GOOGLE PLATFORM LICENSE AGREEMENT
1. Provision of Services.
1.1 Services Use. Google will provide the Services to Customer. Subject to the terms of the Agreement, Google hereby grants to Customer a worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-transferable (except as provided in Section 15.2), non-exclusive, limited license during the Term to: (a) access and use the Services, (b) integrate the Services into any Application, and provide the Services, solely as integrated into the Application, to users of the Application, and (c) access and use any and all Software provided by Google as part of the Services. Customer may allow its contractors and agents to access and use the Services solely on behalf of Customer, provided that Customer is liable for any breach of the Agreement by such contractors or agent as though such breach were caused by Customer.
1.2 Use of the Services by Customer Affiliates. Customer may allow its Affiliates to access and use the Services and Software under the Account. Any such use will count towards Customer's usage for the purposes of calculating the Fees. Customer will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that its Affiliates comply in all respects with Customer's obligations under the Agreement as if they were Customer. Any act or omission by a Customer Affiliate in connection with the Services will be deemed to be an act or omission of Customer. Nothing in the Agreement creates or confers any rights or other benefits that are enforceable by a Customer Affiliate except as otherwise agreed to in the Agreement. However, Customer may, subject to any exclusions and limitations of liability in the Agreement, recover any loss or damage suffered by a Customer Affiliate under the Agreement as if such loss or damage were Customer's.
2. Provision of the Services.
2.1 Console. As part of receiving the Services, Customer will have access to the Admin Console, through which Customer may administer the Services.
2.2 Security. Throughout the Term, Google will ensure that the facilities used by Google to store and process each Application and all Customer Data at all times use appropriate and sufficient security measures, including that: (a) are no less protective than the security measures set forth in the Data Processing and Security Terms set forth in Exhibit D hereto and (b) meet or exceed industry standards. Google will implement and maintain, throughout the Term, security measures, systems and procedures to (x) ensure the security and confidentiality of each Application and all Customer Data, (y) protect against anticipated and actual threats or hazards to the security, privacy or integrity of each Application and all Customer Data, and (z) protect against unauthorized access to, or disclosure or use of any Application or Customer Data.
2.3 Data Location. Customer may select the location where certain Customer Data will be stored ("Data Location Selection"), and Google will store the Customer Data in the Data Location Selection in accordance with the Service Specific Terms. If a Data Location Selection is not available under the Service Specific Terms (or a Data Location Selection is not made by Customer with respect to any Customer Data), Google may process and store the
-3- | CONFIDENTIAL | |||
[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
Customer Data anywhere Google or its agents maintain facilities in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and the terms of the Agreement. By using the Services, Customer consents to this processing and storage of the Application and Customer Data in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. The parties agree that Google acts as a data processor and not a controller with respect to the Customer Data. The terms "controller", "personal data", "processor" and "processes" have the same meanings as given to those terms under the European Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC), as the same may be modified or amended from time to time.
2.4 Model Contract Clauses. If Customer chooses to enter into Model Contract Clauses with Google, Customer must accept the Model Contract Clauses via the Admin Console, provided however that the Model Contract Clauses attached to the Agreement as Exhibit E supersede the Model Contract Clauses available via the Admin Console. To the extent that other jurisdictions require or adopt similar mandates, Google agrees to work in good faith with Customer to enter into similar agreements relating to Customer Data that contains personal data subject to such mandates and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
2.5 Privacy Shield. Google is enrolled in the U.S. Department of Commerce and European Commission EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Program and will remain enrolled in this program or another replacement program (or will adopt a compliance solution which achieves compliance with the terms of Article 25 of Directive 95/46/EC) throughout the Term.
2.6 Accounts. Customer must have an Account and a Token (if applicable) to use the Services. Customer is responsible for the accuracy of the information it provides to create the Account, the security of the Token and its passwords for the Account, and for any use of its Account and the Token (other than as a result of any act or omission of Google). Google has no obligation to provide Customer multiple Tokens or Accounts. If Customer becomes aware of any unauthorized use of Customer's password, Account, or Token, it will notify Google as promptly as possible.
