expense, and this right shall be exercised with reasonable prior notice, in such a
manner as not to substantially interfere with the Client’s normal conduct of
business;
5.3.5 If any audit referred to in clause 5.3.4 reveals that any password has been

days’ written notice to Pharmpex, such notice to expire no later than the end of the

next Renewal Period.
8. PAYMENT SERVICES THROUGH SEMBLE
8.1 The Semble Website integrates with third-party payment processor, Stripe, to
permit certain payment processing functionalities as part of our Services. We refer
to these payment services and functionalities as integrated with Stripe as “Semble
Pay.” Whether the Client receives payment services through Semble Pay, or directly
with Stripe, for the purposes of the Agreement these functions are referred to as
“Payment Services.” Payment Services are provided by Stripe and the Client’s use of
Payment Services will be subject to Stripe’s separate Stripe Connected Account
Agreement, available here. The Stripe Connected Account Agreement and Stripe’s
Terms of Service shall be referred to collectively as the “Stripe Services Agreement.”
8.2 If the Client receives Payment Services through the Semble Website, then in
addition to being subject to these Terms, the Client also accepts and agrees to be
bound by the Stripe Services Agreement. As a condition to the Client’s receipt of
Payment Services and enabling this Service, the Client agrees to provide Semble with
complete and accurate information about its business and the Client expressly
authorises Semble to share this information with Stripe, including, as applicable, any
transaction-related information, for the Client’s receipt and use of Payment
Services.
8.3 Semble Pay Fees are as set out here or as described in the Client’s Agreement /
Order Form. All other charges related to a Client’s Semble Pay account (including,
without limitation, fees for chargebacks, collection fees, convenience fees, or
charges incidental to the collection of delinquent accounts) will be charged at cost.
During the Term of the Agreement, if Stripe increases its payment processing fees on
transactions run at your business location (which would normally be the result of
increased fees charged by the major card brand networks), Semble shall have the
right to pass along these fee increases to the Client and adjust Fees for Payment
Services accordingly. In this instance, Semble will use reasonable efforts to notify
Client in writing (email will be sufficient) at least 14 days in advance of such fee
increases taking effect.
8.4 By entering into an Agreement, the Client authorise and expressly permits
Semble to collect any Fees (including Fees related to Payment Services) or other
amounts owed to Semble under the Agreement directly from the funds payable to
the Client as the result of its receipt of Payment Services. If the amount of funds
payable to the Client after payment settlement is insufficient to cover Semble’s Fees
or other amounts owed to Semble under the Agreement, then the Client authorises
Semble to make a charge or debit from the Client’s bank account or credit card
associated with the account, authorises Semble to send instructions to the fina ncial
institution that issued the Client’s card to take payment from your bank account in
accordance with these Terms and/or set off the Fees from any monies Semble owe
the Client or, deduct Fees from another business location where the Client receives
Payment Services through the Platform. This authorisation will remain in full force
and effect irrespective of expiry or termination of the Agreement and shall remain in
place until all Fees are settled.
8.5 All merchants or sub-merchants receiving Payment Services must submit to risk
underwriting prior to receiving Payment Services. As a condition of the Client’s
receipt of Payment Services, the Client consents to and agrees to cooperate with
Semble or Stripe’s standard underwriting process as applicable, including, without
limitation, providing Semble with documentation or information that Semble
reasonably requests. Semble may, as circumstances dictate, require an owner or
principal associated with the Client to sign a personal guarantee for receipt of
Payment Services. The Client consents to receiving communications from Semble, or
our authorised agent for Payment Services, relating to any matter related to its
Payment Services account, including, without limitation, emails or calls seeking to
collect on a delinquent account.
8.6 As a condition of the Client’s receipt of Payment Services, the Client consents and
agrees the following:
