Pantheon maintains and annually updates a documented data breach action and response plan. If Pantheon discovers or is notified of a breach of security which likely resulted in lost access to or the unauthorized access, acquisition, modification, disclosure, use or loss of any PI (collectively, a “Data Breach”), Pantheon will, without undue delay of becoming aware of the Data Breach notify Subscriber of the Data Breach and take such other commercially reasonable actions and actions required by applicable Data Protection Laws to respond to the Data Breach.

If the Standard Clauses or other applicable transfer mechanisms become invalid, they shall be replaced with other valid instruments prescribed by applicable Data Protection Laws.

All fees are non-refundable unless expressly stated in the Order Form or this Agreement. Subscriber represents that it is a lawful account holder authorized to make any payments hereunder to Pantheon. All payments are made without the right of setoff or chargeback. The Parties agree that, at the time this Agreement is entered, it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to ascertain Pantheon’s damages resulting from lost business opportunities or otherwise should any monetary amount not be paid in full when due. The Parties reasonably estimate that, in addition to all other remedies available to Pantheon, fair compensation for any amount past due shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, unless such amount exceeds the interest rate permitted under applicable law, in which case the interest rate shall be the highest rate permitted under such law. Such interest shall accrue from its due date until paid. Subscriber shall pay any taxes arising out of this Agreement expressly excluding taxes on Pantheon’s net income and all employer reporting and payment obligations with respect to Pantheon’s personnel.
