Data protection

• Bring in your Data Protection Officer at an early stage.
  
• Compile a list of the AEB solutions (products/services) you are using.
  
• On this basis collect the following information for the purpose of a comparison with the agreement:

1. Which data categories are affected by the use of the applications? Our assumption: Your employees as the users, your employees with contact information, and addresses of your business partners (customers, suppliers).
2. Which groups of data subjects are affected by the use of the applications? Our assumption: Your employees and customers.

Further data may be involved if you are screening addresses of other parties against sanctions lists. In this case you will have to make amendments to the agreement. Scroll down for instructions on how to complete these documents.

• Tried and tested, also based on reliable references
• Ready-to-use versions already aligned with our services and circumstances
• Largely uniform security basis (technical and organizational measures to ensure appropriate data security)
• Low processing costs

Further arguments for using AEB 's standard agreement:

• AEB provides IT services to a large customer base. We strive to offer the very highest standards, including services and conditions that are as uniform as possible.
• The law provides for obligations with very little room for interpretation. AEB has already made decisions on the few legal options available based on what works best for the context in which AEB services are provided.
• The agreement incorporates templates provided by BITKOM and the German Association for Data Protection and Data Security (GDD).
• Your own standard agreement no doubt complies with the law, but we assume that it contains some open passages that AEB would still need to clarify. This might include information on data categories, groups of data subjects, data security, the security concept, technical and organizational measures, designated subcontractors, and the procedure for dealing with changes to the designated subcontractors. AEB 's standard contract already covers all this ground in detail.
• Regarding business terms: AEB will support you with your controls. However, please be aware that AEB cannot provide unlimited support free of charge.
• AEB undergoes two different third-party audits at regular intervals. For this reason, please understand that AEB has a very limited capacity to accommodate changes to our standard agreement.

The security concept includes the technical and organizational measures needed to ensure adequate data security in accordance with the requirements for protecting (personal) data as set forth in Art. 32 GDPR.
