This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This document is Synthesia's Data Processing Addendum, which sets out rules for how Synthesia handles Customer Data in its role as a data processor. It adds to, rather than replaces, the main Customer Terms of Service or subscription agreement. It must be signed by someone who is actually authorized to do so.
Synthesia's Data Processing Addendum establishes the requirements that govern Synthesia in its role as a processor of Customer Data, supplementing rather than replacing the Customer Terms of Service or main online subscription agreement. The document requires execution by an authorized individual as a condition of proper formation. By positioning Synthesia as a data processor with respect to Customer Data, the DPA carries specific obligations within the frameworks that govern data processing relationships. Both the DPA and the underlying Customer Terms of Service govern the parties' relationship simultaneously.
For an individual user or customer organization, this document means that Synthesia's handling of Customer Data is governed by a defined set of processor obligations that sit alongside the existing Customer Terms of Service. Both agreements apply at the same time, so the rights and obligations in the main agreement remain in effect. The agreement must be executed by an authorized individual — if the person signing lacks authorization, the agreement may not be properly formed.
