and/or Domestic Irish Law; and Domestic Irish Law means the Data Protection Legislation and
any other law that applies in Ireland.

compliance with this clause 1.d.

of business and in either case the Supplier continues to reflect the requirements of the
Data Protection Legislation. As between the Customer and the Supplier, the Supplier shall
