18.3 Entire Agreement
This DPA, together with the Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the Processing of Personal Data and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, and representations (whether written or oral) relating to such Processing.
18.4 Amendments
This DPA may only be amended or modified by mutual written agreement of the Parties, or by MoneyMind Profile where required to comply with changes in Data Protection Laws and Regulations, provided that MoneyMind Profile provides Customer with at least ninety (90) days' advance written notice of the amendment, the amendment does not materially reduce Customer's rights or increase Customer's obligations, and if Customer objects on reasonable data protection grounds, Customer may terminate the Agreement.
18.5 Severability
If any provision of this DPA is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected or impaired. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace the invalid provision with a valid provision that achieves the same or similar objective.
18.6 Waiver
No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right under this DPA shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other right.
18.7 Assignment
Neither Party may assign or transfer this DPA without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that MoneyMind Profile may assign this DPA in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, provided that the assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this DPA.
18.8 Third-Party Beneficiaries
Except as expressly provided in the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Annex 1), this DPA does not confer any rights upon any person or entity other than the Parties.

18.10 General Interpretation
This DPA is executed in English. If translated into any other language, the English version shall prevail in the event of any conflict or inconsistency. This DPA may be executed in counterparts with electronic signatures having the same legal effect as original signatures. To the extent that the EU Standard Contractual Clauses conflict with any provision of this DPA, the SCCs or UK IDTA (as applicable) shall prevail with respect to transfers of Personal Data to which they apply. In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty, the interpretation most favorable to the protection of Personal Data and the rights of Data Subjects shall apply. Neither Party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to causes beyond its reasonable control, except this provision does not excuse Customer's payment obligations, MoneyMind Profile's security obligations under Section 8, or MoneyMind Profile's data breach notification obligations under Section 10.
Version 1.0 · Effective Date: January 20, 2026
Annex 1 — EU Standard Contractual Clauses (2021/914)
Application
This Annex 1 applies to transfers of Personal Data from the European Economic Area (EEA) to countries not recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection.
Section I — Purpose and Scope
Clause 1 — Purpose. The purpose of these standard contractual clauses is to ensure compliance with the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (General Data Protection Regulation) for the transfer of personal data to a third country.
Clause 2 — Invariability of the Clauses. The Parties undertake not to modify the Clauses. This does not preclude the Parties from adding clauses on business-related issues where required as long as they do not contradict the Clause.
Clause 3 — Interpretation. (a) Where these Clauses use terms that are defined in Regulation (EU) 2016/679, those terms shall have the same meaning as in that Regulation. (b) These Clauses shall be read and interpreted in the light of the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. (c) These Clauses shall not be interpreted in a way that conflicts with rights and obligations provided for in Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
Clause 4 — Hierarchy. In the event of a contradiction between these Clauses and the provisions of related agreements between the Parties, existing at the time these Clauses are agreed or entered into thereafter, these Clauses shall prevail.
Module Two — Controller to Processor
The following clauses apply where the data exporter is a controller and the data importer is a processor:
Section II — Obligations of the Parties
Clause 8 — Data protection safeguards. The data importer shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk (as described in Annex 3 to this DPA).
Clause 9 — Use of sub-processors. (a) The data importer has the data exporter's general authorisation for the engagement of sub-processors from the list published at moneymindprofile.com/legal/subprocessors. The data importer shall specifically inform the data exporter in writing of any intended changes to that list at least 30 days in advance, thereby giving the data exporter sufficient time to be able to object to such changes prior to the engagement of the sub-processor(s). (b) Where the data importer engages a sub-processor to carry out specific processing activities (on behalf of the data exporter), it shall do so by way of a written contract that provides for the same data protection obligations as those binding the data importer under these Clauses. (c) The data importer shall remain fully responsible to the data exporter for the performance of the sub-processor's obligations under its contract with the data importer.
Clause 10 — Data subject rights. The data importer shall assist the data exporter in responding to requests by data subjects to exercise their rights under Regulation (EU) 2016/679, as described in Section 9 of the main DPA.
Clause 11 — Redress. (a) The data importer shall inform data subjects in a transparent and easily accessible format of a contact point authorised to handle complaints. The contact point is: dpo@moneymindprofile.com. (b) In case of a dispute between a data subject and one of the Parties as regards compliance with these Clauses, that Party shall use its best efforts to resolve the issue amicably in a timely fashion.
Clause 12 — Liability. (a) Each Party shall be liable to the other Party/ies for any damages it causes the other Party/ies by any breach of these Clauses. (b) The data importer shall be liable to the data subject, and the data subject shall be entitled to receive compensation, for any material or non-material damages the data importer or its sub-processor causes the data subject by breaching the third-party beneficiary rights under these Clauses. (c) The Parties agree that if the data exporter is held liable under paragraph (b) for damages caused by the data importer (or its sub-processor), it shall be entitled to claim back from the data importer that part of the compensation corresponding to the data importer's responsibility for the damage.
Clause 13 — Supervision. (a) The supervisory authority with responsibility for ensuring compliance by the data exporter with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 as regards the data transfer shall act as competent supervisory authority. (b) The data importer agrees to submit itself to the jurisdiction of and cooperate with the competent supervisory authority in any procedures aimed at ensuring compliance with these Clauses.
Section III — Local Laws and Obligations in case of Access by Public Authorities
Clause 14 — Local laws and practices affecting compliance with the Clauses. (a) The Parties warrant that they have no reason to believe that the laws and practices in the third country of destination applicable to the processing of the personal data by the data importer, including any requirements to disclose personal data or measures authorising access by public authorities, prevent the data importer from fulfilling its obligations under these Clauses. (b) The Parties agree that the documentation listed in Annex 1-A demonstrates that the data importer has conducted a Transfer Impact Assessment and implemented supplementary measures as needed.
Clause 15 — Obligations of the data importer in case of access by public authorities. (a) The data importer agrees to notify the data exporter and, where possible, the data subject promptly if it receives a legally binding request from a public authority for disclosure of personal data, or becomes aware of any direct access by public authorities to personal data. (b) The data importer agrees to challenge the request if it concludes that there are reasonable grounds to consider that the request is unlawful under the laws of the country of destination.
