We have little or no control over these other users, so any information you contribute to these Social Media Applications might not be handled in line with this privacy statement.

Where do we transfer your personal data?

Information we hold about you may be transferred to countries :

  • Where we do business.
  • Which are linked to your engagement with us.
  • From which you regularly receive or transmit information.
  • Where our third parties conduct their activities.

These countries may have less stringent privacy laws than we do, so any information they hold can become subject to their laws and disclosure requirements, including disclosure to governmental bodies, regulatory agencies and private persons. In addition, a number of countries have agreements under which information is exchanged with other countries for law enforcement, tax and other purposes.

We may also transfer your personal data when:

  • The transfer is to a country deemed to provide adequate protection of your personal data by the European Commission/ enforcement agencies; or
  • Where you have consented to the transfer.

For EU residents, when we, or our permitted third parties, transfer your personal data outside the EEA, we will impose contractual obligations on the recipients of that data to protect your personal data to the standard required in the EEA. We or they may also require the recipient to subscribe to international frameworks intended to enable secure data sharing. If we transfer your personal data outside the EEA in other circumstances (for example, because we have to by law), we will make sure it remains adequately protected.

We may share non-personal, anonymised and aggregated information with third parties for several purposes, including data analytics, research, submissions, thought leadership and promotional activity.

How MedRec protects your personal data?

We use a range of measures to ensure we keep your personal data secure, accurate and up to date. These include but not limited to:

  • Education and training to relevant staff to ensure they are aware of our privacy obligations when handling personal data.
  • Administrative and technical controls to restrict access to personal data to a 'need to know' basis.
  • Technological security measures, including fire walls, encryption and anti- virus software.
  • We may apply pseudonymisation, de-identification and anonymisation techniques in efforts to further protect personal data.
  • Physical security measures, such as security passes to access our premises.

The transmission of data over the internet (including by email) is never completely secure. So although we use appropriate measures to try to protect personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to us or by us.

What are your data protection rights?

Your data protection rights are highlighted here.

  • Access- 

    You can ask us to verify whether we are processing personal data about you, and if so, to provide more specific information.

  • Correction- 

    You can ask us to correct our records if you believe they contain incorrect or incomplete information about you.

  • Erasure- 

    You can ask us to erase (delete) your personal data after you withdraw your consent to processing or when we no longer need it for the purpose it was originally collected.

  • Processing restrictions- 

    You can ask us to temporarily restrict our processing of your personal data if you contest the accuracy of your personal data, prefer to restrict its use rather than having us erase it, or need us to preserve it for you to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim. A temporary restriction may apply while verifying whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to process it. You can ask us to inform you before we lift that temporary processing restriction.

  • Data portability- 

    In some circumstances, where you have provided personal data to us, you can ask us to transmit that personal data (in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format) directly to another company if is technically feasible.

  • Automated Individual Decision-making- 

    You can ask us to review any decisions made about you which we made solely based on automated processing, including profiling, that produced legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affected you.

  • Right to Object to Direct Marketing including Profiling- 

    You can object to our use of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, including profiling. We may need to keep some minimal information to comply with your request to cease marketing to you.

  • Right to Withdraw Consent- 

    You can withdraw your consent that you have previously given to one or more specified purposes to process your personal data. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. It may mean we are not able to provide certain products or services to you and we will advise you if this is the case.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information or to exercise any of your other rights. This helps us to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. No fee is required to make a request unless your request is clearly unfounded or excessive. Depending on the circumstances, we may be unable to comply with your request based on other lawful grounds.
