Purpose and how these addenda apply
This document, the Sprii DPAInternational Addenda, supplements and forms part of the Sprii Data ProcessingAddendum (the DPA). It groups the country-specific terms that apply when acustomer (the data controller) is governed by a data protection law outside theEU GDPR.
Each addendum below applies onlywhere, and to the extent that, the controller's processing is subject to thelaw it names. Where an addendum applies, it supplements the DPA; the DPA'sclauses (which implement Article 28 of the EU GDPR) continue to apply in full,read as referring to the equivalent concepts under the local law. If there is aconflict, the addendum prevails for that jurisdiction's law only.
The sub-processors Spriiengages, and the transfer safeguard relied on for each, are set out in theSprii Sub-Processor List referred to in the DPA. The transfer mechanisms namedbelow operate together with that List.
