Processing Agreement

De verwerking van persoonsgegevens is geregeld in artikel 8 van de algemene voorwaarden van PNO die op bijgevoegde overeenkomst (de PA) van toepassing zijn.
Bijgevoegde verwerkersovereenkomst wijkt daarvan af en stelt dat PNO verwerker van persoonsgegevens is terwijl PNO juist heeft gesteld verwerkingsverantwoordelijke van persoonsgegevens te zijn.
Nakoming van de verplichtingen genoemd in met name de artikelen … t/m … van bijgevoegde verwerkersovereenkomst is mogelijk voor PNO niet haalbaar. Het is aan de directie van PNO om te bepalen of die overeenkomst desondanks wordt aanvaard.
