However, in some circumstances if you do not provide us with your personal data described in this Privacy Policy, we shall not be held liable for any of the consequences arising therefrom. These include:
In order for us to fulfil the purposes listed above, we may disclose your personal data to the following parties, including, but not limited to:
Third parties are legally tasked with processing the personal data in line with the principles specified by us. Third parties are also held legally responsible for securing the personal data at an appropriate level of security in relation to applicable data protection laws and widely accepted industry standards.
We ensure that all appropriate confidentiality obligations and technical and organisational security measures are in place to protect the confidentiality and security of your personal data collected through the various methods described in this Privacy Policy to prevent any unauthorised access, unauthorised or unlawful alteration, disclosure or processing of such information and data, and the accidental loss or destruction of or damage to such information and data.
Some of the security measures we put in place include, but are not limited to:
Compliance with these provisions will be required by all authorised third parties who may access the personal data as described above.
Depending on the data protection laws in the country where you reside, in respect of the personal data which you have submitted to us, you may have the right at any time to:
Should you wish to exercise any of the abovementioned rights and such right is recognised within your country, please write in to us using the contact information found at Part XIV (Contact Us) below. In respect of requests for access to or to make correction of your personal data in our records, such requests must be supported with submission of the relevant documents as may be required by us. Depending on the nature and sensitivity of the request, we may require you to submit these documents in person so as to verify your identity from time to time to the address found at Part XIV (Contact Us) below. We will only make appropriate corrections based on the verifiable/verification and updated information provided by you. Your request may also be subject to payment of a fee in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
With regard to the withdrawal of consent, you may withdraw, in full or in part, your consent given to us.
You may request for deletion of your personal data by us, and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to honour your request. However, please note that we may be required to keep such information and not delete it for such period of time required by law or in order to fulfil our legal obligations. When we delete any information, it will be deleted from the active database but may remain in our archives. We may also retain your information for fraud prevention and detection or similar purposes.
Your exercise of any of the rights or withdrawal of consent referred to above is, in each case, subject to any applicable legal restrictions, contractual conditions, and a reasonable time period. This may also be subject to whether it would affect the operation of our business and our ability to meet our legal obligations.
We may also, in accordance with the data protection laws applicable to us, refuse to comply with your request. If we refuse to comply with such request, we will inform you of our refusal and reason for our refusal.
The personal data you submit to us will only be retained for as long as is required for the purpose for which it was collected or as permitted by applicable laws.
Even though our systems are designed to carry out data deletion processes according to the above guidelines, we cannot promise that all data will be deleted within a specific timeframe due to technical constraints. When we no longer need to use your personal data, it is removed from our systems and records or anonymised so that you can no longer be identified from it.
To provide our products and services, we may transfer your personal data to our affiliates and authorised employees, agents and third parties in the jurisdictions where we operate or where we deem it appropriate or desirable (unless applicable laws provide otherwise) for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy. In particular, we may transfer your personal data to our overseas affiliate(s) where our information technology storage facilities and servers may be located. There may be a possibility that the data protection levels in other jurisdictions do not completely meet the requirements of the data protection laws in the country where you reside, but all such transfers are performed in accordance with the requirements of applicable laws.
The Platform may contain links to and from the websites and applications of our partner networks, advertisers, patient program sponsors and/or other third parties. If you click on a link to any of these websites or applications, you will leave the Platform and be redirected to the website or application you selected. As we cannot control the activities of third parties, we cannot accept responsibility for any use of your personal data by such third parties, and we cannot guarantee that they will adhere to the same data privacy practices as us. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of these websites or applications before providing any personal data.
We may also offer you the opportunity to use your social media login. If you do so, please be aware that you share your profile information with us depending on your social media platform settings. We encourage you to visit the relevant social media platform and review its privacy policy to understand how your personal data is shared and used in this context.
We may use your personal data to market products, services, events, seminars, conferences, initiatives, and promotions and talks of ours (i.e., those of our subsidiaries, related and/or associated companies), business partners, sponsors and/or advertisers. We may communicate such marketing to you by way of post, phone call, email, short message service (SMS), social media and/or any other appropriate communication channels, depending on what you have agreed to with us. If you wish to unsubscribe to the processing of your personal data for marketing and promotions, you may click on the “Unsubscribe” link in the relevant email or message you receive from us. Alternatively, you may contact us directly at the email address found at Part XIV (Contact Us) below. Please note that once we have received your request to unsubscribe, it may take up to fourteen (14) working days for us to process your request and to be reflected in our systems. Therefore, you may still receive marketing communications during this period of time. Please also note that, even if you opt-out from receiving marketing communications, you may still receive administrative communications from us, such as order or other transaction confirmations, and other important non-marketing related announcements.
In the event of any inconsistency between the English version and the local language version of this Privacy Policy, the English version shall prevail.
