Answer:
The responsibilities of data controllers are set out in Art. 28 - "Processors" of the EU GDPR. These obligations include:
• The processor may only use a sub-processor with the consent of the controller. That consent may be specific to a particular sub-processor or general. Where the consent is general, the processor must inform the controller of changes and give them a c hance to object (art. 28(2),art. 28(3)(d));
• The processor must ensure it flows down these obligations to any sub-processor. The processor remains responsible for any processing by the sub-processor (art. 28(4));
• The processor must assist the controller to comply with requests from individuals exercising their rights to access, rectify, erase or object to the processing of their personal data (art. 28(3)(e));
This obligations are usually found in the Data Processing Agreement that should be signed between the controller and processor.
