The processor (InnoCraft) obligations with respect to the controller

  1. The processor (InnoCraft) will process the controller (Customer) Personal Data only in accordance with Instructions from the controller (Customer) through the settings of the Service, i.e. (a) to operate, maintain and support the infrastructure used to provide the Service; (b) to comply with the controller (Customer)’s instructions and processing instructions in their use, management and administration of the Service; (c) as otherwise instructed through settings of the Service. The processor (InnoCraft) shall guarantee the confidentiality of personal data processed hereunder. 
  2. The processor (InnoCraft) will only process the controller (Customer) Personal Data in accordance with the Agreement. The processor (InnoCraft) shall notify the controller (Customer) without undue delay if, in the processor’s opinion, an instruction for the processing of personal data given by the controller (Customer) infringes the Data Protection Legislation. 
  3. Where a data subject asserts their rights as a data subject directly against the processor (InnoCraft), this request will be forwarded to the controller (Customer) without delay. The processor (InnoCraft) may not correct, delete, restrict the processing of or provide information on the data processed under the contract unauthorised, but only in accordance with documented instructions from the controller (Customer), unless this is required by law or the Terms of Service.
  4. Every transfer of personal data to a country which is not a member state of either the EU or the EEA requires the prior consent of the controller (Customer) and shall only occur if the requirements of art. 44 of the GDPR have been met. The adequate level of protection in New Zealand has been approved by the European Commission (art. 45(3) GDPR).
  5. The processor (InnoCraft) shall ensure that all employees required to access the personal data are informed of the confidential nature of the personal data and comply with the obligations sets out in this Agreement.
  6. The processor (InnoCraft) may hire other companies to provide limited services on its behalf, provided that the processor (InnoCraft) complies with the provisions of this Clause. Any such subcontractors will be permitted to process personal data only to deliver the services the processor (InnoCraft) has retained them to provide, and they shall be prohibited from using personal data for any other purpose. The processor (InnoCraft) remains responsible for its subcontractors’ compliance with the obligations of this DPA. Any subcontractors to whom the processor (InnoCraft) transfers personal data will have entered into written agreements with the processor (InnoCraft) requiring that the subcontractor abide by terms substantially similar to this DPA. A list of subcontractors is available to the controller (Customer) in the processor’s (InnoCraft’s) Privacy policy. Prior to modifying the list of subprocessors, the controller (Customer) will be notified by email. The list will be updated within thirty (30) days of any such notification if the controller (Customer) does not legitimately object within that timeframe. Legitimate objections must contain reasonable and documented grounds relating to a subcontractor’s non-compliance with the Data Protection Legislation. If, in the processor’s reasonable opinion, such objections are legitimate, the controller (Customer) may, by providing written notice to the processor (InnoCraft), terminate the Agreement.
  7. If the processor (InnoCraft) becomes aware of any accidental, unauthorised or unlawful security breach, destruction, loss, alteration, or disclosure of the personal data that is processed by the processor (InnoCraft) in the course of providing the Service (an “Incident”), it shall without undue delay notify the controller (Customer) by email notification and provide the controller (Customer) with a description of the Incident as well as periodic updates to information about the Incident, including its impact on the controller (Customer) content. The processor (InnoCraft) shall additionally take action to investigate the Incident and reasonably prevent or mitigate the effects of the Incident.
  8. The processor (InnoCraft) shall assist the controller (Customer) in complying with the obligations concerning the security of personal data, reporting requirements for data breaches, data protection impact assessments and prior consultations, referred to in arts. 32 to 36 of the GDPR.

