Data Protection Impact Assessment and Prior Consultation

Nerdio will provide reasonable assistance to Customer with any data protection impact assessments, and prior consultations with Supervising Authorities or other competent data privacy authorities, which Customer reasonably considers to be required of Customer by article 35 or 36 of the GDPR or equivalent provisions of any other Data Protection Law, in each case solely in relation to Processing of Customer Personal Data by, and taking into account the nature of the Processing and information available to, the Contracted Processors.

10.3.5. The disclosures made pursuant to this section 10 shall be held in confidence as Nerdio’s confidential information and subject to any confidentiality obligations in the Agreement; and

10.3.6.
