  4. In case, within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions, or within the Agreement,the Wbp is referred to, from the 25th of May 2018 onwards, the corresponding provisions of

  2. The Contractor shall ensure that all persons acting under its authority, insofar as they have access to personal data from Client, will only process such personal data on the Client’s instructions.
  3. The Contractor is allowed to process the personal data in countries within the European Union. In addition, Client grants Contractor its approval to process the personal data within a country outside the European Union, in compliance with the relevant applicable laws and regulations.
