Clause 1 — Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this Module 2 is to ensure compliance with Article 28(3) and Article 28(4) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and to provide appropriate safeguards for transfers of personal data from data subjects located in the European Union or European Economic Area to Skybridge Fintech Ltd., a processor established in a third country, namely the United States.
This Module 2 applies to the transfer of personal data relating to approximately 3,200 EU-resident Meridian accountholders, including expatriate and dual-resident account holders, whose personal data is processed through the SBF Core platform. The scope of processing includes personal data transferred or otherwise made available from the European Union to the United States for the provision of SBF Core services under the Data Processing Agreement and the related SaaS subscription agreement.
The clauses apply to all personal data described in Annex I.B and to all processing operations performed by Skybridge Fintech Ltd. on behalf of Meridian Federal Savings Bank in connection with the relevant services.
Clause 2 — Effect and Invariability of the Clauses
The parties acknowledge and agree that these clauses set out appropriate safeguards, including enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies, for the transfer and processing of personal data subject to Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
The clauses shall not be modified except as permitted under Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914. The parties have selected the appropriate module, completed the annexes, identified the parties and transfers, and added supplementary safeguards where permitted and appropriate. No provision of this package shall be interpreted as varying or contradicting the Standard Contractual Clauses in a manner that would prejudice the rights of data subjects or the effectiveness of the safeguards provided under the clauses.
Additional contractual provisions in the Data Processing Agreement may apply to the extent they do not contradict, dilute, or impair the protections provided by these clauses.
Clause 3 — Third-Party Beneficiaries
Data subjects may invoke and enforce these clauses as third-party beneficiaries to the extent provided by the Standard Contractual Clauses. This includes EU-resident Meridian accountholders whose personal data is transferred to, accessed by, or processed by Skybridge Fintech Ltd. in connection with the SBF Core platform.
The parties acknowledge that approximately 3,200 EU-resident Meridian accountholders are expected to be within the population of data subjects whose personal data is subject to this Module 2. This estimate does not limit the application of the clauses to other data subjects whose personal data may fall within the scope of the transfer.
Clause 4 — Interpretation
These clauses shall be interpreted in light of the provisions and objectives of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. Where these clauses use terms defined in Regulation (EU) 2016/679, those terms shall have the same meaning as under that Regulation.
Any ambiguity shall be resolved in a manner that preserves the validity and effectiveness of the clauses as a transfer mechanism under Article 46 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914.
Clause 5 — Hierarchy
In the event of any contradiction between these Standard Contractual Clauses and any other agreement between the parties, including the Data Processing Agreement, the SaaS subscription agreement, any order form, schedule, security exhibit, service level agreement, or other contractual documentation, these Standard Contractual Clauses shall prevail.
This hierarchy applies only to the extent necessary to resolve the contradiction and shall not affect provisions of the Data Processing Agreement that provide additional safeguards or impose stricter obligations on Skybridge Fintech Ltd., provided such provisions do not conflict with these clauses.
Clause 6 — Description of the Transfer(s)
The details of the transfer are set out in Annex I.B of this package. Those details include the categories of data subjects, categories of personal data, sensitive data, frequency of transfer, nature of processing, purposes of processing, retention period, and identification of sub-processors.
The parties also cross-reference Schedule A of the Data Processing Agreement, which describes the subject matter, duration, nature, and purpose of the processing, the types of personal data, and categories of data subjects in connection with Skybridge’s provision of SBF Core services to Meridian.
Clause 7 — Docking Clause
The parties include the optional docking clause. Additional entities may accede to this Module 2 as data exporter or data importer, as applicable, with the agreement of the existing parties and by completing and signing the relevant accession documentation and annexes.
No accession shall reduce the rights of data subjects or the obligations of the existing parties under this Module 2. Any acceding party shall be bound by the clauses as if it had been an original party to the relevant module.
Clause 8 — Data Protection Safeguards
Clause 8.1 — Instructions
Skybridge Fintech Ltd. shall process personal data only on documented instructions from Meridian Federal Savings Bank, including with regard to transfers of personal data to a third country or an international organisation, unless required to do so by applicable law.
