The liability of Processor for direct damage will in total never exceed € 10,000.00.
- Direct damage is exclusively understood to mean all damage consisting of:
- damage directly caused to property ("property damage");
- reasonable and demonstrable costs to instruct the Processor to perform the DPA (again) properly;
- reasonable costs to determine the cause and extent of the damage insofar as related to the direct damage as meant here; and
- reasonable and demonstrable costs that Controller has incurred to prevent or limit the direct damage as referred to in this article.
- The liability of the Processor for indirect damage is excluded. Indirect damage is understood to mean all damage that is not direct damage and therefore in any case, but not limited to, consequential loss, lost profit, missed savings, reduced goodwill, loss due to business stagnation, damage due to non-determination of marketing objectives, damage related to the use of data or data files prescribed by the Controller, or loss, mutilation or destruction of data or data files.
- The exclusions and limitations referred to in this article shall lapse if and insofar as the damage is the result of intent or deliberate recklessness on the part of the Processor or its management.
- Unless performance by Processor is permanently impossible, the liability of Processor due to imputable shortcoming in the performance of the DPA only arises if Controller promptly gives the Processor notice of default in writing, whereby a reasonable period for the purification of the shortcoming is set, and Processor also after this term remains attributable to the fulfillment of its obligations. The notice of default must contain as complete and detailed a description of the shortcoming as possible, so that Processor is given the opportunity to respond adequately.
- Any claim for compensation by Controller against Processor that has not been specified and explicitly reported shall expire by the mere lapse of twelve (12) months after the claim arose.