2.7 New Services. Google may make new Services available to its customers from time to time, the use of which will be at Customer's option and may be contingent upon Customer's agreement to additional terms, but will in all cases be subject to the same legal terms and conditions of the Agreement.
2.8 Modifications.
(a) To the Services or Admin Console. Google may make commercially reasonable updates to the Services for all of its customers from time to time, including by adding new applications, tools, features, functionality or performance to the Services or providing new versions, updates, upgrades, patches, fixes, successor or replacement services to the existing Services, in each case, under the terms and conditions of the Agreement. [*]
(b) To the URL Terms. Google may make commercially reasonable changes to the URL Terms for all of its customers from time to time. [*]

[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
2.9 Deprecation Policy. Google will notify Customer in writing (which may be via email) if it intends to make a Significant Deprecation. Google will continue providing the Deprecation Covered Services without a Significant Deprecation for at least [*] after that notification; except to the extent that Google determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that (i) it cannot do so without [*] (ii) doing so would [*] and/or [*]. This policy is the "Deprecation Policy". If Google discontinues any Services or makes a Significant Deprecation, [*]. For Services other than the Deprecation Covered Services, Google may discontinue any such Services or any portion or feature for any reason at any time.
2.10 Service Specific Terms. The Service Specific Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into the Agreement.
2.11 SLAs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the SLAs, any financial credit provided to Customer under the SLAs will be in addition to and not in lieu or limitation of any other rights or remedies Customer is entitled to under the Agreement or at law or in equity, including Customer's right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3.
2.12 Viruses. Except to the extent that any of the items set forth in this Section 2.12 are caused by Customer or its End Users, the Services will not contain any viruses, worms, spyware, traps, protecting codes or trap door devices, or any other internal devices or mechanisms which could cause such Services to cease functioning or to provide improper access to Customer Data, disclose Customer Data to unauthorized parties, damage or corrupt Customer Data or otherwise interfere with Customer's operation.
2.13 Early Access Programs. Google will allow Customer to engage in Google Cloud Platform early access programs which may be related to machine learning initiatives. Such engagement will be subject to the terms of such early access program.
3. Payment Terms.
3.1 Usage and Invoicing. Customer will pay Fees based on: (a) its use of the Services; (b) any Reserved Units selected; (c) any Committed Purchases selected; and/or (d) any Package Purchases selected. Google will invoice Customer on a monthly basis for those Fees accrued by it at the end of each month. Data describing in reasonable detail the basis upon which such Fees were calculated will be available in the Admin Console.
3.2 Payment. Customer will pay all undisputed Fees and Taxes invoiced to it, [*]. All payments due are in U.S. dollars. Payments made via wire transfer must include the bank information provided by Google.
3.3 Taxes. Customer is responsible for any Taxes, and Customer will pay Google the undisputed amounts for the Services without any reduction for Taxes. If Google is obligated to collect or pay Taxes, the Taxes will be itemized and invoiced to Customer, unless Customer provides Google with a timely and valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. In some states the sales tax is due on the total purchase price at the time of sale and must be invoiced and collected at the time of the sale. If Customer is required by law to withhold any Taxes from its payments to Google, Customer must provide Google with an official tax receipt or other appropriate documentation to support such withholding. To the extent applicable, the parties will cooperate in getting exemptions from withholding tax, if any.

[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
3.4 [*]
3.5 Invoice Disputes. [*]. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer's withholding or deduction of any disputed amount will not constitute a breach of the Agreement. If the parties determine that certain billing inaccuracies are attributable to Google, Google will not issue a corrected invoice, but will instead, issue a credit memo specifying the incorrect amount in the affected invoice. If the disputed invoice has not yet been paid then, in such a case, Google will apply the credit memo amount to the disputed invoice and Customer will be responsible for paying the resulting net balance of the undisputed amounts due on that invoice. [*].
3.6 Delinquent Payments.
(a) A payment of undisputed Fees and Taxes is delinquent to the extent that Google has not received it by the Invoice Due Date ("Delinquent Payment"). Subject to Section 3.6(b) below, Delinquent Payments may bear interest at the rate of [*] (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) beginning [*] after the Invoice Due Date until paid in full. Customer will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually incurred by Google in collecting such Delinquent Payment amounts except where such Delinquent Payment amounts are due to Google's billing inaccuracies.
