6.1 Subject to the following provisions, Yandex may not commission third parties with the Processing of Personal Customer Data without your consent ("Order Data Sub-Processor") except as provided in clause 6.2.

6.2 Yandex may contract a subcontractor for the data Processing if the subcontractor is an affiliated enterprise ("Affiliated Order Data Sub-Processors") and if a data processing agreement pursuant to the requirements outlined in this paragraph are met. A legally separate enterprise that with respect to Yandex is a subsidiary and parent enterprise, controlled or controlling enterprise, member of a group, enterprises with cross-shareholdings, or party to an enterprise agreement shall constitute affiliated enterprises. A data Sub-Processor agreement requires that Yandex (a) ensures that the Affiliated Order Data Sub-Processors fulfil Yandex' duties and (b) assumes liability towards the customers for actions and/or absence of actions of the Affiliated Order Data Sub-Processors concerned as if these actions were taken by Yandex itself. In this context, affiliated subcontractors may also have their seat outside the area of Member States of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, if Yandex enters into appropriate guarantees as required by Art. 46 GDPR and passes down its own Processing obligations under this Agreement to any such sub-processor.

Where Order Data Sub-Processor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations, Yandex shall remain fully liable to you for the performance of Order Data Sub-Processor’s obligations.

6.5 Insofar as companies providing ancillary performances for Yandex in connection with the provision of services do not constitute Order Data Sub-Processors, Yandex will make reasonable efforts to establish an adequate contractual protection vis-à-vis such providers of ancillary performances in regard to the data security.
