    • Process the Personal Data as a Data Processor and/or Service Provider, only for the purpose of providing the Services in accordance with documented instructions from you (provided that such instructions are commensurate with the functionalities of the Services), and as may subsequently be agreed to by you. If SHOPLAZZA is required by law to Process the Personal Data for any other purpose, SHOPLAZZA will provide you with prior notice of this requirement, unless SHOPLAZZA is prohibited by law from providing such notice;
    • notify you if, in SHOPLAZZA's opinion, your instruction for the Processing of Personal Data infringes applicable Data Protection Legislation;

  3. In the course of providing the Services, you acknowledge and agree that SHOPLAZZA may use Subprocessors to Process the Personal Data. SHOPLAZZA's use of any specific Subprocessor to process the Personal Data must be in compliance with Data Protection Legislation and must be governed by a contract between SHOPLAZZA and Subprocessor that requires comparable protections to this Data Processing Addendum. A current list of Subprocessors may be found online at SHOPLAZZA's subprocessors. If you object to the appointment of a Subprocessor you may terminate this agreement in accordance with our Terms of Service.
