What is a sub-processor?
A sub-processor is a third-party data processor engaged by app design and custom software development. The sub-processor has or potentially will get access to personal data that app design and custom software development processes on behalf of its customers.
Why and how should I assess this?
If you choose to use app design and custom software development as a processor, the sub-processors listed will have access to personal data processed on your behalf. When you assess the sub-processors of your vendors, you need to ensure the following:
A signed data processing agreement
You need to have a signed contract in place that commits app design and custom software development to only use sub-processors with your permission.
Transfers of data out of Europe
If app design and custom software development uses a sub-processor located outside Europe, there must be a legal basis for the transfer.
