Nothing in this Agreement grants, nor shall Advertiser acquire hereby, any right, title or interest in or to the Platform or any goodwill associated with the Platform, other than those rights expressly granted hereunder. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, all rights in the Platform granted to Advertiser hereunder shall automatically revert to illumin, and Advertiser shall have no further rights in the Platform.

If Advertiser requests in person training, Advertiser will reimburse illumin for all reasonable out of pocket expenses.

2.3 Advertiser’s use of the Platform shall at all times comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and ordinances as well as any written policies or procedures that illumin may provide to Advertiser from time to time in connection with Advertiser’s use of the Platform. illumin reserves the right to monitor the Platform and Advertiser’s use of the Platform from time to time in its sole discretion.

Annex 2 Description of the technical and organizational security measures implemented by the data exporter in accordance with Clauses 4(d) and 5(c) (or document/legislation)

Description of the technical and organizational security measures implemented by the data exporter

Measures with which Personal Data can be processed while denying physical access to IT systems for unauthorized persons (access control):

All of the data exporter’s third-party data centers have strict policies for authorization of access into the facilities. Each data center vendor has appropriate policies required by external audits. All of the data exporter’s internal personnel are vetted prior to allowing access to data centers.

Measures to hinder unauthorized persons from using IT systems and procedures (access control):

All systems level access is based on directory services and role-based security. Additional measures are in place such as VPN and other security measures prior to system level access being available, as described below. All end user level access to illumin’s systems is based on role-based security. Shared accounts are not allowed.

The data exporter undertakes the following actions, among others, to ensure that persons authorized to use the illumin Platform or access data processing infrastructure can only access the data underlying their access authorization and that stored data or data undergoing processing cannot be read, copied, altered, or removed without authorization.

The data exporter’s employees access infrastructure components with unique accounts that require strong passwords. Remote administration is available only via public key cryptography and password-based authentication is not permitted. Access groups have been established to restrict access to only to specific areas that are required for employee responsibilities.

Customers of the data exporter may be granted access to the illumin console. Access to the illumin console is limited via a username and a password to the customer’s authorized persons and additionally to equivalently authorized employees of the data exporter. Logical infrastructure configuration prevents the access of one customer’s data by another customer.

Measures to enable persons authorized to use IT procedures to gain exclusive access to the Personal Data that are subject to their access authorization (access control):

The data exporter employs a centralized access management system to control personnel access to production servers, and only provides access to a limited number of authorized personnel. These mechanisms are designed to grant only approved access rights to site hosts, logs, data and configuration information. The data exporter requires the use of unique user IDs, strong passwords; and carefully monitored access lists to minimize the potential for unauthorized account use. The granting or modification of access rights is based on: the authorized personnel’s job responsibilities; job duty requirements necessary to perform authorized tasks; a need-to-know basis; and must be in accordance with the data exporter’s internal data access policies and training. Approvals are managed by workflow tools that maintain audit records of all changes. Access to systems is logged to create an audit trail for accountability. Where passwords are employed for authentication (e.g., login to workstations), password policies that follow at least industry standard practices are implemented. These standards include password expiry, restrictions on password reuse and sufficient password strength.

In addition, the data exporter has implemented several security related policies that govern the use of illumin technology and data including rules around acceptable use, data classification, information security, and passwords. The data exporter’s information security officer is Rachel Kapcan.

Measures to ensure that Personal Data cannot be read, copied, amended or removed by unauthorized persons when the data is transmitted electronically, or when it is being transported, or when it is being stored on data carriers, but which allow checks to be made of the destinations targeted when transferring Personal Data using data transmission equipment (routing controls):

Data is encrypted by measures such as SSL. Personal data shall not be transferred outside the scope as authorized under these Clauses, or as otherwise authorized by the data importer.

Measures that allow retrospective checks to be made on whether Personal Data has been entered into, amended or removed from IT systems, and by whom (input controls):

All data processed in illumin Platform by an end user of the platform (e.g., CL personnel) is done on a permissions-based model, all user accounts are enabled/disabled in accordance with the security policy. All accounts are individual. Shared accounts are not allowed. Audit Trail is kept for user actions and is logged.

Email and corporate systems access is granted based on directory services and role-based security.

Measures to ensure that Personal Data to be processed on CONTROLLER’s behalf is only processed in accordance with CONTROLLER’s directives (performance controls):

The data importer is a user of the illumin Platform, therefore setting up of data collection mechanisms, collection of data, verifying data integrity sit with the data importer. The personal data shall only be processed in the manner authorized under these Clauses and all sub processors shall only be employed in compliance with the provisions of these Clauses.

Measures to ensure that Personal Data is protected against incidental damage or loss (availability controls):

Data is kept in a storage framework with at least three copies natively made and stored. Additionally, the data exporter replicates data between data centers for disaster recovery with ability to restore if needed, although the data exporter will not replicate lat/long or other data points which might be considered sensitive in the EU.

Measures to ensure that the different purposes for processing data can be identified – especially for PROCESSOR’s different controllers – and that data to be processed is processed separately from each other (separation controls):

illumin stores data in a multi-tenant environment on servers owned by illumin. The Services database and file system architecture are replicated between multiple data centers. illumin logically isolates data on a per end user basis at the application layer. illumin logically separates Customer’s data, including data from different end users, from each other, and data for an authenticated end user will not be displayed to another end user (unless the former end user or administrator allows the data to be shared). A central authentication system is used across all Services to increase uniform security of data.

Measures to ensure availability and resiliency for data and technical operations:

illumin stores data and operates servers in datacenters with robust and redundant power and data storage mechanisms. All deployments are configured with repeatable operating templates, for rapid deployment to a DR region when necessary. All networks are protected by network firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and other industry best practice security measures.

Measures for regular testing, assessment and evaluation:

illumin regularly reviews system activity rated by security threat level by our intrusion detection platform. illumin regularly runs external network scans to ensure operating systems, libraries, and all used software is patched against vulnerabilities. All platform configurations are catalogued within version control and issued via peer-reviewed pull requests to ensure multiple reviewers of each security related change.

Measures for pseudonymization of data:

illumin works with upstream data controllers to ensure no PII enters our system.
