Global Version 5 – India Version 1 – 05April2022 

These supplemental terms and conditions (“Supplement”) are part of an agreement for certain Sinch India services (“Agreement”) between Sinch India and Customer and apply solely to the Customer’s right to pass-on or distribute or otherwise allow any third party to access any Sinch India services, defined below (“Services”). 

Capitalized terms are defined in the Glossary below. Capitalized terms not defined in this Supplement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the General Terms and Conditions for Sinch India Services (“GTC”). 

General 

The Customer may provide access to the Services to its Service Users, provided that: 

  1. as between Sinch India and the Customer, use of the Services by Service Users and any of their acts and omissions are deemed to be the Customer’s use of the Services and the Customer’s acts and omissions; 
  2. the Customer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible to ensure that each Service User accepts and agrees to use the Services pursuant to the same terms and conditions as set out in the Agreement; 
  3. no Service User shall be a third party beneficiary to the Agreement; 
  4. as between Sinch India and the Customer, Customer Data shall be deemed to belong to the Customer and no other party; 
  5. each Service User accepts and complies with all third party policies or terms applicable for the use of the Services, such confirmation to be provided by each respective Service User prior to its use of the Services; and 
  6. the Customer shall not (and shall ensure that any Service User shall not) use Sinch India or Sinch India Affiliate trademarks, tradenames or branding or make any representations with respect to the Services that are inconsistent with any express Sinch India representations in the Agreement. 

For the purposes of this Supplement, a “Service User” means any user of the Services, whether or not the Customer has a contractual relationship with such user, including (without limitation) any of the Customer’s customers (or any other third Parties to whom the Services are subsequently resold or made available) or any of the Customer’s Affiliates, suppliers, employees, contractors, agents. 

The Customer shall remain fully liable to Sinch India for any use of the Services by Service Users (whose acts and omissions shall be considered to be the Customer’s acts and omissions). Sinch India will provide support, when and if provided, only to the Customer and not to Service Users. Customer is fully responsible for any support and any and all communication towards the Service Users. 

Further, Customer shall enter into written agreement with each “Client” (meaning the party that purchases the services through the Customer) containing data protection obligations to the extent applicable to the nature of the Services provided by Customer and which allows the Customer to conclude contracts of this nature on behalf of the Client and Customer (together to be referred to as Data Controller). Further, the Customer will either (i) inform Sinch India about the new Client and that it acts on behalf of the Client; or (ii) ensure that the clients of the Customer conclude their own Data Protection Agreement with Sinch India before the processing of personal data commences. 

WhatsApp – Terms of Service 

Sinch India will provide Customer with a production messaging capability, enabling business messaging via the WhatsApp platform through the API and a business profile, both in the name of the Customer or a brand owned by Customer. 

For avoidance of any doubt, Sinch India makes no representations as to where the Customer’s Data is being processed when using the Services. 

Any such Customer/client user who wishes to engage an ISV is required to comply with Section 2.2 of the Client Terms, which requires, among other things, such ISV to execute and deliver Schedule 1 to the Client Terms. 

To the extent Customer intends to use the Services solely for its internal business purposes, Customer shall, as a condition to using the Services, execute and deliver the WhatsApp Client Terms attached hereto as Exhibit C, and abide by all of such terms and the remaining WhatsApp T&C in connection with its use of the Services. Customer may not resell the Services or allow third parties to integrate with, access or use the Services (including messages) or use WhatsApp’s names or trademarks to promote Customer’s business or in any other way unless approved in writing by Sinch India and WhatsApp. Without limiting the foregoing, Customer may not engage any ISV to perform services on its behalf in connection with Customer’s use of the Services; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent ISVs from accessing Customer’s messages after Customer receives such messages (i.e., Customer, not Sinch India or ISV, passes the messages to such third party business). 

