General written authorisation

A controller’s standing permission for its processor to add new sub-processors, instead of approving each one. Corrandale gives it to Tennerby in clause 6.1. Each new company still needs 30 days’ notice first, and Corrandale may object. Agreement, clause 6.1 · Chapter 6 · see Sub-processor

Explained in Chapter 6, Sub-Processors: Permission, Notice and Objection, of Data Protection.

How it comes up, in Chapter 6
The Agreement takes the general route. Clause 6.1 gives Tennerby general written authorisation: a standing permission to add new ones, with notice. Corrandale also approves the two on the list in Schedule 3. Both are in the UK: one hosts the app, and one sends its emails and texts.
