     🇪🇺 

## 6. Data Processing & GDPR / UK GDPR Compliance

   Applies to: Customers processing personal data of individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom.  

### Roles and Responsibilities

  Customer as Data Controller: When you use Grapphen to process personal data of candidates, employees, or other individuals in the EEA/UK, you are the Data Controller responsible for ensuring a lawful basis for that processing. Grapphen as Data Processor: Grapphen processes personal data only on your documented instructions, as set out in our Data Processing Agreement (DPA).  

### Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

 

Our DPA, which forms part of these Terms, governs the processing of personal data subject to GDPR (EU) 2016/679 or the UK Data Protection Act 2018. The DPA includes:

  Subject matter, nature, purpose, and duration of processing Categories of data subjects and types of personal data processed Customer's obligations as Data Controller and Grapphen's obligations as Data Processor Sub-processor list and notification obligations Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for international data transfers Security measures and breach notification procedures Data subject rights fulfilment assistance  

Enterprise customers automatically receive our DPA as part of their subscription agreement. All other customers may request the full DPA from hello@grapphen.com.

 

### Your Obligations as Data Controller

  Ensure you have a lawful basis (GDPR Art. 6 / Art. 9) for processing each category of candidate data. Provide candidates with required privacy notices/DPIA information before processing begins. Comply with all applicable data protection laws for the jurisdictions in which you recruit. Implement appropriate data minimisation — only upload data necessary for the recruitment purpose. Ensure candidate data is accurate and kept for no longer than necessary. Not use the Platform to collect or process special categories of personal data (GDPR Art. 9) without explicit candidate consent and an appropriate legal basis.      🇺🇸 

## 7. CCPA / CPRA Service Provider Obligations

   Applies to: Customers processing personal information of California residents.  

For the purposes of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), Grapphen acts as a "Service Provider" when processing California residents' personal information on behalf of our business customers (who are "Businesses" under CCPA).

 

In this capacity, Grapphen:

  Processes personal information only for the business purpose of providing the Services and as permitted by the CCPA Service Provider exception. Does not sell or share California personal information, or use it for any purpose other than performing the contracted services. Does not retain, use, or disclose personal information outside the direct business relationship. Assists Customers in fulfilling California consumer rights requests (deletion, access, correction, opt-out) within the timeframes required by law. Maintains a Data Processing Addendum meeting CCPA § 1798.100(d) requirements, available upon request.  

Customer Obligations: Customers who are "Businesses" under CCPA are responsible for: providing required notices at point of collection; maintaining valid service provider contracts; not directing Grapphen to process data in ways that would violate CCPA; and responding to verified consumer requests within statutory timelines.

     🔐 

## 8. Security Commitments (SOC 2 Type II / ISO 27001)

  

Grapphen maintains industry-standard security controls aligned with:

    FrameworkCommitment   SOC 2 Type IIAnnual third-party audit against AICPA Trust Services Criteria (Security, Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, Privacy).

Business ContinuityGeo-redundant infrastructure; RPO 1hr / RTO 4hr.

  Cloud Infrastructure: Grapphen's platform is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). By using our Services, you acknowledge that data processing is subject to AWS infrastructure policies. Relevant AWS policies include:  AWS Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) AWS Service Terms  Grapphen's use of AWS services is governed by the AWS Customer Agreement and the above linked policies.      🤖 

## 9. AI Services, Automated Decisions & EU AI Act

   Important: Grapphen's AI screening and scoring tools are designed to assist human decision-makers, not replace them. All hiring decisions remain the responsibility of the Customer (employer/recruiter).  

### Nature of AI Features

  Grapphen's AI features generate recommendations, scores, and insights from candidate data to help recruiters prioritise and evaluate applications more efficiently. AI outputs are probabilistic and should be used as one input among many in the recruitment process. Grapphen does not guarantee that AI recommendations will result in successful hires or absence of any bias.  

