D. Basic principles regarding personal data processing

The data protection principles outline the basic responsibilities for organizations handling personal data. Article 5(2) of the GDPR stipulates that “the controller shall be responsible for, and be able to demonstrate, compliance with the principles.”

  1. Lawfulness, fairness and transparency: Personal data must be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject.
  2. Purpose limitation: Personal data must be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes.
  3. Data minimization: Personal data must be adequate, relevant, and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed. The Company must apply anonymization or pseudonymization to personal data if possible to reduce the risks to the data subjects concerned.
  4. Accuracy: Personal data must be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; reasonable steps must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified in a timely manner.
  5. Storage period limitation: Personal data must be kept for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed.
  6. Integrity and confidentiality: Taking into account the state of technology and other available security measures, the implementation cost, and likelihood and severity of personal data risks, the Company must use appropriate technical or organizational measures to process Personal Data in a manner that ensures appropriate security of personal data, including protection against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized access to, or disclosure. Appropriate technical or organizational measures are to be taken in order to comply with this requirement: such data security measures can include the use of encryption and authentication and authorisation mechanisms.
  7. Accountability: Data Controllers must be responsible for and be able to demonstrate compliance with the principles outlined above.

E. Legal Basis for processing (for EEA Users)

If you are an individual in the European Economic Area (EEA), we collect and process information about you only where we have a legal basis for doing so under applicable EU laws. The legal basis depends on the Services you use and how you use them. This means we collect and use your information only where:

  • We need that information as to provide you the Services, including to operate the Services, provide customer support and personalized features and to protect the safety and security of the Services;
  • It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote the Services and to protect our legal rights and interests;
  • You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose; or
  • We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place.  Where we are using your information because we or a third party (e.g. your employer) have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use though, in some cases, this may mean no longer using the Services.

F. Personal data collection

AiGIA collects information about you when you provide it to us, when you use our Services, and when other sources provide it to us, as further described below.

  • Personal data directly provided by a You

We collect information about you when you input it into the Services or otherwise provide it directly to us.

In order to solve the technical problems you reported via our feedback channel, we may need to process (analyze) information regarding the way you used our product in the context that generated the issue, such as: account information, browser information, operating system, device and other technical information about the system, the artefacts you used within our Product and the way you used them. These information will be used only for improving our services and for solving the technical issues you reported. ,

  2. With other Service Customers 

When you use the Services, we share certain information about you with other Service Customers.

  1. For collaboration

You can create content, which may contain information about you, and grant permission to others to see, share, edit, copy and download that content based on settings you or your organization (if applicable) select. Some of the collaboration features of the Services display some or all of your profile information to other Service Customers when you share or interact with specific content. For example, when you comment in a session, we display your profile picture and name next to your comments so that other Customers with access to the page or issue understand who made the comment.

You can confirm whether certain Service properties are publicly visible from within the Services or by contacting the relevant administrator.

  1. Internally & with affiliated companies 

We share information we collect internally within AiGIA, e.g. with the Product Development team, Support team, Marketing team, Sales & Business Development, and with affiliated companies and, in some cases, with prospective affiliates. Affiliated companies are companies owned or operated by us. The protections of this privacy policy apply to the information we share in these circumstances.

  1. Managed accounts and administrators

If you register or access the Services using an email address with a domain that is owned by your employer or organization or associate that email address with your existing account, and such organization wishes to establish an account or site, certain information about you including your name, profile picture, contact info, content and past use of your account may become accessible to that organization’s administrator and other Service Customers sharing the same domain.  If you are an administrator for a particular site or group of Customers within the Services, we may share your contact information with current or past Service Customers, for the purpose of facilitating Service-related requests.

  1. With third parties service providers 

We work with third-party service providers (e.g. advertising, market research, conferencing ) to provide website and application development, hosting, maintenance, backup, storage, virtual infrastructure, payment processing, analysis and other services for us, which may require them to access or use information about you.

  1. With third parties products

We work with third parties who provide consulting, sales, support, and technical services (e.g. Hubspot, CookieBot, Hotjar) to deliver and implement customer solutions around the Services. We may share your information with these third parties in connection with their services, such as to assist with billing and collections, to provide localized support, and to provide customizations. We may also share information with these third parties where you have agreed to that sharing of information.

  1. With your consent

We share information about you with third parties when you give us consent to do so. For example, we can display personal testimonials of satisfied customers on our public websites. With your consent, we may post your name alongside the testimonial.

  1. Compliance with Enforcement Requests and Applicable Laws; Enforcement of Our Rights

In exceptional circumstances, we may share information about you with a third party if we believe that sharing is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, including to meet national security requirements, (b) enforce our agreements, policies and terms of service, (c) protect the security or integrity of our products and services, (d) protect AiGIA, our customers or the public from harm or illegal activities, or (e) respond to an emergency which we believe in good faith requires us to disclose information to assist in preventing the death or serious bodily injury of any person.

  1. How we store and secure personal data
  2. Storage and security 

We use industry standard technical and organizational measures to secure the information we store. While we implement safeguards designed to protect your information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, is  safe from intrusion by others.

