DPA (Data Processing Agreement)
Definition
A DPA (Data Processing Agreement) is the contract required by Article 28 of the GDPR between a data controller (the client) and a processor (such as Certyneo). It specifies the purposes of processing, categories of data, security measures, conditions for further subprocessing, and obligations in case of breach. A DPA must be executed before any processing of personal data of signatories. Certyneo offers a standard DPA appended to its Terms and Conditions.
