Last Updated: November 13, 2023

This Data Processing Agreement (“DPA”) governs the Processing of Personal Data by VideWell, Inc. doing business as Nurse-1-1 on behalf of our client (“Customer”) in relation to the Nurse-1-1 Services as outlined in the Nurse-1-1 Customer Terms of Service found at https://legal.nurse-1-1.com/legal/customer-terms-of-service. This DPA serves as a supplementary and integral part of the Agreement between you and us, also referred to as the “Agreement.” Upon its inclusion into the Nurse-1-1 Customer Terms of Service, whether specified in the Agreement itself, an Order Form, or an executed amendment to the Agreement, this DPA becomes effective.

This includes, but is not limited to, European Data Protection Laws, and other applicable U.S. federal and state privacy laws. It also encompasses the data protection and privacy laws of Australia, Singapore, and Japan, as they may be amended, repealed, consolidated, or replaced from time to time.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that where Customer’s use of the Services includes Processing which is subject to Data Protection Law requirements with regard to the Processing of Personal Data, Customer is the Controller, Nurse 1-1 is the Processor, and that Nurse 1-1 may engage Sub-Processors pursuant to the requirements set forth below. 

3. Customer Responsibilities

a. Compliance with Laws. Under the Agreement and in your utilization of the services, it is your responsibility to adhere to all requirements imposed on you by this DPA and applicable Data Protection Laws regarding the Processing of Personal Data and your Instructions issued to us.

Specifically, without limiting the general applicability of the above, you acknowledge and agree that you bear sole responsibility for: (i) the accuracy, quality, and legality of Customer Data, as well as the methods employed to obtain Personal Data; (ii) compliance with transparency and lawfulness requirements stipulated by applicable Data Protection Laws for the collection and use of Personal Data, including the acquisition of necessary consents and authorizations (especially for Customer’s marketing purposes); (iii) ensuring your entitlement to transfer or provide us access to Personal Data for Processing in accordance with the terms outlined in the Agreement (including this DPA); (iv) ensuring that your Instructions concerning the Processing of Personal Data comply with relevant laws, including Data Protection Laws; and (v) adhering to all laws (including Data Protection Laws) applicable to any emails or other content generated, sent, or managed through the Services, including requirements related to obtaining consents (where necessary) for email communications, the content of such emails, and email deployment practices. If you find it impossible to fulfill your responsibilities under this ‘Compliance with Laws’ section, this DPA, or any applicable Data Protection Laws, you shall promptly notify us.

b. Controller Instructions. The parties acknowledge that the Agreement (including this DPA) and your utilization of the Service in accordance with the Agreement constitute your comprehensive Instructions to us regarding the Processing of Personal Data. However, you retain the option to provide additional instructions during your usage of the Service, as long as these instructions align with the Agreement and the nature and lawful utilization of the Service.

c. Security. It is your responsibility to independently assess whether the data security measures provided by the Service adequately meet your obligations under applicable Data Protection Laws. You are also accountable for securely using the Service, which includes safeguarding the security of Personal Data during its transit to and from the Service (including securely backing up or encrypting such Personal Data).

4. Nurse-1-1 Obligations and Restrictions

a. Compliance with Instructions. We will only handle Personal Data as described in this DPA or as otherwise agreed within the scope of your authorized instructions, except where required by applicable law. We are not responsible for ensuring compliance with any Data Protection Laws that are specific to your industry and do not generally apply to us. When requested in writing by Customer or where required under Data Protection Laws, Nurse 1-1 shall not: (i) sell, or share for Targeted Advertising purposes, Personal Data it receives from or on behalf of Customer, as required by Data Protection Law; (ii) retain, use, or disclose the Personal Data it receives under the Agreement and this DPA outside of the direct business relationship between Nurse 1-1 and Customer unless expressly permitted under Data Protection Laws; and (iii) combine the Personal Data it receives from or on behalf of the Customer with Personal Data it receives from or on behalf of another person or persons, or collects from its own interactions with the Data Subject, provided that Nurse 1-1 may combine Personal Data to perform any business purpose permitted under Data Protection Laws. Customer has the right, upon notice, to take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate unauthorized use of Personal Data, as required under Data Protection Laws.