(b) [*]. In the event Google determines to suspend Customer's Account, Google will notify Customer in writing at least [*] before implementing such suspension.
(c) If there are any Delinquent Payments that are delinquent by more than [*] from the Invoice Due Date, more than [*], Google may terminate the Agreement; provided that for each occurrence of a Delinquent Payment, Google had provided Customer with notice of such Delinquent Payment and had provided Customer an opportunity to cure such Delinquent Payment pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Agreement.
3.7 Revising Fees. Subject to and except for the Fees or any discount pricing set forth in any pricing addenda or other agreement between the parties, including the Pricing Exhibit, [*].
3.8 Purchase Orders.
(a) Required. If Customer requires a purchase order number on its invoice, Customer will select "Yes" in the purchase order section of the Ordering Document and issue a purchase order to Google. If Customer requires a purchase order, and fails to provide the purchase order to Google, then Google will not be obligated to provide the Services until Google has received the purchase order. If Customer requires an updated purchase order to cover its actual usage under the Agreement, then Customer will provide an additional purchase order to Google. If Customer fails to provide an
-6- | CONFIDENTIAL | |||
[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
additional purchase order to cover its actual usage prior to the end of the current month, then (i) Google will invoice Customer without a purchase order number for such actual usage; and (ii) Customer will pay invoices without a purchase order number referenced for such actual usage.
(b) Not Required. If Customer does not require a purchase order number to be included on the invoice, Customer must select "No" in the purchase order section of the Ordering Document. If Customer waives the purchase order requirement pursuant to this Section (b), then: (i) Google will invoice Customer without a purchase order; and (ii) Customer will pay invoices without a purchase order.
(c) Any terms and conditions on a purchase order do not apply to the Agreement and are null and void.
4. Customer Obligations.
4.1 Compliance.

The results of such review and all information reviewed during such review will be deemed Customer's Confidential Information. Google will be solely responsible for the costs and expenses of any such review. If such review reveals a violation of the Acceptable Use Policy, Google will provide Customer with written notice describing the violation in reasonable detail and a reasonable period of time after Customer's receipt of such written notice to cure such violation.

Google responds to notices of alleged copyright infringement and terminates accounts of repeat infringers according to the process set out in the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If Customer thinks somebody is violating Customer's or its End Users' copyrights and wants to notify Google, Customer can find information about submitting notices, and Google's policy about responding to notices at http://www.google.com/dmca.html.

[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
1. Data Center and Network Security
(a) Data Centers.
i. | Infrastructure. Google maintains geographically distributed data centers. Google stores all production data in physically secure data centers. |
ii. | Redundancy. Infrastructure systems have been designed to eliminate single points of failure and minimize the impact of anticipated environmental risks. Dual circuits, switches, networks or other necessary devices help provide this redundancy. The Services are designed to allow Google to perform certain types of preventative and corrective maintenance without interruption. All environmental equipment and facilities have documented preventative maintenance procedures that detail the process for and frequency of performance in accordance with the manufacturer's or internal specifications. Preventative and corrective maintenance of the data center equipment is scheduled through a standard change process according to documented procedures. |
iii. | Power. The data center electrical power systems are designed to be redundant and maintainable without impact to continuous operations, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In most cases, a primary as well as an alternate power source, each with equal capacity, is provided for critical infrastructure components in the data center. Backup power is provided by various mechanisms such as uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) batteries, which supply consistently reliable power protection during utility brownouts, blackouts, over voltage, under voltage, and out-of-tolerance frequency conditions. If utility power is interrupted, backup power is designed to provide transitory power to the data center, at full capacity, for up to 10 minutes until the diesel generator systems take over. The diesel generators are capable of automatically starting up within seconds to provide enough emergency electrical power to run the data center at full capacity typically for a period of days. |
iv. | Server Operating Systems. Google servers use a Linux based implementation customized for the application environment. Data is stored using proprietary algorithms to augment data security and redundancy. Google employs a code review process to increase the security of the code used to provide the Services and enhance the security products in production environments. |
v. | Businesses Continuity. Google replicates data over multiple systems to help to protect against accidental destruction or loss. Google has designed and regularly plans and tests its business continuity planning/disaster recovery programs. |
(b) Networks and Transmission.
