If Customer fails to object to such change within this time, Customer is deemed to have consented to such change. Where a reasonable basis for such objection exists and an amicable resolution fails, Customer, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may provide written notice to Terramate terminating the Service Order with respect to those aspects which cannot be provided by Terramate without the use of the new Sub-processor. Terramate will refund Customer any prepaid unused fees of such Service Order pro-rata following the effective date of termination.
7.4. Terramate (i) remains liable under this DPA for the acts and omissions of Sub-processors and (ii) will enter into written agreements with such Sub-processors containing data protection obligations not less protective than those in this DPA, and including Standard Contractual Clauses, to the extent applicable to the nature of the services provided by such Sub-processor.
8. Data Subject Requests
8.1. If a Data Subject contacts Terramate to exercise the Data Subject’s rights regarding Customer Personal Data as permitted under Data Protection Laws (“Data Subject Request(s)”) and that the requestor identifies as originating from Customer, Terramate will not respond to such request but will instead forward such request to Customer without undue delay. To the extent Customer is unable to independently respond to a Data Subject Request, Terramate will provide reasonable assistance upon Customer’s written request.
8.2. If a Data Subject has a right to data portability with respect to Customer Personal Data, Terramate will ensure that Customer can obtain such data in a structured, common and machine-readable format.

10.2. Terramate may retain Customer Personal Data after termination of the Main Agreement only to the extent and for such period as required by Data Protection Laws. Any Customer Personal Data retained by Terramate under this section shall be Processed in compliance with the terms of this DPA and shall only be Processed as necessary for the purposes specified in the Data Protection Laws requiring its retention.
11. Cross Border Data Transfers Mechanism.
If any Customer Personal Data transfer between Customer and Terramate requires execution of Standard Contractual Clauses in order to comply with European Data Protection Laws (where Customer is the Data Exporter), the terms and conditions of Schedule 3 will apply.
12. Audit
12.1. To the extent that the Main Agreement does not otherwise give the information and audit rights pertaining to the processing of Customer Personal Data and meeting the relevant requirements of Data Protection Laws (including, where applicable, GDPR Article 28(3)(h)), Terramate will upon reasonable request make available to Customer all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with this DPA, and will allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, by Customer or an auditor designated by Customer in relation to the Processing of Customer Personal Data. Terramate will not unreasonably withhold or delay agreement to an auditor selected by Customer.
12.2. Customer will take all reasonable endeavors to minimize disruption to Terramate’s business in connection with any such audit. The audit and any information arising therefrom shall be considered Terramate’s Confidential Information and may only be shared with a third-party with Terramate’s prior written agreement.
12.3. Unless otherwise agreed in the Main Agreement, Customer will not carry out more than one audit per year of the Main Agreement term unless: (i) Customer reasonably considers it necessary because of genuine concerns as to Terramate’s compliance with this DPA or Data Protection Laws; or (ii) Customer is required to carry out an audit by Data Protection Laws, a supervisory authority or any similar regulatory authority responsible for enforcement of such laws; or (iii) if an earlier audit has identified non-conformity with this DPA or Data Protection Laws.
