Data processing agreement (DPA)

Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

Version:
2026.04
Effective from:
April 01, 2026

This Data Processing Addendum (“DPA”) forms an integral and inseparable part of the Master Service Agreement (“MSA”) entered into between Glivo LLC (“Glivo”) and the Customer identified in the Order Form. The DPA governs the processing of personal data carried out by Glivo on behalf of the Customer in connection with the provision of the Services, in compliance with Article 28 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and applicable national implementing laws.

In the event of conflict between this DPA and the MSA in matters of personal data processing, the provisions of this DPA shall prevail.


1. Subject and roles of the Parties

1.1 Scope

Glivo may process personal data (“Customer Data”) on behalf of the Customer as part of the provision of the Services. This DPA governs such processing, in compliance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”), national laws implementing the GDPR (such as the Spanish LOPDGDD or the Portuguese Law No. 58/2019) and other applicable data protection legislation (collectively, “Data Protection Laws”).

1.2 Roles

a. The Customer acts as Controller of the Customer Data, being responsible for decisions on the purposes and essential means of processing (Art. 4(7) GDPR);

b. Glivo acts as Processor (Art. 4(8) GDPR), processing the Customer Data exclusively in accordance with the documented instructions of the Customer, as set out in this DPA, in the MSA and in the configurations made available in the Services;

c. For the registration data of Administrators and managers directly collected by Glivo (name, login email, authentication data), Glivo acts as Controller, in accordance with its Privacy Policy.

1.3 Details of processing

Details of the nature, purpose, duration, categories of data and data subjects are described in Annex I of this DPA, in compliance with Art. 28(3) GDPR.


2. Glivo’s obligations (as Processor)

2.1 Processing per instructions

Glivo processes the Customer Data only on the basis of documented instructions from the Customer (including with regard to international transfers), unless required to do otherwise by law, in which case Glivo will inform the Customer in advance, unless such notification is prohibited by law on important grounds of public interest.

The Customer’s documented instructions are:

a. The terms of the MSA, this DPA and the Order Form; b. The configurations made by the Customer in the administrative tools of the Services (roles, permissions, retention, metrics); c. Specific requests formalized in writing by the Customer.

2.2 Notice to the Customer

Glivo notifies the Customer without delay, to the extent permitted by law, where:

a. It considers that an instruction from the Customer infringes a Data Protection Law; b. It receives a legally binding request to disclose Customer Data from a public authority.

2.3 Confidentiality

Glivo ensures that any person authorized to process Customer Data is bound by an appropriate contractual or legal obligation of confidentiality (Art. 28(3)(b) GDPR), and has received appropriate training on data protection.

2.4 Security (Art. 32 GDPR)

Glivo implements and maintains the appropriate technical and organizational measures described in Annex II of this DPA, calibrated to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, in particular to protect Customer Data against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, destruction or accidental or unlawful disclosure.

Glivo may update such measures to reflect technological evolution and best practice, provided that the overall level of protection is not materially reduced.

2.5 Automatic PII anonymization

As an additional security and privacy measure, Glivo applies, before transcripts are made available to the Customer’s managers, automatic anonymization of:

  • Proper names (of natural persons and third-party companies);
  • National identification numbers (NIF, NIPC, DNI, NIE, CIF, NIN, etc.);
  • Phone numbers and emails;
  • Postal addresses and locations.

Anonymization combines regular-expression algorithms and language models. Glivo uses reasonable efforts to ensure that anonymization is effective, without absolute guarantee of removal in all cases, given the probabilistic nature of the process.

2.6 Data subject requests

Glivo, to the extent permitted by law, notifies the Customer if it directly receives a data subject request relating to Customer Data.

Glivo does not respond to such requests without prior authorization from the Customer, except where the Customer has authorized, in the configuration of the Services, automatic redirection.

Glivo, taking into account the nature of the processing and to the extent technically feasible, assists the Customer with appropriate technical and organizational measures so that the Customer can respond to data subject requests within the legal time frame of one month (Art. 12(3) GDPR).

2.7 Assistance to the Customer

Glivo provides reasonable assistance to the Customer, taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available, so that the Customer can comply with its obligations under Data Protection Laws (Art. 28(3)(e) and (f) GDPR), including:

a. Carrying out Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) involving processing by Glivo (Art. 35 GDPR); b. Prior consultations with the supervisory authority (Art. 36 GDPR); c. Responding to investigations or requests from authorities.

2.8 Data breach notification (Art. 33 GDPR)

Glivo notifies the Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal data breach affecting Customer Data. The initial notification is sent within 48 hours of confirmation of the incident and includes, to the extent of the available knowledge:

a. The nature of the incident, categories and approximate number of data subjects and records affected; b. Likely consequences; c. Measures taken or proposed to contain and mitigate the incident; d. A point of contact for additional information.

Glivo keeps the Customer up to date on the development of investigations and provides reasonable assistance to enable the Customer to comply with its obligations:

  • To notify the competent supervisory authority within the maximum period of 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach (Art. 33 GDPR);
  • To communicate to affected data subjects where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to their rights and freedoms (Art. 34 GDPR).

2.9 Compliance assessment and audit (Art. 28(3)(h) GDPR)

Upon reasonable written request from the Customer, and to the extent required by Data Protection Laws, Glivo:

a. Makes available, no more than once per year, its privacy and security policies and other information necessary to demonstrate compliance with this DPA;

b. Allows inspections and audits carried out by the Customer or by an independent third party designated for that purpose, subject to a prior confidentiality agreement, in compliance with the following:

  • The audit is carried out in a manner that causes minimal disruption to Glivo’s operations;
  • It is limited to the scope necessary to verify compliance with this DPA;
  • It is carried out no more than once per year, except in the event of a serious incident or a request by the supervisory authority;
  • The cost of the audit is borne by the Customer, except where a material non-conformity by Glivo is identified.

Glivo may alternatively make available independent audit reports (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001) to fulfill this obligation. Such reports are considered Glivo’s Confidential Information.

2.10 Return or deletion of data (Art. 28(3)(g) GDPR)

Upon termination or expiry of the MSA, Glivo, upon the Customer’s instruction given within 30 days of termination:

a. Returns the Customer Data in a structured and commonly used format; or b. Carries out the definitive deletion of the Customer Data and its copies.

Once 60 days have elapsed after termination without instructions to the contrary, Glivo proceeds with automatic deletion, except for retention required by law (financial records, court orders, defense in proceedings), in which case the data will be isolated and protected against any other processing.


3. Customer’s obligations (as Controller)

3.1 Notices and authorizations

The Customer represents, warrants and maintains, throughout the Term, that it:

a. Has an adequate legal basis under the GDPR for the processing of personal data input into the Services (in particular, legitimate interest for recording commercial interactions under Art. 6(1)(f), having performed and documented the corresponding Legitimate Interest Assessment (LIA));

b. Has provided all required information to data subjects under Arts. 13 and 14 GDPR, in particular through:

  • Visible recording signage at points of customer interaction;
  • Accessible privacy policy;
  • Seller Agreement signed by sellers before first use;

c. Has carried out a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) where applicable (Art. 35 GDPR), in particular due to the use of innovative technology or the systematic processing of workers’ data;
