We will only process your personal data if we have obtained your prior consent, if the processing is necessary to perform our contractual obligations or to take pre-contractual steps at your request, if the processing is necessary to comply with legal or regulatory obligations or if the processing is necessary for our legitimate interests.

Please note that no data transmission or IT storage system can be 100% secure and we cannot fully guarantee the security of personal data. However, when data transmission or IT storage problems arise we have appropriate procedures in place to protect your personal information and privacy.

 

How we may share your personal information

We may share personal data:

  • if required to do so by law and/or regulations;
  • applications and systems, website analytics and search engine providers. This also includes the protection and with service providers that carry out functions or services on our behalf that enable our operations. This includes our IT securing of our systems and services.

International transfers of personal data

Prilenia performs research in collaboration with partners located all across the world.

Prilenia is committed to complying with European and other applicable Data Protection Laws regarding information that is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA). The laws in countries outside the EEA may not be as strict as the laws within the EEA. Therefore, Prilenia has taken measures to protect your privacy and fundamental privacy rights when your personal data is transferred outside the EEA and to other countries where no adequacy decisions of the European Commission apply. This includes the use of appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses and safe transfer protocols to ensure adequate protection.

We may also inform you about a proposed data transfer and ask you for your explicit consent. When we do this, we will always inform you of the possible risks to your personal data. When personal information collected by Prilenia and is subsequently transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), detailed information can be found in the Informed Consent Form that you will be or have been provided with.

 

Retention of your personal information

We will retain your personal data for as long as is necessary in order to fulfill the purposes for which we have collected your personal information, including any legal requirements. When the personal information is no longer needed for its original processing goal, and there are no further legal requirements, we will delete your personal information.

 

How to exercise your Privacy Rights

You have the following rights with regard to your Personal Information:

  • Right to information – you may request access to all personal data collected (including processing purposes, categories of personal data, estimated retention period) for inspection.
  • Right to rectification, erasure and restriction – you have the right to have incorrect personal data corrected or amended and, under certain circumstances, the right to have your personal data removed from our files. You acknowledge that, if you refuse to provide certain data or ask for the erasure of your personal data, we will no longer be able to provide certain services. You also have the right, under certain circumstances, to ask for the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • Right to withdraw consent- If the processing activity is based on our consent, you have a right to withdraw this consent at any point. Please note that the withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

To exercise the above rights, you can contact Prilenia’s Data Protection Officer, dpo@prilenia.com.
