5. Availability

Gloo implements the following measures to protect Gloo Data from accidental destruction or loss:

• Gloo implements infrastructure redundancy to ensure that data is backed up at an industry-standard frequency and data access can be restored as soon as practicable where necessary;

• Gloo ensures that only Personnel authorized by Gloo may authorize the recovery of backups or the movement of data outside of its main data processing systems, and security measures have been adopted to avoid loss or unauthorized access to data, when moved; and

• Gloo implements and administers appropriate disaster recovery and business continuity plans.
