When handling the personal information, Party B and its agent clients have the obligation to abide by the laws, regulations, rules and national standards related to personal information protection (hereinafter referred to as “Data Protection Requirements”), and fulfill the obligations of personal information protection, data security and confidentiality.

“Personal information” under the Letter of Commitment refers to all kinds of information related to identified or identifiable natural persons recorded electronically or by other means, but does not include anonymous information. The “handling” of personal information includes the collection, storage, use, processing, transmission, provision, disclosure and deletion of personal information.

1.

Party B hereby promises and guarantees that it will require its agent clients to comply with the Data Protection Requirements and fulfill the obligations of personal information protection, data security and confidentiality with the following agreements not less than those in the Letter of Commitment:

the authorization and consent of the relevant data subject according to the Data Protection Requirements, unless otherwise provided for in the Data Protection Requirements.

2

If a client intends to transmit personal information to the Data Promotion Platform, it must comply with the Data Protection Requirements before transmitting. Unless otherwise stipulated in the Data Protection Requirements, the client has fully informed the data subject of the legal contents stipulated in the Data Protection Requirements such as the types, handling purposes and handling methods of the personal information involved in the personal information transmitted to the Data Promotion Platform, and obtained the authorization and consent of the data subject.

3

Where a client uploads relevant personal information to the Data Promotion Platform and uses the Data Promotion Services, it will not violate the Data Protection Requirements, nor harm the legitimate rights and interests of Party A, Party A’s affiliated companies, relevant data subjects, or entities with relevant rights over data, nor exceed the scope of authorization and consent of the data subject or entities with relevant rights over data to the client and any other relevant parties regarding the relevant information handling matters.

In case of the above personal information security incidents caused by client, the client shall independently handle the disputes arising therefrom (including but not limited to complaints, administrative penalties and litigations), so that Party A, Party A’s affiliated companies and relevant data subjects are free from infringement and loss, and bear all responsibilities.

12

At the request of Party A/Data Promotion Platform, the client shall provide Party A with all necessary information in a timely manner to prove that the client complies with the Data Protection Requirements and handles personal information within the agreed scope of the Agreement and the Letter of Commitment and the authorized scope of the data subject. The aforesaid necessary information includes but is not limited to the client’s data security capability and the handling of personal information. The information provided by the client shall be true and accurate without any falsehood or concealment. Party A has the right to conduct security audit on the client’s data security and data handling, and the client shall actively cooperate in such audit.

13When the cooperation period of the Agreement expires or the data promotion service cooperation is terminated for any other reason, the client promises to delete or destroy all personal information obtained from Party A/Data Promotion Platform, including original data and backup data, and guarantees that these personal information cannot be restored by technical means after deletion.
