Personal Information Protection Commitment Letter

 

In order to comply with the provisions of laws and regulations related to the protection of personal information, Party B shall fully protect the personal information of relevant data subjects in the process of Party B entrusting Party A to provide data promotion services for its customers, and Party A, Party B and customers represented by Party B may jointly, independently process the relevant personal information or accept the entrustment to process such information. In the process of processing the aforesaid personal information, Party B and its customers are obliged to abide by the provisions of laws, regulations, rules and national standards related to personal information protection (hereinafter referred to as “Data Protection Requirements”) and fulfill the obligations of personal information protection, data security and confidentiality.

 

“Personal Information” under this Commitment Letter refers to all kinds of information related to identified or identifiable natural persons recorded electronically or otherwise, but excluding anonymized information. The “processing” of personal information includes the collection, storage, use, processing, transmission, provision, disclosure, and deletion of personal information.

 

1.Party B hereby promises and guarantees that it will require its customers to comply with data protection requirements and perform personal information protection, data security, confidentiality and other obligations with the following agreements not less than those in this Commitment Letter:

 

1)The processing of personal information by the customer shall comply with the provisions of data protection requirements, strictly abide by the principles of legality, legitimacy, necessity and integrity of personal information processing, and only carry out corresponding processing activities within the scope of data promotion cooperation. In the process of processing personal information, customers shall follow the principles of openness and transparency, disclose the personal information processing rules to relevant data subjects, and specify the purpose, method and scope of processing. Data processing shall have a clear and reasonable purpose, and shall be directly related to the processing purpose and carried out to the minimum extent required to achieve the processing purpose. Data processing shall be carried out within the scope of authority of the data subject in a way that will minimize the impact on the personal rights and interests of the data subject, and shall avoid adverse effects on the rights and interests of the data subject due to inaccurate and incomplete personal information. If the relevant personal information is processed beyond the scope of authority of the data subject, the customer shall, in accordance with the provisions of the data protection requirements, obtain the authorization consent of the relevant data subject before processing, unless otherwise specified in the data protection requirements.

 

2)If the customer is involved in the transmission of personal information to the data promotion platform, the customer shall comply with the data protection requirements before transmitting relevant personal information. Unless otherwise specified in the data protection requirements, the customer has fully informed the data subject of the legal content specified in the data protection requirements such as the type, processing purpose and processing method of the personal information involved in the personal information transmitted to the data promotion platform, and has met the transparency requirements, and has obtained the authorization and consent of the data subject.

 

3)Customers uploading relevant personal information to the data promotion platform and using data promotion services will not violate data protection requirements, will not damage the legitimate rights and interests of Party A, Party A’s affiliates, relevant data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data, and will not go beyond the scope that the data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data have authorized and agreed to customers and any other relevant parties for relevant processing matters of customers.

 

26 / 74

 

 

4)If it is necessary based on the cooperation of data promotion services, and it involves the customer obtaining relevant personal information from the data promotion platform, the customer will process relevant personal information within the scope of data promotion cooperation in accordance with the data protection requirements, within the scope of authority of the data subject and according to the security rules/policies set by Party A and the data promotion platform, and must strictly ensure the security of relevant personal information. Without the written consent of Party A, the customer shall not subcontract the relevant personal information processing activities to any third party for processing. Subject to the provisions of this Article, the customer shall be solely responsible for the data processing activities of third parties. After the personal information processing activities specified in this Article are completed, unless otherwise specified by laws and regulations, the customer shall delete relevant personal information in time.

 

5)Unless Party A’s written consent is obtained and strictly limited by the data protection requirements, the scope of authority of the data subject and the scope of the purpose of data promotion and cooperation, customers shall not share, provide, transfer or publicly disclose relevant personal information to third parties, nor shall they further process relevant personal information beyond the above scope. Subject to the provisions of this Article, if it is really necessary to transmit relevant personal information to a third party, the customer shall promise that such processing will not violate the data protection requirements, will not harm the legitimate rights and interests of Party A, Party A’s affiliates, relevant data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data, and will not exceed the scope that the data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data have authorized and agreed to the customer and any other relevant parties for the relevant processing of the customer, and the customer shall strictly restrict the processing behavior of third parties and ensure the security of personal information.

