CCPA Data Processing Addendum
This CCPA Addendum (“Addendum”) is entered into pursuant to the Master Service Agreement and any agreements incorporating it (jointly referred to as the “Agreement”) between the Customer, on behalf of itself and its affiliates (“Customer”), and SORXI, LLC, Sheridan WY 82801 (“Vendor”). This Addendum is effective as of April 6, 2025, and governs the processing of Personal Information by Vendor on behalf of Customer in compliance with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (California Civil Code §§ 1798.100 to 1798.199), including its implementing regulations, as amended or superseded from time to time (collectively, the “CCPA”).
This Addendum prevails over any conflicting terms of the Agreement but does not otherwise modify the Agreement.

Civ. Code § 1798.140(e).
2.2. Customer is a Business and appoints Vendor as its Service Provider under the CCPA to process Personal Information on its behalf.

5. End User Rights
5.1. Vendor shall provide reasonable assistance to Customer in responding to verified Consumer rights requests, including requests to access, delete, or opt-out.
5.2. Upon Customer’s direction and within no more than 30 days of receipt, Vendor shall delete the applicable Personal Information unless an exception under Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105(d) applies. If such an exception applies, Vendor shall notify Customer of the exception and limit any further use of the retained information solely as permitted by law.
6. Deidentified Information
If either Party shares Deidentified Information, the receiving Party shall:
- (i) implement technical safeguards to prevent reidentification;

- (iv) make no attempt to reidentify any individual.
7. Mergers, Sales, or Asset Transfers
In the event either Party transfers Personal Information as part of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or similar transaction, the recipient must use and disclose the information in accordance with applicable law. If the new entity materially changes how it uses or shares such information, it must provide prior notice to Consumers, as required by law.
8. As Required by Law
Vendor may disclose Personal Information to law enforcement or other authorities if it reasonably and in good faith believes such disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law.
9. Indemnification
To the extent that Vendor processes Personal Information strictly as directed by Customer, Customer shall be solely liable and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Vendor for any claims, damages, or reasonable costs (including attorneys’ fees and interest) arising from such processing.
10. Security
Vendor represents and warrants that it will implement and maintain reasonable security procedures appropriate to the nature of the Personal Information, to protect against unauthorized access, use, destruction, modification, or disclosure.
11. Return or Destruction of Personal Information
Upon termination or expiration of the Agreement, Vendor shall promptly return or securely delete all Personal Information in its possession unless retention is required by applicable law.
12. No Sale of Personal Information
The Parties agree that the disclosure of Personal Information under the Agreement does not constitute a “sale” as defined in the CCPA. No monetary or other valuable consideration is exchanged for Personal Information.
13. Governing Law
This Addendum shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to conflict of law principles.
