For the development of our business activities, it is essential to process personal data which can be collected through digital means (e.g., email, web forms or questionnaires), by completing paper documents (e.g., contracts or forms), or through in-person or telephone conversations.

In such cases, we will inform you appropriately and request your prior explicit consent.

Similarly, you have the right to object to this type of processing at any time by contacting us in writing at: [email protected]

Data Sharing

As a general rule, our entity does not share personal data with third parties, although this may be necessary in certain cases, for example:

If you are an information requester, depending on the type of information requested, your data, including special category data (e.g., health data or the sex of the requester and their partner), may be shared with medical providers responsible for informing you about the specific service related to your request. Such sharing will only occur with your prior explicit consent.

According to the laws of each country, providers compatible with the selected processing may be located outside Spain. In such cases, the list of countries will be clearly indicated in the form before providing your data and in the personalized report sent via email. Therefore, your data may be shared with these medical providers located in these countries, but only with your prior explicit consent. More information in the Information Requesters Policy.

If you have made a financial donation or are a subscriber to our professional or clinic directory, your personal data may be shared with third-party entities due to legal obligations (e.g., Tax Agency), or with certain providers to whom we delegate some responsibilities (e.g., accounting advisors). In such cases, they are bound by a data processing agreement to comply with the same security measures implemented by our entity and to maintain confidentiality.

International Data Transfer

In case of transfers to third-party entities located outside the European Economic Area, we will inform you and request your prior explicit consent.

Security Measures