### EU AI Act — High-Risk AI System Obligations

 

AI systems used in employment contexts are classified as High-Risk under Annex III of the EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689). The following obligations apply:

    ObligationGrapphen's CommitmentCustomer Obligation   Risk ManagementMaintains documented AI risk management system throughout model lifecycleConduct internal assessment of AI use within your organisation Data GovernanceTrains models on representative, bias-tested datasetsEnsure candidate data submitted is lawfully obtained Technical DocumentationMaintains technical docs; provides to competent authorities upon requestMaintain your own records of AI system deployment Transparency to UsersProvides instructions for intended use, limitations, and override proceduresRead and follow provided usage guidelines Human OversightPlatform is designed to enable human intervention at every stepEnsure qualified humans review AI outputs before taking employment action Accuracy & RobustnessMonitors post-deployment performance; updates models regularlyReport systematic errors or unexpected outputs to support Candidate NotificationProvides template disclosures for clientsNotify candidates when AI is used in their assessment Conformity AssessmentConducts internal assessments; registers in EU AI system database as requiredMay have independent registration obligations as "deployer"    

### Customer Obligations as AI Deployer

 

Under the EU AI Act, Customers deploying Grapphen's high-risk AI systems within the EU are considered "deployers" and must:

  Use the AI system only in accordance with Grapphen's instructions and the intended purpose. Assign human oversight to qualified personnel with necessary authority and competence. Implement provided monitoring and human oversight measures. Inform and consult with workers' representatives (where applicable) before deployment. Register as a deployer in the applicable EU national authority's database if required. Report serious incidents or malfunctions to Grapphen promptly.  

Grapphen does not guarantee compliance with laws that apply specifically to Customers in their capacity as employers, including the EU AI Act's deployer obligations, employment discrimination laws, or sector-specific regulations.

     🏙️ 

## 10. NYC Local Law 144 — Automated Employment Decision Tools

   Applies to: Customers using Grapphen's AI features to screen candidates or employees residing in New York City.  

Customer Obligations (Employers/Employment Agencies under LLC 144):

  Commission and publish an independent bias audit of the AI employment decision tool(s) at least annually, covering sex, race, and ethnicity impact analysis. Post audit results on your website before using the tool, including the date of the audit and the tool's distribution date. Provide plain-language notice to NYC-based candidates and employees at least 10 business days before the tool is used, including information about how to request an alternative selection process. Provide a reasonable alternative selection process or accommodation to candidates who request one.  

Grapphen's Support: We assist compliance by:

  Conducting and providing results of annual independent bias audits of our AI screening systems. Providing documented descriptions of tool characteristics, job qualifications evaluated, and data used. Supplying templated candidate notice language for clients to include in job postings or application workflows. Supporting alternative (non-AI) review workflows within the Platform.  

Customers remain the primary responsible party under NYC Local Law 144. Failure to comply with the law is the Customer's responsibility as the employer or employment agency covered by the ordinance.

     🎥 

## 11. Illinois Artificial Intelligence Video Interview Act

   Applies to: Customers using Grapphen's video interview AI analysis for Illinois-based applicants.  

Under 820 ILCS 42/ (Illinois AIVIA), Customers using AI to analyse video interviews of Illinois job applicants must:

  Consent Capture: Collect prior written consent from each applicant before requiring or administering a video interview where AI analysis will be used. Grapphen provides in-platform consent capture workflows; Customers must activate and configure them. Disclosure: Inform applicants before the interview that AI will be used, and explain the general types of characteristics AI will evaluate. No Third-Party Sharing: Not share the video or AI analysis with any third party other than entities whose technology is necessary to administer the interview. Customers must not share recordings outside of authorised workflows. Deletion: Delete all video interviews and AI analysis data for Illinois applicants within 30 days of an applicant's written request. Retention Limit: Retain video interview recordings no longer than necessary, and not beyond 1 year from the date of the interview.  

Grapphen processes video interview data as a service provider. Customers are the covered "employer" under AIVIA and are solely responsible for compliance with consent and disclosure requirements. Grapphen will support deletion requests forwarded by Customers within 7 business days.

     ⚖️ 

## 12. EEOC & Fair Hiring Compliance

  

Grapphen is committed to supporting Customer compliance with federal civil rights and anti-discrimination laws enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), including:

  Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (race, colour, national origin, sex, religion) Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA — age 40+) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA — disability) Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) Equal Pay Act (EPA) Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA)  

### Platform Design for Non-Discrimination

  Grapphen AI models are trained to make recommendations based on job-relevant qualifications, not protected characteristics. We conduct regular bias testing and adverse impact analysis on our models. Our platform generates no fields that prompt collection of protected class data (race, religion, disability) unless the Customer explicitly enables EEOC-compliant voluntary self-identification for post-offer/post-hire data collection.  

### Customer Obligations

  Customers must not configure the Platform to screen, filter, or score candidates based on protected characteristics. Customers must maintain records sufficient to demonstrate equal employment opportunity compliance, including application records for the EEOC-mandated retention period. Customers bear all employer-of-record obligations under EEOC-enforced statutes.  