 

6)In the process of data promotion and cooperation, customers may use relevant technical services (such as website construction services) of Party A or its affiliates. If the relevant technical services involve the collection or further processing of personal information of users/customers of Party A or its affiliates on any platform/product of Party A or its affiliates or other scenarios, the customer shall ensure that the relevant processing activities fully comply with the data protection requirements, including but not limited to that: The customer shall provide the relevant data subjects with privacy policies or similar documents in accordance with the provisions of the data protection requirements, inform them of the legal contents specified in the data protection requirements such as the type of data processed, the purpose and method of processing, obtain the authorization and consent of the relevant data subjects, and provide true and effective contact information of the customer to facilitate the relevant data subjects to exercise the relevant rights under the data protection requirements.

 

7)Customer will not engage in any of the following acts or activities that are illegal or contrary to good social customs through the data promotion services under the Agreement and/or the use of the processing activities in relation to the data:

27 / 74

 

 

c)Any neutral technical analysis services (including analysis reports or other services) provided by Party A or Party A’s affiliates, which are used to further create a list of target audiences involving the above information or labels, output any analysis reports or use them to promote customers’ products/services or for other purposes.

  

8)One of the purposes of Party A’s data promotion services is to provide appropriate advertising and promotion services for the target audience and provide promotion channels for products/services for relevant customers, rather than improperly mine and intrude into the specific true identity of the relevant target audience. Therefore, it is not allowed to use personal information or label categories (such as name and ID number) that reflect the true identity of the target audience. At the same time, Party A does not want customers to take advantage of the dilemma of the target audience to obtain further commercial benefits through data promotion services. Therefore, Party A is not allowed to use personal information or label categories related to the personal dilemma of the data subject to infringe personal rights or treat personal rights unfairly. In addition, the target audience affected by social prejudice and discrimination may be negatively affected in accessing information and cannot be treated fairly. Therefore, Party A is not allowed to use biased and discriminatory personal information or labels, and based on this, use data promotion services for specific categories of products or services according to the above personal information or labels.

 

9)The customer will not attempt to obtain the relevant personal information in an illegal manner or in a manner that undermines the security rules of Party A and the data promotion platform in violation of the data protection requirements.

 

10)In order to comply with the provisions of data protection requirements and for the purpose of protecting the security of relevant personal information, the customer shall take relevant technical measures (such as encryption technology) to ensure the security of personal information during data transmission and processing, and the customer shall actively cooperate with Party A to process relevant personal information in a manner that meets the data protection requirements.

 

11)The customer has the necessary organizational management system and technical measures that meet the data protection requirements to ensure the security of personal information. If a personal information security incident occurs or may occur (referring to the disclosure, damage, tampering, loss, unauthorized access and processing of personal information, and the resulting infringement on relevant rights and interests of the data subject), the customer shall immediately notify Party A in writing and take effective remedial measures at the first time. If the above-mentioned personal information security incidents are caused by the customer, the customer shall independently handle the disputes arising therefrom (including but not limited to complaints, administrative penalties, and litigation disputes), protect Party A, Party A’s affiliates, and relevant data subjects from infringement and losses, and bear all responsibilities.

 

12)If required by Party A/the data promotion platform, the customer shall provide Party A with all necessary information in a timely manner to prove that the customer complies with the data protection requirements and processes personal information within the agreed scope of the Agreement and this Commitment Letter and the scope of authority of the data subject. The aforementioned necessary information includes but is not limited to the customer’s data security capability and the processing of personal information. The information/situation provided by the customer is true and accurate, without any falsehood or concealment. Party A has the right to conduct security audits on the data security and data processing of customers, and customers shall actively cooperate.

 

28 / 74

 

 

13)When the cooperation period of the Agreement expires or the data promotion service cooperation is terminated for any other reason, the customer promises to delete or destroy all personal information obtained from Party A/the data promotion platform, including original data, backup data, etc., and ensure that it cannot be recovered by technical means after deletion.

  

2.When Party B processes personal information during the cooperation of the Agreement, Party B knows and agrees that the relevant obligations agreed in the Commitment Letter will also apply to Party B, and Party B promises to strictly abide by the requirements of the Commitment Letter.

