Reseller Data Processing Agreement
Last updated: December 18, 2024
This reseller data processing agreement (“
DPA”) is an agreement between you and the entity you represent or have the authority to bind that entity to this DPA (the “
Reseller” or “
you”), and Chargebackhelp, LLC, a California limited liability company (“
CBH”). This DPA forms part of any written or electronic agreement between you and CBH (each, an “
Agreement”) under which CBH Processes Personal Information for the Reseller’s third-party customers for the Services (each, a “
Participating Seller”), except regarding any Agreement under which you and CBH have entered into data processing terms that address the subject matter of this DPA. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this DPA will have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.
- Processing of Participating Sellers Personal Information.
- Processor Designation. The parties acknowledge that CBH will Process the Personal Information of the Reseller’s Participating Sellers to provide the Services, which Processing may include, for example, the Processing detailed on the Details of Processing Participating Seller Personal Information set out in exhibit 2. For the purposes of the Data Protection Laws and the provisions of this DPA, the Reseller’s Participating Sellers will be considered as controllers (or equivalent term under Data Protection Laws), the Reseller will be considered a data processor, and CBH (as the “Sub-Processor” in this DPA) will be considered a sub-processor engaged by the Reseller to carry out specific processing activities for the Reseller’s Participating Sellers.
- Authorization to Process. The Sub-Processor shall Process the Participating Seller Personal Information to provide the Services, and the Sub-Processor may Process the Participating Seller Personal Information solely in connection with the following activities:
- in accordance with the applicable Agreement, including, without limitation, any exhibits, schedules, and applicable price schedule, to provide the Services, and any Processing required under law or regulations;
- based on the Reseller’s instructions and in its use of the Services, the SubProcessor transfers the Participating Seller Personal Information to Verifi, Ethoca, the Participating Sellers’ Data Subjects, acquiring banks, issuing banks, payment processors servicing acquiring banks, credit and debit card companies, or other service providers engaged in performing the Services for the Reseller’s customers; and
- as reasonably necessary to enable the Sub-Processor to comply with any other directions or instructions provided by the Reseller for the Reseller’s Participating Sellers.
- Compliance with Law. The Reseller shall, in its use of the Services, Process the Participating Seller
Personal Information in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws. The SubProcessor shall, in its provision of the Services, Process the Participating Seller Personal Information in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Laws.
- Reseller Obligations.
- Regarding the Processing of the Participating Seller Personal Information by the SubProcessor under this DPA and the Agreement, the Reseller shall cause its Participating Sellers to:
- provide their Data Subjects with all privacy notices, information, and any necessary choices under Data Protection Laws regarding the use of Participating Seller Personal Information in connection with the Services as set out in the Agreement and this DPA, including providing information to Data Subjects for fair, lawful, and transparent Processing of the Participating Seller Personal Information when required and obtain any necessary consents to allow the parties to comply with Data Protection Law;
- promptly inform the Sub-Processor when the Participating Seller Personal Information must be corrected, updated, or deleted, where required by Data Protection Law; and
- ensure that at the point of transferring the Participating Seller Personal Information to the Sub-Processor, the Participating Seller Personal Information is adequate, relevant, and limited to what is necessary for the Processing contemplated under the Agreement and this DPA.
- The Reseller shall comply (and shall cause its third-party auditors to comply) with the SubProcessor’s relevant security policies and appropriate confidentiality obligations as set out in the Agreement.
- Sub-Processor Obligations.
- Data Protection Law. If necessary to enable the Reseller’s Participating Sellers to comply with their obligations under Data Protection Laws, the Sub-Processor shall comply with the applicable provisions of schedules A and B, each to the extent relevant and required.
