2.2 Details of Data Processing. The subject matter of Processing Customer Data by Hostinger is the performance of the Covered Services pursuant to the Terms of Service. Hostinger shall only process Customer Data for the following purposes: (i) Processing in accordance with the Terms of Service; (ii) Processing initiated by end users in their use of the Covered Services; (iii) Processing to comply with other documented, reasonable instructions provided by Customers (ex. via email) where such instructions are consistent with the Terms of Service. Hostinger shall not: (a) process, retain, use, sell, or disclose Customer Data except as necessary to provide Covered Services pursuant to the Terms of Service, or as required by law; (b) sell such Customer Data to any third party; (c) retain, use, or disclose such Customer Data outside of the direct business relationship between Hostinger and Customer, unless otherwise required by law.
For the avoidance of doubt, Processing of Customer Data shall comply with all Data Protection Laws. Customer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, and legality of Customer Data and the means by which Customer acquired Customer Data. If Customer is a Controller of the Customer Data, Customer acknowledges and agrees as follows: (i) Customer must use commercially reasonable efforts to disclose clearly, and obtain consent to, any data collection, sharing and usage that takes place on any Covered Services; and (ii) Customer must make clear that as a consequence of your use of Covered Services, end user’s data may be processed outside of their country of origin. If Customer is a Processor of the Customer Data, Customer warrants that Customer’s instructions and actions with respect to Customer Data, including the appointment of Hostinger as another Processor, have been authorized by the relevant Controller. Hostinger shall not be required to comply with or observe Customer’s instructions if such instructions would violate Data Protection Laws. The duration of the Processing, the nature and purpose of the Processing, the types of Personal Data and categories of Data Subjects Processed under this Addendum are further specified in Appendix 1 (‘Details of the Processing’) to this Addendum.
3. CONFIDENTIALITY OF CUSTOMER DATA
Hostinger will not disclose Customer Data to any government or any other third party, except as necessary to comply with the law or a valid and binding order of a law enforcement agency (such as a subpoena or court order). In the event Hostinger receives a valid civil subpoena, and to the extent permitted, Hostinger will endeavor to provide Customer with reasonable notice of the demand via email or postal mail to allow Customer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy (unless otherwise required by subpoena, court order or any other valid legal document).
4. SHARED RESPONSIBILITY MODEL OF SECURITY
4.1 Hostinger has implemented and will maintain the technical and organizational measures for the Hostinger Network as described herein this Section and as further described in Appendix 2 to this Addendum, Security Standards. In particular, Hostinger has implemented and will maintain the following technical and organizational measures that address the (i) security of the Hostinger Network; (ii) physical security of the facilities; (iii) controls around employee and contractor access to (i) and/or (ii); and (iv) processes for testing, assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organizational measures implemented by Hostinger. In the event that we are not able to meet any of our obligations set forth herein, we will provide written notice (via our website or email) as soon as practically feasible.
4.2 Hostinger makes available a number of security features and functionalities that Customer may elect to use in relation to the Covered Services. Customer is responsible for (a) properly configuring the Covered Services, (b) using the controls available in connection with the Covered Services (including the security controls) to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of Processing systems and services, (c) taking such steps as Hostinger considers adequate to maintain appropriate security, protection, and deletion of Customer Data, which includes use of encryption technology to protect Customer Data from unauthorized access and measures to control access rights to Customer Data.
5. DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS
Taking into account the nature of the Covered Services, Hostinger offers Customer certain controls that Customer may elect to use to retrieve, correct, delete or restrict use and sharing of Customer Data as described in the Covered Services. Customer may use these controls as technical and organizational measures to assist it in connection with its obligations under Data Protection Laws, including its obligations relating to responding to requests from Data Subjects. As commercially reasonable, and to the extent lawfully required or permitted, Hostinger shall promptly notify Customer if Hostinger directly receives a request from a Data Subject to exercise such rights under any applicable Data Protection Laws (“Data Subject Request”). In addition, where Customer’s use of the Covered Services limits its ability to address a Data Subject Request, Hostinger may, where legally permitted and appropriate and upon Customer’s specific request, provide commercially reasonable assistance in addressing the request, at Customer’s cost (if any).
