   Subject to the provisions of the Agreement and payment of the applicable Fees, we hereby grant you a non-exclusive, worldwide, non-transferable and non-sublicensable license to use the relevant Service for recruitment purposes (“License”).

6. Article 5: Fees
   5.1 The applicable fees (“Fees”) as compensation for the provision of each Service are set out in the Service Description at https://www.homerun.co/pricing, unless Parties have agreed on a different fee as further specified in the Proposal. The Fees are in EUR and exclusive of VAT. For the provision of the Free Service or a trial version of the Service, no Fee is due. The Fees are paid in advance and will be automatically invoiced and collected by Homerun by means of a direct monthly or yearly SEPA transfer or through Customer’s registered credit card account. If such payment is not possible, Customer shall update its payment details within 12 days of the first failed payment.
   
   5.2 When upgrading from a trial or Free Service to a paid Service, such upgrade is only possible after providing the required payment details and payment of the applicable Fee. Upon payment of the applicable Fee connected to the upgraded Service and receipt of the confirmation email, that Service, including its functionalities and duration, will be in effect.
   
   5.3 Upon upgrading from a paid Service to another, more comprehensive paid Service, the Fee paid in connection with the prior Service shall be deducted from your first payment of the new Fee pro rata, taking into account the time of the old term not yet expired.
   
   5.4 Upon downgrading the decreased Fee will become due upon expiry of the prior Service’s term.
   
   5.5 We may reasonably adjust the applicable Fees in writing, observing a notice period of at least one (1) month.

The License is the sole use-right of the SaaS provided to the Customer.
   
   6.2 For the avoidance of doubt: for standard software which is required for the SaaS but which is not a part of the SaaS, such as operating system software, browser software, plugins, interface software, as well as similar third party software, Customer shall acquire a use-right for all such ancillary software at its own expense.

If you fail to do so within a reasonable period of time, we may suspend or terminate the Agreement.

   7.3 Homerun may make commercially reasonable updates to the SaaS and may modify the functionality or features of the Service at any time, provided that such updates and modifications do not materially denigrate the functionality of the Service within the applicable Term. Homerun will not be liable to Customer or any third-party for any such update or modification.
   
   7.4 It may be necessary for Homerun to perform scheduled or unscheduled repairs or maintenance, or patch or upgrade the Service, which may temporarily degrade the quality of the Service or result in a partial or complete outage of the Service. Although Homerun cannot guarantee that Customer will receive advance notice of repairs or maintenance, Homerun will endeavor to provide reasonable notice of scheduled repairs and maintenance.
   
   7.5 Homerun may suspend all or part of the Services or the access to or use of personal data stored in the Service (i) if Customer is delinquent on payment obligations for 12 (twelve) days or more; or (ii) upon receipt of a subpoena or law-enforcement request; or (iii) when Homerun has a commercially reasonable belief that Customer has breached this Agreement or that Customer’s use of the Service poses an imminent security risk or may subject Homerun to liability. Homerun will use commercially reasonable efforts to give Customer at least 72 (seventy-two) hours’ notice of a suspension unless Homerun determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that a suspension on shorter or contemporaneous notice is necessary to protect Homerun. Customer shall not set off or suspend any payment.

   Current as of: 31 October 2024
   
2. Article 1: Definitions
   The terms used in this DPA correspond with the definitions provided in the Terms of Service of Homerun (available at https://www.homerun.co/terms-of-service), unless specified differently. Terms such as “processing”, “personal data” and “personal data breach” shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679/EU – “GDPR”).
   
3. Article 2: Scope and Subject
   This DPA applies exclusively to the processing of personal data by Homerun on your behalf, in the course of providing the Services to you as set out in the Agreement.
   

1. Article 3: Obligations of Parties
   ‍3.1 Homerun will act as the processor as meant in article 4 paragraph 8 GDPR and the Customer will act as the controller, in the meaning of article 4 paragraph 7 GDPR. Homerun will act in accordance with the documented instructions of the Customer, as set out in the Terms and this DPA. Additional instructions to Homerun can only be provided by amendment of this DPA or by adjusting relevant settings in the available functionalities of the SaaS. 
   
   3.2 Homerun will only process the personal data in such manner as - and to the extent that - this is necessary for the provision of the Services under the Terms, as per the instruction as meant in clause 3.1 of the DPA, or to comply with a legal obligation to which Homerun is subject, in which case Homerun will notify the Customer of such legal obligation, unless that law prohibits such notification on important grounds of public interest. Homerun shall not process the personal data for any other purposes than described in article 2 of this DPA. 
   
   3.3 Customer warrants that the written instructions given by Customer to Homerun in respect of the (processing of) personal data shall at all times be compliant with the GDPR and all other applicable legislation and regulations (“Relevant Legislation”). It is and remains the sole responsibility of Customer to comply with its obligations as a controller under the GDPR. This includes, but is not limited to the obligation to adequately inform data subjects regarding the processing of their personal data, to have a lawful legal basis for the processing and to ensure personal data is only retained for as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was obtained. 
   