8.6.1 To provide to Pharmplex, upon request, any reasonably requested information
or documentation related to the provision of Payment Services;
8.6.2 Semble reserves the right to investigate any claims of non-delivery made by
your Users and the Client agrees to promptly provide such information as required to
assist;
8.6.3 Client acknowledges and agrees that Semble, at its sole discretion, has the right
to maintain a minimum account balance on the Client’s Semble Pay account; and
8.6.4 Client consents that Users accounts can be suspended and/or switched to
manual pay out at the sole discretion of Semble.
8.7 Client must pay, or ensure that Semble is able to collect, Fees and other amounts
owed by Client under this Agreement when due. Pharmplex may deduct, recoup or
setoff Fees and other amounts the Client owes under this Agreement, or under any
other agreements it has with Semble, from Client’s Semble Pay balance, or invoice
Client for those amounts. If Client fails to pay invoiced amounts when due, if Client’s
Semble Pay account balance is negative or does not contain funds sufficient to pay
amounts that Client owes under this Agreement, or under any other agreement with
Semble, or if Semble is unable to collect amounts due from the Client’s Semble Pay
balance, then Semble may, to the extent legally permitted, deduct, recoup or setoff
those amounts from: (a) if established and applicable, each minimum account
balance; (b) funds payable by Semble to Client or Client’s Affiliate; (c) if established,
each Affiliate’s minimum account balance; (d) each Client bank account; and (e) the
Stripe account balance of each Stripe account that Semble determines, acting
reasonably, is associated with Client or Client’s Affiliate. If the currency of the
amount being deducted is different from the currency of the amount Client owes,
Semble may deduct, recoup or setoff an amount equal to the amount owed (using
Stripe’s currency conversion rate) together with any fees Semble incurs in making the
conversion.
9. AVAILABILITY
9.1 The Client acknowledges and agrees that the Service may occasionally be unavailable
during periods of planned or unscheduled maintenance or in order to put in place any
changes, modifications or upgrades to the Service, and that such unavailability will not count
towards the availability calculation in this clause.
9.2 The Client further agrees that to the extent that access to the Service will not be
affected or restricted, Pharmplex may at any time perform such maintenance or put
in place any changes, modifications or upgrades to the Service. In the event that it is
anticipated that access to the Service may be affected or restricted, Pharmplex will
use reasonable endeavours to provide reasonable notice to the Client and will
further use reasonable endeavours to perform such maintenance or put in place any
changes, modifications or upgrades to the Service outside of normal business hours,
in each case where possible.
9.3 The Client further acknowledges and agrees that the Service may occasionally be
unavailable in the event that a third-party infrastructure provider suffers an
interruption in its own service. In such event, Pharmplex will use reasonable
endeavours to work with such third party in order to minimise such interruption. For
the avoidance of doubt, Pharmplex shall not be responsible for any disruption to the
Service in such event. Pharmplex does not warrant that the Service will be error-free
or free from any virus or vulnerability.
9.4 The aforementioned (9.1, 9.2,9.3) will also apply for the use of Semble through
the Pharmplex affiliation.
10. TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND TRAINING
10.1 In the event of any technical problems with the Service and/or Website, the
Client shall use all reasonable endeavours to investigate and diagnose the issue
before contacting Pharmplex.
10.2 After making such investigations, to the extent that the Client still requires
technical assistance, the Client shall email Pharmplex’s client support team
cp@worldtravelclinic.co.uk. Pharmplex shall provide such support during Pharmplex
normal working business days and hours.
10.3 For the avoidance of doubt, technical support provided in accordance with this
clause shall not include the diagnosis and/or rectification of any fault or malfunction
in the Website or Service arising out of or in connection with or following:
10.3.1 The failure by the Client to implement recommendations in respect of or
solutions to faults previously advised by Pharmplex;
10.3.2 Any breach by the Client of any of its obligations under these Terms or any
other contract with Pharmplex relating to the Website and/or Service;