b. Conflict of Laws. If we become aware that we cannot Process Personal Data in accordance with your instructions due to a legal requirement under any applicable law, we will (i) promptly notify you of that legal requirement to the extent permitted by law, and (ii) if necessary, temporarily suspend all Processing activities (except for storage and maintaining the security of the affected Personal Data) until you provide new instructions that we can comply with. If this provision is invoked, we will not be held liable under the Agreement for any failure to perform the relevant services until you provide new lawful instructions regarding the Processing.

c. Security. We will establish and maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures for protection of the security (including protection against unauthorized or unlawful Processing and against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration or damage, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Customer Data), confidentiality, and integrity of Customer Data as required by Data Protection Law, as outlined in Annex 2 of this Data Processing Agreement (“Security Measures”). While we reserve the right to modify or update the Security Measures at our discretion, any such changes will not significantly reduce the level of protection provided by the Security Measures.

d. Confidentiality. We will ensure that any authorized personnel involved in the Processing of Personal Data on our behalf are bound by appropriate confidentiality obligations, whether through contractual agreements or statutory requirements, to uphold the confidentiality of such data.

e. Personal Data Breaches. Upon becoming aware of any Personal Data Breach, we will promptly notify you and provide timely information as it becomes available or upon your reasonable request. If required by Data Protection Laws, we will offer reasonable, necessary assistance to enable you to notify competent authorities and/or affected Data Subjects about relevant Personal Data Breaches, as per your request​​. Nurse 1-1 agrees that it will not communicate with any third party, including, but not limited to the media, vendors, consumers and affected Data Subjects regarding Customer in connection to any Personal Data Breach without the express written consent and direction of Customer, unless required under Data Protection Law. Customer acknowledges and agrees that this Section 5 does not restrict or limit in any way Nurse 1-1’s right to communicate with its other affected customers and, without disclosing Customer’s identity, issue public statements or communicate with law enforcement regarding such security breach. The obligations herein shall not apply to incidents that are caused by Customer or Customer’s end users.

f. Deletion or Return of Personal Data. Upon termination of your Service, we will either delete or return all Customer Data, including Personal Data and any copies Processed under this Data Processing Agreement (DPA). This provision applies unless applicable law requires us to retain certain Customer Data or if we have stored Customer Data on backup systems. In such cases, we will securely isolate and protect the data from further Processing, and delete it in accordance with our deletion practices. If you wish to delete your Nurse-1-1 account after terminating your use of the Service, please submit a request through our privacy request form at privacy@nurse-1-1.com. We strongly recommend retrieving your Customer Data before ending your usage of the Service. If you require assistance in retrieving your Customer Data while using the Service, we will offer reasonable support at your expense, subject to the provisions of the ‘Confidentiality’ section of the Agreement.

5. Data Subject Requests

The Service offers various controls to enable you to retrieve, correct, delete, or restrict Personal Data. These controls are designed to assist you in fulfilling your obligations under Data Protection Laws, including your responsibilities concerning Data Subject requests to exercise their rights under applicable Data Protection Laws.

If you encounter a Data Subject request that cannot be resolved independently through the Service, you may request our reasonable assistance in responding to such requests or inquiries from data protection authorities regarding the Processing of Personal Data under the Agreement. You will be responsible for reimbursing us for commercially reasonable costs incurred in providing this assistance.

In the event that we receive a Data Subject Request or any other communication directly related to the Processing of Personal Data under the Agreement, we will promptly notify you and advise the Data Subject to redirect their request to you. It will be your sole responsibility to provide substantive responses to such Data Subject Requests or communications involving Personal Data.

6. Sub-Processors

You acknowledge and agree that we may enlist the services of Sub-Processors to carry out the Processing of Personal Data on your behalf. These Sub-Processors may be engaged to assist us with hosting and infrastructure, as well as to support product features and integrations.

At present, we have designated certain third parties as Sub-Processors, and you can find their details listed on our Sub-Processor Page at https://legal.nurse-1-1.com/legal/sub-processors.

