9.1 Cooperation. In no event shall this DPA or any party restrict or limit the rights of any data subject or of any competent supervisory authority. If a law enforcement agency sends Provider a demand for Customer Personal Data (e.g., a subpoena or court order), Provider will attempt to redirect the law enforcement agency to request that data directly from Customer. As part of this effort, Provider may provide Customer’s contact information to the law enforcement agency. If compelled to disclose Customer Personal Data to a law enforcement agency, then Provider will give Customer reasonable notice of the demand to allow Customer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy to the extent Provider is legally permitted to do so.

Taking into account the nature of the Processing, Provider shall (at Customer’s request and expense) provide reasonable cooperation to enable Customer to respond to any requests from applicable data protection authorities or a Verifiable Consumer Request to exercise rights (to the extent available to them under Data Protection Laws) of: access, rectification, restriction of Processing, erasure (“right to be forgotten”), data portability, objection to Processing, not to be subject to automated individual decision making, opt-out of the sale of Personal Data, or the right not to be discriminated against, in each case solely to the extent relating to the Processing of Customer Personal Data through the Services under the Agreement. In the event that any Verifiable Consumer Request is made directly to Provider where such request identifies Customer, Provider shall not respond to such communication directly without Customer’s prior authorization, unless legally compelled to do so, and instead, after being notified by Provider, Customer shall respond to the Verifiable Consumer Request. If Provider is required to respond to such a Verifiable Consumer Request, Provider will promptly notify Customer and provide Customer with a copy of the Verifiable Consumer Request unless legally prohibited from doing so.
9.3 Records. Customer acknowledges that Provider may be required under the GDPR or the UK GDPR, as applicable to: (a) collect and maintain records of certain information, including the name and contact details of each Data Processor and/or Data Controller on behalf of which Provider is acting and, where applicable, of such Data Processor’s or Data Controller’s local representative and data protection officer; and (b) make such information available to the supervisory authorities.
