Common Data Protection Terms
Global Processor Layer Terms — Awide Labs Ltd.
Last revised: April 16, 2026
These Common Data Protection Terms (the “Common Terms”) form the shared processor-layer core that supports the regional Data Processing Addendum issued by Awide Labs Ltd. They are referenced in, and form part of, the Master Data Processing Addendum (EEA / UK / Switzerland / Israel) (“Master DPA”) and the US Data Processing Addendum (“US DPA”, together with the Master DPA, the “Regional DPAs”). These Common Terms apply only when Awide acts as a processor on behalf of the Customer in the processor layer described in Section 1.4 of the Awide Privacy Notice.
1. PARTIES, SCOPE AND ROLE ALLOCATION
1.1. These Common Terms apply between:
- Awide Labs Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel, with registered offices in Tel Aviv, Israel (“Awide”, “Processor”); and
- the entity that has entered into the Agreement and the applicable Regional DPA with Awide (“Customer”, “Controller”, “Business”).
1.2. These Common Terms form part of, and are incorporated by reference into,
- (a) the End User License Agreement, master services agreement or other written or click-through agreement under which Awide makes the Software available to the Customer (the “Agreement”), and
- (b) each Regional DPA executed between the Parties.
The Common Terms do not stand alone. In the event of a conflict, the order of precedence is:
- (i) the Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK IDTA, where applicable;
- (ii) the relevant Regional DPA;
- (iii) these Common Terms;
- (iv) the Agreement.
1.3. Awide acts as Processor only when, and only to the extent that, it processes Personal Data on behalf of the Customer in connection with one or more of the following narrowly defined processing activities (the “Processor-Layer Activities”):
- (a) Support and Diagnostics: provision of product (license) support, diagnostics, incident response, or troubleshooting that requires Awide to access, receive, view, copy, or otherwise process Personal Data located inside the Customer environment, including support tickets, log files, database dumps, configuration files, query samples, performance traces, and similar diagnostic artefacts shared by the Customer or generated under Customer-authorised remote access; and
- (b) License Enforcement Telemetry: receipt and processing by Awide of technical signals generated inside the Customer environment by the Software for the purpose of verifying license validity and scope of use, but only to the extent such signals contain Personal Data.
1.4 Activities Outside Scope
For the avoidance of doubt, the following activities are not governed by these Common Terms or any Regional DPA, and Awide does not act as Processor in respect of them:
- (a) processing performed by the Software inside the Customer environment without transmission of Personal Data to Awide (the Customer is the sole Controller / Business; Awide has no role under the AWS Shared Responsibility Model and equivalent cloud shared-responsibility frameworks);
- (b) processing performed by Awide as Controller / Business in the Awide-controlled layer, including operation of the public website, pre-contract communications, negotiations, contract execution, marketplace transactions, License Administration (issuance of license keys, EULA acceptance records, billing, maintenance of licensing records), CRM, marketing where permitted, and business-record keeping, all of which are governed by the Awide Privacy Notice and not by the Regional DPAs; and
- (c) End User License Agreement workflows, including negotiation of contract terms, collection of signatory and representative data, and maintenance of licensing records (License Administration).
1.5. The Customer warrants and represents that, with respect to Personal Data made available to Awide under the Processor-Layer Activities:
- (a) the Customer is the Controller (or, where applicable, a Processor acting on behalf of a third-party Controller) and/or the Business / Third-Party / Service Provider customer, as those terms are defined under applicable Data Protection Laws;
- (b) the Customer has a valid legal basis under applicable Data Protection Laws for the processing it instructs Awide to perform and has obtained all consents, provided all notices, and undertaken all assessments (including, where required, data protection impact assessments and legitimate interest’s assessments) required for such processing;
- (c) the Customer has informed the relevant Data Subjects in accordance with Articles 13 and 14 GDPR, the equivalent provisions of the UK GDPR, the FADP and the Israel PPL, and applicable US state privacy laws, of the processing carried out under the Regional DPAs, including the involvement of Awide as Processor and its Sub-Processors; and
- (d) the Customer’s documented processing instructions, the use of the Software in accordance with the Documentation, and the support, diagnostic and License-Enforcement-Telemetry processes described in the Agreement constitute the Customer’s complete and final documented instructions to Awide. Any additional or modified instructions require mutual written agreement and may be subject to additional fees.
