In the event that a change in Data Protection Laws and Regulations occurs during the term of this Agreement such that the Services do not enable compliance with such change, and as a result of such change Ping Identity is unable to alter the Services without undue burden (in Ping Identity’s reasonable discretion), then Customer may, as its exclusive remedy, elect to terminate the Agreement and all outstanding subscriptions to Ping Identity’s Products without penalty, and receive a refund of any prepaid, unused Fees.

Customer recognizes that Ping Identity does not have a means to verify (i) the residency of each Data Subject, (ii) the aspects of Personal Data that are provided to Ping Identity by Customer in connection with each request by Customer to Process such Personal Data, nor (iii) the location of third parties that Customer chooses to exchange Personal Data with as part of the intended functionality of the Service (such as in a single-sign on transaction).

If any authorizations or consents of Data Subjects are required for the Processing of Personal Data by Ping Identity, Customer shall be required to obtain any such consents directly from the Data Subjects.

If applicable Data Protection Laws and Regulations require Customer to notify, seek guidance from, or consult with any governmental authority or representative body, concerning Ping Identity’s Processing of Personal Data, Ping Identity will reasonably cooperate with Customer in connection with such advisory request or consultation to the extent applicable to Ping Identity’s responsibilities under this DPA and the Agreement, and as allowed by Data Protection Laws and Regulations.
3.6 Data Protection Officer. Ping Identity’s data protection officer may be contacted via dpo_privacy@pingidentity.com.
4. Storage and access to Personal Data
4.1 Data residency. With respect to Ping Identity’s hosted service, Customer may select the data center(s) in which Personal Data shall be stored. Personal Data received through the Services may be disclosed to, transferred to, and/or allowed to be accessed by or otherwise Processed by Ping Identity’s personnel or the Subprocessors. Personal Data may be transferred to personnel of Ping Identity located in the countries set forth at https://www.pingidentity.com/data-supplement in the course of performing the Services. Ping Identity will notify Customer if the foregoing countries changes (which notice may be provided through support channels, Ping Identity’s website, Ping Identity’s status notifications that may be subscribed to at https://www.pingidentity.com/data-supplement, or such other reasonable means). In the event that the foregoing countries to which Personal Data may be transferred is changed, the parties agree to cooperate in good faith in meeting any additional regulatory or legal requirements necessary to allow such transfers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the exception of Personal Data processed through the hosted service, certain Personal Data may be stored by Ping Identity or its Subprocessors in the U.S. for operational purposes.
4.2 Ping Identity’s access to Personal Data. Ping Identity shall ensure that access to Personal Data is restricted to only those personnel who have a need to know to enable Ping Identity to perform its obligations under the Agreement and this DPA.

Ping Identity will reasonably cooperate with Customer if Customer or its regulators properly request access to Personal Data for any reason in accordance with the Agreement, this DPA, or applicable Data Protection Laws and Regulations.
5. Subprocessors
5.1 Ping Identity’s use of Subprocessors. By executing this DPA, Customer has given its general written consent and authorization for Ping Identity to engage Subprocessors in connection with the Services. The current list of Subprocessors is set forth at https://www.pingidentity.com/sub-processors (which link may be updated by Ping Identity from time to time in accordance with Section 5.3 of this DPA). Ping Identity may not transfer Personal Data to any other Subprocessor without providing prior written notice to Customer (which notice may be provided through by Customer subscribing to receive updates to https://www.pingidentity.com/sub-processors or such other reasonable means); provided, that Customer will have ten (10) business days to reasonably object that such change causes Customer to be in violation of Data Protection Laws and Regulations. In the event that Customer has not provided an objection to such changes within ten (10) business days, Customer will be deemed to have waived its right to object and to have consented to the use of the new or alternative Subprocessor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a sudden replacement or supplement of a Subprocessor is required by Ping Identity to continue providing the Services (such as if a third party abruptly discontinues services to Ping Identity), Ping Identity may, in lieu of advance notice, inform Customer of the new Subprocessor as soon as practicable and using the same notice procedures as set forth above, following which Customer may raise reasonable objections as set forth above. In the event that Customer reasonably objects to such change, Ping Identity shall, in its sole discretion, use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) offer an alternative to provide the Service to Customer; (2) take the corrective steps requested by Customer in its objection and proceed to use the new Subprocessor; or (3) cancel its plans to use the Subprocessor. If Ping Identity is unable or unwilling to achieve either (1) through (3) in its sole discretion and the objection has not been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of the parties within thirty (30) days after Ping Identity’s receipt of the objection, Customer may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate its applicable subscriptions from Ping Identity with respect only to those aspects of the Service which cannot be provided by Ping Identity without the use of the new Subprocessor. In such event, Ping Identity shall refund Customer any unused, prepaid Fees for the applicable Service covering the remainder of the subscription term after the date of termination.
5.2 Onward Transfer of Personal Data. Any transfer by Ping Identity of Personal Data to a Subprocessor will be governed by a written contract providing that the Subprocessor will process Personal Data in accordance with Ping Identity’s instructions as required by Data Protection Laws and Regulations. Ping Identity conducts an annual review and assessment of its Subprocessors to ensure such Subprocessors have in place proper organizational and technical safeguards to ensure the protection of Personal Data.
5.3 Liability for Subprocessors. Ping Identity shall be liable for the performance of its Subprocessors to the same extent Ping Identity would be liable if Processing Personal Data itself.
6. Data Subject’s rights
6.1 Requests and complaints.

8. Security Incident response and notification
8.1 Discovery and investigation of a breach. Ping Identity will notify Customer without undue delay upon becoming aware of an accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Personal Data Processed by Ping Identity (a “Personal Data Incident”).
