Data Processing Agreement
Download our Data Processing Agreement (DPA) template or request a signed version to ensure compliance with UK GDPR, EU GDPR, and the Data Protection Act 2018.
A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is a legal contract between HeySummit (as Data Processor) and our customers (as Data Controller) that outlines how personal data is processed, stored, and protected when using our services. This agreement is essential for UK GDPR, EU GDPR, and Data Protection Act 2018 compliance and ensures that both parties understand their responsibilities regarding data protection.
What is a Data Processing Agreement?
A DPA is a legally binding document that defines:
The scope and purpose of data processing
The categories of personal data being processed
The rights and obligations of both the data controller (you) and data processor (HeySummit)
Security measures and data protection protocols
Procedures for data breaches and incident response
Terms for data retention and deletion
Who needs a Data Processing Agreement?
If you are using HeySummit to process personal data of UK or EU residents, or if your organization is subject to GDPR or similar data protection regulations, you will need a DPA in place. This includes:
Organizations hosting events that collect attendee personal data
Companies using HeySummit for marketing or lead generation purposes
Educational institutions managing student or participant data
Any entity that acts as a data controller when using our services
Data Processing and Subprocessors
Our DPA covers the processing of personal data including names, email addresses, IP addresses, event registration data, usage data, and support queries for data subjects such as event attendees, speakers, organisers, and team members.
The agreement also includes transparency about our trusted subprocessors:
Amazon Web Services (AWS) – Infrastructure and hosting services
Stripe – Payment processing services
Intercom – Customer support communications platform
The list of subprocessors may be updated from time to time. Customers will be notified where legally required.
