RINGO undertakes to put in place appropriate technical and organisational security measures to ensure the security of the Personal Data it processes against any destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, or any other form of unauthorised processing. In assessing the appropriate level of security, RINGO takes 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.

 

Eine Beschreibung dieser Maßnahmen wurde von RINGO in Übereinstimmung mit Artikel 32 der GDPR erstellt und ist auf schriftliche Anfrage erhältlich.

 

Wenn die Funktion AI Assistant vom Client aktiviert wird, stimmt der Client zu, dass die implementierten Sicherheitsmaßnahmen denen der OpenAI-Sicherheitsrichtlinie entsprechen.

At the request of the Client, RINGO shall also permit and contribute to audits of the processing activities covered by this Contract, at reasonable intervals or  if there are indications of non-compliance.

 

The reasonable intervals mean that an audit may be carried out at the rate of one (1) time per calendar year, and with sixty (60) days' written notice to RINGO.

 

Diese Prüfung muss in einer Weise durchgeführt werden, die die Sicherheit und Vertraulichkeit von RINGOs Dokumentation und Verfahren respektiert. It will last no more than one (1) day and will be held during normal business hours at RINGO's location.

 

The Controller may decide to carry out the audit itself or to appoint an independent auditor, chosen by mutual agreement between the parties and subject to an obligation of confidentiality.

The parties shall make the information set out in this clause, including the results of any audit, available to the competent supervisory authority(ies) on request.

 

7 - Use of sub-processors

 

RINGO has the Client’s general  authorisation for the engagement of sub-processors enumerated in the  agreed list (Annex 1).

 

RINGO verpflichtet sich, auf Anfrage des Kunden eine aktuelle Liste seiner Sub-Prozessoren und deren Verarbeitungstätigkeiten bereitzustellen.

 

RINGO shall inform the Client of any intended changes of that list through the addition or replacement of sub-processors at least eight (8) days prior to the addition or the replacement date of the concerned sub-processor.

 

The Client may object to RINGO use of a new sub-processor by notifying RINGO promptly in writing (e.g., via email) and before the addition or the replacement date of the concerned sub-processor. In the event the Client objects, RINGO will use reasonable efforts to make available to the Client a change in the Service or recommend a commercially reasonable change to Client’s configuration or use of the Service to avoid process of Personal Data by the objected-to new sub-processor If RINGO is unable to make available such change within a reasonable period of time, which shall not exceed thirty (30) days, the Client may terminate the applicable Order Form with respect only to those services which cannot be provided by RINGO without the use of the objected-to new sub-processor by providing written notice to RINGO, with return receipt requested.

 

Das Fehlen von Einwänden des Kunden wird als Zustimmung des Kunden zu den Änderungen, die sich auf die Liste der Unterprozessoren auswirken, angesehen.

 

Where RINGO engages a sub-processor for carrying out specific processing activities on behalf of the Client, the sub-processor of RINGO is obliged to fulfil, in substance,  the same data protection  obligations as the ones imposed on RINGO in accordance with  this Contract It is the responsibility of RINGO to ensure that the sub-processor presents sufficient guarantees as to the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures so that the processing meets the requirements of GDPR.

 

RINGO bleibt dem Kunden gegenüber voll verantwortlich für die Erfüllung seiner Verpflichtungen durch seine Sub-Prozessoren.

 

Einige Subprozessoren verarbeiten Client-Daten nur dann, wenn die Funktion, für die sie wirken, vom Administrator oder dem Benutzer des Clients aktiviert wird.

 

Thus, the sub-processor OpenAI processes Client data only when the Administrator has activated the AI Assistant . When this feature is enabled, OpenAI will process Client data for the provision of intelligent summaries, chapters and scoring. 

 

Similarly, the sub-processor Deepl only processes Customer data when the User activates the translation feature for a specific record. When this feature is activated, Deepl will process the Client's data related to this record in order to provide a translation.
