F.) Comply with our legal obligation

We may need to process your personal data to comply with legal obligations binding or accepted by us. Likewise, we may need to provide information to and as required by local law enforcement agencies, other government authorities, or otherwise required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our property, company, employees and customers.

Sometimes it is necessary to share your personal data with other Exeltis subsidiaries, companies of the Insud Pharma Group or third parties in order to guarantee the correct provision of the Website. We may share such information with the following:

• Insud Pharma Group companies due to the use of shared computer systems, which may be located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or in other countries.
• Business partners who offer products or services jointly with Exeltis.
• Service providers, to the extent necessary for the provision of a service.

Such entities may be located in Spain, other countries in the EEA or anywhere else in the world. When we keep personal data outside the EEA, we guarantee an adequate level of protection of the transferred data. To this purpose, we require service providers to take appropriate measures to protect the confidentiality and security of personal data.

For example, for services provided by providers outside the European Economic Area, we use Standard Model Clauses approved by the European Commission.

Exeltis may disclose User’s personal data to any public administration, when required by law and compelled to do so by such authorities. All data communications will always be carried out in compliance with the national data protection law in force and, where applicable, the GDPR.

Exeltis cares to ensure the security and confidentiality of the Users personal data. Therefore, we have implemented several security measures and technical means to prevent the loss, misuse or access to the personal data without the User permission in accordance with the national data protection laws and the GDPR.

Nevertheless, it is also the User responsibility to control his or her personal information, therefore Exeltis asks and encourages all Users to be careful sharing information and content. Exeltis shall not control the content and information the User chooses to share with other Users and, therefore, Exeltis is not responsible for the consequences of the Users own actions.

Exeltis pledges (i) to act rapidly and in a responsible manner in the event the Users personal data security is deemed at risk, and (ii) to report it if relevant with the greatest diligence.

In case of a personal data breach, Exeltis undertakes to notify the relevant data protection authority without undue delay after becoming aware of such breach. Likewise, when the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of Users, Exeltis will communicate the personal data breach and the measures taken to mitigate the risks and adverse effects to Users.

Much of the information referred to in this Privacy Policy is collected using cookies. Cookies are small text files containing small amounts of information that are downloaded and can be stored on your user device, for example, your computer, smartphone or tablet. These cookies are sometimes necessary to remember your account settings, language and country, but they also allow us to track and analyse Users behaviour on our Website and to display personalised advertisements on our Website or on third party websites. Where necessary, you will be asked to consent to the use of cookies. To obtain additional information on how cookies are used on the Website and its deactivation please visit the Cookie Policy.

The Website is not intended to be used by persons under the legal age. Under no circumstances will Exeltis voluntarily collect personal data from minors who cannot legally give their free consent. 

At any time, Users may exercise before Exeltis their data protection rights, in particular the right of access, rectification, restriction of processing, erasure, objection and portability pursuant to the applicable legislation. This means Users can ask what personal data we have about them, update, or they can request that Exeltis stops using data for a specific purpose, or simply require Exeltis to delete all personal data from our files and databases among other.

In the event the User decides to object to the processing of the personal data, Exeltis will no longer process personal data in connection to such User. Personal data may still be processed for the purposes established in data protection legislation or bring defence against legal claims.

After the User exercises any of the above-mentioned rights, and during Exeltis verification period, all personal data will be kept blocked. The blocking procedure will prevent Exeltis from processing or erasing such personal data.

For the exercise of any of the above-mentioned rights, the User shall contact Exeltis by email, addressing the request to dataprotection@insudpharma.com, indicating as reference: “EXERCISE OF RIGHTS” and identifying the right to be exercised. In addition, Users may also lodge a claim before the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as supervisory data protection authority in the UK if they consider that we have not processed their personal data in accordance with the regulations. Detailed information about the ICO is available on its web https://ico.org.uk/.
