- Deletion or Return of Data
Following termination of the Agreement, Customer shall have sixty (60) days to export its Data from the Software and after such time has passed MacroGPT may destroy all Data in its possession or control. This requirement shall not apply to the extent that:

(ii) Data is archived on MacroGPT ‘s back-up and support systems, provided that MacroGPT shall continue to protect such Data in accordance with its obligations herein. - Review & Audit
MacroGPT shall deal promptly and adequately with any enquiries from the Customer about the processing of Data in accordance with this Data Processing Addendum and make available all information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with its obligations in this Data Processing Addendum for Customer’s review (“Review”).

Where required by a competent supervisory authority, the Parties shall make available any information provided pursuant to a Review or Audit to such supervisory authority. - Transparency Reports
MacroGPT will not disclose or provide access to any Data to any public authorities unless required by law. Where the Data impacted by the request is governed by EU Data Protection Law, MacroGPT commits to (i) reviewing the legality of the public authority’s data requests and to challenging them where lawful and appropriate; and (il) where the Legal Request is incompatible with Art. 46 of the GDPR, to inform the public authority of the same.
