Prior to disclosing Personal Data to such Sub-processors, ActivTrak (or ActivTrak Affiliate) shall enter into a written agreement with each such Sub-processor containing substantially similar privacy and data protection obligations as those in the Agreement, applicable Ordering Document and this DPA. To the extent allowable by law, ActivTrak shall make available to Customer upon request copies of such written agreements with Sub-processors.
