Data Sharing Agreement

This Data Sharing Agreement (the “DSA”) and the attached Standard Contractual Clauses form part of Skyworker Terms of Use (hereinafter the “Master Agreement”) between the Skyworker and the Company (as defined below), also referred to as the “data exporter” and the “data importer”.

Clause 1

Execution date

The date of execution of the Master Agreement shall constitute the date of execution of this DSA.

Clause 2

Parties

Skyworker Inc, legal entity incorporated under the laws of the USA (the “Skyworker”) and
the party that has accepted the Master Agreement (the “Company”)

jointly referred to as the “data controllers” and each separately as the “data controller”.

Clause 3

Background

Skyworker transfers personal data of employment candidates for the purpose of connecting employment candidates with the Company looking for them through Skyworker´s website.
Due to the scope and subject matter of the data processing operations, each data controller is considered an independent controller of the personal data of employment candidates.
This DSA sets out the additional terms, requirements, and conditions each controller must comply with in the process of the data transfer. The DSA contains the mandatory provisions required by the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the “GDPR”) as well as the UK GDPR as defined in section 3 of the UK Data Protection Act 2018.

Clause 4

Interpretation

Where this DSA uses terms that are defined in the GDPR, those terms shall have the same meaning as in that Regulation.
This DSA shall be read and interpreted in light of the provisions of the GDPR.
This DSA shall not be interpreted in a way that conflicts with rights and obligations provided for in the GDPR.

Clause 5

Hierarchy

In the event of a contradiction between this DSA and the provisions of the related agreement between the data controllers, existing at the time this DSA is agreed or entered into thereafter, this DSA shall prevail.

Clause 6

Description of the transfer(s)

The details of the transfer(s), and in particular the categories of personal data that are transferred and the purpose(s) for which they are transferred, are specified in Annex I of the Attachment.

SECTION II – OBLIGATIONS OF THE DATA CONTROLLERS

Clause 7

Data protection safeguards

Each data controller warrants that it has used reasonable efforts to determine that each data controller is able, through the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures, to satisfy its obligations under this DSA.

7.1 Purpose limitation

Each data controller shall process the personal data only for the specific purpose(s) of the sharing, as set out in Annex I of the Attachment. It may only process the personal data for another purpose:

where it has obtained the data subject’s prior consent;
where necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims in the context of specific administrative, regulatory or judicial proceedings; or
where necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.

7.2 Transparency

In order to enable data subjects to effectively exercise their rights, each data controller shall inform:
1. of its identity and contact details;
2. of the categories of personal data processed;
3. of the right to obtain a copy of this DSA;
4. where it intends to onward transfer the personal data to any third party/ies, of the recipient or categories of recipients (as appropriate with a view to providing meaningful information).
Paragraph (a) shall not apply where the data subject already has the information, including when such information has already been provided by each data controller, or providing the information proves impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort for each data controller. In the latter case, each data controller shall, to the extent possible, make the information publicly available.
Paragraphs (a) to (b) are without prejudice to the obligations of each data controller under the GDPR.

7.3 Accuracy and data minimisation

Each data controller shall ensure that the personal data is accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date. Each data controller shall take every reasonable step to ensure that personal data that is inaccurate, having regard to the purpose(s) of processing, is erased or rectified without delay.
Each data controller shall ensure that the personal data is adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purpose(s) of processing.

7.4 Storage limitation

Each data controller shall retain the personal data for no longer than necessary for the purpose(s) for which it is processed. It shall put in place appropriate technical or organisational measures to ensure compliance with this obligation, including erasure or anonymisation of the data and all back-ups at the end of the retention period.