   3.4 Customer shall, through the relevant functionality in the SaaS, provide Homerun with an up-to-date email address to be used as the contact point for any relevant notifications or communications regarding the processing of the personal data of Customer (“Privacy Contact”). If a specific Privacy Contact is not provided, we will consider the designated account owner to be the Privacy Contact. Homerun is not responsible for emails to the Privacy Contact “bouncing” or being rejected and other delivery failures that cannot be attributed to Homerun. It is solely the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that the email address of the Privacy Contact is monitored at all times. 
2. ‍Article 4: Confidentiality
   ‍Homerun will treat the personal data as confidential, and will ensure that access to the personal data is limited to only those employees who require access to it for the purpose of carrying out the Services. Homerun will ensure that all persons authorized to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality.
   
3. Article 5: Security Measures
   ‍5.1 Without prejudice to any other security measures agreed upon by Parties, Homerun shall implement and employ appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the personal data against unauthorized use or access, loss, destruction, theft, or disclosure, in accordance with article 32 GDPR. An overview of Homerun’s security measures to protect the personal data are described on the Security Measures page at https://www.homerun.co/security-measures. 
   
   5.2 Homerun may update from time to time the security measures taken as described in clause 5.1 of the DPA, provided that the updated measures will continue to ensure at least the same level of protection. Homerun will communicate the updated measures by updating the Security Measures page. 
   
4. ‍Article 6: Cooperation and Audit
   ‍6.1 At the request of the Customer, Homerun shall provide the information strictly necessary for the Customer to comply with its obligations under the GDPR, specifically articles 32 through 36 GDPR. With regards to Homerun’s cooperation in the context of articles 35 and 36, Customer shall bear the costs thereof.
   
   6.2 The Customer has the right to perform an audit once per twelve months in order to verify the compliance of Homerun with the provisions of this DPA. Such audit will be performed by an independent third party and will take place at a time defined by both Parties together. An audit scope and plan must be provided to, and agreed in writing with, Homerun in advance.
   
   6.3 Homerun shall provide the auditor access – on request of the auditor – to the facilities, personnel, policies and documents that are reasonably necessary for the purpose of the audit and in so far such does not infringe on the rights and freedoms of third parties or result in Homerun breaching contractual obligations. The Customer shall bear the costs of such an audit.
   
   6.4 Homerun will immediately inform the Customer if a request from (the auditor of) Customer is in the opinion of Homerun in violation of the GDPR.
   
   6.5 Homerun may choose to satisfy the audit right of Customer as meant in clause 6.2 of the DPA by providing documentation demonstrating that Homerun complies with recognized certification frameworks, including but not limited to ISO 27001 and ISO 27701. If Homerun makes use of this right, the audit right of Customer will be limited to only such topics that are not covered by the certification framework, or where found inadequate in the certification assessment.
   
5. Article 7: International Data Transfer
   ‍Homerun shall only transfer Personal Data to a country outside of the European Economic Area if it observes Chapter 5 of the GDPR.

   ‍8.1 Customer provides Homerun with specific authorization to engage the sub-processors listed at https://www.homerun.co/sub-processors.
   
   8.2 Customer provides Homerun with general authorization to engage other sub-processors. Homerun shall inform the Customer in advance of the engagement of a new sub-processor, by email to the Privacy Contact.
   
   8.3 The Customer has the right to argue its objection to the engagement of that sub-processor within four (4) weeks of the notification by Homerun to the Privacy Contact. If the Customer has not made an objection within that period, the Customer is presumed to have given its specific authorization to the engagement of that sub-processor. If the Customer objects to a sub-processor, its sole remedy is to terminate the Agreement, in accordance with articles 13 and 14 of the Terms, without any right to compensation.
   
   8.4 Homerun shall enter into an agreement with its sub-processors, which agreement shall comply with the requirements of GDPR and include similar provisions as included in this DPA. Homerun shall remain liable vis-à-vis the Customer for the performance of – or the failure to perform – the obligations set out in this DPA by sub-processors, in accordance with article 17 of the Terms.
   
7. Article 9: Security Incidents and Data Subject Rights
   ‍9.1 In the event of a security incident, Homerun shall promptly take all remedial measures it deems necessary to terminate the incident and mitigate possible damages.

   9.3 In case Homerun receives a complaint or a request from a natural person with regard to the personal data processed on behalf of Customer as described in Chapter 3 of the GDPR, Homerun shall inform the natural person without undue delay that Homerun operates as a processor on behalf of its customers, and that the complaint or request needs to be addressed to the controller, namely the organization to whom the complaint or request pertains. Homerun cannot, and is never held to, verify to which customer the complaint or request pertains, nor to forward the same. In the event Customer requests the assistance of Homerun to respond to such a complaint or request, Customer shall bear the costs thereof.
   
8. Article 10: Export, Return and Destruction of Personal Data
   ‍10.1 Using the functionality of the SaaS, Customer can at any time delete (part of) the personal data in its account. Any deleted data will be archived for a period of seven (7) days, to allow for any error in the deletion request to be corrected. If Customer requests such correction, it shall bear the costs thereof. After that period, the archived data is effectively deleted. 
   
   10.2 Deletion of data from the general back-ups of Homerun cannot be requested by Customer, as such would affect the integrity of the back-ups. Back-ups are erased after thirty-five (35) days. 
   
   10.3 Upon termination or expiration of the Agreement for whatever reason, Homerun shall initiate the process of deletion of the personal data. All (personal) data in the account shall be retained for thirty (30) days after termination or expiration, to allow the Customer to download an export of the personal data. It is the sole responsibility of the Customer to timely download within the deletion period of thirty (30) days. After that period, the personal data is permanently deleted and cannot be restored.