1.6. Nothing in these Common Terms, the Regional DPAs, or the Agreement shall be construed as creating a joint-controllership relationship within the meaning of Article 26 GDPR, Article 26 UK GDPR, Article 9 FADP, or any equivalent provision.

3.1. Awide shall process Personal Data in the Processor-Layer Activities only on documented instructions from the Customer, including with regard to transfers of Personal Data to a third country or an international organization, unless required to do so by applicable law. Where such legal requirement applies, Awide shall inform the Customer of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest.
3.2. The Parties agree that the Agreement, these Common Terms, the applicable Regional DPA, the Documentation, the Customer’s configuration and use of the Software, and the support tickets raised by the Customer through Awide’s designated channels constitute the Customer’s complete and final documented processing instructions to Awide as of the Effective Date. Any additional or modified instruction must be agreed by the Parties in writing and may, at Awide’s reasonable discretion, be subject to additional fees commensurate with the additional work required.
3.3. Awide shall promptly notify the Customer if, in its reasonable opinion, an instruction infringes applicable Data Protection Laws. Awide shall not be obliged to perform an audit or legal analysis of Customer’s instructions, but shall not be required to comply with any instruction that would, in its reasonable opinion, expose it to liability under applicable Data Protection Laws.
3.4. Awide shall not:
- (a) sell or share Personal Data within the meaning of the CCPA or any equivalent US state privacy law;
- (b) retain, use or disclose Personal Data for any purpose other than for the specific business purposes of providing the Processor-Layer Activities to the Customer, including any commercial purpose other than the business purposes specified in the Agreement and the Regional DPAs, or as otherwise permitted by applicable Data Protection Laws;

3.5. Awide certifies that it understands the restrictions in this Section 3.4 and will comply with them.
4. CONFIDENTIALITY
Awide shall ensure that persons authorized to process Personal Data have:
- (a) committed themselves to confidentiality under a written agreement or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;
- (b) received training appropriate to the nature of the Personal Data processed and the role performed; and
- (c) been granted access to Personal Data on a need-to-know basis under role-based access controls, with access promptly revoked when no longer required.
5. TECHNICAL AND ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES
5.1. Awide shall implement and maintain the technical and organizational measures described in Exhibit 1 to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk presented by the Processor-Layer Activities, having regard to the state of the art, the costs of implementation, the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing, and the risks of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons.
5.2. Awide may update the TOMs from time to time, provided that the overall level of security afforded to Personal Data is not materially diminished. Where required by applicable Data Protection Laws, Awide shall make available, on Customer’s reasonable request, information sufficient to demonstrate that the updated measures continue to meet the standard set out in Section 5.1.
5.3. The TOMs apply to the Awide-operated support infrastructure used by Awide to perform the Processor-Layer Activities. Security of the Customer environment (including key management, encryption configuration, network architecture, identity and access management, monitoring and logging within the Customer environment) is the responsibility of the Customer in accordance with the cloud provider’s shared-responsibility model. Awide is not responsible for security configurations, controls or incidents within the Customer environment that are not attributable to acts or omissions of Awide.
5.4. Where the Israel PPL applies to Personal Data, Awide shall comply with the security level applicable to the relevant database classification under the Privacy Protection (Data Security) Regulations, 5777-2017 (basic, medium or high), as determined in good faith by Awide on the basis of the nature, volume and sensitivity of the Personal Data shared by the Customer for Processor-Layer Activities.
6. SUB-PROCESSORS
6.1. The Customer provides Awide with general written authorization to engage Sub-Processors for the performance of the Processor-Layer Activities. Awide remains responsible to the Customer for the performance of its Sub-Processors’ data-protection obligations.
6.2. The current Sub-Processors authorized to process Personal Data in connection with the Processor-Layer Activities are listed in Exhibit 2.
6.3. Awide shall notify the Customer of any intended addition or replacement of a Sub-Processor by updating Exhibit 2 and by providing notice through Awide’s designated change-notification channel (email to the Customer’s designated privacy contact, in-product banner, or a dedicated subscription-based notification page), giving the Customer at least thirty (30) days to object on reasonable data-protection grounds.