- Data Subject Rights. The Sub-Processor shall, to the extent legally permitted, provide reasonable assistance to the Reseller to respond to requests from Data Subjects to exercise their rights under Data Protection Law regarding the Participating Seller Personal Information (e.g., rights to access or delete Participating Seller Personal Information) in a manner that is consistent with the nature and functionality of the Services. The Reseller shall submit those requests for assistance to the Sub-Processor. If the Sub-Processor receives any such request, it shall promptly notify the Reseller, and the Reseller shall cause its Participating Sellers to handle those requests by a Data Subject in accordance with Data Protection Law.
- Engaging with Sub-Processors. The Sub-Processor shall ensure that when engaging with another data processor including any Affiliates (a “Sub-Sub-Processor”) for the purposes of carrying out specific Processing activities related to the Reseller’s Participating Sellers, there is a written contract in place between the Sub-Processor and the relevant Sub-SubProcessor. Those written contracts, to the extent applicable to the nature of the Services provided by the relevant Sub-Sub-Processor, must provide at least the same level of protection for the Participating Seller Personal Information as set out in this DPA.
- The Sub-Processor shall ensure that persons authorized to Process the Participating Seller Personal Information have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.
- Security of Processing. Taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs, and the nature, scope, context, and purposes of the Processing, and the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the Sub-Processor shall implement technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to that risk. In assessing the appropriate level of security, the Sub-Processor shall, in particular, take into account the sensitivity of the Personal Information and the risks that are presented by the Processing, in particular from unauthorized or unlawful Processing, accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to the Participating Seller Personal Information transmitted, stored, or otherwise Processed. The Sub-Processor shall provide reasonable assistance to the Reseller to ensure the Reseller meets its own compliance obligations for these same security measures.
- Security Breach.
- In the event of an actual Security Breach affecting the Participating Seller Personal Information contained in the Sub-Processor’s systems, the Sub-Processor shall (1) investigate the circumstances, extent, and causes of the Security Breach and report the results to the Reseller and continue to keep the Reseller regularly informed on the progress of the Sub-Processor’s investigation until the issue has been effectively resolved, and (2) cooperate with the Reseller in any legally required notification by the Reseller’s Participating Sellers of affected Data Subjects.
- The Sub-Processor shall promptly notify the Reseller upon the Sub-Processor or any Sub-Sub-Processor becoming aware of an actual Security Breach affecting the Participating Seller Personal Information, providing the Reseller with sufficient information and reasonable assistance to allow the Reseller’s customers to meet its obligations under Data Protection Law to (1) notify a Supervisory Authority (as defined under Data Protection Law) of the Security Breach, and (2) communicate the Security Breach to the relevant Data Subjects.
- Except as required by law or regulation, the notifying party shall not make (or allow any third party to make) any statement concerning the Security Breach that directly or indirectly references the other party, unless the other party provides its written authorization.
- To the extent that a Security Breach was caused by the Reseller, the Reseller’s Participating Sellers, or Data Subjects, the Reseller will be responsible for the costs arising from the Sub-Processor’s provision of assistance under this section 4.6.
- Deletion and Retention. The Sub-Processor shall delete all Participating Seller Personal Information on termination of the Sub-Processor retention period unless storage is required by law.
- The terms of this DPA will apply only to the extent required by Data Protection Law. To the extent not inconsistent with this DPA, the applicable provisions of the Agreement (including without limitation, indemnifications, limitations of liability, enforcement, and interpretation) will apply to this DPA. In the event of any conflict between this DPA and the terms of an applicable Agreement, the terms of this DPA will prevail solely regarding data processing terms where required by Data Protection Law, and, in all other respects, the terms of the applicable Agreement will prevail. This DPA does not apply to any data or information that does not relate to one or more identifiable individuals, which has been aggregated or de-identified in accordance with Data Protection Law, or to the extent that the Sub-Processor and the Reseller have entered separate data processing terms that address the subject matter of this DPA.
- Unless otherwise defined in the Agreement (including this DPA), all terms in this DPA will have the definitions given to them in Data Protection Law.

