If the Personal Data Controller opposes the proposed subcontractor or withdraws its previous consent to the use of a subcontractor, the Personal Data Controller has the right to terminate this Assistance Agreement and other agreements entered into that concern the processing of personal data. During the notice period, personal data may not be transferred to the new subcontractor.
8.3 In cases where the Personal Data Processor engages a subcontractor, it is the Personal Data Processor's responsibility that the engaged subcontractor performs the assignment in such a way that the subcontractor fulfills all the commitments and observes the restrictions that follow from this Subcontractor Agreement or the Applicable Data Protection Act.

12.1 This applies as long as the Personal Data Assistant processes personal data on behalf of the Personal Data Controller due to this Assistant Agreement or the Main Agreement.
12.2 Upon termination of the Main Agreement (regardless of the reason), the Personal Data Processor's processing of the Personal Data Controller's personal data shall cease. The Personal Data Controller must then, in accordance with instructions from the Personal Data Controller, return or destroy all data containing personal data that the Personal Data Controller handed over to the Personal Data Controller or that otherwise came to the Personal Data Controller, including such data generated during the Personal Data Controller's processing of the Personal Data Controller's data, in a format reasonably requested by the Personal Data Controller and storage medium no later than three (3) months after the Main Agreement or this Subsidiary Agreement ceased to apply. Such return or such destruction of data shall mean that the relevant data shall no longer remain and cannot be reproduced with the Personal Data Processor or in the Personal Data Processor's system. In the event that destruction is to take place, the Personal Data Officer must, without delay, confirm in writing that destruction has taken place. This clause 12.2 applies unless the Applicable Data Protection Act or other legislation applicable to the Personal Data Processor's activities prevents the Personal Data Processor from returning or deleting the personal data. In such cases, the Personal Data Officer must handle all personal data with confidentiality and not process the personal data beyond what is permitted under the Applicable Data Protection Act or other applicable legislation. Regardless of what is stipulated above, the Personal Data Officer has the right to retain and use anonymized data for use for statistics, market research and product development.
13. Additions and changes
