Written Contract with Data Processors

In plain language

If you hire a third party to handle, process, or store the data collected by your drone, you must have a written contract in place that clearly defines their responsibilities.

Requirement as structured

Drone operators acting as data controllers must govern their relations with data processors using a written contract that outlines the processor's responsibilities for each operation of the drone collection and storage system.

Original regulatory text

As data controller, you would bear the main responsibilities under data protection law (see: Data Protection: The Basics) and your relations with processors must be governed by a written contract (see: Guide to Controller-Processor Contracts) outlining the responsibilities of processors for each operation of the drone collection and storage system.
