal Data beyond the duration of the CTCU or any other duration specified by the User. In any event, at the end of the CTCU, EZUS will return to the User, at his request, the Personal Data in its possession, in a standard format, and delete any copy of the Personal Data, with the exception of a copy that EZUS may archive for evidentiary purposes for the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal right;
‍
5) not to grant, rent, transfer or otherwise communicate to another person, all or part of the Personal Data, with the exception of the hosting provider as mentioned in article 2.2 above;
‍
6) the User (or where applicable the Customer) expressly authorises the use of subcontracting for the performance of the Contract by EZUS, this authorisation also includes the performance of all or part of the Personal Data processing activities. EZUS undertakes to inform the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) of any planned change concerning the addition or replacement of a subcontractor and to give the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) the opportunity to object to such change. In any event, EZUS ensures that any subcontractor it recruits offers sufficient guarantees regarding the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures so that the processing meets the requirements of the Regulation applicable to the protection of Personal Data and guarantees the protection of the rights of the persons concerned. EZUS remains responsible to the User for the performance of its obligations by its own subcontractors;
‍
7) provide assistance to the User (or where applicable the Customer) to enable it to respond, within the time limits and in accordance with the conditions laid down by the Regulations applicable to the protection of Personal Data, to any request to exercise a right, request or complaint from a data subject or from a data protection authority or any other regulator; 

8) provide assistance to the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) in the context of carrying out impact analyses relating to privacy and/or in the context of formalities to be carried out by the User (or, where applicable, the Customer). The latter acknowledges and accepts that the assistance that may be required in this context will be the subject of a separate service proposal from EZUS; 

9) make available to the User, subject to compliance with a confidentiality undertaking, all the information required to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set out in this article and to enable audits, including inspections, to be carried out by the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) or any auditor appointed by it and to contribute to these audits. Audits will be carried out at the sole expense of the User (or, where applicable, the Customer). The User undertakes to notify the audit request within a reasonable period of time before the audit takes place, which may not be less than ten (10) working days; 

10) not to transfer the Personal Data processed hereunder to countries outside the European Economic Area that have not been recognised by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection (i) without having first obtained the express and written authorisation of the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) and (ii) without the implementation of legal instruments recognised as appropriate by the Regulations applicable to the protection of Personal Data to govern the transfer(s) concerned; 

11) to notify the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) as soon as possible in the event of any Personal Data breach of which it becomes aware, the notification being accompanied by any useful documentation in order to enable the User (or, where applicable, the Customer), if necessary, to notify this breach to the competent supervisory authority, and to assist the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) in the implementation of any action enabling the User (or, where applicable, the Customer) to deal with this data breach.

14.2 Suspension of services

In the event of use of the Platform by the User that does not comply with the CTCU, in the event of breach by the User of the CTCU and/or breach by the Customer of the general terms and conditions of sale applicable to the Platform or of the Maintenance Contract, and more generally in the event of breach of the applicable laws and regulations, EZUS may suspend all or part of the User's access to the Platform as of right, without prior notice or compensation. EZUS may pronounce this suspension without prejudice to all other rights, remedies or actions that EZUS may have in order to compensate for the loss that it may have suffered as a result of these breaches. The Customer must continue to pay its subscription to EZUS during the suspension.

14.3 Termination for convenience

The Customer is free to terminate the Subscription at any time, by any written means (including email), subject to giving one (1) month's notice. In such a case, the Customer remains liable to EZUS for all the sums due for the Subscription year in progress, the amount of the Subscription paid by the Customer for this contractual year remaining the property of EZUS. 

14.4. Termination for fault

As the CTCU are linked to the GCV and the Maintenance Contract, the conditions and implementation of termination for fault are the same as for these two contracts. If one of the contracts in the Contract is terminated, all the other contracts in the Contract are also terminated.

14.5. Consequences of termination or expiry of the CTCU

If the CTCU is terminated for any reason whatsoever, the User account will be deactivated immediately and automatically. 

15.1. Force majeure

The Parties may not be held liable if the non-performance or delay in the performance of any of their obligations, as described herein, arises from a case of force majeure, within the meaning of article 1218 of the French Civil Code.
For its duration, the event of force majeure suspends the performance of the obligations for the Party invoking it. In all cases, the Party affected by the event of force majeure must do everything in its power to avoid, eliminate or reduce the causes of the delay and resume performance of its obligations as soon as the event invoked has disappeared. However, if the cases of force majeure last longer than one (1) month, they will entitle either of the Parties to terminate the Contract.

15.2 Independence of the Parties

The Parties declare and acknowledge that they are and will remain, for the entire duration of the Contract, independent partners, and that the Contract may not confer on either of the Parties the status of agent or representative of its co-contractor, neither Party having the power to bind the other or to sign in the name and on behalf of the other, each Party alone assuming the risks of its own operation.

The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with regard to its subject matter and cancels and replaces any previous or current agreement, whether oral or written, between the Parties with regard to this subject matter. 

15.4 Independence of clauses

In the event that one or more provisions of the Contract are held to be invalid or declared as such in application of a law, regulation or following a decision by a competent court that has become final, the other provisions of the Contract shall nevertheless retain all their force and scope.

15.5. Non-waiver

The failure of either Party to avail itself, at any given time, of any of the provisions of the Contract, shall not be interpreted in the future as a waiver of the rights it holds hereunder.
