a process in which Connect receives an electronic online form via the Connect
Website and you electronically communicate your acceptance via tick box of that
offer on the online form and submitting via the Connect Website;
Connect may act on and process all completed electronic instructions,
messages, requests or communications issued or transmitted to Connect via the
Connect Website (each an ‘Electronic Instruction’) without further confirmation

agreed with the Connect representative.

remain unpaid for an extended period may also be subject to access restrictions
and/or full suspension of services until payment is made.

use of Connect.
(For definition of these terms under the GDPR see www.eugdpr.org/)

timely manner.
The subject-matter, duration, nature and purpose of the Processing,

the relevant Services to which the Processing relates. Connect may aggregate or
anonymise your Data for the purpose of product or service improvements, data science
and reporting.

Connect imposes no less stringent duties on such Sub-Processors
regarding security and confidentiality of Personal Data as those set out in
this Agreement
Connect remains responsible to you for the performance of the relevant
Services by the Sub-Processor.
Connect maintains a list of such Sub-Processors, and provides you with
reasonable notice of any addition of Sub-Processors. In order to receive such
notice, you may be required to sign up to a notification procedure. You accept
to sign up to such procedure if so requested and that your failure to do so may
result in missing the deadline to object to new Sub-Processors. You may within
five (5) business days of receiving a notice, object to the involvement of such
new Sub-Processor in the delivery of the relevant Services through providing
notice (via email to [email protected]) of objective justifiable
grounds related to the ability of such Sub-Processor to protect the Personal
Data or comply with data protection requirements applicable to Sub-Processor.
In the event that the objection is not unreasonable, the Parties will work
together in good faith to find a solution to address such objection within five
(5) business days, including but not limited to reviewing additional
documentation supporting the Sub-Processors’ compliance or trying to make the
Services available without the involvement of such Sub-Processor.
