Data processing policy

Last updated: August 2026

Pursuant to the Agreement, CloudKnife provides the Platform and the Services (both as defined below) to the Customer (as defined below). The provision of the Platform and the Service leads to the collection and processing of Personal Data (as defined below) by CloudKnife, in its capacity as a data processor, on behalf of the Customer. Therefore, CloudKnife provides the Customer with this Data Processing Policy (“DPP”) which sets out (i) how CloudKnife shall manage, process and secure the Personal Data; as well as (ii) all parties’ obligations to comply with the Privacy Legislation (as defined below).

Further, CloudKnife is allowed to engage Sub-processor(s) pursuant to the requirements set forth in Article 7.

2.2 Each party shall comply with its respective obligations under the Privacy Legislation with respect to the processing of the Personal Data.

3. USE OF THE PLATFORM AND/OR THE SERVICES

3.1 The Customer acknowledges explicitly that:

  • CloudKnife purely acts as a facilitator of the Platform and/or the Services. Hence, the Customer shall be solely responsible on how and to what extent he/she makes use of the Platform and/or the Services as well as for all Personal Data collected through the Platform;
  • It is responsible for all acts and omissions of Authorised Users (i.e. in case the Authorised User does (not) take sufficient measures to protect its account on the Platform);
  • As a result of the use of the Platform, a number of connections between the Customer’s technological infrastructure and the Platform shall be made. Data shall however only be uploaded upon approval of the Customer;
  • It is responsible for the material and/or data provided by the Data Subject. The Customer is, as Controller, thus responsible for complying with the Privacy Legislation and/or any other regulations with regard to aforementioned material and/or data; and,
  • It shall comply with all laws and regulations (such as, but not limited to: with regard to the retention period or rights of the Data Subject) imposed on it by making use of the Service.

3.2 The Customer shall avoid any misuse of the Services. In case of misuse by the Customer of the Platform and/or the Services, the Customer agrees that CloudKnife can never be held liable in this respect nor for any damage that would occur from such misuse.

3.3 The Customer therefore undertakes to safeguard CloudKnife when such misuse would occur as well as for any claim from a Data Subject and/or third party due to such misuse.

4. OBJECT

4.1 Customer acknowledges that as a consequence of making use of the Platform and/or the Services of CloudKnife, the latter shall Process Personal Data as collected by the Customer. The nature and purpose of said processing, as well as a description of the Personal Data and categories of Data Subjects processed under the Agreement are further specified in Annex I.

4.2 CloudKnife shall always Process the Personal Data in a proper and careful way and in accordance with the Privacy Legislation and other applicable rules concerning the Processing of Personal Data.

4.3 More specifically, CloudKnife shall:

  • during the performance of the Assignment – provide all its know-how in order to perform the Assignment according to the rules of art, as it fits a specialized and ‘good’ processor; and,
  • shall adopt, to the best of its abilities, the necessary security measures (cfr. Annex II) and provide all its know-how in order to perform the Service in accordance with the rules of art.

4.4 The Customer keeps full control concerning the following: (i) how the Personal Data must be processed by CloudKnife; (ii) the types of Personal Data processed; (iii) the categories of Data Subjects whose Personal Data is subjected to the processing; (iv) the purpose of the processing; and (v) the fact whether such processing is proportionate.

4.5 This DPP is without prejudice to the provisions of the Agreement with regard to ‘Data Protection’.

5. INSTRUCTIONS FROM / RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CUSTOMER

5.1 Instructions: CloudKnife shall only process the Personal Data upon the Customer’s request and in accordance with the Customer’s lawful instructions in Annex I, unless any legal obligation states otherwise. CloudKnife shall inform the Customer, if in its opinion, the instructions infringe the Privacy Legislation. If the Customer subsequently cannot guarantee the validity or legality of the instruction or fails or refuses to change the unlawful instruction so that it no longer violates the Privacy Legislation, CloudKnife shall be entitled to (i) suspend/refuse the performance of said instruction and (ii) at its discretion, to either continue to process the Personal Data in accordance with previously provided instructions or to stop the processing altogether, until the Customer has revised its instruction so that it no longer violates the Privacy Legislation