i. | Data Transmission. Data centers are typically connected via high-speed private links to provide secure and fast data transfer between data centers. This is designed to prevent data from being read, copied, altered or removed without authorization during electronic transfer or transport or while being recorded onto data storage media. Google transfers data via Internet standard protocols. |
-34- | CONFIDENTIAL | |||
[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
ii. | External Attack Surface. Google employs multiple layers of network devices and intrusion detection to protect its external attack surface. Google considers potential attack vectors and incorporates appropriate purpose built technologies into external facing systems. |
iii. | Intrusion Detection. Intrusion detection is intended to provide insight into ongoing attack activities and provide adequate information to respond to incidents. Google intrusion detection involves: |
1. | tightly controlling the size and make-up of Google's attack surface through preventative measures; |
2. | employing intelligent detection controls at data entry points; and |
3. | employing technologies that automatically remedy certain dangerous situations |
iv. | Incident Response. Google monitors a variety of communication channels for security incidents, and Google's security personnel will react promptly to known incidents. |
v. | Encryption Technologies. Google makes HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS connection) available. Google servers support ephemeral elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman cryptographic key exchange signed with RSA and ECDSA. These perfect forward secrecy (PFS) methods help protect traffic and minimize the impact of a compromised key, or a cryptographic breakthrough. |
2. Access and Site Controls
(a) Site Controls.
i. | On-site Data Center Security Operation. Google's data centers maintain an on-site security operation responsible for all physical data center security functions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The on-site security operation personnel monitor closed circuit TV (CCTV) cameras and all alarm systems. On-site security operation personnel perform internal and external patrols of the data center regularly. |
ii. | Data Center Access Procedures. Google maintains formal access procedures for allowing physical access to the data centers. The data centers are housed in facilities that require electronic card key access, with alarms that are linked to the on-site security operation. All entrants to the data center are required to identify themselves as well as show proof of identity to on-site security operations. Only authorized employees, contractors and visitors are allowed entry to the data centers. Only authorized employees and contractors are permitted to request electronic card key access to these facilities. Data center electronic card key access requests must be made through e-mail, and requires the approval of the requestor's manager and the data center director. All other entrants requiring temporary data center access must: (i) obtain approval in advance from the data center managers for the specific data center and internal areas they wish to visit; (ii) sign in at on-site security operations; and (iii) reference an approved data center access record identifying the individual as approved. |
-35- | CONFIDENTIAL | |||
[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
iii. | On-site Data Center Security Devices. Google's data centers employ an electronic card key and biometric access control system that is linked to a system alarm. The access control system monitors and records each individual's electronic card key and when they access perimeter doors, shipping and receiving, and other critical areas. Unauthorized activity and failed access attempts are logged by the access control system and investigated, as appropriate. Authorized access throughout the business operations and data centers is restricted based on zones and the individual's job responsibilities. The fire doors at the data centers are alarmed. CCTV cameras are in operation both inside and outside the data centers. The positioning of the cameras has been designed to cover strategic areas including, among others, the perimeter, doors to the data center building, and shipping/receiving. On-site security operations personnel manage the CCTV monitoring, recording and control equipment. Secure cables throughout the data centers connect the CCTV equipment. Cameras record on site via digital video recorders 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The surveillance records are retained for up to 30 days based on activity. |
(b) Access Control.