6. SUB-PROCESSING
6.1 Authorized Sub-Processors. Customer agrees that Hostinger may use Sub-Processors to fulfil its contractual obligations under its Terms of Service and this Addendum or to provide certain services on its behalf, such as providing support services. Customer hereby consents to Hostinger’s use of Sub-Processors as described in this Section.
6.2 Sub-Processor Obligations. Where Hostinger uses any authorized sub-Processor as described in Section 6.1:
(i) Hostinger will restrict the sub-Processor’s access to Customer Data only to what is necessary to maintain the Covered Services or to provide the Covered Services to Customer and any end users in accordance with the Terms of Service. Hostinger will prohibit the sub-Processor from accessing Customer Data for any other purpose;
(ii) Hostinger will enter into a written agreement with the sub-Processor and, to the extent that the sub-Processor is performing the same data Processing services that are being provided by Hostinger under this Addendum, Hostinger will impose on the sub-Processor substantially similar contractual obligations that Hostinger has under this Addendum; and
(iii) Hostinger will remain responsible for its compliance with the obligations of this Addendum and for any acts or omissions of the sub-Processor that cause Hostinger to breach any of Hostinger’s obligations under this Addendum.
6.3 New Sub-Processors. From time to time, Hostinger may engage new Sub-Processors under and subject to the terms of this Addendum. New Sub-Processors will be added to the Appendix 3. If Customer does not approve of a new Sub-Processor, then Customer may terminate any Covered Services without penalty by providing, within 10 days or receipt of notice from Hostinger, written notice of termination that includes an explanation of the reasons for your non-approval. If the Covered Services are part of a bundle or bundled purchase, then any termination will apply to its entirety.
7. SECURITY INCIDENT
7.1 Security Incident. If Hostinger becomes aware of a Security Incident, Hostinger will without undue delay: (a) notify Customer of the Security Incident; and (b) take reasonable steps to mitigate the effects and to minimize any damage resulting from the Security Incident.
7.2 Hostinger Assistance. To assist Customer in relation to any Personal Data breach notifications Customer is required to make under Data Protection Laws, Hostinger will include in the notification such information about the Security Incident as Hostinger is reasonably able to disclose to Customer, taking into account the nature of the Covered Services, the information available to Hostinger, and any restrictions on disclosing the information, such as confidentiality.

7.4 Notification. Notification of Security Incidents, if any, will be delivered to one or more of Customer’s administrators by any means Hostinger selects, including via email. It is Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure Customer’s administrators maintain accurate contact information on the Hostinger management console and secure transmission at all times.
7.5 No Acknowledgement of Fault by Hostinger: Hostinger’s obligation to report or respond to a Security Incident under this Section is not and will not be construed as an acknowledgement by Hostinger of any fault or liability of Hostinger with respect to the Security Incident.
8. CUSTOMER RIGHTS
8.1 Independent Determination. Customer is responsible for reviewing the information made available by Hostinger relating to data security and its Security Standards and making an independent determination as to whether the Covered Services meets Customer’s requirements and legal obligations as well as Customer’s obligations under this Addendum. The information made available is intended to assist Customer in complying with Customer’s obligations under applicable Data Protection Laws. Customer agrees that the Covered Services and the Security Standards implemented and maintained by Hostinger provide a level of security appropriate to the risk to Personal Data (taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the Processing of Personal Data as well as the risks to individuals).
8.2 Customer Audit Rights. Customer has the right to confirm Hostinger’s compliance with this Addendum as applicable to the Covered Services by making a specific request in writing, at reasonable intervals, to the address set forth in the Terms of Service.