In addition to the termination rights set forth in the Agreement, Sinch India reserves the right to terminate this Supplement with or without cause upon thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to Customer, and in the event of such termination, the provisions of the Agreement, this Supplement and the WhatsApp T&C shall survive any such termination. 

In addition to what is stated in any relevant Supplement, the Customer agrees to accept and comply with the terms and conditions set out in the WhatsApp ISV Terms (if applicable) attached hereto as Exhibit B and WhatsApp Client Terms attached hereto as Exhibit C (together with any WhatsApp terms in the Order Form, the “WhatsApp T&Cs”). The Customer is required to execute and deliver the WhatsApp ISV Terms attached hereto as Exhibit B prior to WhatsApp onboarding. 

To the extent WhatsApp approves the resale of the Services (in its sole discretion), as a condition for any reselling of the Services, Customer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible to ensure that each Service User (i) accepts and agrees to use the Services pursuant to the terms and conditions set out in the Agreement, (ii) accepts and complies with WhatsApp Business Program Addendum Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit A, such confirmation to be provided by each respective Service User prior to its use of the Services and (iii) executes and delivers to Sinch India, for delivery to WhatsApp, the WhatsApp Client Terms attached hereto as Exhibit C. 

WhatsApp Consent (ISVs/Other than End clients) and Right to Terminate 

Customer agrees that Customer may not resell the Services or allow third parties to integrate with, access or use the Services (including messages) or use WhatsApp’s names or trademarks to promote Customer’s business or in any other way unless approved in writing by Sinch India and WhatsApp. To the extent Customer intends to use the Services other than for Customer’s own internal business purposes (i.e., Customer is not the end client of the Services), Sinch India’s obligation to provide the Services and Customer’s obligation to pay the Fees for the Service are conditioned upon WhatsApp’s approval of Customer’s use of the Services, which may be granted or withheld in WhatsApp’s sole discretion. Before providing the Services, Sinch India shall notify WhatsApp in writing (in the format and medium as directed by WhatsApp) of the Customer’s name, address and the nature of the services Customer may provide in connection with the proposed integration with the Customer. Customer shall be required to satisfy certain Compliance Checks which WhatsApp may require in its sole discretion, as well as any other requirements which Facebook or WhatsApp may reasonably request. Additionally, Customer shall, as a condition to using the Services, execute and deliver to execute the ISV Terms attached hereto as Exhibit B, and shall abide by all of such terms and the remaining WhatsApp T&C in connection with its use of the Services. Customer further acknowledges and agrees that Sinch India shall promptly notify all end client Service Users that Customer is providing the Services to such Service Users, which notice shall include Customer’s name, address, and the nature of the services Customer is providing. 

If Customer does not satisfy the requirements set forth herein, to the extent Customer has access to the Services, Sinch India shall Off-board Customer from the Services, subject to a wind-down period not to exceed thirty (30) days solely to the extent required to ensure that applicable end client Service users are not adversely affected by the Off-boarding, and provided such wind-down period is not prohibited by applicable laws. In connection with such Off-boarding, Sinch India shall assist Customer in migrating any end client Service Users to alternative providers of the Services or to enable such Service Users to assume control of the Services themselves, as directed by such Service Users, subject to WhatsApp’s consent. 

In addition, Sinch India reserves the right to immediately Offboard Customer’s use of the Services upon written notice when Sinch India receives notice from Facebook or WhatsApp requiring Sinch India to Offboard the Customer. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Facebook or WhatsApp may provide such notice in their sole discretion. The foregoing shall be subject to a wind-down period not to exceed thirty (30) days solely to the extent required to ensure that applicable end client Service Users are not adversely affected by the Off-boarding, and provided such wind-down period is not prohibited by applicable laws. 

In addition to the termination rights set forth in the Agreement, Sinch India reserves the right to terminate this Supplement with or without cause upon thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to Customer. In the event of such termination, the provisions of the Agreement and the WhatsApp T&C shall survive any such termination.