7.5 Security of processing

Each data controller shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the security of transmission of the personal data, including protection against a breach of security leading to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access (hereinafter ‘personal data breach’). In assessing the appropriate level of security, they shall take due account of the state of the art, the costs of implementation, the nature, scope, context and purpose(s) of processing and the risks involved in the processing for the data subject. The data controllers shall in particular consider having recourse to encryption or pseudonymisation, including during transmission, where the purpose of processing can be fulfilled in that manner.
Each data controller shall carry out regular checks to ensure that the technical and organisational measures to protect personal data continue to provide an appropriate level of security.
Each data controller shall ensure that persons authorised to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.
In the event of a personal data breach concerning personal data processed by each data controller under this DSA, each data controller shall take appropriate measures to address the personal data breach, including measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.
In case of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, each data controller shall without undue delay notify both each data controller and the competent supervisory authority. Such notification shall contain: i) a description of the nature of the breach (including, where possible, categories and an approximate number of data subjects and personal data records concerned), ii) its likely consequences, iii) the measures taken or proposed to address the breach, and iv) the details of a contact point from whom more information can be obtained. To the extent it is not possible for each data controller to provide all the information at the same time, it may do so in phases without undue further delay.
In case of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, each data controller shall also notify without undue delay the data subjects concerned of the personal data breach and its nature, if necessary in cooperation with each data controller, together with the information referred to in paragraph (e), points ii) to iv), unless each data controller has implemented measures to significantly reduce the risk to the rights or freedoms of natural persons, or notification would involve disproportionate efforts. In the latter case, each data controller shall instead issue a public communication or take a similar measure to inform the public of the personal data breach.
Each data controller shall document all relevant facts relating to the personal data breach, including its effects and any remedial action is taken, and keep a record thereof.

7.6 Sensitive data

Where the transfer involves personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, or biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or a person’s sex life or sexual orientation, or data relating to criminal convictions or offences (hereinafter ‘sensitive data’), each data controller shall apply specific restrictions and/or additional safeguards adapted to the specific nature of the data and the risks involved. This may include restricting the personnel permitted to access the personal data, additional security measures (such as pseudonymisation) and/or additional restrictions with respect to further disclosure.

7.7 Onward transfers

Each data controller shall not disclose the personal data to a third party located outside the European Union unless the third party is or agrees to be bound by this DSA. Otherwise, an onward transfer by each data controller may only take place if:

it is to a country benefiting from an adequacy decision that covers the onward transfer;
the third party otherwise ensures appropriate safeguards with respect to the processing in question;
the third party enters into a binding instrument with each data controller ensuring the same level of data protection as under this DSA, and each data controller provides a copy of these safeguards to each data controller;
it is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims in the context of specific administrative, regulatory or judicial proceedings;
it is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person; or
where none of the other conditions apply, each data controller has obtained the explicit consent of the data subject for an onward transfer in a specific situation, after having informed him/her of its purpose(s), the identity of the recipient and the possible risks of such transfer to him/her due to the lack of appropriate data protection safeguards.

Any onward transfer is subject to compliance by each data controller with all the other safeguards under this DSA, in particular purpose limitation.

7.8 Processing under the authority of each data controller

Each data controller shall ensure that any person acting under its authority, including a processor, processes the data only on its instructions.

7.9 Documentation and compliance

Each data controller shall be able to demonstrate compliance with its obligations under this DSA. In particular, each data controller shall keep appropriate documentation of the processing activities carried out under its responsibility.
Each data controller shall make such documentation available to the competent supervisory authority on request.