Customer undertakings and InnoCraft’s assistance

Appendix 1 – Technical and Organisational Measures

The processor (InnoCraft) currently observes the technical and organisational measures described below.

a) Access Control

i) Preventing Unauthorised Product Access

  • Outsourced processing: We host our Service with an outsourced cloud infrastructure provider compliant with a number of physical security and information security standards which are detailed at https://aws.amazon.com/security/. Additionally, we maintain contractual relationships with vendors in order to provide the Service in accordance with our DPA. We rely on contractual agreements, privacy policies, and vendor compliance programmes in order to protect data processed or stored by these vendors.
  • Physical and environmental security: We host our product infrastructure with multi-tenant, outsourced infrastructure providers.
  • Authentication: Customers who interact with the products via the user interface must authenticate before accessing non-public Customer data.
  • Authorisation: Customer Data is stored in systems accessible to Customers via only application user interfaces and application programming interfaces. Customers are not allowed direct access to the underlying application infrastructure. Only the appropriately assigned individuals can access relevant features, views, and customisation options. Authorisation to data sets is performed through validating the user’s permissions against the attributes associated with each data set.
  • Application Programming Interface (API) access: APIs may be accessed using an API token.

ii) Preventing Unauthorised Product Use

  • Access controls: Network access control mechanisms are designed to prevent network traffic using unauthorised protocols from reaching the product infrastructure. The technical measures include Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) implementations, security group assignment, and traditional firewall rules.
  • Bug bounty: A bug bounty program invites and incentivizes independent security researchers to ethically discover and disclose security flaws. We implement a bug bounty program in an effort to widen the available opportunities to engage with the security community and improve the product defenses against sophisticated attacks.

iii) Limitations of Privilege & Authorisation Requirements

  • Product access: A subset of our employees have access to the products and to Customer data via controlled interfaces. The intent of providing access to a subset of employees is to provide effective Customer support, to troubleshoot potential problems, to detect and respond to security incidents and implement data security. Access is enabled through “just in time” requests for access; all such requests are logged.
  • Access to Production Environment. Our backend production environment that runs Matomo Cloud is only accessible by a dedicated group of Privileged Users whose privileges must be approved by senior management. Privileged Users may only access our backend production environment via a bastion host and doing so requires 2FA both to log in and to establish a SSH via the bastion host.
  • Employees who have access to the products and to Customer data undergo required training on specific security topics, including phishing, protection of digital identities, social engineering, wifi security, and the handling of Customer Data. We maintain records of training occurrence and content.
  • We enforce strong password guidelines for all employee accounts, including requirements for password length, complexity, and the use of letters and numbers.
  • Our Clean Desk policy requires employees to keep their workstations clear of sensitive information when not in use.

b) Transmission Control

  • In-transit (to load balancer): We make HTTPS encryption (also referred to as SSL or TLS) the default and available on APIs and all user interfaces. Our HTTPS implementation uses industry standard algorithms and certificates.
  • At-rest: user passwords and API tokens are stored encrypted in the database. We use disk encryption technologies to ensure that stored data is encrypted at rest. 

c) Input Control

  • Detection: We designed our infrastructure to log extensive information about the system behaviour, traffic received, system authentication, and other application requests. Internal systems aggregated log data and alert appropriate employees of malicious, unintended, or anomalous activities. Our personnel, including security, operations, and support personnel, are responsive to known incidents.
  • Response and tracking: We maintain a record of known security incidents that includes description, dates and times of relevant activities, and incident disposition. Suspected and confirmed security incidents are investigated by security, operations, or support personnel; and appropriate resolution steps are identified and documented. For any confirmed incidents, we will take appropriate steps to minimise product and Customer damage or unauthorised disclosure. Notification to Customer will be in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. 

d) Availability Control

  • Fault tolerance: Backup and replication strategies are designed to ensure redundancy and fail-over protections during a significant processing failure. Customer data is backed up to multiple durable data stores and replicated across multiple availability zones.
  • Our products are designed to ensure redundancy and seamless failover. The server instances that support the products are also architected with a goal to prevent single points of failure. This design assists our operations in maintaining and updating the product applications and backend while limiting downtime.
  • Online replicas and backups: Where feasible, production databases are designed to replicate data between no less than 1 primary and 1 secondary database. All databases are backed up and maintained using at least industry standard methods.
