23.3 The parties acknowledge and agree that the allocation of the role of Controller, joint Controller or Processor is a question of fact rather than being determined by contractual agreement.

23.4 Notwithstanding its obligations under clause 23.1, where Clone Media (as a Processor) processes Agreement Personal Data on behalf of the Customer (as a Controller), Clone Media in each case shall at all times in relation to Agreement Personal Data:

e) ensure that access to the Agreement Personal Data is strictly limited to persons (including any employee or sub-processor) who need access to it as necessary to perform Clone Media’s obligations under these Conditions and that all such persons are subject to contractual or statutory obligations of confidentiality and given appropriate training in the care and handling of Personal Data;
f) keep complete and accurate records of processing activity carried out by Clone Media in accordance with these Conditions as required by the Data Protection Legislation;
g) ensure that Agreement Personal Data is kept secure and shall implement and at all times maintain appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the Agreement Personal Data (ensuring in each case a level of security appropriate to the risk) to prevent, and take prompt and proper remedial action against, unauthorised or unlawful processing (including access, copying, modification, storage, reproduction, display, disclosure or distribution) accidental loss of or damage to the Agreement Personal Data;
h) provide to the Customer on reasonable written request a written description of the technical and organisational measures in place to protect the Agreement Personal Data as required under clause 23.4g) above;

b. from within the EEA to a territory that is outside of the EEA that is not otherwise subject to an Adequacy Decision,
such a transfer being in each case an “International Transfer”. Clone Media shall provide the Customer with notification of the intended International Transfer and, unless the Customer notifies Clone Media in writing of the Customer’s objection to the intended International Transfer within 14 calendar days of receiving such notice (such objection to be based on reasonable data protection grounds), the Customer shall be deemed to have authorised the International Transfer. Subject to Clone Media’s compliance with clauses 23.4j) and 23.4k) below, the Customer hereby authorises those International Transfers in place at the Commencement Date, a summary of which shall be made available by Clone Media to the Customer on reasonable written request;
j) where the Customer gives its authorisation to an International Transfer under clause 23.4i), subject to clause 23.4k), Clone Media shall ensure that there are appropriate safeguards in place to protect the Agreement Personal Data in accordance with Data Protection Legislation (which may include entering into European Commission or UK Government (as applicable) approved Standard Contractual Clauses or such other safeguards agreed by the European Commission and the UK Government). Each party agrees to use all reasonable endeavours to procure that it shall, and where applicable any necessary third party (including any sub-processor) shall, promptly execute and deliver such documents and perform such acts as may be required to ensure that any International Transfer (as defined below) is compliant with Data Protection Legislation, including but not limited to where European Commission or UK Government (as applicable) approved Standard Contractual Clauses are deemed invalid, replaced or updated by the European Commission and/or UK Government;
k) where an International Transfer takes place and the data recipient is based in an operating territory of the Customer providing local services in that territory and is therefore not subject to the Data Protection Legislation, Clone Media’s obligations in relation to that International Transfer is limited to including in its contract with that data recipient such provisions as are reasonably requested by the Customer to enable the Customer comply with its obligations under applicable data protection law in relation to the International Transfer;
l) promptly notify the Customer in writing of any notices received by Clone Media (or any sub-processor) relating to the processing of any Agreement Personal Data, including requests from individual Data Subjects in relation to the exercise of their rights (including subject access requests), complaints and/or correspondence from any regulatory body including any competent data protection supervisory authority and provide such reasonable information and assistance as the Customer may reasonably require in relation to any such notice;

e. promptly (and in any event within three (3) calendar days of becoming aware of the breach) provide the Customer with details in writing of the steps and measures taken to investigate the breach and mitigate associated risks to Data Subjects; and
f. comply with all reasonable requests made by the Customer in respect of the same;
p) on termination or expiry of the Contract or these Conditions, at the Customer’s option, return or securely delete all Agreement Personal Data and copies of it at any time, unless Clone Media is required by applicable law to continue to process that Agreement Personal Data, in which case Clone Media shall promptly notify the Customer, in writing, of what that applicable law is and all other requirements set out in this clause 23.4 shall continue to apply to such Agreement Personal Data for as long as such Agreement Personal Data is processed by Clone Media;
q) not permit any processing of the Agreement Personal Data by any agent, sub-contractor, company or other third party (“sub-processor”) without the prior authorisation of the Customer in each case. Clone Media shall provide the Customer with at least 14 calendar days’ written notice of any new or replacement sub-processor and, unless the Customer notifies Clone Media in writing of the Customer’s objection to the appointment of the sub-processor within 14 calendar days of receiving such notice (such objection to be based on reasonable data protection grounds), the Customer shall be deemed to have authorised the appointment of the sub-processor. When appointing a sub-processor in accordance with these Conditions, Clone Media shall ensure in each case that prior to the sub-processor processing any Agreement Personal Data the sub-processor shall enter a written contract with Clone Media which is on terms substantially similar to those set out in this clause 23.4.

29.1 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:
a) the other party commits a material breach of its obligations under the Contract and (if such breach is remediable) fails to remedy that breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice in writing to do so;
b) the other party takes any step or action in connection with its entering administration, provisional liquidation or any composition or arrangement with its creditors (other than in relation to a solvent restructuring), obtaining a moratorium, being wound up (whether voluntarily or by order of the court, unless for the purpose of a solvent restructuring), having a receiver appointed to any of its assets or ceasing to carry on business or, if the step or action is taken in another jurisdiction, in connection with any analogous procedure in the relevant jurisdiction;
c) the other party suspends, or threatens to suspend, or ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or a substantial part of its business; or
d) the other party’s financial position deteriorates so far as to reasonably justify the opinion that its ability to give effect to the terms of the Contract is in jeopardy.
29.2 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, Clone Media may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the Customer if the Customer fails to make any payment owing from it to Clone Media from time to time and howsoever arising in full within three days of the due date of such payment.
