Data Processing Addendum
Version 1.0·Last updated: 23 April 2026
This Data Processing Addendum (the "DPA") forms part of, and is governed by, the Traject AI Terms of Service. It applies where Traject AI processes Personal Data on your behalf under Article 28 of the GDPR, equivalent UK GDPR obligations, and India's DPDP Act.
1. Parties and scope
This DPA is entered into between Traject AI Technologies ("Processor"), a business based in India, and you, the business entity that subscribes to the Platform ("Controller"). It applies to all Personal Data that Processor handles on behalf of Controller while delivering the Platform, and forms a contract under Article 28 GDPR.
2. Definitions
Terms not defined here take their meaning from the GDPR / UK GDPR / DPDP Act.
- Platform — the Traject AI AI-agent service described at traject-ai.in.
- Personal Data — any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person processed under the Terms of Service.
- Data Subject — the end customer or other natural person whose Personal Data is processed.
- Sub-processor — a third party engaged by Processor to process Personal Data on Controller's behalf.
- SCCs — the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission in Decision 2021/914.
3. Scope and instructions
Processor will process Personal Data only (a) on documented instructions from Controller, (b) to deliver the Platform as described in the Terms of Service, and (c) as required by applicable law. The subject matter, duration, nature, purpose, categories of Data Subjects and Personal Data are set out in Annex I.
4. Processor obligations
- Process Personal Data only on Controller's documented instructions.
- Ensure that personnel authorised to process Personal Data are bound by confidentiality.
- Implement appropriate technical and organisational measures ("TOMs") as set out in Annex II.
- Assist Controller with Data Subject rights requests (access, rectification, erasure, portability, restriction, objection) within reasonable timeframes.
- Assist Controller with data protection impact assessments and prior consultations with supervisory authorities.
- Notify Controller without undue delay — and in any event within 72 hours of becoming aware — of any Personal Data breach affecting Controller's data.
- On termination, delete or return all Personal Data within 30 days, except where law requires retention.
- Make available all information necessary to demonstrate compliance, and allow for audits as described in Section 9.
5. Sub-processors
Controller gives general written authorisation for Processor to engage the sub-processors listed in Annex III to deliver the Platform. Processor will:
- Impose on each sub-processor, by written contract, data-protection obligations no less protective than this DPA.
- Give Controller at least 30 days' notice of any intended addition or replacement of a sub-processor.
- Allow Controller to object to such changes on reasonable data-protection grounds; if the objection cannot be resolved, Controller may terminate the affected service with pro-rata refund.
6. International transfers
Where Processor transfers Personal Data of Data Subjects in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland to a country not recognised as providing adequate protection, the transfer is governed by the SCCs (Module 2: Controller to Processor), which are hereby incorporated by reference. For transfers out of the UK, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum applies; for transfers out of Switzerland, the revised Swiss DPA applies with the term "member state" read as "Switzerland".
For Data Subjects in India, transfers are made in line with the DPDP Act 2023 and applicable Central Government notifications on permissible cross-border transfers.
7. Security measures
Processor maintains the technical and organisational security measures described in Annex II and at /trust. These measures are subject to continuous improvement and may be updated provided that the overall level of protection is not reduced.
8. Assistance with Data Subject rights
Processor provides self-service tools in the Tenant dashboard that enable Controller to retrieve, correct, export, or delete Data Subject records without Processor's intervention. Where a Data Subject contacts Processor directly, Processor will promptly forward the request to Controller and assist as reasonably required.
9. Audits
- Processor will make available to Controller all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with Article 28 GDPR.
- Controller may audit Processor's compliance once per calendar year, on 30 days' notice, during normal business hours, at Controller's expense.
- Where an external certification (e.g. SOC 2, ISO 27001) is available, Controller will accept such certification in lieu of an on-site audit unless it has specific cause for concern.
10. Breach notification
Processor will notify Controller at the contact email on Controller's account within 72 hours of becoming aware of a Personal Data breach, and will include: the nature of the breach, categories and approximate numbers of Data Subjects and records affected, likely consequences, and measures taken or proposed to mitigate.
11. Return and deletion
On expiry or termination of the Terms of Service, Processor will, at Controller's choice, delete or return all Personal Data within 30 days. Backup copies are purged on the normal backup rotation (within 30 days of the deletion date). Retention beyond this period occurs only where required by law; such retained data is isolated and access-restricted.
12. Liability
The limitation of liability in Section 13 of the Terms of Service applies to this DPA, except where mandatory law (including GDPR Article 82) provides otherwise.
13. Governing law and precedence
This DPA is governed by the same law as the Terms of Service, except that the SCCs are governed by the law of the EU member state specified in Clause 17 thereof (defaulting to Ireland). In the event of conflict, (a) the SCCs prevail over the DPA, and (b) this DPA prevails over the Terms of Service in respect of data-protection matters.
