a. prevent the use of Personal Data for any purpose other than Processing in accordance with the Agreement and this DPA or as otherwise instructed by Customer;

  1. Audit

6.1 Customer hereby directs Visier to audit its technical and organizational measures described in this DPA at least annually by retaining qualified independent third party auditors at Visier’s selection and expense and to produce an audit report detailing its findings in the form of a SOC2 Type II (or equivalent) audit report (the “Audit Report”).

6.2 Upon Customer’s request, and subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in the Agreement, Visier will make available to Customer the Audit Report so that Customer can reasonably verify Visier’s compliance with its obligations under this DPA. The Audit Report forms part of Visier’s Confidential Information in accordance with the confidentiality provisions of the Agreement.

6.3 Where Customer is required by Data Protection Law to verify compliance under this DPA by means other than Customer’s instructions in Section 6.1 and subsequent to a review of the Audit Report, Customer may conduct, no more than once per year (unless otherwise mandated by Data Protection Law), an audit of the architecture and procedures relevant to the protection of Personal Data. Such audit will be conducted at Customer’s expense by Customer or Customer’s independent, third-party auditor reasonably acceptable to Visier that executes a nondisclosure agreement acceptable to Visier prior to any audit, in accordance with Visier’s then-available audit timetable. Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (a) Visier will only provide existing documents as evidence in support of the audit; (b) the audit cannot interfere with individual rights and data protection requirements under Data Protection Law; and (c) if interviews are required, Visier will have sole discretion to select its personnel to be interviewed.

Before the commencement of any audit, Customer and Visier shall mutually agree upon the scope, timing, and duration of the audit in addition to the fees to be paid by Customer. Customer shall promptly provide Visier with information regarding any non-compliance discovered during an audit. If Visier and Customer, after making good faith efforts, are unable to agree upon the scope, timing, and duration of the audit and the fees to be paid by Customer, then Customer may terminate this DPA and the Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Visier.

6.4 The information available to Customer or any person acting on Customer’s behalf by operation of this Section 6: (a) is intended to allow Customer to assess Visier’s compliance with those processor obligations required under Data Protection Law, including audits and inspections, and to comply with Customer’s obligations in respect of data protection impact assessments and prior consultation mandated by Data Protection Law; and (b) shall be considered Visier Confidential Information in accordance with the confidentiality provisions of the Agreement.
