4.3    In respect of any transfer of data to non-ECC territories, and to provide further appropriate safeguards and additional measures so as to align with the equivalent level of protection as in the ECC, the Company will, to the reasonable extent that it is able, seek protective injunctions preventing any governmental entity from accessing, in breach of the Data Protection Laws, any Personal Data held by Company in such non-ECC territories upon becoming aware of the same. Further, Company, upon becoming aware of the same, and to the extent permitted by law, will inform Client of any access or attempted access made by governmental entities in breach of the Data Protection Laws in respect of Personal Data.

4.4    If any Personal Data transfer from Company to any non-EEA Sub-processor requires execution of the Standard Contractual Clauses in order to comply with the Data Protection Laws, the Client hereby authorises Company to enter into the Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) with the Sub-processor for and on behalf of the Client as the relevant data exporter and the details contained in Schedule 1 shall form appendix 1 of the Standard Contractual Clauses (to the extent applicable). Company shall make the executed Standard Contractual Clauses available to the Client on written request.