 

3.If Party B and/or the customers represented by Party B violate this Commitment Letter, it shall be deemed as a serious breach of contract and/or infringement, and Party B and the customers represented by Party B shall bear joint and several liabilities to Party A. Party A shall have the right to require Party B and/or the customers represented by Party B to compensate Party A, Party A’s affiliates, data subjects or third parties for all losses suffered and have the right to unilaterally suspend or terminate Party B’s data promotion needs and any cooperation with Party B. Party B shall bear all legal responsibilities and shall be responsible for eliminating the impact and properly solving it.

 

4.This Commitment Letter shall not be terminated or invalidated due to the invalidity, suspension or termination of the Agreement or data promotion cooperation.

“Personal Information” under this Commitment Letter refers to all kinds of information related to the identified or identifiable natural persons recorded electronically or otherwise, but excluding anonymized information. The “processing” of personal information includes the collection, storage, use, processing, transmission, provision, disclosure, and deletion of personal information.

 

1.Party B hereby promises and guarantees that it will require its customers to comply with data protection requirements and perform personal information protection, data security, confidentiality and other obligations with the following agreements not less than those in this Commitment Letter:

 

1)The processing of personal information by the customer shall comply with the provisions of data protection requirements, strictly abide by the principles of legality, legitimacy, necessity and integrity of personal information processing, and only carry out corresponding processing activities within the scope of data promotion cooperation. In the process of processing personal information, customers shall follow the principles of openness and transparency, disclose the personal information processing rules to relevant data subjects, and specify the purpose, method and scope of processing. Data processing shall have a clear and reasonable purpose, and shall be directly related to the processing purpose and carried out to the minimum extent required to achieve the processing purpose. Data processing shall be carried out within the scope of authority of the data subject in a way that will minimize the impact on the personal rights and interests of the data subject, and shall avoid adverse effects on the rights and interests of the data subject due to inaccurate and incomplete personal information. If the relevant personal information is processed beyond the scope of authority of the data subject, the customer shall, in accordance with the provisions of the data protection requirements, obtain the authorization consent of the relevant data subject before processing, unless otherwise specified in the data protection requirements.

 

2)If the customer is involved in the transmission of personal information to the data promotion platform, the customer shall comply with the data protection requirements before transmitting relevant personal information. Unless otherwise specified in the data protection requirements, the customer has fully informed the data subject of the legal content specified in the data protection requirements such as the type, processing purpose and processing method of the personal information involved in the personal information transmitted to the data promotion platform, and has met the transparency requirements, and has obtained the authorization and consent of the data subject.

 

3)Customers uploading relevant personal information to the data promotion platform and using data promotion services will not violate data protection requirements, will not damage the legitimate rights and interests of Party A, Party A’s affiliates, relevant data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data, and will not go beyond the scope that the data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data have authorized and agreed to customers and any other relevant parties for relevant processing matters of customers.

 

66 / 74

Ocean Engine Customer Service: 400-618-1518

 

 

4)If it is necessary based on the cooperation of data promotion services, and it involves the customer obtaining relevant personal information from the data promotion platform, the customer will process relevant personal information within the scope of data promotion cooperation in accordance with the data protection requirements, within the scope of authority of the data subject and according to the security rules/policies set by Party A and the data promotion platform, and must strictly ensure the security of relevant personal information. Without the written consent of Party A, the customer shall not subcontract the relevant personal information processing activities to any third party for processing. Subject to the provisions of this Article, the customer shall be solely responsible for the data processing activities of third parties. After the personal information processing activities specified in this Article are completed, unless otherwise specified by laws and regulations, the customer shall delete relevant personal information in time.

 

5)Unless Party A’s written consent is obtained and strictly limited by the data protection requirements, the scope of authority of the data subject and the scope of the purpose of data promotion and cooperation, customers shall not share, provide, transfer or publicly disclose relevant personal information to third parties, nor shall they further process relevant personal information beyond the above scope. Subject to the provisions of this Article, if it is really necessary to transmit relevant personal information to a third party, the customer shall promise that such processing will not violate the data protection requirements, will not harm the legitimate rights and interests of Party A, Party A’s affiliates, relevant data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data, and will not exceed the scope that the data subjects or subjects with relevant rights in data have authorized and agreed to the customer and any other relevant parties for the relevant processing of the customer, and the customer shall strictly restrict the processing behavior of third parties and ensure the security of personal information.