Both parties agree that, by adhering to the provisions outlined in this subsection, Nurse-1-1 fulfills its obligations as stipulated in Section 9 of the Standard Contractual Clauses.

When we engage Sub-Processors, we will impose data protection terms on them that ensure, to the extent applicable to the nature of the services they provide, a level of protection for Personal Data equivalent to that outlined in this Data Processing Agreement (DPA). These terms may include the implementation of the Standard Contractual Clauses where appropriate. We will maintain responsibility for ensuring that each Sub-Processor complies with the obligations set forth in this DPA, and we will be liable for any acts or omissions by such Sub-Processors that result in our breach of obligations under this DPA.

7. Data Transfers

You understand and consent that we have the right to access and handle Personal Data worldwide as required to deliver the Service as stated in the Agreement. Specifically, Personal Data may be transferred to and Processed by Nurse-1-1 in the United States and in other locations where our subcontractors operate. Whenever Personal Data is transferred outside its country of origin, both parties will ensure that such transfers comply with the regulations set forth by Data Protection Laws. 

8. Additional Provisions for European Data

a. Scope: The provisions in this section titled “Additional Provisions for European Data” shall solely apply to European Data.

b. Roles of the Parties: When Processing European Data in accordance with your Instructions, both parties acknowledge and agree that you act as the Controller of European Data, and we act as the Processor.

However, we will make reasonable efforts to require any Sub-Processor we engage to allow us to disclose the Sub-Processor agreement to you. Additionally, we will provide you with all information we reasonably can on a confidential basis.

e. Data Protection Impact Assessments and Consultation with Supervisory Authorities. We will offer reasonable assistance to you, as per European Data Protection Laws, in conducting data protection impact assessments and engaging in prior consultations with supervisory authorities or other competent data privacy authorities, to the extent that the necessary information is reasonably accessible to us and you do not have access to such information through other means.

f. Transfer Mechanisms for Data Transfers

(C) In cases where the contracting entity under the Agreement is not Nurse-1-1, that specific contracting entity (and not Nurse-1-1) will assume full and sole responsibility and liability towards you regarding the execution of the Standard Contractual Clauses by Nurse-1-1. You should direct any instructions, claims, or inquiries concerning the Standard Contractual Clauses to that contracting entity.

If Nurse-1-1 is unable to fulfill its obligations under the Standard Contractual Clauses or breaches any warranties stated in the Standard Contractual Clauses or UK Addendum (where applicable), and you intend to suspend the transfer of European Data to Nurse-1-1 or terminate the Standard Contractual Clauses or UK Addendum, you agree to provide us with reasonable notice to allow us to rectify such non-compliance. We will cooperate reasonably with you to identify any additional safeguards that could be implemented to address the non-compliance. If we are unable to rectify the non-compliance, you may suspend or terminate the relevant part of the Service in accordance with the Agreement, without any liability to either party (subject to any fees you have incurred prior to such suspension or termination).

Annex 2 – Security Measures

We are currently adhering to the Security Measures outlined in Annex 2. Any capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this document will carry the meanings as defined in the Agreement.

a) Access Control

i)  Preventing Unauthorized Product Access

Outsourced Processing: Our Service is hosted on cloud infrastructure providers external to our organization. Additionally, we have established contractual relationships with vendors to ensure the provision of the Service in alignment with our Data Processing Agreement (DPA). We rely on contractual agreements, privacy policies, and vendor compliance programs to safeguard the data Processed or stored by these vendors.

Physical and Environmental Security: Our product infrastructure is hosted by outsourced infrastructure providers, which operate multi-tenant environments. We do not possess or maintain the hardware located within the data centers of these outsourced infrastructure providers. Our production servers and client-facing applications are subject to both logical and physical security measures to separate them from our internal corporate information systems.

Authentication: To ensure the security of our customer products, we implement a uniform password policy. Customers interacting with our products through the user interface must authenticate themselves before accessing non-public customer data.