Clause 8

Data subject rights

Each data controller, where relevant with the assistance of each data controller, shall deal with any enquiries and requests it receives from a data subject relating to the processing of his/her personal data and the exercise of his/her rights under this DSA without undue delay and at the latest within 30 days of the receipt of the enquiry or request. Each data controller shall take appropriate measures to facilitate such enquiries, requests and the exercise of data subject rights. Any information provided to the data subject shall be in an intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language.
In particular, upon request by the data subject each data controller shall, free of charge:
1. provide confirmation to the data subject as to whether personal data concerning him/her is being processed and, where this is the case, a copy of the data relating to him/her and the information in Annex I of the Attachment; if personal data has been or will be onward transferred, provide information on recipients or categories of recipients to which the personal data has been or will be onward transferred, the purpose of such onward transfers and their ground; and provide information on the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;
2. rectify inaccurate or incomplete data concerning the data subject;
3. erase personal data concerning the data subject if such data is being or has been processed in violation of any of this DSA ensuring third-party beneficiary rights, or if the data subject withdraws the consent on which the processing is based.
Where each data controller processes the personal data for direct marketing purposes, it shall cease processing for such purposes if the data subject objects to it.
Each data controller shall not make a decision based solely on the automated processing of the personal data transferred (hereinafter ‘automated decision’), which would produce legal effects concerning the data subject or similarly significantly affect him/her, unless with the explicit consent of the data subject or if authorised to do so under the laws of the country of destination, provided that such laws lay down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject’s rights and legitimate interests. In this case, each data controller shall:
1. inform the data subject about the envisaged automated decision, the envisaged consequences and the logic involved; and
2. implement suitable safeguards, at least by enabling the data subject to contest the decision, express his/her point of view and obtain review by a human being.
Where requests from a data subject are excessive, in particular, because of their repetitive character, each data controller may either charge a reasonable fee taking into account the administrative costs of granting the request or refuse to act on the request.
Each data controller may refuse a data subject’s request if such refusal is allowed under the laws of the country of destination and is necessary and proportionate in a democratic society to protect one of the objectives listed in the GDPR.
If each data controller intends to refuse a data subject’s request, it shall inform the data subject of the reasons for the refusal and the possibility of lodging a complaint with the competent supervisory authority and/or seeking judicial redress.

Clause 9

Redress

Each data controller shall inform data subjects in a transparent and easily accessible format, through individual notice or on its website, of a contact point authorised to handle complaints. It shall deal promptly with any complaints it receives from a data subject.
In case of a dispute between a data subject and one of the data controllers as regards compliance with this DSA, that data controller shall use its best efforts to resolve the issue amicably in a timely fashion.
Each data controller shall abide by a decision that is binding under the applicable EU law.
Each data controller agrees that the choice made by the data subject will not prejudice his/her substantive and procedural rights to seek remedies in accordance with applicable laws.

Clause 10

Liability

Each data controller shall be liable for their own GDPR controller obligations.
Each data controller may not invoke the conduct of a processor or sub-processor to avoid its own liability.

Clause 11

Termination and retention of data

This DSA shall be effective until the duration of provision of services under the Master Agreement by Skyworker.

Clause 12

Choice of forum and governing law

This DSA shall be governed by the law of Ireland.
Any dispute arising from this DSA shall be resolved by the courts of Ireland.

SECTION III – LOCAL LAWS AND OBLIGATIONS IN CASE OF ACCESS BY PUBLIC AUTHORITIES

Clause 14

Local laws and practices affecting compliance with the Clauses

The Parties warrant that they have no reason to believe that the laws and practices in the third country of destination applicable to the processing of the personal data by the data importer, including any requirements to disclose personal data or measures authorising access by public authorities, prevent the data importer from fulfilling its obligations under these Clauses. This is based on the understanding that laws and practices that respect the essence of the fundamental rights and freedoms and do not exceed what is necessary and proportionate in a democratic society to safeguard one of the objectives listed in Article 23(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, are not in contradiction with these Clauses.
The Parties declare that in providing the warranty in paragraph (a), they have taken due account in particular of the following elements:
1. the specific circumstances of the transfer, including the length of the processing chain, the number of actors involved and the transmission channels used; intended onward transfers; the type of recipient; the purpose of processing; the categories and format of the transferred personal data; the economic sector in which the transfer occurs; the storage location of the data transferred;
2. the laws and practices of the third country of destination – including those requiring the disclosure of data to public authorities or authorising access by such authorities – relevant in light of the specific circumstances of the transfer, and the applicable limitations and safeguards;
3. any relevant contractual, technical or organisational safeguards put in place to supplement the safeguards under these Clauses, including measures applied during transmission and to the processing of the personal data in the country of destination.
The data importer warrants that, in carrying out the assessment under paragraph (b), it has made its best efforts to provide the data exporter with relevant information and agrees that it will continue to cooperate with the data exporter in ensuring compliance with these Clauses.
The Parties agree to document the assessment under paragraph (b) and make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.
The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter promptly if, after having agreed to these Clauses and for the duration of the contract, it has reason to believe that it is or has become subject to laws or practices not in line with the requirements under paragraph (a), including following a change in the laws of the third country or a measure (such as a disclosure request) indicating an application of such laws in practice that is not in line with the requirements in paragraph (a).
Following a notification pursuant to paragraph (e), or if the data exporter otherwise has reason to believe that the data importer can no longer fulfil its obligations under these Clauses, the data exporter shall promptly identify appropriate measures (e.g. technical or organisational measures to ensure security and confidentiality) to be adopted by the data exporter and/or data importer to address the situation.

