Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy.

What is a Data Processing Agreement (DPA)?
A DPA is a contract between your organization and a vendor that handles your data on your behalf. It specifies how the vendor can use the data, security requirements, breach notification obligations, and data deletion requirements at contract end.
Does this cover AI vendors specifically?
Yes. The policy includes a dedicated SaaS and AI vendor onboarding section that applies additional scrutiny to vendors using AI - covering data input restrictions and model training prohibitions.
What does cyber insurance require for vendor management?
Underwriters increasingly ask whether you have a formal vendor risk program, whether you require DPAs with data-handling vendors, and whether you have offboarding procedures to revoke vendor access. This policy addresses all three.
What format does it come in?
Editable Microsoft Word (.docx). Compatible with Google Docs and LibreOffice.
