Microsoft Azure. The security measures in place on the Microsoft Azure platform are specified in the DPA with Microsoft Ireland Operations, Ltd (“Microsoft”) which may be downloaded via the following link xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/licensing/docs/view/Microsoft-Products-and-Services-Data- Protection-Addendum-DPA. More information on Microsoft Azure security measures can be found via the following link xxxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/en- us/azure/security/fundamentals/overview. At the time of entering this Agreement, the Supplier makes use of the following sub- processors: The Supplier may replace or make use of new sub-processors subject to a prior written notice to the Customer giving the Customer a reasonable time to object. Updated list of sub- processors will always be available at xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/en/terms- conditions/sub-processors-list and Supplier will be considered to have provided a notification on adding a new sub-processor to Customer by publishing the sub-processor’s name on the said link. Customer may also opt to receive notifications of new sub-processors on the said link. The Customer acknowledges that personal data is being transferred to third countries as part of the processing of the Customer’s data by the sub-processors. As regards transfer of personal information to any sub-processors located outside of the EU/EEA, this will be based on the Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses which the Customer therefore instructs the Supplier to enter into with any such sub-processors on the Customer’s behalf. Supplier uses additional processors when processing personal data as an independent controller. For more information about such processing, which is outside the scope of the Agreement, see the Supplier’s Privacy Policy here: xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/en/terms- conditions/privacy-policy.
(a) The purpose of these standard contractual clauses is to ensure compliance with the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (General Data Protection Regulation) for the transfer of personal data to a third country.
Microsoft Azure. The security measures in place on the Microsoft Azure platform are specified in the DPA with Microsoft which may be downloaded via the following link xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/DocumentSearch.aspx?Mode=2&Keyword=DP A.
Microsoft Azure. 2.1. The Processor has entered into an agreement with Microsoft Corporation whereby Microsoft is a Sub-processor to the Processor acting (on the Controller's behalf) to provide hosting services via the Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform. All of Controller's data including Personal Data are hosted on the Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform in Ireland and the Netherlands. The hosting services do not take place in countries outside EU.
2.2. In the event of Microsoft’s termination of its agreement with the Processor (in whole or in part) regarding the Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform, the Processor shall endeavour to provide a new hosting service to the Controller within the EU as soon as reasonably possible. The Processor is entitled to terminate the Agreement in whole or in part with a prior notice of sixty (60) days.
Microsoft Azure. All services offered by Azure are designed to align with GDPR regulations. If customers utilizing Azure services decide to transfer data containing personal information across international borders, it is imperative for them to consider the legal obligations associated with such transfers. Microsoft offers customers a range of services and resources aimed at assisting them in meeting GDPR compliance requirements relevant to their operations1. Azure simplifies scalability and load balancing, ensuring your application adapts to fluctuating traffic. With an extensive global network of data centres, Azure enables the deployment of applications across multiple regions for enhanced performance and redundancy. It also offers strong security features, compliance certifications, and encryption tools, ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements. Azure's pricing structure is intricate, incorporating numerous variables and potential challenges, making it difficult to determine precise prices and costs2 (and it is relatively expensive). However, it employs a pay-as-you-go approach, preventing you from overpaying for features and add-ons that you may not use. Sophisticated configurations and setups, particularly those related to complex networking or scenarios, might demand a more profound comprehension of Azure. Users may perceive these aspects more challenging than similar platforms. 1 xxxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/en-us/explore/global-infrastructure/data-residency/#overview 2 xxxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/en-us/pricing/calculator/

Microsoft Azure. Auto-scaling is supported for Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines through the cloud service that contains them. VMs can be added to an availability set, which automatically scales in response to load or according to a schedule. Scaling is done by turning on and off previously created VMs. Scaling can be triggered based on CPU usage or queue length; the number of instances that are added or removed by a single scaling action is controllable; and a minimum wait time (cool-down) between scaling actions can be set to avoid thrashing. Azure automatically configures network properties for each deployed VM; in particular, it fully controls and manages the internal IP (non-routable) address of each VM. It is possible to assign public VIPs to VMs and have Azure load balance traffic both locally (in region) and globally (geo-route). Multiple end-points can be configured on each VM to support different protocols, networks, and policies (e.g., ACL). VPNs and private networks are supported via Virtual Networks (VNets), which can either be cloud-only or cross-premise; VMs can be assigned to these VNets, however, there is no direct control over the network infrastructure.
Microsoft Azure. By entering this Agreement, Customer acknowledges that if Node4 resells the Azure Services to you then your use of those Azure Services is subject to the Microsoft Customer Agreement, a current copy of which is located at: xxxxx://xxxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/en-us/partner- center/csp-documents-and-learning-resources and which shall be effective without signature, and this Agreement. Customer release Node4 from any and all liability whatsoever arising out of or in connection with the Azure Services, Microsoft’s provision, management or operation of the Azure Services, and Microsoft’s exercise of its rights in the Microsoft Customer Agreement or your breach thereof.
