A service provider that contractually agrees to comply with the standard clauses gives its customers the assurance that personal data will be transferred and processed in accordance with EU data protection legislation. The use of the standard clauses also means that customers will have to obtain fewer authorisations from individual data protection authorities in order to transfer personal data outside the EU. Notices and procedures for asserting claims of intellectual property infringement. Microsoft respects the intellectual property rights of third parties. If you wish to send a notice of intellectual property infringement, including claims of copyright infringement, please use our procedures to file notices of infringement (www.microsoft.com/info/cpyrtInfrg.html). ONLY REQUESTS RELEVANT TO THIS PROCEDURE WILL RECEIVE A RESPONSE. This directive defines the basis for the processing of personal data in the EU. It is the legal framework within which Microsoft transfers personal data from the EU. In accordance with this Policy and our contractual agreements, Microsoft acts as a processor of Customer Data. Customer acts as a data controller with ultimate ownership and responsibility for ensuring that data can lawfully be made available to Microsoft for processing outside the EEA. A sub-processor is a person who processes personal data in accordance with the controller`s instructions and under the EU Model Clauses and the subcontract.

Microsoft customers, especially independent software vendors (ISVs), are sometimes data processors themselves. In these cases, Microsoft is the subcontractor. Compliance is a contractual obligation. The Microsoft Standard Contractual Clauses are available to all cloud customers in the Online Services Terms of Service. Additional services are available in your existing agreement with Microsoft. Notices and procedures relating to intellectual property issues in advertising. Please read our Intellectual Property Policy (go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=243207) regarding intellectual property issues in our advertising network. 14. Service Specific Terms.

This Section and Sections 1, 9 (for amounts committed prior to the end of these Terms), 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 18 and those applicable under their Terms after the expiration of the Terms shall survive any termination or cancellation of these Terms.

This is the entire agreement between you and Microsoft for your use of the Services. It supersedes all prior agreements between you and Microsoft with respect to your use of the Services. All parts of these Terms apply to the fullest extent permitted by law. If a court or arbitrator finds that we cannot enforce any part of these Terms as written, we may replace these Terms with similar terms to the extent that they are enforceable under applicable law, but the rest of these Terms will not change.

Section 15.i sets out what happens if portions of Section 15 (arbitration and class action waiver) are found to be illegal or unenforceable. Article 15.i shall prevail over this Article if it does not comply with it. Except for Section 15 (Arbitration and Class Action Waiver), these Terms are for your and our benefit only; You are not in favor of any other person, other than Microsoft`s successors and assigns. European Union (EU) data protection law regulates the transfer of personal data of EU customers to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), which includes all EU countries as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. Eu Standard Contractual Clauses are standard contractual clauses used in agreements between service providers (e.B. Microsoft) and their customers to ensure that all personal data leaving the EEA is transferred in accordance with EU data protection law and the requirements of the European Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC.