The documented instructions are set forth in the Data Processing Agreement, its Schedules, the applicable statement of work or order form, and this Standard Contractual Clauses package. Skybridge shall promptly inform Meridian if, in Skybridge’s opinion, an instruction infringes Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or other applicable Union or Member State data protection law.
Clause 8.2 — Purpose Limitation
Skybridge shall process personal data only for the specific purposes described in Annex I.B and in Schedule A of the Data Processing Agreement. Those purposes are limited to:
1. payment processing through SBF Core;
2. anti-fraud analytics, including fraud detection, risk scoring, and anomaly detection;
3. regulatory reporting and related banking compliance functions;
4. support, maintenance, and security of the SBF Core platform; and
5. activities reasonably necessary to provide the contracted services to Meridian.
Skybridge shall not process personal data for its own independent commercial purposes, advertising, sale, cross-context behavioral profiling, or any purpose incompatible with Meridian’s documented instructions.
Clause 8.3 — Transparency
Skybridge shall make available to Meridian, upon request, a copy of these Standard Contractual Clauses, including any supplements, annexes, and descriptions of technical and organisational measures.
Where required by law or reasonably necessary to respond to a data subject inquiry, Meridian may make relevant portions of the clauses available to data subjects, provided that commercially sensitive information, security-sensitive information, and confidential business information may be redacted to the extent permitted by applicable law and without impairing data subject rights.
Clause 8.4 — Accuracy
Taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Skybridge, Skybridge shall take reasonable steps to ensure that personal data processed on behalf of Meridian is accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date.
Where Skybridge becomes aware that personal data received from Meridian or processed on Meridian’s behalf is inaccurate or obsolete, Skybridge shall promptly inform Meridian. Skybridge shall cooperate with Meridian to erase, correct, or restrict the relevant personal data in accordance with Meridian’s documented instructions.
Clause 8.5 — Duration of Processing and Erasure or Return
Skybridge shall process personal data for the duration of the SaaS subscription agreement between Meridian and Skybridge, which has a five-year term, unless earlier terminated or extended in accordance with its terms.
Upon expiration or termination of the services, Skybridge shall return or delete personal data within 90 days, at Meridian’s election and in accordance with the Data Processing Agreement, unless retention is required by applicable law. If Skybridge is legally required to retain certain personal data, Skybridge shall continue to protect such data in accordance with these clauses and shall not process it except as required by applicable law.
Clause 8.6 — Security of Processing
Skybridge shall implement and maintain technical and organisational measures designed to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk. The measures are described in Annex II and include, at a minimum:
1. encryption at rest using AES-256 for personal data stored in SBF Core and on Osprey Cloud infrastructure;
2. encryption in transit using TLS 1.2 or higher for all data transmissions among Meridian, Skybridge, Osprey Cloud, and Skybridge Fintech Europe B.V.;
3. multi-factor authentication for administrative access;
4. role-based access controls and least-privilege access;
5. annual penetration testing conducted by Ironvault Security Group LLC;
6. an annual SOC 2 Type II audit conducted by Graystone & Ketchum LLP, with the current report covering the period from October 1, 2024 through September 15, 2025; and
7. incident response procedures as set forth in Schedule D of the Data Processing Agreement.
Skybridge shall maintain incident response procedures appropriate for the nature of the services and the sensitivity of the personal data. Schedule D of the Data Processing Agreement governs operational escalation, breach investigation, customer notification, and coordination with Meridian regarding regulatory reporting obligations.
Clause 8.7 — Sensitive Data
The transfer may involve sensitive or high-risk categories of data, including Social Security numbers and anti-fraud behavioral biometric data such as keystroke dynamics and mouse movement patterns. Although these data categories may not in all cases constitute special categories of personal data under Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the parties treat them as sensitive for purposes of contractual safeguards and applicable U.S. state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act and the New Jersey Data Privacy Act S3377.
Skybridge shall apply additional restrictions and safeguards to such data, including encryption, strict access controls, purpose limitation to fraud detection and related banking compliance functions, logging of privileged access, and minimisation of access to personnel with a documented need to know.
Clause 8.8 — Onward Transfers
Skybridge shall not disclose or transfer personal data to any third party except as permitted by these clauses, Clause 9, the Data Processing Agreement, and Meridian’s documented instructions.