5.2 Responsibilities: Furthermore, the Customer acknowledges that it is responsible for:

  • the accuracy, quality and legality of (the collection and transfer of) the Personal Data;
  • compliance with all transparency and lawfulness requirements under the Privacy Legislation for the collection and processing of the Personal Data and the transfer thereof to CloudKnife; and,
  • ensuring compliance of its instructions (cfr. Annex I) with the Privacy Legislation.

5.3 Customer shall inform CloudKnife without undue delay if it is not able to comply with its responsibilities under this Section or the Privacy Legislation.

6. SECURITY OF PROCESSING

6.1 CloudKnife takes the security of the Processing activities very seriously. CloudKnife shall at least implement the technical and organisational measures specified in Annex II to ensure the security of the Personal Data. This includes protecting the data against a breach of security leading to accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access to the data (Personal Data Breach). In assessing the appropriate level of security, CloudKnife and the Customer shall take due account of the state of the art, the costs of implementation, the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing and the risks involved for the Data Subjects.

7. SUB-PROCESSORS

7.1 Approval of Sub-processor list

7.1.1 The Customer acknowledges and agrees that CloudKnife may engage Sub-processors in connection with provision of the Service (and the performance of the Agreement). In such case, CloudKnife shall ensure that the Sub-processors are at least bound by the same obligations by which CloudKnife is bound under this DPP.

7.1.2 CloudKnife has currently appointed as Sub-processors its Affiliates and other third parties as listed in Annex III.

7.1.3 CloudKnife shall be liable for the acts and omissions of its Sub-processors to the same extent as if it would be performing the Service/processing of the Personal Data itself, directly under the terms of this DPP.

7.2 Update of the Sub-processor list

7.2.1 CloudKnife shall:

  • update the list whenever a Sub-processor changes (e.g. a new Sub-processor was added, a Sub-processor was substituted, etc.);
  • clearly indicate the changes in the list; and,
  • add a timestamp (i) when the list was updated, and (ii) when the change of the Sub-processor went or will go into effect.

7.2.2 CloudKnife shall notify the Customer (e.g. on the Website or through the Platform) when changes to the list are made.

7.3 Objection

7.3.1 If the Customer wishes to exercise its right to object to a new Sub-processor, it shall notify CloudKnife in writing (cfr. Article 10) and based on reasonable grounds by the latest within thirty (30) days after the notification. If the Customer fails to object within the aforementioned timeframe it shall be deemed to have waived its right to object and to have authorised CloudKnife to engage the new Sub-processor.

7.3.2 In the event aforementioned objection is not found unreasonable by CloudKnife, parties will discuss the Customer’s concerns with a view to achieving a reasonable solution. Such solution may include, at CloudKnife’s discretion, to (i) make available to the Customer a change in the Service; or (ii) recommend a commercially reasonable change to the Customer’s use of the Service to avoid the processing of the Personal Data by the objected new Sub-processor without unreasonably burdening the Customer.

7.3.3 If the parties are, however, unable to come to a solution within a reasonable period of time (which shall not exceed thirty (30) days following the objection of the Customer), the Customer may terminate the Service (in whole or partly) if:

  • the Service/Platform cannot be used by the Customer without appealing to the objected new Sub-processor; or,
  • such termination solely concerns that part of the Service which cannot be provided by CloudKnife without appealing to the objected new Sub-processor;

and this by providing written notice thereof to CloudKnife (cfr. Article 15) within a reasonable time.

7.3.4 Termination of the Service within the meaning of Article 7.3.3 shall be without liability to either party (but without prejudice to any Fees incurred by the Customer prior to suspension or termination of the Service).

8. TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE THE EEA

8.1 The Personal Data shall be processed within the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

8.2 However, the Customer recognizes that CloudKnife is entitled to transfer and store the Personal Data to countries outside the EEA for the purpose of providing the Service and fulfilling its obligations under the Agreement, and provided that such transfer/storage is done in accordance with the Privacy Legislation regarding additional safeguards. In particular, any transfer of Personal Data outside the EEA by CloudKnife to a third party whose domicile or registered office is in a country which does not fall under an adequacy decision enacted by the European Commission, shall be additionally subject to one or more of the listed EU-approved safeguards:

  • European Commission Adequacy decision
  • closing a data transfer agreement: with the third country recipient, which shall contain the standard contractual clauses, as referred to in the ‘European Commission implementing decision of 4 June 2021 (Decision (EU) 2021/914) on standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to third countries pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council’, including the performance of a transfer impact assessment. Before the transfer takes place, the recipient of the Personal Data/Sub-processor of CloudKnife in the third country has to guarantee CloudKnife that an adequate level of privacy compliance is ensured in this third party country;
  • binding corporate rules: As it is the case for standard contractual clauses, the recipient of Personal Data/Sub-processor of CloudKnife in the third country has to guarantee CloudKnife that an adequate level of privacy compliance is ensured in the third party country; and/or,
  • certification mechanisms.

8.3 In the event the transfer (or disclosure) of the Personal Data to a third country is required by EU law, EU member state law or law of the United Kingdom to which CloudKnife is subject to, CloudKnife shall inform the Customer of that legal requirement before the transfer/disclosure, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest.

9. CONFIDENTIALITY

9.1 CloudKnife shall maintain the Personal Data confidential and thus not disclose nor transfer any Personal Data to third parties, without the prior permission of the Customer, unless when such disclosure and/or announcement is required by law or by a court or other government decision (of any kind). In such case CloudKnife shall, prior to any disclosure and/or announcement, inform you in full transparency on the scope and manner thereof.

9.2 CloudKnife shall ensure that its personnel, engaged in the performance of the Agreement, are informed of the confidential nature of the Personal Data, have received appropriate training on their responsibilities and have executed written confidentiality agreements. CloudKnife shall ensure that such confidentiality obligations survive the termination of the personnel engagement.

9.3 CloudKnife shall ensure that its access to Personal Data is limited to such personnel performing the Assignment in accordance with the Policy.

9.4 The Customer acknowledges the login information to be strictly personal and ensures not to share this information with any third parties.

10. NOTIFICATION

10.1 Notification. CloudKnife shall use its best efforts to inform the Customer as soon as reasonably possible when it:

  • receives a request for information, a subpoena or a request for inspection or audit from a competent public authority (incl. supervisory authority) in relation to the processing of the Personal Data;
  • receives a request from a Data Subject invoking its privacy rights under the Privacy Legislation (cfr. Article 10.3);
  • has the intention to disclose Personal Data to a competent public authority (incl. supervisory authority); or,
  • determines or reasonably suspects a personal data breach has occurred in relation to the Personal Data.

10.2 Personal data breach. In case of a personal data breach, CloudKnife:

  • shall notify the Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of this personal data breach and, to the extent possible, provide the information as required by Privacy Legislation (e.g. Article 33.3 GDPR). Upon request of the Customer, CloudKnife shall provide – to the extent possible – assistance with respect to the Customer’s reporting obligation under the Privacy Legislation;
  • undertakes – as soon as reasonably possible – to take appropriate remedial actions to make an end to the personal data breach (if such has occurred under its responsibility) and to prevent and/or limit any future personal data breaches.

10.3 Rights of Data Subjects

10.3.1 CloudKnife shall promptly notify the Customer if it receives a request from a Data Subject invoking its privacy rights under the Privacy Legislation. CloudKnife shall not respond to any such Data Subject request without the Customer’s prior written consent, except to confirm that the request relates to the Customer to which the Customer hereby agrees.

10.3.2 If a Data Subject requests to exercise his/her/their rights, it is the Customer’s responsibility to assist the Data Subject in its request. Only if the Customer does not have the ability to correct, amend, block or delete the Personal Data (as required by Privacy Legislation), CloudKnife shall assist the Customer (as long as commercially reasonable).

