LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING PERSONAL INFORMATION (EEA personal only)
If you are a visitor from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information as described above will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.
However, we will generally collect personal information from you only where we have your consent to do so, where it is required to perform a contract with you, or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some case, we may need to collect personal information from you to satisfy legal obligations or in order to protect your vital interests or those of another person (e.g. to inform patients of possible adverse side effects related to medication they are taking).
If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or for contacting purposes, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether or not the provision of your personal information is mandatory (as well as of the possible consequences of not providing your personal information).
Similarly, if we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will alert you and clarify what those legitimate interests are at the relevant time
If you have any questions or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your personal information, please contact us using the details provided under the "CONTACT US" heading below.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, if your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until it can be safely deleted.
INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFER
Your personal information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the one in which you are resident. These countries may have data protection laws that are different from the laws in your country.
