  • In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your personal data (see your legal rights section).

We do not share personal data outside of psKINETIC/psHEALTH unless one of the following factors applies:

  • You grant consent for us to do so:  We will share personal information with companies, organisations or individuals outside of psKINETIC/psHEALTH when we have your consent to do so. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any personal data.

  • For legal reasons: We will share personal information with companies, organisations or individuals outside of psKINETIC where such a disclosure is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject. We may also disclose your personal information where we are allowed by law to protect or enforce our rights or the rights of others and for the detection and prevention of crimes, such as fraud.

We will share non-personally identifiable information with our partners. For example, we may share information on click-through rates and links clicked from our marketing emails, newsletters, and our website.

If psKINETIC is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, the other parites involved in the business change may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.

  1. International Transfer

We do not normally transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area, but if we do we will ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • 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.
  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
  • Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US.
  1. Information Security

We strive to protect psKINETIC and our users from unauthorised access. In particular:

  • We review our information collection, storage and processing practices to guard against unauthorised access to our systems.
  • We restrict access to personal information to psKINETIC employees and sub-contractors who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations.
  • We offer users access to their personal data for the reasons of viewing, amending or requesting deletion.
  • 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.
  1. Your rights

You have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
  • Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. 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.
  • 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. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request for erasure and we will give you specific legal reasons if this is the case.
  • Object to 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 override your rights and freedoms.
  • Request restriction of processing of 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.
  • Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
  • Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please email: dataprotection@pskinetic.com.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

10.Third Party Links

Our website includes links to Third Party websites, which are not covered by our privacy policy. You will need to check the third party’s privacy policy to understand how your personal data will be processed. We do not accept liability or responsibility for third party websites and their privacy policies.

Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will post any privacy policy changes on our website and notify existing customers via email.