6.4. If the Customer objects in writing during the objection period on reasonable data-protection grounds, the Parties shall work together in good faith to identify a mutually acceptable resolution. If no resolution is reached within thirty (30) days of the Customer’s objection, the Customer’s exclusive remedy is to terminate, on written notice, the affected portion of the Processor-Layer Activities, without prejudice to fees already paid for the period prior to termination.
6.5. Awide shall impose, by way of a written contract with each Sub-Processor, data-protection obligations no less protective than those set out in these Common Terms and the applicable Regional DPA. Awide shall remain liable to the Customer for the performance of each Sub-Processor’s obligations to the extent set out in Section 11 and the Agreement.
6.6. Where the Customer purchases the Software through a cloud marketplace (including AWS Marketplace, Microsoft Azure Marketplace, or Google Cloud Marketplace), the cloud provider’s own data-processing terms shall additionally apply to processing performed by that provider, in accordance with the marketplace terms accepted by the Customer. Such conditions are obligatory and are applied automatically when Customer using Software through a cloud marketplace.
7. SECURITY INCIDENT NOTIFICATION
7.1. Awide shall notify the Customer of a Security Incident affecting Personal Data processed under the Processor-Layer Activities without undue delay and, in any event, within seventy-two (72) hours after Awide has confirmed the occurrence of the Security Incident.
7.2. To the extent then known, the notification shall include:
- (a) a description of the nature of the Security Incident, including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of Data Subjects and Personal Data records concerned;
- (b) the name and contact details of Awide’s designated privacy contact (info@awide.io);
- (c) a description of the likely consequences of the Security Incident; and
- (d) a description of the measures taken or proposed to be taken by Awide to address the Security Incident, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.
7.3. Where, and to the extent that, the information required under Section 7.2 cannot be provided at the same time, Awide may provide it in phases without further undue delay.
7.4. A notification or response by Awide under this Section 7 shall not be construed as an acknowledgment by Awide of any fault, liability or responsibility for the Security Incident.
7.5. The Customer remains solely responsible for assessing whether the Security Incident triggers a notification obligation to a supervisory authority or to affected individuals under Articles 33 and 34 GDPR (and equivalent provisions of the UK GDPR, FADP, Israel PPL, and US state privacy laws), and for making any such notifications. Awide shall provide reasonable assistance to the Customer in accordance with Section 9.
8. DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS AND CONSUMER REQUESTS
8.1. Taking into account the nature of the Processor-Layer Activities and the information available to Awide, Awide shall assist the Customer by appropriate technical and organizational measures, insofar as possible, in fulfilling the Customer’s obligation to respond to verified requests from Data Subjects or consumers exercising their rights under applicable Data Protection Laws, including rights of access, rectification, erasure / deletion, restriction, objection, portability, opt-out of sale or sharing, opt-out of targeted advertising, limit use of sensitive personal information, opt-out of certain profiling, and appeal.
8.2. If Awide receives a Data Subject or consumer rights request directly in connection with the Processor-Layer Activities, Awide shall promptly redirect that request to the Customer, unless redirection is prohibited by applicable law.
8.3. Assistance that goes beyond the standard technical functionality of the Software and Awide’s standard support processes — for example, custom data extraction or bespoke deletion runs — may, at Awide’s reasonable discretion, be provided on a time-and-materials basis at Awide’s then-current professional-services rates, subject to advance written agreement on scope and cost.
9. DPIA, PRIOR CONSULTATION AND REGULATOR ASSISTANCE
Awide shall provide reasonable assistance to the Customer, at Customer’s reasonable request and at Customer’s cost (other than assistance that is part of Awide’s standard support offering), in connection with:
- (a) data protection impact assessments under Article 35 GDPR (and equivalent provisions);
- (b) prior consultations with supervisory authorities under Article 36 GDPR (and equivalent provisions); and
- (c) compliance with the Customer’s obligations regarding security of processing, Security Incident notification and Data Subject communication under Articles 32–36 GDPR (and equivalent provisions).