Authorization: Customer data is stored within multi-tenant storage systems, accessible to customers solely through application user interfaces and application programming interfaces (APIs). Direct access to the underlying application infrastructure is not granted to customers. Each of our products incorporates an authorization model designed to restrict access to relevant features, views, and customization options based on the assigned user’s permissions. Authorization to specific data sets is granted by validating the user’s permissions against the attributes associated with each data set.

ii)  Preventing Unauthorized Product Use

We employ industry-standard access control measures and detection capabilities within our internal networks that support our products.

Access Controls: Network access controls are designed to prevent unauthorized network traffic from accessing our product infrastructure. The specific technical measures employed may vary depending on the infrastructure providers, including the implementation of Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), assignment of security groups, and utilization of traditional firewall rules.

Intrusion Detection and Prevention: To safeguard hosted customer websites and other internet-accessible applications, we utilize a Web Application Firewall (WAF) solution. The WAF is specifically designed to identify and prevent attacks against publicly available network services.

Static Code Analysis: The code stored in our source code repositories undergoes regular automated checks using tools that evaluate best practices and identify any detectable software flaws.

iii)    Limitations of Privilege & Authorization Requirements

Product Access: Only a designated group of employees are granted access to our products and customer data through controlled interfaces. This access is intended to facilitate efficient customer support, sales, our medical/audit team, and product development. It also serves the purpose of troubleshooting potential issues, promptly detecting and responding to security incidents, and implementing data security measures. Access is granted through “just in time” (JITA) requests, which are meticulously logged. Employee access is assigned based on their roles, and regular reviews are conducted to evaluate high-risk privilege grants, with daily initiations. Administrative or high-risk access permissions undergo review at least once every six months.

Background Checks: In accordance with applicable laws, Nurse-1-1 Health Experts may undergo third-party background or reference checks. In the United States, the results of a third-party background check are required before employment offers can be finalized. All Nurse-1-1 employees are expected to adhere to company guidelines, maintain confidentiality, and uphold ethical standards.

b) Transmission Control

In-transit: To ensure secure communication, we enforce HTTPS encryption (also known as SSL or TLS) for all login interfaces and provide it for free on every customer site hosted on Nurse-1-1 products. Our HTTPS implementation utilizes industry-standard algorithms and certificates.

At-rest: We follow industry-standard security practices when storing user passwords. We have implemented technologies that encrypt stored data to maintain its security while at rest.

c) Input Control

Detection: Our infrastructure is designed to generate comprehensive logs that capture system behavior, incoming traffic, system authentication, and other application requests. These logs are aggregated within our internal systems, allowing us to identify and promptly alert the relevant personnel about any malicious, unintended, or abnormal activities. Our dedicated security, operations, and support teams are responsive to known incidents, ensuring a swift response.

Response and Tracking: We maintain a detailed record of known security incidents, including descriptions, relevant activity dates and times, and incident resolutions. Security, operations, or support personnel investigate suspected and confirmed security incidents, identifying appropriate steps for resolution and documenting them accordingly. In the case of confirmed incidents, we take necessary measures to minimize any potential harm, such as product damage or unauthorized disclosure, both for our products and our customers. Notification regarding such incidents will be made in accordance with the terms specified in the Agreement.

d) Availability Control

Infrastructure Availability: Our infrastructure providers make commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a minimum uptime of 99.95%. They ensure redundancy by maintaining back-up power equipment, the HVAC system, and fire suppression equipment as all part of their Infrastructure Layer.

Fault Tolerance: We have implemented backup and replication strategies to ensure redundancy and fail-over protection in the event of a significant Processing failure. Customer data is backed up in multiple durable data stores and replicated across multiple availability zones.

Online Replicas and Backups: Whenever feasible, production databases are designed to replicate data between at least one primary and one secondary database. All databases undergo regular backups and are managed using industry-standard methods.

Disaster Recovery Plans: We maintain and regularly test disaster recovery plans to ensure the availability of information in the event of an interruption or failure of critical business processes.

Redundancy and Failover: Our products are designed with redundancy and seamless failover capabilities. The server instances supporting our products are architected to prevent single points of failure. This design facilitates smooth operations, allowing us to maintain and update product applications and backend systems while minimizing downtime.
