PART B

Data Processing Addendum — Corporate Clients (B2B)

 

Part B constitutes the Data Processing Addendum (“Addendum”) between Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. and Corporate Clients. It forms part of the Master Services Agreement (“MSA”) or Terms of Service (“ToS”) entered into between the parties. By accepting the MSA or ToS, Corporate Clients agree to be bound by this Addendum.

 

5.  Roles of the Parties — Corporate Clients

In the B2B context:

 

Party

Role under DPDP Act

Responsibility

Corporate Client

Data Fiduciary (Section 2(i), DPDP Act)

Determines the purpose and means of processing Client Personal Data. Responsible for obtaining lawful Consent from its employees / end users and providing appropriate Notices before sharing data with Vouchagram.

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd.

Data Processor (Section 2(k), DPDP Act)

Processes Client Personal Data solely on the documented instructions of the Corporate Client and for the purpose of delivering the Services. Subject to all Data Processor obligations under the DPDP Act.

 

Important: In this B2B context, the Corporate Client (company) is the Data Fiduciary — not a Data Principal. Under the DPDP Act, ‘Data Principal’ refers exclusively to a natural person (individual). The employees or end users of the Corporate Client are the Data Principals whose data is being processed.

 

Where Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. also processes personal data independently for its own purposes (e.g., platform security, fraud prevention, regulatory compliance), it acts as an independent Data Fiduciary for such processing, subject to its Privacy Policy.

 

6.  Scope & Instructions

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall process Client Personal Data only:

  • As necessary to provide the Services described in the MSA;
  • In accordance with the documented instructions of the Corporate Client as set out in Annex 1 and any subsequent written instructions;
  • To comply with applicable Data Protection Laws and legal obligations; and
  • As otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.

 

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall promptly inform the Corporate Client if, in its opinion, any processing instruction infringes applicable Data Protection Laws. Vouchagram shall not be obligated to follow instructions that would cause it to violate any applicable law.

 

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall not sell, share, or process Client Personal Data for its own commercial purposes without obtaining explicit written consent from the Corporate Client, except where such processing is required to deliver the contracted Services or is mandated by law.

 

7.  Corporate Client Obligations

The Corporate Client represents, warrants, and undertakes that:

 

  1. It has obtained all necessary Consents from its employees and end users (Data Principals) prior to sharing their personal data with Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd., and has provided appropriate Notices as required under Section 5 of the DPDP Act;
  2. All personal data shared with Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. is accurate, complete, and up-to-date;
  3. It shall not direct Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. to process personal data in a manner that would violate applicable Data Protection Laws;
  4. It shall promptly notify Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. of any change to the applicable Data Protection Laws that may affect the processing of Client Personal Data;
  5. It shall not impersonate any person or entity when providing personal data, and shall not suppress any material information;
  6. It shall not file any false or frivolous grievances or complaints with Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. or with the Data Protection Board of India (Section 15, DPDP Act); and
  7. It is responsible for ensuring that its own data processing activities in relation to its employees and end users are compliant with applicable Data Protection Laws.

 

8.  Vouchagram’s Obligations as Data Processor

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall, in its capacity as Data Processor:

 

8.1 Processing

  • Process Client Personal Data only on the documented instructions of the Corporate Client, except where processing is required by applicable law;
  • Ensure that personnel authorized to process Client Personal Data are subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations;
  • Not engage Sub-processors (other than those listed in Annex 2) without prior written authorization from the Corporate Client; and
  • Remain fully liable for the acts and omissions of any Sub-processor to the same extent as if the acts or omissions were its own.

 

8.2 Security

  • Implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational security measures as described in Annex 3, having regard to the risks of the processing;
  • Ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of processing systems;
  • Restore access to personal data in a timely manner following a Security Incident; and
  • Conduct regular testing and assessment of the effectiveness of security measures.

