This Data Processing Agreement ("DPA") forms part of the Zynthoro Terms of Service between you ("Controller") and Casa Haya International BV (KvK 99196581, "Processor", "Zynthoro"), a private limited company registered in the Netherlands. It reflects the parties' obligations under Article 28 GDPR. All Customer Data is hosted on EU-based infrastructure, primarily in the Republic of Ireland (eu-west).
1.Subject matter & duration
Zynthoro processes personal data on behalf of the Controller solely to provide the Zynthoro platform and the four AI Assistants. The DPA remains in force for as long as Zynthoro processes such data.
2.Nature & purpose of processing
- Hosting Controller's workspace data (HR records, customers, invoices, inventory, etc.).
- Running AI Assistants on Controller's prompts and data.
- Sending transactional emails on behalf of Controller (e.g. team invites).
- Generating analytics and dashboards visible only to Controller.
3.Categories of data subjects & data
- Data subjects: Controller's employees, customers, suppliers, leads, end-users.
- Categories: identifiers, contact info, employment data, financial data, communications, AI prompt content.
- Special categories (Art. 9): Controller decides whether to upload such data. Where uploaded (e.g. HR sick-leave notes), Zynthoro applies the same security controls.
4.Processor obligations
- Process personal data only on documented instructions from the Controller.
- Ensure persons authorised to process data are bound by confidentiality.
- Implement appropriate technical and organisational measures (Annex A).
- Engage sub-processors only under written contracts with equivalent obligations.
- Assist the Controller in responding to data-subject requests within statutory deadlines.
- Notify the Controller of any personal data breach without undue delay and at the latest within 72 hours.
- On termination, delete or return all personal data within 90 days, unless EU/NL law requires retention.
5.Sub-processors (EU hosting)
All Customer Data is hosted on EU-based infrastructure, primarily in the Republic of Ireland (eu-west). Zynthoro uses the following sub-processors (versioned list available on request):
- Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. (Ireland, EU) — payments.

- Bcrypt password hashing (cost 12) and optional 2FA (TOTP).
- Role-based access control with least-privilege defaults.

7.International transfers
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA (e.g. to Anthropic or Google in the US), Zynthoro relies on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (Module 3, 2021) and applies supplementary measures including end-to-end encryption and zero-retention AI inference contracts.
8.Audits
On request, Zynthoro will provide an annual SOC 2 Type II report (or equivalent) once available, and respond to reasonable written audit questionnaires within 30 days. On-site audits may be conducted at Controller's cost once per year with 60 days' notice.
9.Liability & termination
Each party's liability under this DPA is subject to the limits in the main Terms of Service. The DPA terminates automatically with the main Terms.
