1. If they have access to personal data whether live or in the test environment (test data should not be pd but often is!) they are data processors
2. I have not checked but I suspect the standard g-cloud contract may have suitable P7 compliant clauses. If not you can easily add a straightforward side agreement. In my experience contractors are happy to sign the necessary. It's for you to satisfy due diligence under P7
3. If they are accessing PD from Australia (even by viewing stuff on your servers here) then they are processing there and you will need to do a P8 assessment.
