Data processing addendum (DPA)
Effective May 1, 2026
This DPA forms part of the agreement between Informly and the Customer for processing of personal data on the Customer's behalf. It covers GDPR, UK GDPR, and CCPA obligations applicable to Informly as a processor / service provider.
1. Roles
The Customer is the controller (or processor on behalf of its own customers). Informly is the processor (or sub-processor where the Customer is itself a processor). Each party will comply with its respective obligations under applicable data protection law.
2. Scope of processing
Subject matter: provision of the Informly service. Duration: the contract term plus deletion/return periods. Nature + purpose: hosting, transmitting, and analyzing personal data submitted by the Customer to deliver the service. Data subjects: end-customers of the Customer. Categories of data: contact identifiers, survey responses, transactional and behavioral data, and ticket content.
3. Customer instructions
Informly processes personal data only on documented Customer instructions, including transfers to third countries, unless required by law (in which case Informly will inform the Customer beforehand unless prohibited).
4. Confidentiality
Personnel authorized to process personal data are bound by confidentiality. Access is restricted to those with a need-to-know basis.
5. Security
Informly implements appropriate technical and organizational measures, including those described on our Security page. Customer may request our current security documentation under NDA.
6. Sub-processors
Customer authorizes Informly to engage sub-processors listed at /legal/sub-processors. We notify Customer at least 30 days before adding a sub-processor; Customer may object on reasonable data-protection grounds.
7. Data subject rights
Informly provides tools to help Customer respond to data subject requests. Where requests come to Informly directly, we forward them to Customer without responding, unless legally required.
8. Personal data breaches
Informly notifies Customer of a personal data breach affecting Customer data without undue delay (and in any case within 72 hours of becoming aware), providing the information required for Customer to fulfill its own notification obligations.
9. International transfers
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA/UK to a country without an adequacy decision, the parties rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (EU SCCs) and UK International Data Transfer Addendum (UK IDTA), incorporated by reference, with supplementary measures as described in our transfer impact assessment.
10. Audits
Customer may, no more than once per year and on reasonable prior notice, audit Informly's compliance through (a) review of independent audit reports (SOC 2 once available), or (b) a written questionnaire. On-site audits are available for enterprise customers on reasonable notice.
11. Deletion + return
On termination, Informly deletes or returns all personal data within 30 days, unless law requires longer retention.
12. Order of precedence
In case of conflict, this DPA prevails over other terms with respect to processing of personal data. Standard Contractual Clauses prevail over this DPA for transfers they cover.
