For Processing subject to EU/UK GDPR, the EU/UK Transfer Addendum in Annex D applies, and the parties will implement appropriate transfer mechanisms (e.g., EU SCCs (2021/914) with the UK Addendum).

Security Incidents; Notifiable Data Breaches

Liability; Indemnity

The parties agree that the exclusions and limitations of liability in the Agreement apply to this DPA. Nothing in this DPA expands Uncapt's liability beyond the Agreement.

This DPA takes effect on the Effective Date of the first Order that references it and continues for as long as Uncapt Processes Personal Information on behalf of Customer under the Agreement.
