C4        Data Protection

This section shall apply only to Ultimate Toolkit Subscribers who are carrying out a business or who are a registered company, partnership or other such corporate body.

C4.1     You and Shoot shall comply with the Data Protection Laws.

C4.2     Shoot will be the data controller of any data that the Collaborator registers directly with Shoot as a user of Shoot’s Website. However, where you upload Collaborator personal data such as an e-mail address or garden name/address into your user area and Shoot stores it in our database on your behalf, Shoot will be a data processor of such Collaborator personal data and Shoot will:

C4.2.1    act strictly in accordance with your lawful and reasonable instructions (which may be received via your use of the Website and/or Services) unless applicable law requires otherwise, in which case Shoot shall inform you of that legal requirement before processing (unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest). Shoot shall inform you if it becomes aware of an instruction by you that, in Shoot’s opinion, infringes the Data Protection Laws.

C4.2.2    ensure that its personnel that are authorised to process the personal data in connection with the provision of the Website and/or Services have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;

C4.2.3    implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect the personal data in accordance with Data Protection Laws;

C4.2.4    enable you to access, rectify, erase, restrict and transmit the personal data processed by Shoot;

C4.2.5    if a data subject requests information from Shoot concerning the processing of personal data by you, promptly forward the request to you;

C4.2.6    provide reasonable assistance to enable you to comply with your obligations under Data Protection Laws, including using appropriate technical and organisational measures to assist you in responding to data subject access requests;

C4.2.7    make available to you all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set out in this clause C4.2, and ensure that Shoot and/or any sub-processor will conduct audits using external auditors at least once per year.

C4.3     Shoot shall provide a storage service in respect of the personal information held within our database on your behalf. This storage service shall continue for five years after the date of termination of the Services. You may delete or request in writing the deletion or return of all personal data on termination of the Services or at any time following termination of the Services until the termination of the storage services.  Where you have not deleted the personal data prior to the termination of the Services, Shoot will delete all personal data on termination of the storage services unless otherwise required by applicable law.

C4.4     You acknowledge and accept that the Collaborator (or any data subject to which the personal data relates) shall also have the right to withdraw their consent to the use of their personal data or information at any time and may request that Shoot permanently delete all information and data held about that Collaborator from Shoot’s systems. In the event that a Collaborator (or any data subject to which the personal data relates) exercises its rights in this clause C4.4, Shoot shall notify you and you shall promptly and permanently delete all information and data held about that Collaborator from Shoot’s systems.  In the event that you have not done so within a reasonable time, and have not notified Shoot of your requirement for Shoot to retain the personal data along with your basis for doing so, Shoot shall remove such personal data as requested, and shall not be liable in any way for any loss or damage suffered you howsoever arising.

C4.5     You shall ensure that your collection and use of any personal data, accessed through the Website and/or the Services, complies with the Data Protection Laws. You hereby indemnify Shoot against all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including but not limited to legal costs) arising from or incurred by reason of your failure to comply with this clause C4.

C4.6     You hereby give Shoot a general consent to engage sub-processors to process your personal data. Shoot uses the following sub-processors:

Where Shoot intends to change or add a new sub-processor it shall amend these terms to reflect the new sub-processor at least 30 days before transferring any personal data to a new sub-processor (“Sub-processor Notice Period”). You shall notify Shoot during the Sub-processor Notice Period if you object to the new sub-processor. If you do not object to the sub-processor during the Sub-processor Notice Period, you shall be deemed to have accepted the sub-processor. If you have raised a reasonable objection to the new sub-processor, and the parties have failed to agree on a solution within the Sub-processor Notice Period time, you shall have the right to terminate the Contract (including the Services) by giving 14 days’ notice in writing to Shoot. Where you provide a notice of termination in accordance with this clause C4.6, we will provide you with a refund of the Charges less a pro rata proportion of the Charges representing the provision of the Services up to and including the date you terminate the Contract. During the Sub-Processor Notice Period, Shoot shall not transfer any personal data to the sub-processor.

C4.7        Shoot shall enter into appropriate written agreements with all of its sub-processors on terms that include all the required obligations on data processors, as set out in the Data Protection Laws, including without limitation to ensure that the sub-processor will conduct audits using external auditors at least once per year. Shoot shall remain fully liable to you for the performance or non-performance of the sub-processors’ obligations.
