Provider may charge reasonable costs for such assistance.
• 9.7 Provider will use its best efforts to take appropriate technical and organizational measures with respect to the processing of the Personal Data against loss or against any form of unlawful processing (such as unauthorized disclosure, damage, alteration or transfer of personal data).

• 9.8 Provider will use its best efforts to inform Customer of a personal data breach (as defined in article 4(12) of the GDPR) as soon as reasonably possible, but in any event not later than 48 hours after discovery of the personal data breach.

However, Customer and/or its end-users will remain responsible for reporting the personal data breach in an appropriate and timely manner.