10. AUDIT
10.1. The Customer may, no more than once per twelve-month period and at Customer’s expense, conduct an on-site audit of Awide’s support infrastructure used for the Processor-Layer Activities only where:
- (a) a competent supervisory authority has issued a binding request for such audit; or
- (b) a Security Incident materially affecting the Customer’s Personal Data has been confirmed and the third-party reports referred to in Section 10.1 are insufficient to demonstrate compliance.
10.3. Any on-site audit shall:
- (a) be conducted by the Customer or a qualified independent auditor designated by the Customer that is not a competitor of Awide and is not engaged on a contingency-fee basis;
- (b) be subject to a written non-disclosure agreement substantially in the form requested by Awide;
- (c) be carried out during normal business hours on at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (except where shorter notice is required by a binding regulator request);
- (d) not unreasonably interfere with Awide’s operations;
- (e) not require Awide to disclose information that would breach its obligations of confidentiality to third parties, expose security-sensitive information beyond what is necessary to perform the audit, or breach applicable law; and
- (f) be limited in scope to verification of compliance with these Common Terms and the applicable Regional DPA.
11. LIABILITY
11.1. Each Party’s aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with these Common Terms, the applicable Regional DPA, and any Standard Contractual Clauses, UK IDTA or Swiss Addendum entered into between the Parties, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, is subject to the limitations and exclusions of liability set out in the Agreement, except where applicable Data Protection Laws prohibit such limitation.
11.2. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the aggregate liability of Awide for any and all claims arising out of or in connection with the processing of Personal Data under these Common Terms and the Regional DPAs in any twelve-month period shall not exceed two (2) times the fees paid or payable by the Customer to Awide under the Agreement during the twelve-month period preceding the event giving rise to the claim. This super-cap is part of, and not additional to, the general liability cap in the Agreement.
11.3. In no event shall either Party be liable to the other for any indirect, consequential, special, incidental, punitive or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, revenue, business opportunity, goodwill, anticipated savings or use of data, arising out of or in connection with these Common Terms or the Regional DPAs, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
11.4. The Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Awide, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all third-party claims, losses, damages, liabilities, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with:
- (a) the Customer’s breach of its warranties in Section 1.5;
- (b) the inclusion in any Personal Data shared with Awide of special-category data under Article 9 GDPR, sensitive personal information under US state privacy laws, criminal-offence data under Article 10 GDPR, or children’s data under COPPA, where such inclusion was not expressly agreed in writing by Awide;
- (c) the Customer’s failure to provide the notices, obtain the consents, or perform the assessments required by applicable Data Protection Laws; or
- (d) any instruction given by the Customer to Awide that infringes applicable Data Protection Laws.
11.5. Liability towards Data Subjects under Clause 12 of the EU SCCs, Clause 12 of the UK IDTA and the Swiss Addendum is not limited by this Section 11 to the extent prohibited by applicable law, but, as between the Parties, the cap and exclusions in Sections 11.1 to 11.3 apply.
12. RETURN AND DELETION OF PERSONAL DATA
12.1. Awide shall, at Customer’s choice expressed in writing, return to the Customer or delete all Support Data within thirty (30) days following the closure of the relevant support case or other Processor-Layer Activity to which it relates, unless retention is required by applicable law. Where Customer does not express a choice, Awide shall delete Support Data within thirty (30) days of closure as the default.
12.2. Awide may retain Personal Data in encrypted, access-controlled backups for so long as is reasonably necessary under Awide’s standard backup-rotation policy (and, in any event, no longer than ninety (90) days after the original deletion), subject to continued confidentiality and security obligations under these Common Terms. Backup copies shall not be used for any purpose other than disaster recovery and shall be overwritten in the ordinary course of backup rotation.
12.3. Awide may retain Personal Data to the extent and for as long as required by applicable law, in which case Awide shall continue to protect such Personal Data in accordance with these Common Terms until deletion is permitted.
12.4. Awide shall, on Customer’s reasonable written request, certify in writing that it has complied with this Section 12.
12.5. For the avoidance of doubt, Personal Data residing in the Customer environment remains under the Customer’s exclusive control and is not subject to Awide’s deletion obligations under this Section 12.
13. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
13.1. Awide is established in Israel. Awide relies on the adequacy decision of the European Commission for Israel (Commission Decision 2011/61/EU, as maintained) and the equivalent recognition under the UK GDPR and the FADP for transfers of Personal Data from the EEA, the UK and Switzerland to Awide in Israel, subject to the scope and conditions of those decisions.
