Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for International Data Transfers

Effective Date: June 4, 2021. The Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) remain unchanged and continue to apply as referenced in our Data Processing Agreement (DPA).

These Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are incorporated into and form an integral part of the LogicManager Data Processing Agreement (DPA). These SCCs apply automatically to all cross-border transfers of Personal Data from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom (UK), and Switzerland to jurisdictions without an adequacy decision. By continuing to use LogicManager’s services, you acknowledge the binding nature of these SCCs for such data transfers.

This Addendum (the “Addendum”) is made as of the Effective Date of the Data Processing Agreement (DPA) and is incorporated into and forms part of the LogicManager DPA between:

  • Data Exporter: LogicManager Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of Ireland, with its principal place of business at 12 Merrion Square N, Dublin 2, D02 H798, Ireland.
  • Data Importer: LogicManager, Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of the United States, with its principal place of business at 6 Liberty Square #2316 Boston, MA 02109.
  1. Purpose and Scope

1.1 The purpose of this Addendum is to incorporate the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) (2021/914) into the DPA, ensuring compliance with GDPR when transferring Personal Data from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland to a third country outside these jurisdictions.

1.2 The parties agree that the applicable SCCs include:

  • Module 2 (Controller-to-Processor) where the Data Exporter is acting as a Controller and the Data Importer is acting as a Processor.
  • Module 3 (Processor-to-Processor) where the Data Exporter is acting as a Processor and the Data Importer is acting as a Subprocessor.
  1. Definitions

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this SCC shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Master Subscription Agreement (MSA) and the Data Processing Agreement (DPA) executed between the Parties. For clarity, the definitions, rights, and obligations set forth in the MSA and DPA are hereby incorporated by reference into this SCC.