i. | Infrastructure Security Personnel. Google has, and maintains, a security policy for its personnel, and requires security training as part of the training package for its personnel. Google's infrastructure security personnel are responsible for the ongoing monitoring of Google's security infrastructure, the review of the Services, and responding to security incidents. |
ii. | Access Control and Privilege Management. Customer's administrators must authenticate themselves via a central authentication system or via a single sign on system in order to administer the Services. |
iii. |
Internal Data Access Processes and Policies Access Policy. Google's internal data access processes and policies are designed to prevent unauthorized persons and/or systems from gaining access to systems used to process personal data. Google designs its systems to (i) only allow authorized persons to access data they are authorized to access; and (ii) ensure that personal data cannot be read, copied, altered or removed without authorization during processing, use and after recording. The systems are designed to detect any inappropriate access. Google employs a centralized access management system to control personnel access to production servers, and only provides access to a limited number of authorized personnel. LDAP, Kerberos and a proprietary system utilizing RSA keys are designed to provide Google with secure and flexible access mechanisms. These mechanisms are designed to grant only approved access rights to site hosts, logs, data and configuration information. Google requires the use of unique user IDs, strong passwords, two factor authentication and carefully monitored access lists to minimize the potential for unauthorized account use. The granting or modification of access rights is based on: the |
-36- | CONFIDENTIAL | |||
[*] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
authorized personnel's job responsibilities; job duty requirements necessary to perform authorized tasks; and a need to know basis. The granting or modification of access rights must also be in accordance with Google's internal data access policies and training. Approvals are managed by workflow tools that maintain audit records of all changes. Access to systems is logged to create an audit trail for accountability. Where passwords are employed for authentication (e.g., login to workstations), password policies that follow at least industry standard practices are implemented. These standards include password expiry, restrictions on password reuse and sufficient password strength. For access to extremely sensitive information (e.g. credit card data), Google uses hardware tokens. |
3. Data
(a) Data Storage, Isolation and Logging. Google stores data in a multi-tenant environment on Google-owned servers. The data and file system architecture are replicated between multiple geographically dispersed data centers. Google also logically isolates the Customer's data. The Customer will be given control over specific data sharing policies. Those policies, in accordance with the functionality of the Services, will enable Customer to determine the product sharing settings applicable to Customer End Users for specific purposes. Customer may choose to make use of certain logging capability that Google may make available via the Services.
(b) Decommissioned Disks and Disk Erase Policy. Certain disks containing data may experience performance issues, errors or hardware failure that lead them to be decommissioned ("Decommissioned Disk"). Every Decommissioned Disk is subject to a series of data destruction processes (the "Disk Erase Policy") before leaving Google's premises either for reuse or destruction. Decommissioned Disks are erased in a multi-step process and verified complete by at least two independent validators. The erase results are logged by the Decommissioned Disk's serial number for tracking. Finally, the erased Decommissioned Disk is released to inventory for reuse and redeployment. If, due to hardware failure, the Decommissioned Disk cannot be erased, it is securely stored until it can be destroyed. Each facility is audited regularly to monitor compliance with the Disk Erase Policy.
4. Personnel Security
a. | Google personnel are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the company's guidelines regarding confidentiality, business ethics, appropriate usage, and professional standards. Google conducts reasonably appropriate backgrounds checks to the extent legally permissible and in accordance with applicable local labor law and statutory regulations. |
b. | Personnel are required to execute a confidentiality agreement and must acknowledge receipt of, and compliance with, Google's confidentiality and privacy policies. Personnel are provided with security training. Personnel handling Customer Data are required to complete additional requirements appropriate to their role (e.g., certifications). Google's personnel will not process Customer Data without authorization. |

Data Center Access Procedures. The Data Importer maintains formal access procedures for allowing physical access to the data centers. The data centers are housed in facilities that require electronic card key access, with alarms that are linked to the on-site security operation. All entrants to the data center are required to identify themselves as well as show proof of identity to on-site security operations. Only authorized employees, contractors and visitors are allowed entry to the data centers. Only authorized employees and contractors are permitted to request electronic card key access to these facilities. Data center electronic card key access requests must be made through e-mail, and requires the approval of the requestor's manager and the data center director. All other entrants requiring temporary data center access must: (i) obtain approval in advance from the data center managers for the specific data center and internal areas they wish to visit; (ii) sign in at on-site security operations; and (iii) reference an approved data center access record identifying the individual as approved.