13.2. Where Awide engages a Sub-Processor that processes Personal Data outside the EEA, the UK or Switzerland and no adequacy decision applies, Awide shall ensure that the transfer is subject to an appropriate transfer mechanism, including the EU SCCs, the UK IDTA, the Swiss Addendum, or, where the importer is duly certified, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, the UK Extension to the Data Privacy Framework, or the Swiss–US Data Privacy Framework.
13.3. Awide Labs Ltd., as an Israeli entity, does not itself participate in the EU–US, UK or Swiss–US Data Privacy Framework. Awide relies on the Israel adequacy decision and, where required, the SCCs / UK IDTA / Swiss Addendum executed under the applicable Regional DPA. Sub-Processors that are certified under the Data Privacy Framework (such as Amazon Web Services, Inc. and Google LLC) may rely on the DPF for onward transfers to the United States within the scope of their certifications.
13.4. Awide shall:
- (a) review the legality of any binding request for disclosure of Personal Data received from a public authority, in particular by considering whether the request is consistent with the safeguards required under applicable Data Protection Laws and the EU SCCs;
- (b) where legally permitted, promptly notify the Customer of the request and provide the Customer with reasonable assistance to challenge it;
- (c) where notification is prohibited, use reasonable efforts to obtain a waiver of the prohibition, and document its efforts; and
- (d) disclose only the minimum amount of Personal Data necessary to comply with the request and challenge the request where there are reasonable grounds to consider it unlawful.
14. NO AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING IN PROCESSOR LAYER
Awide does not carry out, on behalf of the Customer in the Processor-Layer Activities, decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal or similarly significant effects on Data Subjects within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR. Where the Customer uses the Software to carry out such processing in the Customer environment, the allocation of developer / deployer obligations under applicable law (including the EU AI Act, the Colorado AI Act and US state privacy laws) is set out in the EULA and any applicable rider, and not in these Common Terms.
15. NO CHILDREN’S DATA
The Software and the Processor-Layer Activities are intended for business users. The Customer shall not knowingly cause or permit Awide to process Personal Data relating to children under the age of 16 (or under 13 as defined by COPPA) in the Processor-Layer Activities. If the Customer becomes aware that such Personal Data has been transmitted to Awide, the Customer shall promptly notify Awide and the Parties shall cooperate to delete such Personal Data without undue delay.
16. SPECIAL CATEGORIES AND SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION
The Customer acknowledges that the Software is not designed for, and the Processor-Layer Activities are not intended to involve, the processing of special-category data within the meaning of Article 9 GDPR, criminal-offence data under Article 10 GDPR, or sensitive personal information under US state privacy laws (including, where applicable, biometric data, health data, precise geolocation, government identifiers, and information about racial or ethnic origin, religion, sexual orientation, or political opinions). The Customer shall use reasonable measures to redact, mask, pseudonymise or otherwise exclude such categories of Personal Data from Support Data and License Enforcement Telemetry before transmission to Awide.
17. TERM AND TERMINATION
These Common Terms shall remain in effect for the duration of the Agreement and any Regional DPA executed thereunder, and shall automatically terminate upon termination or expiration of the Agreement, subject to the survival of provisions intended to survive termination, including Sections 4, 7, 11, 12, 13, 16 and 18.
18. GENERAL PROVISIONS
18.1. If any provision of these Common Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision that achieves, to the extent possible, the original commercial intent of the Parties.
18.2. These Common Terms, together with the Regional DPAs and any Standard Contractual Clauses, UK IDTA or Swiss Addendum incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties on the subject matter described herein and supersede all prior agreements or understandings on that subject matter.
18.3. Except as expressly provided for Data Subjects under the EU SCCs, the UK IDTA, the Swiss Addendum and the US DPA, nothing in these Common Terms confers any rights or remedies on any person other than the Parties.
18.4. Notices to Awide under these Common Terms shall be sent to info@awide.io with a copy to the contact specified in the Agreement. Notices to the Customer shall be sent to the privacy contact specified by the Customer in the Regional DPA or, where none, the address for notices in the Agreement.