Onward transfers to sub-processors are permitted only where Skybridge complies with Clause 9 and imposes on the sub-processor data protection obligations equivalent to those imposed on Skybridge under these clauses. Current authorised sub-processors are:
1. Osprey Cloud Infrastructure, Inc., providing IaaS/PaaS hosting; and
2. Skybridge Fintech Europe B.V., providing EU personal data processing, engineering, customer support, and compliance functions.
Skybridge shall ensure that Module 3 Standard Contractual Clauses are in place for sub-processing arrangements requiring such clauses.
Clause 8.9 — Documentation and Compliance
Skybridge shall make available to Meridian all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with these clauses and the Data Processing Agreement. Skybridge shall allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by Meridian or another auditor mandated by Meridian, subject to reasonable confidentiality, security, and operational safeguards.
The parties agree that audit rights shall be exercised consistently with the Data Processing Agreement. Unless required by a regulator, supervisory authority, or applicable law, Meridian may conduct an audit no more than once in any 12-month period and shall provide at least 30 days’ advance written notice. The parties agree that Skybridge’s SOC 2 Type II report shall serve as the primary audit mechanism, supplemented by security questionnaires, remediation summaries, and reasonable follow-up inquiries.
Nothing in this Clause 8.9 limits access rights of banking regulators or supervisory authorities, including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, or the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, where such access is required by applicable law or regulatory expectations.
Clause 9 — Use of Sub-processors
The parties select Option 2 — General Written Authorisation.
Meridian grants Skybridge general written authorisation to engage the sub-processors listed in Annex III. Skybridge shall specifically inform Meridian in writing of any intended additions or replacements of sub-processors at least 30 days before such changes become effective.
Meridian shall have the right to object to any proposed sub-processor change within the notice period on reasonable data protection, security, regulatory, or operational grounds. If Meridian objects and the parties cannot resolve the objection through good-faith discussions, Meridian may terminate the affected services and the relevant Standard Contractual Clauses as to the affected processing.
Skybridge shall impose on each sub-processor the same data protection obligations as those set out in these clauses, including through Module 3 Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable. Skybridge shall remain fully liable to Meridian for the performance of each sub-processor’s obligations.
The current authorised sub-processors are:
1. Osprey Cloud Infrastructure, Inc. — IaaS/PaaS hosting in US-East, Ashburn, Virginia, and EU, Frankfurt, Germany; and
2. Skybridge Fintech Europe B.V. — EU personal data processing in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Clause 10 — Data Subject Rights
Skybridge shall deal promptly and appropriately with inquiries and requests from data subjects relating to the processing of personal data under these clauses. To the extent Skybridge receives a data subject request directly, Skybridge shall promptly notify Meridian unless prohibited by applicable law.
Skybridge shall assist Meridian in fulfilling Meridian’s obligations to respond to requests by data subjects under Regulation (EU) 2016/679, including requests for access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. Such assistance shall include reasonable technical and organisational support, retrieval of relevant records, correction or deletion upon documented instruction, and information reasonably necessary for Meridian to verify and respond to the request.
The authorised contact point at Skybridge for data subject rights matters is:

Clause 11 — Redress
Skybridge shall inform data subjects, in a transparent and readily accessible manner, of a contact point authorised to handle complaints relating to processing under these clauses, where Skybridge is required to do so under the Standard Contractual Clauses or applicable law.
Skybridge shall deal promptly with complaints received from data subjects and shall cooperate with Meridian in investigating and resolving such complaints. The parties shall seek amicable resolution where appropriate and without prejudice to the rights of data subjects.
Data subjects retain the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority and to seek judicial remedies in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and the Standard Contractual Clauses.
Clause 12 — Liability
Each party shall be liable to data subjects for damages caused by its breach of these clauses. Where more than one party is responsible for damage caused to a data subject as a result of a breach of these clauses, the responsible parties shall be jointly and severally liable to the data subject, without prejudice to rights of contribution among the parties.
As between Meridian and Skybridge, liability is subject to the liability provisions of the Data Processing Agreement, including the applicable cap equal to the greater of $5.0 million or two times the trailing-12-month fees paid by Meridian to Skybridge. For Meridian, based on annual contract value of $2.74 million, this cap is currently $5.48 million.
The liability cap does not limit data subjects’ rights under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or these clauses to the extent such limitation would be impermissible under applicable law.