The data exporter shall suspend the data transfer if it considers that no appropriate safeguards for such transfer can be ensured, or if instructed by the competent supervisory authority to do so. In this case, the data exporter shall be entitled to terminate the contract, insofar as it concerns the processing of personal data under these Clauses. If the contract involves more than two Parties, the data exporter may exercise this right to termination only with respect to the relevant Party, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise. Where the contract is terminated pursuant to this Clause, Clause 16(d) and (e) shall apply.

Clause 15

Obligations of the data importer in case of access by public authorities

15.1 Notification

The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter and, where possible, the data subject promptly (if necessary with the help of the data exporter) if it:
1. receives a legally binding request from a public authority, including judicial authorities, under the laws of the country of destination for the disclosure of personal data transferred pursuant to these Clauses; such notification shall include information about the personal data requested, the requesting authority, the legal basis for the request and the response provided; or
2. becomes aware of any direct access by public authorities to personal data transferred pursuant to these Clauses in accordance with the laws of the country of destination; such notification shall include all information available to the importer.
If the data importer is prohibited from notifying the data exporter and/or the data subject under the laws of the country of destination, the data importer agrees to use its best efforts to obtain a waiver of the prohibition, with a view to communicating as much information as possible, as soon as possible. The data importer agrees to document its best efforts in order to be able to demonstrate them on request of the data exporter.
Where permissible under the laws of the country of destination, the data importer agrees to provide the data exporter, at regular intervals for the duration of the contract, with as much relevant information as possible on the requests received (in particular, number of requests, type of data requested, requesting authority/ies, whether requests have been challenged and the outcome of such challenges, etc.).
The data importer agrees to preserve the information pursuant to paragraphs (a) to (c) for the duration of the contract and make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.
Paragraphs (a) to (c) are without prejudice to the obligation of the data importer pursuant to Clause 14(e) and Clause 16 to inform the data exporter promptly where it is unable to comply with these Clauses.

15.2 Review of legality and data minimisation

The data importer agrees to review the legality of the request for disclosure, in particular whether it remains within the powers granted to the requesting public authority, and to challenge the request if, after careful assessment, it concludes that there are reasonable grounds to consider that the request is unlawful under the laws of the country of destination, applicable obligations under international law and principles of international comity. The data importer shall, under the same conditions, pursue possibilities of appeal. When challenging a request, the data importer shall seek interim measures with a view to suspending the effects of the request until the competent judicial authority has decided on its merits. It shall not disclose the personal data requested until required to do so under the applicable procedural rules. These requirements are without prejudice to the obligations of the data importer under Clause 14(e).
The data importer agrees to document its legal assessment and any challenge to the request for disclosure and, to the extent permissible under the laws of the country of destination, make the documentation available to the data exporter. It shall also make it available to the competent supervisory authority on request.
The data importer agrees to provide the minimum amount of information permissible when responding to a request for disclosure, based on a reasonable interpretation of the request.

