Data Processing Addendum (DPA)

March 20, 2026

This Data Processing Addendum ("DPA") is incorporated into the agreement between Customer and Vilulia LLC ("Vilulia") governing the Services. This DPA applies to Personal Data processed by Vilulia on behalf of Customer in connection with the Services. If there is a conflict between this DPA and the Terms of Service or an Order Form, this DPA governs with respect to data protection matters.


1. Definitions

"Personal Data" means information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. "Processing" means any operation performed on Personal Data. "Controller" and "Processor" have the meanings given under applicable data protection law (e.g., GDPR).

2. Roles

Customer is the Controller of Personal Data and Vilulia is the Processor, to the extent Vilulia processes Personal Data on behalf of Customer. Vilulia may act as a Controller for account administration, billing, security, and marketing communications to Customer contacts.

3. Scope of Processing

3.1 Subject Matter and Duration

The subject matter is the provision of the Services. Processing continues for the term of the Services and as necessary to meet legal and operational requirements.

3.2 Nature and Purpose

Processing includes hosting, storing, transmitting, analyzing, and otherwise processing Personal Data as necessary to provide, secure, and support the Services, including AI-enabled functionality requested by Customer.

3.3 Categories of Data and Data Subjects

  • Data Subjects: Customer's authorized users; parties to disputes; claimants; witnesses; and other individuals whose data Customer submits.
  • Personal Data: identifiers, contact information, communications, documents, case data, and related metadata as submitted by Customer.
  • Sensitive Data: Customer controls whether to submit sensitive data; where submitted, it is processed solely to provide Services.

4. Customer Instructions

Vilulia will process Personal Data only on documented instructions from Customer, including as necessary to provide the Services. Customer instructs Vilulia to process Personal Data as required to provide the Services, maintain security, and comply with law. Customer is responsible for ensuring it has a lawful basis for processing and sharing Personal Data with Vilulia.

5. Confidentiality

Vilulia will ensure that persons authorized to process Personal Data are subject to confidentiality obligations. Vilulia employees and contractors with access to Personal Data are bound by confidentiality obligations and receive training on data protection requirements.

6. Security Measures

Vilulia will implement appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.

6.1 Minimum Measures (Illustrative)

  • Encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256 where supported and configured).
  • Access controls, role-based authorization, and multi-factor authentication options.
  • Logging and monitoring (including audit logging for sensitive workflows).
  • Secure software development practices and vulnerability management.
  • Backup and disaster recovery practices.
  • Regular review and testing of security measures.

7. Subprocessors

Customer authorizes Vilulia to use the subprocessors listed below to process Personal Data for the Services. Vilulia will impose data protection obligations on subprocessors that are at least as protective as this DPA.

Vilulia will provide Customer with reasonable advance notice of any material change to this subprocessor list (such as the addition of a new subprocessor that will access Personal Data), through in-product notice or email. Where required by applicable law, Customer may object to a new subprocessor on reasonable grounds related to data protection by providing written notice within thirty (30) days of the update; the parties will work in good faith to resolve the objection.

7.1 Approved Subprocessors

Last updated: March 20, 2026

Subprocessor Purpose Location
Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud infrastructure, hosting, storage, database, compute, and security services (including RDS, ECS, S3, ElastiCache, Cognito, Bedrock, CloudFront, KMS, GuardDuty) United States (us-east-1)
Stripe Payment processing, subscription billing, and Stripe Connect for settlement payments United States
Postmark (ActiveCampaign) Transactional email delivery (notifications, account communications) United States
Twilio SMS notifications (optional add-on) United States
Daily.co Video conferencing integration (optional add-on) United States
DocuSign Electronic signature services for agreements and awards United States
Sentry Error monitoring and diagnostics United States
AWS Bedrock / OpenAI / Google / xAI AI model inference for AI-enabled features (used only to process requests initiated by authorized users; Customer Content is not used for model training) United States

Integrations listed as optional add-ons (Twilio, Daily.co, DocuSign) are only engaged when the relevant feature is enabled by Customer. Third-party integrations configured directly by Customer (such as Google Calendar, Outlook, Salesforce, Slack, or QuickBooks) are not Vilulia subprocessors; Customer's agreement with those providers governs their data handling.

8. Assistance to Customer

Taking into account the nature of processing, Vilulia will provide reasonable assistance to Customer to respond to requests from data subjects and to meet obligations under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR), to the extent required and reasonably feasible. Vilulia will respond to reasonable assistance requests within thirty (30) days of receipt.

9. Personal Data Breach

Vilulia will notify Customer without undue delay — and in no event later than 72 hours — after becoming aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Personal Data processed under this DPA. Notification will include, to the extent known: the nature of the breach, the categories and approximate number of data subjects and records affected, the likely consequences, and the measures taken or proposed to address the breach. Vilulia will provide additional information reasonably requested by Customer to support compliance with breach notification obligations.

10. Data Return and Deletion

Upon termination of the Services, Vilulia will delete or return Personal Data in accordance with the Services' capabilities and Customer's contractual terms, unless retention is required by law. Backup deletion follows normal retention cycles. Upon request, Vilulia will confirm in writing that deletion has been completed.

11. International Transfers; SCCs

If Personal Data is transferred from the EEA/UK/Switzerland to a country not recognized as providing adequate protection, the parties will rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms. Where applicable, the parties incorporate by reference the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914) as follows: Module Two (Controller to Processor), with Customer as "data exporter" and Vilulia as "data importer." For UK transfers, the parties will use the UK Addendum to the EU SCCs or another valid UK transfer mechanism as applicable.

If the SCCs apply, the parties will complete the relevant details (for example: Annex I/II information and the competent supervisory authority) in an Order Form or other written addendum as needed.

12. Audit

Vilulia will make available information reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with this DPA and will allow audits as required by law and subject to reasonable confidentiality, security, and scheduling limitations. Vilulia may satisfy audit requests via third-party reports (e.g., SOC 2) where appropriate. Audit requests must be submitted in writing with reasonable advance notice, and any audit will be conducted at Customer's expense unless a material breach by Vilulia is confirmed.

13. AI Training Exclusions

Vilulia does not use Customer Content to train AI models. Customer Content is processed by AI features solely to deliver those features to Customer. It is never shared with AI providers for training, fine-tuning, or evaluation of general-purpose models.

Aggregated and de-identified metrics (such as latency, error rates, and feature usage statistics that cannot be linked to a specific customer or case) may be used for platform performance and security improvement.

14. Governing Law

This DPA is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, to the extent not superseded by applicable data protection law.