Clause 13 — Supervision
The competent supervisory authority for this Module 2 is the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, the Dutch Data Protection Authority.
The parties designate the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens based on the Netherlands establishment of Skybridge Fintech Europe B.V., Skybridge’s EU establishment within the transfer architecture. Skybridge agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of and cooperate with the competent supervisory authority in any procedure aimed at ensuring compliance with these clauses.
Clause 14 — Local Laws and Practices Affecting Compliance
The parties warrant that they have no reason to believe that the laws and practices in the United States applicable to Skybridge prevent Skybridge from fulfilling its obligations under these clauses.
In providing this warranty, the parties have considered, among other factors:
1. the nature and volume of the transferred personal data;
2. the purposes of processing through SBF Core;
3. the sensitivity of the data, including Social Security numbers and behavioral biometric data;
4. Skybridge’s EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework self-certification, Certification ID DPF-2025-03912;
5. supplementary technical and organisational measures, including encryption, access controls, logging, and pseudonymisation where applicable;
6. the likelihood and potential scope of access by U.S. public authorities;
7. available legal remedies and transparency mechanisms; and
8. the Transfer Impact Assessment conducted by Calderwood & Harkness LLP dated December 8, 2025.
Skybridge shall promptly notify Meridian if Skybridge has reason to believe that it is or has become subject to laws or practices that would prevent it from complying with these clauses. Upon such notification, Meridian may suspend transfers, require additional safeguards, or terminate the affected processing as provided in Clause 16.
Clause 15 — Obligations of the Data Importer in Case of Access by Public Authorities
Clause 15.1 — Notification
Skybridge shall promptly notify Meridian of any legally binding request by a public authority, including judicial, law enforcement, intelligence, or regulatory authorities, for disclosure of personal data transferred under these clauses, unless prohibited by applicable law.
If Skybridge is prohibited from notifying Meridian, Skybridge shall use its best efforts to obtain a waiver of the prohibition, with a view to communicating as much information as possible as soon as possible. Skybridge shall document its efforts and make such documentation available to Meridian where legally permitted.
Clause 15.2 — Review of Legality and Data Minimisation
Skybridge shall review the legality of any request for disclosure, including whether the requesting authority has proper jurisdiction and whether the request is valid, binding, proportionate, and sufficiently specific. Where Skybridge concludes that reasonable grounds exist to challenge the request, Skybridge shall challenge it or seek appropriate relief, including narrowing, modification, protective treatment, or judicial review, as applicable.
Skybridge shall disclose only the minimum amount of personal data legally required and shall take reasonable steps to prevent overbroad, indiscriminate, or disproportionate disclosure.
Clause 15.3 — Transparency
To the extent legally permitted, Skybridge shall provide Meridian with aggregate information concerning requests received from public authorities. Such information may include the number of requests, types of requesting authorities, categories of data requested, and outcomes of requests.
Skybridge shall not be required to provide information where doing so is prohibited by applicable law, but shall use reasonable efforts to provide transparency in a manner that does not violate such law.
Clause 16 — Non-compliance and Termination
Skybridge shall promptly inform Meridian if Skybridge is unable to comply with these clauses for any reason.
Where Meridian becomes aware that Skybridge is in breach of these clauses or is unable to comply with them, Meridian may suspend the transfer of personal data until compliance is restored or the contract is terminated. Meridian may terminate the affected processing where Skybridge is in substantial or persistent breach of these clauses, fails to cure such breach within a reasonable period, or is unable to comply with the clauses.
Upon termination, Skybridge shall return or delete personal data within 90 days, unless retention is required by applicable law. Any retained data shall remain subject to the protections of these clauses for so long as retained.
Clause 17 — Governing Law
These clauses shall be governed by the law of the Netherlands.
The law of the Netherlands is selected as the law of the EU Member State in which Skybridge Fintech Europe B.V., the EU establishment of Skybridge within the transfer architecture, is established.
Clause 18 — Choice of Forum and Jurisdiction
Any dispute arising from these clauses shall be resolved by the courts of the Netherlands.
Data subjects may also bring legal proceedings before the courts of the Member State in which the data subject has habitual residence, as provided by the Standard Contractual Clauses and Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