On-site Data Center Security Devices. The Data Importer's data centers employ an electronic card key and biometric access control system that is linked to a system alarm. The access control system monitors and records each individual's electronic card key and when they access perimeter doors, shipping and receiving, and other critical areas. Unauthorized activity and failed access attempts are logged by the access control system and investigated, as appropriate. Authorized access throughout the business operations and data centers is restricted based on zones and the individual's job responsibilities. The fire doors at the data centers are alarmed. CCTV cameras are in operation both inside and outside the data centers. The positioning of the cameras has been designed to cover strategic areas including, among others, the perimeter, doors to the data center building, and shipping/receiving. On-site security operations personnel manage the CCTV monitoring, recording and control equipment. Secure cables throughout the data centers connect the CCTV equipment. Cameras record on site via digital video recorders 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The surveillance records are retained for up to 30 days based on activity.
(b) Access Control.
Infrastructure Security Personnel. The Data Importer has, and maintains, a security policy for its personnel, and requires security training as part of the training package for its personnel. The Data Importer's infrastructure security personnel are responsible for the ongoing monitoring of the Data Importer's security infrastructure, the review of the Services, and responding to security incidents.
Access Control and Privilege Management. The Data Exporter's administrators must authenticate themselves via a central authentication system or via a single sign on system in order to administer the Services.
Internal Data Access Processes and Policies Access Policy. The Data Importer's internal data access processes and policies are designed to prevent unauthorized persons and/or systems from gaining access to systems used to process personal data. The Data Importer designs its systems to: (i) only allow authorized persons to access data they are authorized to access; and (ii) ensure that personal data cannot be read, copied, altered or removed without authorization during processing, use and after recording. The systems are designed to detect any inappropriate access. The Data Importer employs a centralized access management system to control personnel access to

production servers, and only provides access to a limited number of authorized personnel. LDAP, Kerberos and a proprietary system utilizing RSA keys are designed to provide the Data Importer with secure and flexible access mechanisms. These mechanisms are designed to grant only approved access rights to site hosts, logs, data and configuration information. The Data Importer requires the use of unique user IDs, strong passwords, two factor authentication and carefully monitored access lists to minimize the potential for unauthorized account use. The granting or modification of access rights is based on: the authorized personnel's job responsibilities; job duty requirements necessary to perform authorized tasks; and a need to know basis. The granting or modification of access rights must also be in accordance with The Data Importer's internal data access policies and training. Approvals are managed by workflow tools that maintain audit records of all changes. Access to systems is logged to create an audit trail for accountability. Where passwords are employed for authentication (e.g., login to workstations), password policies that follow at least industry standard practices are implemented. These standards include password expiry, restrictions on password reuse and sufficient password strength. For access to extremely sensitive information (e.g., credit card data), the Data Importer uses hardware tokens.
3. Data.
(a) Data Storage, Isolation & Logging.
The Data Importer stores data in a multi-tenant environment on the Data Importer-owned servers. The data and file system architecture are replicated between multiple geographically dispersed data centers. The Data Importer also logically isolates the Data Exporter's data, and the Data Exporter will be given control over specific data sharing policies. Those policies, in accordance with the functionality of the Services, will enable the Data Exporter to determine the product sharing settings applicable to end users for specific purposes. The Data Exporter may choose to make use of certain logging capability that the Data Importer may make available via the Services.
(b) Decommissioned Disks and Disk Erase Policy.
Certain disks containing data may experience performance issues, errors or hardware failure that lead them to be decommissioned ("Decommissioned Disk"). Every Decommissioned Disk is subject to a series of data destruction processes (the "Disk Erase Policy") before leaving the Data Importer's premises either for reuse or destruction. Decommissioned Disks are erased in a multi-step process and verified complete by at least two independent validators. The erase results are logged by the Decommissioned Disk's serial number for tracking. Finally, the erased Decommissioned Disk is released to inventory for reuse and redeployment. If, due to hardware failure, the Decommissioned Disk cannot be erased, it is securely stored until it can be destroyed. Each facility is audited regularly to monitor compliance with the Disk Erase Policy.
4. Personnel Security.
The Data Importer personnel are required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the company's guidelines regarding confidentiality, business ethics, appropriate usage, and professional standards.
