Notice pursuant to Article 13 of the European GDPR No. 2016/679 (GDPR)

With the entry into force of the GDPR, Biotechmed S.r.l., with headquarters in Somma Lombardo (VA), Viale Maspero 20, as the “data controller,” is required to provide certain information regarding the use of personal data. The GDPR governs the processing of personal data, meaning any operation or set of operations—whether or not carried out using electronic means—involving the collection, recording, organization, storage, consultation, processing, modification, selection, retrieval, comparison, use, interconnection, blocking, disclosure, dissemination, erasure, and destruction of data, even if not recorded in a database. The GDPR requires that the “data subject” or “the person from whom personal data is collected” be informed in advance of the following.

Source of Personal Data

The optional, explicit, and voluntary sending of emails to the addresses listed on this website or the completion of data collection forms results in the subsequent collection of the sender’s email address, first and last name, and phone number, which are necessary to respond to requests or to subscribe to newsletter services. No personal data of users is intentionally collected by the website. All data collected will, of course, be treated confidentially and in compliance with current legislation. The company undertakes to process personal data lawfully and fairly; to collect and record it for specific, explicit, and legitimate purposes; and to use it in other processing operations in ways that are not incompatible with those purposes. It also undertakes to ensure that such data is accurate, up-to-date, relevant, complete, and not excessive in relation to the purposes for which it is collected or subsequently processed; and to retain it in a form that allows for the identification of the data subject for a period of time no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or subsequently processed.

Purposes of the Processing for Which the Data Is Intended

1. The data subject’s personal data will be processed as part of the company’s normal business operations, and the processing will be aimed at fulfilling legal obligations and/or obligations arising from the contract to which the data subject is a party. The legal basis for the processing is the existence of a service contract or a contract for the supply of goods.

2. The processing of the data subject’s personal data may also be intended for the purpose of carrying out promotional and marketing activities by our company. The legal basis for the processing is the data subject’s consent.

Nature of Data Provision

The provision of personal data necessary for these purposes is optional; however, refusal to provide the data may result—depending on the specific nature of the relationship between the data and the purpose for which it is requested—in – the company’s inability to fulfill specific legal obligations and/or those arising from the contract to which the data subject is a party (with regard to point 1) and our company’s inability to carry out promotional and marketing activities (with regard to point 2).

Methods of Data Processing

In relation to the stated purposes, the processing of personal data is carried out using manual and computerized tools, following procedures strictly related to those purposes and, in any case, in a manner that ensures the security and confidentiality of the data. In any case, the company ensures the protection of the data being processed.

Categories of Recipients to Whom Data May Be Disclosed

In carrying out its business activities, the company will disclose the personal data of data subjects solely and exclusively to recipients strictly related to the purposes set forth in point 1) and to parties to whom disclosure is required by law. The parties belonging to the categories to whom the data may be disclosed will use the data as “data controllers” under the law, acting independently, as they are not involved in the original processing carried out by the company.

The European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires that data subjects be informed in the event of a transfer of data concerning them to third countries (non-EU or non-European Economic Area countries: Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein) or international organizations. The company, in its capacity as Data Controller, informs data subjects that the data is stored only on systems located within Italy.

We also inform you that Articles 15 through 22 of the GDPR grant data subjects specific rights. To exercise your rights with the Data Controller, you may submit a request to the following email address: privacy@biotechmed.it