not in accordance with these Terms; or

16.2 Pharmplex may use the Client Data only for the purpose of providing the
Services to the Client and its Users, and/or monitoring the Client’s or any User’s
compliance with this Agreement and/or use of the Service. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent Pharmplex from
generating and using aggregated and anonymised Client Data for the purposes or
providing, measuring, improving and marketing the Services (such generated data

17.1 The Parties will comply with all applicable requirements of the Applicable Data
Protection Laws. This clause is in addition to, and does not relieve, remove or
replace, a Party’s obligations under the Data Protection Legislation.
17.2 The Parties acknowledge that, for the purposes of the Data Protection
Legislation, the Client is the controller of Personal Data and Pharmplex is the
processor of personal data (“control”, “controller”, “process”, “processor”, “SubProcessor”, “Data Subject”, “Personal Data”, “Personal Data Breach”, “Special
Category Personal Data” and derived and inflected word forms have the meanings as
defined in UK GDPR).
17.3 Pharmplex processes Personal Data of the Client and Client’s customers (being
medical patients) and such Personal Data includes the Data Subjects’ contact details,
financial data, medical records; and therefore Special Category Personal Data. This
processing is carried out to enable the Client to use the Services (principally being a
patient healthcare and practice management platform).
17.4 Without prejudice to the generality of clause 17.1, the Client will ensure that it
has all necessary appropriate consents and notices in place to enable lawful transfer
of the Personal Data to Pharmplex for the duration and purposes of these Terms and
the provision of the Services by Pharmplex. Further, Pharmplex shall, in relation to
any Personal Data processed in connection with the performance by Pharmplex of
the Services:
17.4.1 process that Client Personal Data only on the documented instructions of the
Client, which shall be to process the Client Personal Data for the purpose set out in
clause 17.5.3, unless Pharmplex is required by Applicable Laws to otherwise process
that Client Personal Data. Where Pharmplex is relying on Applicable Laws as the basis
for processing Client Processor Data, Pharmplex shall notify the Client of this before
performing the processing required by the Applicable Laws unless those Applicable
Laws prohibit Pharmplex from so notifying the Client on important grounds of public
interest. Pharmplex shall inform the Client if, in the opinion of Pharmplex, the
instructions of the Client infringe Applicable Data Protection Legislation.
17.4.2 Ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures
to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of Personal Data and against
accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, Personal Data, appropriate to the
harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental
loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected, having
regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any
measures (those measures may include, where appropriate, pseudonymising and
encrypting Personal Data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and
resilience of its systems and services, ensuring that availability of and access to
Personal Data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly
assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the technical and organisational
measures adopted by it);
17.4.3 Ensure that all personnel who have access to and/or process Personal Data are
obliged to keep the Personal Data confidential;
17.4.4 Assist the Client, at the Client’s cost, in responding to any request from a Data
Subject and in ensuring compliance with its obligations under the Data Protection
Legislation with respect to security, breach notifications, impact assessments and
consultations with supervisory authorities or regulators;
17.4.5 Notify the Client without undue delay on becoming aware of a Personal Data
Breach;
17.4.6 At the written direction of the Client, delete or return Personal Data and
copies thereof to the Client on termination of the Services unless required by
Applicable Laws to store the Personal Data; and
17.4.7 Maintain complete and accurate records and information to demonstrate its
compliance with this clause and allow for audits (in order to establish compliance
with this clause only) by the Client or the Client’s designated auditor. In carrying out
any audit in accordance with this clause, the Client shall use reasonable endeavours
to avoid (and to ensure that any designated auditor of the Client shall avoid) causing
any damage or disruption to Pharmplex during the audit.
17.5 The Client approves:
17.5.1 Pharmplex transferring Personal Data outside of the UK;
17.5.2 Pharmplex appointing processors to process the Client Personal Data,
including but not limited to for the purposes of data storage, hosting and customer
service support. Pharmplex confirms that it has entered, or (as the case may be) will
enter, into written agreements with each processor incorporating terms which are
similar to those set out in this clause 17. As between the Client and Pharmplex,
Pharmplex shall remain fully liable for all acts or omissions of any processor
appointed by it pursuant to this clause 17.5 and shall inform the Client of any
intended changes concerning the addition or replacement of processors, thereby
giving the Client 14 calendar days to object to such changes (provided the objection
is due to an actual or likely breach of Applicable Data Protection Law).The Client shall
indemnify Pharmplex for any losses, damages, costs (including legal fees) and
expenses suffered by Pharmplex in accommodating the objection; and
17.5.3 The transfer of Client Personal Data outside of the United Kingdom, as
required for the purpose of providing the Service of a healthcare management
system (“Purpose”), provided that Pharmplex shall ensure that all such transfers are
effected in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Laws. For these purposes, the
Client shall promptly comply with any reasonable request of Pharmplex, including
any request to enter into standard data protection clauses adopted by the EU
Commission from time to time (where the EU GDPR applies to the transfer) or
adopted by the UK Information Commissioner from time to time (where the UK GDPR
applies to the transfer).
17.6 If an adequate protection measure for the international transfer of Personal
Data is required under the Data Protection Legislation as contemplated by clause
17.5.3 (and has not otherwise been agreed by the Parties), the Model Contract
Clauses shall be incorporated into these Terms as if they had been set out in full. The
template elements of the Model Contract Clauses are set out in the Schedule.
17.7 If Pharmplex shall provide Client with any GP Data, this is data which is publicly
available and derives from third parties, Pharmplex shall not be held responsible for

subjects for processing of such data.

obligations. The time for performance of such obligations shall be extended