10.3.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Customer remains responsible for compliance of such Data Subject requests.

10.4 Data Protection Impact Assessment. Taking into account the nature of the processing and to the extent that (i) a data protection impact assessment is required under Privacy Legislation and (ii) the required information is reasonable available to CloudKnife and the Customer does not otherwise have access to said information, CloudKnife shall – upon request of the Customer – provide reasonable assistance to the Customer with the execution of a data protection impact assessment and possible prior consultation with the competent supervisory authorities. To the extent permitted by the Privacy Legislation, the Customer shall be responsible for any costs arising from CloudKnife’ provisions of such assistance.

11. LIABILITY

11.1 Both parties are solely liable for all damage, claims and/or fines of third parties, competent supervisory authorities or Data Subjects that are the result of their own breach of or non-compliance with (i) the provisions of this DPP, and (ii) the Privacy Legislation or other applicable rules concerning Personal Data. Each party shall indemnify the other party in this regard.

11.2 In case of a proven breach by CloudKnife of its obligations under this DPP or under the Privacy Legislation, CloudKnife shall:

  • be liable for the proven direct damages incurred by the Customer;
  • not be liable for indirect, immaterial and/or consequential damages, including (but not limited to:) loss of profit, loss of opportunities, loss of and/or damage to data, loss of reputation, sanctions and/or fines, and unforeseeable damages.

11.3 CloudKnife’s liability towards the Customer shall in any case be limited to the total amount paid by the Customer to CloudKnife during the last twelve (12) months under the Agreement.

11.4 The provisions in this Section shall be without prejudices to any other liabilities as agreed upon in the Agreement.

12. TERM

12.1 The total term of this DPP shall be the term of the Agreement. If no term is determined, this DPP shall remain in force as long as the Service has not come to an end.

13. RETURN AND DELETION OF PERSONAL DATA

13.1 CloudKnife shall only retain the Personal Data as long as needed to provide the Service or for the term of the Agreement (cfr. Article 12). The Customer accepts that CloudKnife may create back-ups of the Personal Data stored on the Platform.

13.2 Upon termination of the Service or the Agreement, the following shall apply:

  • the Service and Platform shall be deactivated. Any Personal Data, stored on the Platform shall as from that moment no longer be available to the Customer;
  • the Customer may request the Personal Data to be returned (‘export’) within thirty (30) days following the end of the Agreement or the Service, upon which CloudKnife shall assess whether such export is possible from a technical perspective. In any event, CloudKnife may, at its sole discretion, determine the format of the export. CloudKnife reserves the right to charge any costs relating to such exports to the Customer;
  • after said thirty (30) days-period, the Personal Data on the CloudKnife Platform shall be deleted within one (1) month, unless it is required by applicable law to retain the Personal Data; and,
  • the Personal Data may be present on back-ups. The Personal Data shall be deleted once the last back-up containing the Personal Data is rotated.

13.3 Please note that data or material provided to or submitted to CloudKnife by the Customer during the use of the Service may be further stored and processed by CloudKnife for further optimization of the product and services following the termination of the Agreement or the Service.

14. COMPLIANCE / INSPECTIONS

14.1 Compliance. Upon the Customer’s request, CloudKnife shall make available to the Customer all information necessary and to the extent as requested by law to demonstrate its compliance with its obligations under this DPP.

14.2 Inspections

14.2.1 CloudKnife shall allow the Customer (or a third party on its behalf) to carry out inspections – such as, but not limited to: an audit – and shall provide the necessary assistance thereto.

14.2.2 However, the Customer shall limit its initiatives to perform an inspection to a maximum of once a year. The Customer must notify CloudKnife at least thirty (30) working days in advance. The performance of inspections may in any case not cause any delay in the performance of the Service by CloudKnife.

