ANNEXURE A - DETAILS OF THE SOFTWARE

  1. Software Details: Privado Software analyzes source code, websites, and mobile applications to discover personal-data, detect data-sharing to third parties, and verify adherence to global privacy regulations. The platform is offered in three standalone modules—each available under an independent subscription:
    • Privado Code Scanning Platform: Static analysis of Customer source code to identify personal-data elements, data flows, and third-party integrations; enables privacy-by-design enforcement and automatic issue creation.
    • Privado Web Auditor: Automated scanning of live websites to detect consent-banner behaviour, third-party calls, cookie placement, GPP/TCF/TAG compliance, etc.
    • Privado App Auditor: Dynamic analysis of Android and iOS apps to surface SDK usage, network traffic, permission abuse, and privacy-signal handling.
  2. Repository: A repository is where the source code is maintained and committed by Customer’s developers.
  3. Developers: Privado counts developers (also referred to as “software engineers”) as the number of users who have made one or more commits to a repository which has been scanned and monitored by Privado in the last 90 days. A subscription license for the Privado platform (not including the Dynamic Mobile App & Website Scanning Modules) will be priced based on the number of developers as per the License Costs section below.
  4. Website: A Website means each unique URL entered by the Customer into the Privado dashboard for monitoring. Each such entry, regardless of domain or subdomain structure, is treated as a separate Website for pricing and service coverage purposes
  5. App: An App means an application developed for either Android or iOS platforms that is registered for monitoring. Each Android or iOS version of an application is treated as a separate Mobile App for pricing and service coverage purposes.
  6. Geography: The jurisdiction (e.g., California, Germany, Singapore) from which a Scan is executed, as selected by the Customer while configuring a scan.
  7. Scan: Scan means one (1) execution of the Privado Web Auditor, initiated by Customer, that tests a single Website from a single Geography. Each execution is counted separately; accordingly — (a) running the same Website from multiple Geographies, or (b) running multiple Websites from the same Geography — constitutes multiple Scans.
  8. Test: A recorded user-journey created by Customer in the Privado platform for the purpose of exercising an App during a Scan. A Test is tied to a single Geography and may represent journeys such as No Action, Reject All, Accept All, Login, Checkout, etc.
  9. Initial Subscription Term: 12 months from the Effective Date
