Additional instructions outside the scope of the Agreement and this Data Processing Addendum require prior written agreement between Customer and Mirror, including agreement on any additional fees payable by Customer for carrying out such instructions. Customer shall ensure that its instructions comply with all laws, regulations and rules applicable to the Controlled Data, and that Mirror’s processing of the Controlled Data in accordance with Customer’s instructions will not cause Mirror to violate any applicable law, regulation or rule, including Applicable Data Protection Law. Mirror agrees not to access or use Controlled Data, except as necessary to maintain or provide the Mirror Services, or as necessary to comply with the law or other binding governmental order.

4.2 Notification of Security Incident. Mirror will promptly notify Customer after becoming aware of and confirming the occurrence of a Security Incident for which notification to Customer is required under Applicable Data Protection Law.