14.2.3 The Customer shall impose sufficient confidentiality obligations on its (internal/external) auditors. As to ensure the confidentiality of other Customers, CloudKnife has the right to require from the Customer and its auditors to sign a non-disclosure agreement before the start of the inspection and to limit the scope of the inspection or the access of the Customers to certain premises

14.2.4 All inspection costs are exclusively borne by the Customer, except if (and to the extent that) a severe security incident/personal data breach (at CloudKnife/under CloudKnife’s responsibility) or a violation of this DPP is determined during the inspection.

15.1 Notifications by the Customer under this DPP and/or any questions or concerns with regard to the provisions of this DPP must be directed at privacy@cloudknife.com.

16. MISCELLANEOUS

16.1 If one or more provisions of this agreement are found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remainder of that provision and of this agreement shall remain in full force and effect as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Moreover, in such event, Parties shall negotiate to replace the invalid provision by an equivalent provision in accordance with the spirit of this agreement. If Parties do not reach an agreement, then the competent court may mitigate the invalid provision to what is (legally) permitted.

16.2 Deviations, alterations and/or additions to this Policy shall only be valid and binding to the extent that they have been accepted in writing by both parties.

16.3 This Policy and the corresponding rights and obligations that exist in respect of the Parties, cannot be transferred, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the other party.

16.4 (Repeatedly) non-enforcement by a party or by both parties of any right or provision of this Policy, can only be regarded as a toleration of a certain state, and does not lead to forfeiture.

16.5 This Policy prevails to any other agreement between the parties.

17. GOVERNING LAW & JURISDICTION

Annex II: Technical and organisational security measures

This document entails the technical and organisational security measures implemented by CloudKnife in support of its (Processing) activities, as set forth by the Privacy Legislation.

1. PASSWORD MANAGEMENT

All CloudKnife employees exclusively use a centralized password management tool, for generating, storing, and managing passwords. Each Platform or account has a unique password, created using a password generator, to prevent credential reuse. Shared passwords are stored in a dedicated shared folder within the centralized password management tool, with access limited to CloudKnife employees requiring the credentials for their job duties. The principle of least privilege is applied to ensure that CloudKnife employees only have the access necessary for their responsibilities. All accounts are secured with multi-factor authentication (2FA), with passkeys or authenticator apps preferred over SMS codes.

2. CONFIDENTIALITY AND INCIDENT REPORTING

CloudKnife employees are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of all work-related data and accounts. CloudKnife employees using Mac devices enable FileVault for disk encryption to safeguard sensitive company data. Any suspected or actual security incidents, such as unauthorized access or compromise of the centralized password management tool, is reported immediately to the IT or Security department.

3. PHYSICAL SECURITY

CloudKnife employees are issued personal, non-transferable badges for office access. Lost or stolen badges are reported immediately to the IT or Security department for deactivation and replacement to maintain physical security integrity.

4. DATABASE ACCESS CONTROL

Developers are assigned dedicated accounts for accessing company databases. Access is restricted to the minimum data necessary for specific job responsibilities, with additional permissions requiring prior approval. Service accounts in Microsoft Azure are configured with minimal rights to ensure security. All database and service account activities are logged and monitored, with unauthorized access attempts flagged for investigation.

5. PHISHING AWARENESS AND PREVENTION

We actively implement measures to prevent phishing attempts targeting CloudKnife employees and company data. CloudKnife employees are trained to recognize common phishing red flags, such as unusual senders, generic greetings, urgent messages, and suspicious links or attachments. We ensure that all sensitive requests are verified through official channels, and encourage CloudKnife employees to hover over links before clicking to confirm their legitimacy. We also provide clear guidelines on reporting suspicious emails, which CloudKnife employees report immediately through dedicated IT channels. If an employee interacts with a phishing attempt, we take immediate action, including isolating devices, notifying IT, and following steps to mitigate any damage, such as resetting passwords or scanning for malware. Additionally, we conduct regular phishing awareness training and simulated phishing tests to continuously reinforce vigilance and readiness across the organization.