 

6)In the process of data promotion and cooperation, customers may use relevant technical services (such as website construction services) of Party A or its affiliates. If the relevant technical services involve the collection or further processing of personal information of users/customers of Party A or its affiliates on any platform/product of Party A or its affiliates or other scenarios, the customer shall ensure that the relevant processing activities fully comply with the data protection requirements, including but not limited to that: The customer shall provide the relevant data subjects with privacy policies or similar documents in accordance with the provisions of the data protection requirements, inform them of the legal contents specified in the data protection requirements such as the type of data processed, the purpose and method of processing, obtain the authorization and consent of the relevant data subjects, and provide true and effective contact information of the customer to facilitate the relevant data subjects to exercise the relevant rights under the data protection requirements.

Ocean Engine Customer Service: 400-618-1518

 

 

8)One of the purposes of Party A’s data promotion services is to provide appropriate advertising and promotion services for the target audience and provide promotion channels for products/services for relevant customers, rather than improperly mine and intrude into the specific true identity of the relevant target audience. Therefore, it is not allowed to use personal information or label categories (such as name and ID number) that reflect the true identity of the target audience. At the same time, Party A does not want customers to take advantage of the dilemma of the target audience to obtain further commercial benefits through data promotion services. Therefore, Party A is not allowed to use personal information or label categories related to the personal dilemma of the data subject to infringe personal rights or treat personal rights unfairly. In addition, the target audience affected by social prejudice and discrimination may be negatively affected in accessing information and cannot be treated fairly. Therefore, Party A is not allowed to use biased and discriminatory personal information or labels, and based on this, use data promotion services for specific categories of products or services according to the above personal information or labels.

 

9)The customer will not attempt to obtain the relevant personal information in an illegal manner or in a manner that undermines the security rules of Party A and the data promotion platform in violation of the data protection requirements.

 

10)In order to comply with the provisions of data protection requirements and for the purpose of protecting the security of relevant personal information, the customer shall take relevant technical measures (such as encryption technology) to ensure the security of personal information during data transmission and processing, and the customer shall actively cooperate with Party A to process relevant personal information in a manner that meets the data protection requirements.

 

11)The customer has the necessary organizational management system and technical measures that meet the data protection requirements to ensure the security of personal information. If a personal information security incident occurs or may occur (referring to the disclosure, damage, tampering, loss, unauthorized access and processing of personal information, and the resulting infringement on relevant rights and interests of the data subject), the customer shall immediately notify Party A in writing and take effective remedial measures at the first time. If the above-mentioned personal information security incidents are caused by the customer, the customer shall independently handle the disputes arising therefrom (including but not limited to complaints, administrative penalties, and litigation disputes), protect Party A, Party A’s affiliates, and relevant data subjects from infringement and losses, and bear all responsibilities.

 

12)If required by Party A/the data promotion platform, the customer shall provide Party A with all necessary information in a timely manner to prove that the customer complies with the data protection requirements and processes personal information within the agreed scope of the Agreement and this Commitment Letter and the scope of authority of the data subject. The aforementioned necessary information includes but is not limited to the customer’s data security capability and the processing of personal information. The information/situation provided by the customer is true and accurate, without any falsehood or concealment. Party A has the right to conduct security audits of the customer’s data security and data processing, and the customer will actively cooperate.

 

13)When the cooperation period of the Agreement expires or the data promotion service cooperation is terminated for any other reason, the customer promises to delete or destroy all personal information obtained from Party A/the data promotion platform, including original data, backup data, etc., and ensure that it cannot be recovered by technical means after deletion.

 

2.When Party B processes personal information during the cooperation of the Agreement, Party B knows and agrees that the relevant obligations agreed in the Commitment Letter will also apply to Party B, and Party B promises to strictly abide by the requirements of the Commitment Letter.

 

68 / 74

Ocean Engine Customer Service: 400-618-1518

 

 

3.If Party B and/or its customers violate this Commitment Letter, it shall be deemed as a serious breach of contract and/or infringement, and Party B and its customers shall bear joint and several liabilities to Party A. Party A shall have the right to require Party B and/or its customers to compensate Party A, Party A’s affiliates, data subjects or third parties for all losses suffered and have the right to unilaterally suspend or terminate Party B’s data promotion needs and any cooperation with Party B. Party B shall bear all legal responsibilities and shall be responsible for eliminating the impact and properly solving it.