If you use your server or data center, responsibility for securing storage and access to the information you put into the Services rests with you and not with AiGIA. We strongly recommend that server or data center users configure SSL to prevent interception of information transmitted over networks and to restrict access to the databases and other storage points used.

  1. Duration of storage

How long we keep information we collect about you depends on the type of information, as described in further detail below.

  1. We retain your account information for as long as your account is active and a reasonable period thereafter in case you decide to re-activate the Services. We also retain some of your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements, to support business operations, and to continue to develop and improve our Services.
  2. If your account is deactivated or disabled, some of your information and the content you have provided will remain in order to allow your team members or other Customers to make full use of the Services.
  3. If the Services are made available to you through an organization (e.g., your employer), we retain your information as long as required by the administrator of your account.
  4. For marketing purposes, if you have elected to receive marketing emails from us, we retain information about your marketing preferences for a reasonable period of time from the date you last expressed interest in our Services. We retain information derived from cookies and other tracking technologies for a reasonable period of time from the date such information was created.
  5. For solving technical problems you reported: we store the information until we solve the issue you reported and we close the ticket within our support department.

After such time, we will either delete or de-identify your information or, if this is not possible, then we will securely store your information and isolate it from any further use until deletion is possible.

J. How we transfer information we collect 

We collect information globally and may transfer, process and store your information outside of your country of residence, to wherever we or our third-party service providers operate for the purpose of providing you the Services or have the servers located. Whenever we transfer your information, we take steps to respect the legal requirements laid down by the GDPR.

We make enquiries and require third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the applicable laws and regulation. Third-party service providers might use your personal data for their own purposes but only by respecting their Privacy Policies and the GDPR related principles. We will ensure our best efforts to permit them to process your personal data only for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

International transfers

Some of our external third parties or contractors are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so the processing of your data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA. Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • Adequacy decisions

We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission through adequacy decisions – the official list of countries that have been recognized to grant a standard of personal data protection compliant to that of the GDPR can be found at https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/adequacy-decisions_en.

In addition, UK will also be subject to an adequacy decision to replace the current interim solution, agreed under the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement, which allows for companies and organisations to transfer personal data from the EU to the UK up until 30 June 2021.

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)

Where we use certain service providers, we may use standard contractual data protection clauses which may have been approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.

AiGIA offers European Union Model Clauses, also known as SCCs, to meet the adequacy and security requirements for our Consumers that operate in the European Union and the United Kingdom, and other international transfers of data.

  • Participation in the EU – US and Swiss – US Privacy Shield Framework

Where we use or partner with providers based in the US, we adhere to principles stated by the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework to safeguard the transfer of information we collect from the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland. We make sure that the Privacy Shield Principles apply to processors of information about you that is subject to this Privacy Policy and that is transferred from the European Union, the European Economic Area, the UK, and Switzerland.

Under the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks, we are responsible for the processing of information about you that we receive from the EU, the UK, and Switzerland and onward transfers to a third party acting as an agent on our behalf. We comply with the Privacy Shield Principles for such onward transfers and remain liable in accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles if third-party agents that we engage to process such information about you on our behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles, unless we prove that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

To learn more about the Privacy Shield Program, please see www.privacyshield.gov.

Available remedies:

  • Independent dispute resolution – If AiGIA has not managed to handle your complaint addressed at dpo@aigia.health in a satisfactory manner, you can raise a concern to the attention of your data protection authorities or the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner, which will establish a panel in order to investigate and resolve complaints raised under the Privacy Shield.
  • Binding arbitration – If you have exhausted all other means to resolve your complaint regarding a potential breach of AiGIA’s obligations under the Privacy Shield Framework and if you are located in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, you may invoke binding arbitration.
  • Liability – AiGIA is liable for third parties processing personal data on its behalf. However, AiGIA reserves the right to prove that the non-compliance was not a result of AiGIA’s actions or was not in AiGIA’s control.

K. Data security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

L. Data retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

M. Personal data rights

According to the GDPR, the Data Subjects shall have the right to access to data, rectification, erasure, restriction on processing, objection to processing and right to data portability, as follows:

  1. Request access to your personal data. This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
  2. Request correction of your personal data. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
  3. Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it.
  4. Request restriction of processing your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
  5. Object to processing of your personal data. You may object to the processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which overrides your rights and freedoms.
  6. Right to withdraw consent. Where we are relying on consent to process your personal data, you may withdraw that consent. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

For exercising these rights, you may send a written request, dated and signed and send it to the above mentioned Trencadis headquarters or via email to the data protection officer at dpo@aigia.health.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority on data protection.

N. Fair processing guidelines 

1.Notices to data subjects

At the time of collection or before collecting personal data for any kind of processing activities including but not limited to selling products, services, or marketing activities, the Company is responsible to inform data subjects of the following: the types of personal data collected, the purposes of the processing, processing methods, the data subjects’ rights with respect to their personal data, the retention period, potential international data transfers, if data will be shared with third parties and the Company’s security measures to protect personal data. All such information is provided through this Policy.

2.Obtaining consents

Whenever personal data processing is based on the Customer’s consent, the Company is responsible for retaining a record of such consent. The Company is responsible for providing data subjects with options to provide the consent and must inform and ensure that their consent (whenever consent is used as the lawful ground for processing) can be withdrawn at any time.
