Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

### 1. General

For the data processing activities described in the respective Annex 1 of this agreement, where TeamViewer acts as the Customer’s Processor, the parties agree to the following provisions on the commissioned processing of personal data, which shall supplement the TeamViewer End User License Agreement (EULA) (Data Processing Agreement, “DPA“) until further notice.

The DPA does not apply if the Customer is a natural person using the Software or the Services in the course of a purely personal or family activity (cf. Art. 2(2)(c) EU General Data Protection Regulation, “GDPR“).

The provisions of this DPA and the EULA concluded at the same time complement each other and exist side by side. In the event of any contradictions in the area of data protection, the DPA shall take precedence over the provisions of the EULA.

### 2. Rights and obligations of TeamViewer

  The obligations of TeamViewer shall arise from this DPA and the applicable laws. The applicable laws shall in particular include the Federal Data Protection Act (“FDPA”) and the GDPR.

- #### 2.2. Processing on instructions only

  To the extent this DPA is applicable, TeamViewer shall only process personal data within the scope of this DPA and on documented instructions of the Customer, which are mutually agreed upon by the parties in the EULA and especially defined by the Product functionality, unless TeamViewer is required to do so by Union or the member state law to which TeamViewer is subject; in such a case TeamViewer shall inform the Customer of that legal requirement before processing, unless the respective law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest. The Customer can give additional written instructions as far as this is necessary to comply with the applicable data protection law. The documentation on issued instructions shall be kept by the Customer for the term of the DPA.

  - 2.4.2. Scope
    For the specific commissioned processing of personal data, a level of security appropriate to the risk to the rights and freedoms of the natural persons affected by the processing shall be guaranteed. To this end, the protection objectives of Art. 32 (1) GDPR, such as confidentiality, integrity and availability of systems and services and their resilience in terms of the nature, scope, as well as context of the processing shall be taken into account in such a way that the risks are mitigated permanently by appropriate Security Measures.

  - 2.4.5. Changes
    The Security Measures are subject to technical progress and further development. TeamViewer shall be generally permitted to implement alternative appropriate measures. In doing so, the level of security may not fall below the level existing prior to this DPA on the basis of the Security Measures already implemented or to be implemented.

- #### 2.5. Assistance with safeguarding the rights of data subjects

  TeamViewer shall, taking into account the nature of the processing, assist the Customer as far as this is possible by appropriate technical and organizational measures in the fulfillment of requests to exercise the rights of affected data subjects as referred in Chapter III of the GDPR.

GDPR), or
  - b. TeamViewer is obliged to do so according to the law of the European Union or a member state to which TeamViewer is subject; in such a case TeamViewer will inform the Customer about these legal requirements prior to processing, unless the respective law prohibits such a communication on important grounds of public interest.
