References to clauses and schedules are to the clauses and schedules of this Agreement; references to paragraphs are to paragraphs of the relevant schedule to this Agreement. The details of Your Subscription are part of this Agreement and shall have effect as if set out in full in the body of this Agreement.
This Agreement operates as a framework agreement which defines the contractual terms and conditions under which Hopin will supply Services to You. Whilst this Agreement remains in force, the parties shall agree the provision of Services as set out in Your Subscriptions which shall be governed by and be subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Hopin shall have no liability whatsoever for any failure of Your IT infrastructure to comply with the Recommended Specification.
You acknowledge that Hopin may change or modify the Services from time to time. Hopin shall only be required to provide You with reasonable notice of a change or modification to the Services in advance if the change of modification is in Hopin’s opinion material (and does not extend or enhance the functionality or architecture of the Services) or may substantially adversely affect Your use of the Services.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, You acknowledge that the Services have not been developed to meet Your individual requirements and that it is therefore Your responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the Services as described in Your Subscription Documentation meet Your requirements.
Following acceptance of Your Subscription, and payment being made we will contact You to provide You with access to the information You need to access and use our Services.
Please refer to Your Organiser dashboard for information and assistance around onboarding and accessing our Services. Full access to all of our online resources and FAQs is provided to all Organisers. Any support requests or onboarding assistance requested which is outside the scope of Your Subscription will be chargeable as Additional Services.
You acknowledge and agree that whilst our Services are designed for ease of use, it is Your responsibility to ensure that any individuals involved in onboarding or accessing and using the Services are appropriately trained in the use of any applicable technology and understand and are familiar with the Services and any training materials or Documentation made available to You relating to them. In the event that we identify that any repeated requests for assistance are as a result of inadequate training either in respect to Your own systems or our Services, this assistance will be provided as Additional Services, only at our discretion. You are solely responsible for ensuring that all Organisers of the Services are appropriately trained in its use. Hopin shall have no responsibility to provide support if support issues are deemed by Hopin to be the result of misuse or lack of appropriate training by You in the use of Services.

You agree to pay any applicable increase in Fees or additional Fees at the time you purchase additional Organiser accounts or Participant registrations. If for whatever reason you do not pay such Fees at the time of purchase, you shall pay such Fees within 30 days of your purchase.

Hopin may audit Your use of the Services at any time to ensure compliance with this Agreement. Hopin reserves the right at all times to monitor Your usage of the Services.

Data Protection Legislation: means the data privacy laws applicable to the processing services provided by the parties to each other, including, where applicable, the Directive 95/46/EC, as amended or replaced by any subsequent regulation, directive or other legal instrument of the European Union including by the GDPR or similar law, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 or the e-Privacy Regulation 2017, or the applicable data privacy laws of any other relevant jurisdiction, including the DPA, and all applicable formal or informal guidance, rules, requirements, directions, guidelines, recommendations, advice, codes of practice, policies, measures or publications of the Information Commissioner’s Office, other relevant regulator, and/or relevant industry body in each case in any relevant jurisdiction.
The personal data may be transferred or stored outside the EEA or the country where You and the Users are located in order to carry out the Services and Hopin’s other obligations under this agreement.
You will ensure that You have all necessary appropriate consents and notices in place to enable lawful transfer of the personal data to Hopin for the duration and purposes of this agreement so that Hopin may lawfully use, process and transfer the personal data in accordance with this agreement on Your behalf.
Hopin shall, in relation to any personal data processed in connection with the performance by Hopin of its obligations under this agreement:
(a) process that personal data only on Your documented written instructions unless Hopin is required by the laws of any member of the European Union or by the laws of the European Union applicable to Hopin and/or Domestic UK Law (where Domestic UK Law means the UK Data Protection Legislation and any other law that applies in the UK) to process personal data (Applicable Laws). Where Hopin is relying on Applicable Laws as the basis for processing personal data, Hopin shall promptly notify You of this before performing the processing required by the Applicable Laws unless those Applicable Laws prohibit Hopin from so notifying You;
(b) not transfer any personal data outside of the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom unless the following conditions are fulfilled:
(I) You or Hopin has provided appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer;
(II) the data subject has enforceable rights and effective legal remedies;
(III) Hopin complies with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation by providing an adequate level of protection to any personal data that is transferred; and (iv) Hopin complies with reasonable instructions notified to it in advance by You with respect to the processing of the personal data;
(c) assist You, at Your cost, in responding to any request from a data subject and in ensuring compliance with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation with respect to security, breach notifications, impact assessments and consultations with supervisory authorities or regulators;
(e) at the written direction of You, delete or return personal data and copies thereof to You on termination of the agreement unless required by Applicable Law to store the personal data; and
(d) notify You without undue delay on becoming aware of a personal data breach;
(f) maintain complete and accurate records and information to demonstrate its compliance with this Schedule 1 and immediately inform You if, in the opinion of Hopin, an instruction infringes the Data Protection Legislation.
Each party shall ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures, reviewed and approved by the other party, to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data, appropriate to the harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected, having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures (those measures may include, where appropriate, pseudonymising and encrypting personal data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of its systems and services, ensuring that availability of and access to personal data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the technical and organisational measures adopted by it).
You consent to Hopin appointing third parties as a third-party processor of personal data under this agreement. Hopin confirms that it has entered or (as the case may be) will enter with the third-party processor into a written agreement incorporating terms which are substantially similar to those set out in this Schedule 1 and in either case which Hopin confirms reflect and will continue to reflect the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation.
Hopin may, at any time on not less than 30 days’ notice, revise this Schedule 1 by replacing it with any applicable controller to processor standard clauses or similar terms forming part of an applicable certification scheme (which shall apply when replaced by attachment to this agreement).