Grapphen is a technology provider, not an employer of the candidates processed through the Platform. All employment law obligations arising from hiring decisions rest with the Customer.

     🇺🇸 

## 13. OFCCP & Federal Contractor Obligations

   Applies to: Customers that are federal contractors or subcontractors subject to OFCCP regulations (41 CFR Parts 60-1 through 60-741).  

Grapphen provides features to support Customers who are federal contractors with compliance under Executive Order 11246, the Rehabilitation Act (Section 503), and the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA):

  Internet Applicant Tracking: Our Platform tracks and documents "Internet Applicants" consistent with 41 CFR Part 60-1.3 — including: expressions of interest, disposition codes, basic qualifications screening outcomes, and records of every individual who applied. Record Retention: Application and personnel selection records are retained for a minimum of 2 years (or 4 years for contractors with 150+ employees or contracts ≥$150,000). Voluntary Self-Identification: Optional fields for voluntary disclosure of veteran status (VEVRAA) and disability status (Section 503) are available, with proper separation from selection workflows. Adverse Impact Reporting: Data exports support calculation of selection rates by race, sex, and protected veteran/disability status for AAP purposes. Audit Support: Customers can export structured data packages to respond to OFCCP compliance evaluations.  

Customers who are federal contractors are solely responsible for preparing and implementing their Affirmative Action Plans (AAPs) and for ensuring their use of Grapphen does not violate OFCCP requirements. Grapphen recommends consulting a qualified employment attorney for AAP implementation.

     📋 

## 14. Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) Requirements

   Applies to: Customers using background check integrations or consumer reports in employment decisions involving US-based applicants.  

Grapphen integrates with third-party background check providers that may provide "consumer reports" as defined under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.

 

### Grapphen's Role

 

Grapphen is not a Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA) under FCRA. Our AI-generated candidate scores and assessments are not "consumer reports" because they are derived solely from data provided by the candidate or the Customer. Grapphen acts as a technology conduit when integrating third-party CRA services.

 

### Customer Obligations as FCRA "Users"

  Permissible Purpose: Only obtain consumer reports for purposes permissible under FCRA § 604 (e.g., employment screening). Standalone Disclosure: Before procuring a consumer report, provide the applicant with a clear, standalone written disclosure that a report may be obtained, and obtain written authorisation. Pre-Adverse Action: Before taking any adverse action (e.g., not hiring, withdrawing an offer) based on a consumer report, provide the individual with: (a) a copy of the report, and (b) a copy of the Summary of Rights under FCRA. Allow a reasonable period (at least 5 business days is recommended) for the individual to dispute the information. Adverse Action Notice: After taking adverse action, provide the individual with an adverse action notice as required under FCRA § 615. Dispute Handling: Direct candidates to the applicable CRA for disputes regarding the accuracy or completeness of information in a consumer report. Record Keeping: Maintain records of consumer report use and related employment decisions for at least 5 years.  

Customers bear all FCRA compliance obligations as "users" of consumer reports. Grapphen is not responsible for Customers' FCRA compliance and recommends consulting legal counsel before implementing background check processes.

     ♿ 

## 15. ADA & Web Accessibility

  

### Grapphen's Accessibility Commitments

  Our website and Platform target WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance. We conduct periodic accessibility audits and remediation. We accept and act on accessibility feedback and accommodation requests promptly. New features are subject to accessibility review before deployment.  

### Customer Obligations

  Customers must ensure that their use of Grapphen-powered job application portals does not create accessibility barriers for applicants with disabilities protected under the ADA or equivalent state/local laws. Customers who customise the candidate-facing application portal are responsible for maintaining accessibility of custom content. Customers must not use methods of candidate assessment that unlawfully screen out qualified individuals with disabilities. Customers must provide reasonable accommodations in the application process, including alternative formats and processes, upon request.  

To report an accessibility issue with our website or Platform, contact hello@grapphen.com.

     📧

Customers must ensure they have obtained required consents before sending marketing or unsolicited commercial messages to candidates. Customers must not use Grapphen to send spam, harassing, discriminatory, or unlawful messages. Customers must honour opt-out / unsubscribe requests in their messaging campaigns within the statutory timeframe. Grapphen reserves the right to suspend messaging features for any Customer whose conduct risks the deliverability or reputation of our platform.      🗄️
