The Client shall bear any costs arising from audits or inspections, unless such audit or inspection reveals material non-compliance with this DPA, in which case Tourmoo shall bear its own costs of the audit.

Termination and Data Deletion

Upon termination of the Client's subscription to the Tourmoo platform, or upon the Client's written request, Tourmoo shall, at the choice of the Client, delete or return all Personal Data to the Client and delete existing copies.
