      2. if any transfer of Licensee Personal Data requires the execution of the Standard Contractual Clauses in circumstances where Licensee Personal Data is being transferred to a third country (to include the UK) in order to comply with the Data Protection Legislation, the parties will complete all relevant details in and execute the Standard Contractual Clauses, and will take all other actions required to legitimise the transfer of the Licensee Personal Data;

Where the Licensor appoints a third party processor which requires the execution of the Standard Contractual Clauses (in circumstances where Licensee Personal Data is being transferred to a third country, to include the UK) in order to comply with the Data Protection Legislation, the Licensor confirms that it will enter into the Standard Contractual Clauses with the third party processor and will make the executed Standard Contractual Clauses available to the Licensee on request.