SECTION IV – FINAL PROVISIONS

Clause 16

Non-compliance with the Clauses and termination

The data importer shall promptly inform the data exporter if it is unable to comply with these Clauses, for whatever reason.
In the event that the data importer is in breach of these Clauses or unable to comply with these Clauses, the data exporter shall suspend the transfer of personal data to the data importer until compliance is again ensured or the contract is terminated. This is without prejudice to Clause 14(f).
The data exporter shall be entitled to terminate the contract, insofar as it concerns the processing of personal data under these Clauses, where:
1. the data exporter has suspended the transfer of personal data to the data importer pursuant to paragraph (b) and compliance with these Clauses is not restored within a reasonable time and in any event within one month of suspension;
2. the data importer is in substantial or persistent breach of these Clauses; or
3. the data importer fails to comply with a binding decision of a competent court or supervisory authority regarding its obligations under these Clauses.
In these cases, it shall inform the competent supervisory authority of such non-compliance. Where the contract involves more than two Parties, the data exporter may exercise this right to termination only with respect to the relevant Party, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise.
Personal data that has been transferred prior to the termination of the contract pursuant to paragraph (c) shall at the choice of the data exporter immediately be returned to the data exporter or deleted in its entirety. The same shall apply to any copies of the data.] The data importer shall certify the deletion of the data to the data exporter. Until the data is deleted or returned, the data importer shall continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses. In case of local laws applicable to the data importer that prohibit the return or deletion of the transferred personal data, the data importer warrants that it will continue to ensure compliance with these Clauses and will only process the data to the extent and for as long as required under that local law.
Either Party may revoke its agreement to be bound by these Clauses where (i) the European Commission adopts a decision pursuant to Article 45(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 that covers the transfer of personal data to which these Clauses apply; or (ii) Regulation (EU) 2016/679 becomes part of the legal framework of the country to which the personal data is transferred. This is without prejudice to other obligations applying to the processing in question under Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

Clause 17

Governing law

These Clauses shall be governed by the law of one of the EU Member States, provided such law allows for third-party beneficiary rights. The Parties agree that this shall be the law of Ireland.

Clause 18

Choice of forum and jurisdiction

Any dispute arising from these Clauses shall be resolved by the courts of an EU Member State.
The Parties agree that those shall be the courts of Ireland.
A data subject may also bring legal proceedings against the data exporter and/or data importer before the courts of the Member State in which he/she has his/her habitual residence.
The Parties agree to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of such courts.

Part 2: Mandatory Clauses

Entering into this Addendum

Each Party agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set out in this Addendum, in exchange for the other Party also agreeing to be bound by this Addendum.
Although Annex 1A and Clause 7 of the Approved EU SCCs require signature by the Parties, for the purpose of making Restricted Transfers, the Parties may enter into this Addendum in any way that makes them legally binding on the Parties and allows data subjects to enforce their rights as set out in this Addendum. Entering into this Addendum will have the same effect as signing the Approved EU SCCs and any part of the Approved EU SCCs.

Interpretation of this Addendum

Where this Addendum uses terms that are defined in the Approved EU SCCs those terms shall have the same meaning as in the Approved EU SCCs. In addition, the following terms have the following meanings:

Addendum	This International Data Transfer Addendum which is made up of this Addendum incorporating the Addendum EU SCCs.
Addendum EU SCCs	The version(s) of the Approved EU SCCs which this Addendum is appended to, as set out in Table 2, including the Appendix Information.
Appendix Information	As set out in Table ‎3.
Appropriate Safeguards	The standard of protection over the personal data and of data subjects’ rights, which is required by UK Data Protection Laws when you are making a Restricted Transfer relying on standard data protection clauses under Article 46(2)(d) UK GDPR.
Approved Addendum	The template Addendum issued by the ICO and laid before Parliament in accordance with s119A of the Data Protection Act 2018 on 2 February 2022, as it is revised under Section ‎18.
Approved EU SCCs	The Standard Contractual Clauses set out in the Annex of Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 of 4 June 2021.

