Il-konformità tal-proċessur ma’ kodiċi ta’ kondotta approvat jew mekkaniżmu ta’ ċertifikazzjoni approvat tista’ tintuża bħala element li bih tintwera l-konformità mal-obbligi tal-kontrollur.
It-twettiq tal-ipproċessar minn proċessur għandu jkun regolat minn kuntratt jew att legali ieħor taħt il-liġi tal-Unjoni jew ta’ Stat Membru, li jorbot lill-proċessur mal-kontrollur, li jistabbilixxi s-suġġett u t-tul tal-ipproċessar, in-natura u l-finijiet tal-ipproċessar, it-tip ta’ data personali u l-kategoriji tas-suġġetti tad-data, filwaqt li jitqiesu l-kompiti u r-responsabbiltajiet speċifiċi tal-proċessur fil-kuntest tal-ipproċessar li għandu jitwettaq u r-riskju għad-drittijiet u l-libertajiet tas-suġġett tad-data.
Il-kontrollur u l-proċessur jistgħu jagħżlu li jużaw kuntratt individwali jew klawżoli kuntrattwali standard li jiġu adottati jew b’mod dirett mill-Kummissjoni jew minn awtorità superviżorja f’konformità mal-mekkaniżmu ta’ konsistenza u wara adottati mill-Kummissjoni.
Wara t-tlestija tal-ipproċessar f’isem il-kontrollur, il-proċessur għandu, fuq għażla tal-kontrollur, jirritorna jew iħassar id-data personali, sakemm ma jkunx hemm rekwiżit li tinħażen id-data personali taħt il-liġi tal-Unjoni jew ta’ Stat Membru li għaliha jkun soġġett il-proċessur.
(81) To ensure compliance with the requirements of this Regulation in respect of the processing to be carried out by the processor on behalf of the controller, when entrusting a processor with processing activities, the controller should use only processors providing sufficient guarantees, in particular in terms of expert knowledge, reliability and resources, to implement technical and organisational measures which will meet the requirements of this Regulation, including for the security of processing.
The adherence of the processor to an approved code of conduct or an approved certification mechanism may be used as an element to demonstrate compliance with the obligations of the controller.
The carrying-out of processing by a processor should be governed by a contract or other legal act under Union or Member State law, binding the processor to the controller, setting out the subject-matter and duration of the processing, the nature and purposes of the processing, the type of personal data and categories of data subjects, taking into account the specific tasks and responsibilities of the processor in the context of the processing to be carried out and the risk to the rights and freedoms of the data subject.
The controller and processor may choose to use an individual contract or standard contractual clauses which are adopted either directly by the Commission or by a supervisory authority in accordance with the consistency mechanism and then adopted by the Commission.
After the completion of the processing on behalf of the controller, the processor should, at the choice of the controller, return or delete the personal data, unless there is a requirement to store the personal data under Union or Member State law to which the processor is subject.