-
- This schedule A is applicable solely to the extent that any Participating Seller Personal Information Processed by CBH while performing the Services is subject to the CCPA. Despite anything else to the contrary, this schedule A does not apply to any information that is collected, processed, sold, or disclosed by the parties subject to the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (“GLBA”).
- Capitalized terms used but not defined in this schedule A will have the meanings assigned to those terms in the Agreement or, if not defined in the Agreement, in the CCPA.

- CBH is not acting as a Third Party, nor is CBH providing Cross-Contextual Behavioral Advertising under this schedule A. If the Reseller seeks to use CBH for those services, the parties shall agree to a separate schedule with the required clauses and obligations, as required in the CCPA, as described in California Civil Code § 1798.145(d).
- Each party shall comply with its obligations under the CCPA for any Participating Seller Personal Information Processed under this schedule A.

- shall promptly notify the Reseller of any material changes in CBH’s ability to meet its obligations under the CCPA, including but not limited to any determination that CBH can no longer meet its obligations under this schedule A;
- shall ensure that CBH’s agreement with any sub-processors used to Process Participating Seller Personal Information complies with the CCPA, including, without limitation, the contractual requirements for Service Providers and Contractors;
- shall provide reasonable cooperation to the Reseller, on request, to enable the Reseller to comply with consumer requests made under the CCPA;

Capitalized terms not defined in this schedule B will have the meaning assigned to them under the DPA. If there are any conflicts between this schedule B and the DPA, this schedule B will prevail.
- Sub-Processor Obligations.
- Processing of Participating Seller Personal Information. The Sub-Processor shall Process the Participating Seller Personal Information only in accordance with documented reasonable instructions from the Reseller (including instructions regarding transfers of the Participating Seller Personal Information to a third country or territory, if applicable) unless required to do so by Data Protection Law. In those circumstances, the SubProcessor shall inform the Reseller of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits that information on important grounds of public interest. The SubProcessor shall promptly inform the Reseller if, in the Sub-Processor’s opinion, the Reseller’s instructions would be in breach of Data Protection Law. The Sub-Processor is not required to take actions designed to form any such opinion.
- Use of Sub-Sub-Processor.
- The Sub-Processor may maintain its Sub-Sub-Processor list through means such as publication of its Sub-Sub-Processor list online and also update it accordingly.

The Reseller acknowledges that the SubProcessor currently engages the Sub-Sub-Processors listed in exhibit 3 of this DPA.
- The Sub-Processor shall inform the Reseller of any intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of other Sub-Sub-Processors to give the Reseller the reasonable opportunity to object to those changes.

- The Sub-Processor may undertake reasonable efforts to make available to the Reseller a change in the Services or recommend a commercially reasonable change to the Reseller’s configuration or use of the Services to avoid the Processing of the Participating Seller Personal Information by the objected-to new Sub-Sub-processor. If the Sub-Processor cannot make available that change within a reasonable period, which must not exceed 30 days, the Reseller may terminate the Agreement as to only those aspects of the Services that cannot be provided by the Sub-Processor without using the objected-to new Sub-Sub-
Processor by notifying the Sub-Processor. If the Services as a whole cannot be
performed without the objected-to new Sub-Sub-Processor, the Reseller may terminate the entire Agreement, on condition that the Reseller’s objections to the new Sub-Sub-Processor are reasonable.
- The Sub-Processor shall not penalize the Reseller for any termination under section 1.2(c) of this schedule B.
- Data Protection Impact Assessments and Prior Consultation with Regulator. The Sub-Processor shall provide reasonable assistance to the Reseller with any legally required (1) data protection impact assessments, and (2) prior consultations initiated by the Reseller with its regulator in connection with those data protection impact assessments.

- Demonstrating Compliance with this DPA.
- The Sub-Processor shall make available to the Reseller all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with its obligations under this DPA and allow for (and contribute to) audits, including inspections conducted by the Reseller or another auditor under the instruction of the Reseller for the same purposes of demonstrating compliance with the obligations set out in this DPA.
- The Reseller’s right under section 2.1 of this schedule B is subject to the following:
- if the Sub-Processor can demonstrate compliance with its obligations set out in this DPA by adhering to an approved code of conduct, by obtaining an approved certification, or by providing the Reseller with an audit report issued by an independent third-party auditor (on condition that the Reseller shall comply with appropriate confidentiality obligations as set out in the Agreement and shall not use that audit report for any other purpose), the Reseller shall not conduct an audit or inspection under section 2.1 of this schedule B; and
- recognizing the time, expense, and potential business disruption caused by audits and inspections involving interviews and onsite visits, the Reseller shall conduct those audits and inspections only if the Reseller can demonstrate that the audit or inspection is necessary and cannot be satisfied by the information provided by the Sub-Processor under section 2.1 of this schedule B. Those audits and inspections must (1) occur at reasonable intervals (but no more than once a year), (2) be conducted on no less than 60 days’ written notice and on a mutually agreed date, (3) be conducted during normal business hours, (4) be carried out at the Reseller’s expense, (5) not disrupt the Sub-Processor’s business operations, (6) not interfere with the interests or operations of the Sub-Processor’s other customers, and (7) not exceed two consecutive business days.
- Regarding section 2.1 of this schedule B, the Sub-Processor shall promptly inform the Reseller if, in the Sub-Processor’s opinion, the Reseller’s instructions would be in breach
of Data Protection Law. The Sub-Processor is not required to take actions designed to form any such opinion.

Module 3 (transfer processor to processor) of the EEA Standard Contractual Clauses applies to any Transfer of the Participating Seller Personal Information from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland to CBH and any of its affiliated entities in the United States or other third countries (the “CBH Entities”). Module 3 (transfer processor to processor) of the EEA Standard Contractual Clauses is incorporated by reference, and:
