Most of Diaverum’s services, features and functions on the Site do not require any form of registration, allowing you to visit the Site without telling us who you are.

Such personal information may include, but may not be limited to,

• your name,
• the name of your organization (if any),
• your e-mail address,

For some services, you may also be requested to provide certain limited medical information. Certain personal information may be mandatory, which means that if you choose not to submit it, it may not be possible for you to gain access to certain parts of the Site or for us to respond to your query.

In general, all information directly or indirectly linked to a natural living person is personal information. This includes photos and sound recordings of individuals even though no names are mentioned. Encrypted data and various types of electronic identities, such as IP numbers, are considered personal information if they can be linked to natural person.

By accepting this Privacy Policy and submitting your personal information at such location, or by other means, you acknowledge and agree to Diaverum’s collection and use of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Use of Personal Information

Before collecting personal information, we will identify the purposes for which the information is being collected. We will collect and use your personal information solely with the objective of fulfilling those purposes and we will inform you of such purposes when we ask you for your information. For example, we may collect and use personal information to provide you with products or services or to bill you for products or services which you request. We may also use the information to market products and services which we think may be of interest to you, or to communicate with you for other purposes.

The lawful basis to collect, store and use the personal information include: 

• legitimate interests for offering customized products and services, administering our website and business, personalizing our website for you, enabling your use of the services available on our website, dealing with inquiries and complaints made by or about you relating to our website
• consent, your explicit and informed approval to the usage of your personal information
• contractual necessity, if a contract between you and us is entered into

Your information will not be stored for longer than is necessary for the identified purposes, or to fulfill any regulatory or legal requirement, or until your consent is withdrawn.

No profiling or automated decision-making is performed using your personal information.

If you send us a direct email we will process the personal data in that email with respect for your privacy and according to this privacy policy.

Disclosure to Third Parties

We will not sell, share or otherwise distribute your personal information to third parties except as provided in this Privacy Policy. We may transfer your personal information to Diaverum affiliates and other third parties with whom Diaverum has a contractual relationship in order to further process your information in accordance with the purpose(s) for which the information was originally collected, such as delivery of services, evaluation or technical support. Such transfer will only occur if the affiliate or third party has contracted with Diaverum that it will only use the personal information for the agreed upon purpose(s) and within the limits under which the information was originally collected.

We may disclose your personal information if we are required to do so by applicable law, court order or government regulation, or if such disclosure is otherwise necessary in support of any legal or criminal investigation.

Additionally, in the event of a reorganization, merger or sale, we may transfer your personal information to the relevant third party, provided that such party agrees to treat the personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We may obtain the services of outside parties to assist us in collecting and processing the information described in this section and all such third parties will be placed under the obligations described above.

• If you have given your consent to processing of your personal information for an explicit purpose, you may always withdraw your consent.
• You also have the right to object to certain processing of your personal information, and request that the processing of your personal information be limited. Please note that limitation or deletion of your personal information may result in us not being able to fulfil our obligations.

We have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction.

Transfer of Personal information abroad

Since Diaverum is a multinational corporation, we have databases in different jurisdictions and we may transfer your personal information to one of Diaverum’s databases outside your country of residence. Consequently, your personal information may be transferred to a database in a country outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”). These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the EEA. If we transfer your personal information outside of the EEA in this way, we will take steps to ensure that your personal information is adequately protected through appropriate safeguards, standardized data protection agreements or reliance of an EU Adequacy decision. We may transfer personal data to a country outside the EU/EEA without an adequate standard of protection in the following circumstances: with your explicit and informed consent, fulfilling a Contract or Legal Claim.