UK	The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
UK Data Protection Laws	All laws relating to data protection, the processing of personal data, privacy, and/or electronic communications in force from time to time in the UK, including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
UK GDPR	As defined in section 3 of the Data Protection Act 2018.

This Addendum must always be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with UK Data Protection Laws and so that it fulfils the Parties’ obligation to provide the Appropriate Safeguards.
If the provisions included in the Addendum EU SCCs amend the Approved SCCs in any way which is not permitted under the Approved EU SCCs or the Approved Addendum, such amendment(s) will not be incorporated in this Addendum and the equivalent provision of the Approved EU SCCs will take their place.
If there is any inconsistency or conflict between UK Data Protection Laws and this Addendum, UK Data Protection Laws apply.
If the meaning of this Addendum is unclear or there is more than one meaning, the meaning that most closely aligns with UK Data Protection Laws applies
Any references to legislation (or specific provisions of legislation) mean that legislation (or specific provision) as it may change over time. This includes where that legislation (or specific provision) has been consolidated, re-enacted and/or replaced after this Addendum has been entered into.

Hierarchy

Although Clause 5 of the Approved EU SCCs sets out that the Approved EU SCCs prevail over all related agreements between the parties, the parties agree that, for Restricted Transfers, the hierarchy in Section ‎10 will prevail.
Where there is any inconsistency or conflict between the Approved Addendum and the Addendum EU SCCs (as applicable), the Approved Addendum overrides the Addendum EU SCCs, except where (and in so far as) the inconsistent or conflicting terms of the Addendum EU SCCs provides greater protection for data subjects, in which case those terms will override the Approved Addendum.
Where this Addendum incorporates Addendum EU SCCs which have been entered into to protect transfers subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 then the Parties acknowledge that nothing in this Addendum impacts those Addendum EU SCCs.

Incorporation of and changes to the EU SCCs

This Addendum incorporates the Addendum EU SCCs which are amended to the extent necessary so that:
1. together they operate for data transfers made by the data exporter to the data importer, to the extent that UK Data Protection Laws apply to the data exporter’s processing when making that data transfer, and they provide Appropriate Safeguards for those data transfers;

3. this Addendum (including the Addendum EU SCCs incorporated into it) is (1) governed by the laws of England and Wales and (2) any dispute arising from it is resolved by the courts of England and Wales, in each case unless the laws and/or courts of Scotland or Northern Ireland have been expressly selected by the Parties.

15. The footnotes to the Approved EU SCCs do not form part of the Addendum, except for footnotes 8, 9, 10 and 11.

Amendments to this Addendum

The Parties may agree to change Clauses 17 and/or 18 of the Addendum EU SCCs to refer to the laws and/or courts of Scotland or Northern Ireland.
If the Parties wish to change the format of the information included in Part 1: Tables of the Approved Addendum, they may do so by agreeing to the change in writing, provided that the change does not reduce the Appropriate Safeguards.
From time to time, the ICO may issue a revised Approved Addendum which:
1. makes reasonable and proportionate changes to the Approved Addendum, including correcting errors in the Approved Addendum; and/or
2. reflects changes to UK Data Protection Laws;
The revised Approved Addendum will specify the start date from which the changes to the Approved Addendum are effective and whether the Parties need to review this Addendum including the Appendix Information. This Addendum is automatically amended as set out in the revised Approved Addendum from the start date specified.
If the ICO issues a revised Approved Addendum under Section ‎18, if any Party selected in Table 4 “Ending the Addendum when the Approved Addendum changes”, will as a direct result of the changes in the Approved Addendum have a substantial, disproportionate and demonstrable increase in:
1. its direct costs of performing its obligations under the Addendum; and/or
2. its risk under the Addendum,
and in either case it has first taken reasonable steps to reduce those costs or risks so that it is not substantial and disproportionate, then that Party may end this Addendum at the end of a reasonable notice period, by providing written notice for that period to the other Party before the start date of the revised Approved Addendum.
The Parties do not need the consent of any third party to make changes to this Addendum, but any changes must be made in accordance with its terms.
