Although healthcare providers following best practices avoid the unnecessary transmission of PHI for security purposes, Company maintains a HIPAA compliant program designed to safeguard the privacy of any PHI it receives. When a Reseller may be exposed to PHI while working with an End User, each Reseller agrees, represents, and warrants that it shall enter into a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with each such End User as part of the End User license agreement or Subscription agreement that governs Reseller's use of that PHI as needed in accordance with this Section 22. Company and Reseller agree they expect it will not be necessary for an End User to disclose or for Reseller to receive or access any PHI in the course of Reseller performing its responsibilities under this Agreement or any related agreement or addendum. Reseller agrees it will not seek or accept access to or disclosure of any PHI from an End User or unless Reseller and the End User mutually agree this is necessary for the Reseller's or End User's proper management and administration, in which case Reseller will enter into its own BAA with the End User. Reseller understands that failure to comply with these provisions may result in liability to Reseller and others, for which Reseller shall be fully liable and responsible. Reseller will not represent itself to an End User as a subcontractor of Company for any purpose, including for purposes of HIPAA or Laws or rules in other industries involving confidentiality of data to which Reseller may be exposed when providing Services.

Reseller shall (i) process and hold personal information in the strictest of confidence, (ii) protect such information, (iii) provide required notifications, and (iv) obtain all consents necessary to collect and process end user personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws. If required by applicable data protection laws, Reseller will execute a data processing agreement, or such other required documentation, and complete a privacy and security risk assessment as reasonably requested by Company, including without limitation executing standard contractual clauses in the event any European or other international personal data is transferred across national borders. If Reseller discovers or is notified of an actual, probable, or reasonably suspected breach of security or any unauthorized access to or acquisition, use, loss, destruction, compromise, alteration, or disclosure of any personal data processed by Reseller pursuant to this Agreement, then Reseller shall notify Company within twenty-four (24) hours of such discovery or notification and investigate, mitigate, or if possible, remediate, the effects of the breach.