 

8.3  Data Principal Rights Assistance

  • Assist the Corporate Client (as Data Fiduciary) in fulfilling its obligations to respond to Data Principal requests for access, correction, or erasure of personal data, after validating the identity of the requester;
  • Provide necessary technical and organizational support to enable the Corporate Client to respond to Data Principal rights requests within the timelines prescribed under the DPDP Rules; and
  • Notify the Corporate Client without undue delay if it receives a request directly from a Data Principal that relates to Client Personal Data.

 

8.4 Notifications

  • Notify the Corporate Client without undue delay upon becoming aware of a Security Incident affecting Client Personal Data, with sufficient detail to enable the Corporate Client to fulfil its breach notification obligations;
  • Notify the Corporate Client promptly upon receiving a legally binding request for disclosure of Client Personal Data from any government authority, law enforcement agency, or court, to the extent permitted by law; and
  • Notify the Corporate Client if, in Vouchagram’s assessment, any instruction from the Corporate Client would cause Vouchagram to violate applicable Data Protection Laws.

 

8.5 Audit & Compliance

  • Maintain relevant records of processing activities in relation to Client Personal Data;
  • Make available to the Corporate Client all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with this Addendum; and
  • Allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by the Corporate Client or an auditor appointed by the Corporate Client, subject to reasonable notice and confidentiality obligations.

 

8.6 Return or Deletion

Upon termination or expiry of the MSA or upon the Corporate Client’s written request, Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall, at the Corporate Client’s election, securely delete or return all Client Personal Data in its possession, unless retention is required by applicable law. Vouchagram shall certify in writing the completion of such deletion or return within [30] days of the relevant request or termination.

 

9.  Data Breach Notification

In the event of a Security Incident affecting Client Personal Data:

  • The Corporate Client (as Data Fiduciary) is responsible for notifying the Data Protection Board of India under Section 25 of the DPDP Act, and for any notification to affected Data Principals as directed by the Board; and
  • Vouchagram will provide all reasonable assistance to the Corporate Client in fulfilling its breach notification obligations.

Under Section 25 of the DPDP Act, it is the Data Fiduciary (i.e., the Corporate Client) — not the Data Processor — who bears the legal obligation to notify the Data Protection Board of India of a personal data breach. Vouchagram, as Data Processor, will support the Corporate Client in fulfilling this obligation.

10.  Sub-processors

The Corporate Client provides general authorization for Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. to engage the Sub-processors listed in Annex 2. Vouchagram shall:

  • Notify the Corporate Client at least [30] days in advance of any addition or replacement of Sub-processors;
  • Impose data protection obligations on each Sub-processor equivalent to those set out in this Addendum; and
  • Remain fully liable for the performance of each Sub-processor’s obligations.

The Corporate Client may object to the addition of a new Sub-processor within [14] days of notification. If the parties cannot resolve the objection, either party may terminate the relevant Services upon [30] days’ written notice without liability.

11.  Cross-Border Transfers

Client Personal Data shall not be transferred outside the territory of India except in strict compliance with Section 16 of the DPDP Act, which permits transfers only to countries or territories notified by the Central Government of India.

Until the Central Government publishes the list of notified countries, Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall:

  • Process Client Personal Data primarily within India;
  • In the event that a Sub-processor operates outside India, ensure that any transfer is subject to the conditions prescribed under the DPDP Act and DPDP Rules at the time of transfer; and

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. shall ensure that all personnel involved in the processing of Client Personal Data are bound by appropriate confidentiality obligations (whether contractual or statutory) and are informed of the confidential nature of the data. This obligation shall survive the termination of the MSA.

 

13.  Warranties

Each party warrants that:

  • It has the legal authority to enter into this Addendum;
  • It will comply with all applicable Data Protection Laws in performing its obligations under this Addendum; and
  • Its personnel, agents, and sub-contractors engaged in the processing of personal data under this Addendum are aware of and bound by applicable data protection obligations.

 

Vouchagram India Pvt. Ltd. further warrants that it adheres to the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Information Security Management System standard and complies with the SPDI Rules 2011 in respect of Sensitive Personal Data.

Ltd. in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, unless a higher limit is required by applicable law.
