Privacy Statement

What is personal data?Personal data is information that identifies you or tells something about you directly or can be traced back to you. There are many types of personal data. This includes your name, address or email address, as well as your computer's IP address. Personal data refers to all information that can be associated with you. Special information, such as someone's race, religion or medical history, is considered ‘sensitive personal data’.
-
How Mediq looks after your personal dataMediq stores your personal data to the extent necessary to provide services to you and to the extent necessary or permitted by law. Personal data that is no longer needed is deleted as quickly as possible. Mediq uses secure and legally approved systems to protect your personal data against loss or any form of unlawful processing.
-
How does Mediq process your personal data?We need your personal data to provide you with the best possible advice about our products and services, and to ensure that the selling and purchasing process runs as smoothly as possible for these products and services.

The legislator sets out a number of requirements for the processing of personal information
These include the following:
- A lawful purpose that is communicated to the data subject in a clear and timely manner.
- A legal basis for the processing of personal data, for example an agreement, the consent of the data subject, an essential obligation or a legitimate interest that overrides the privacy interests of the data subject.
- Data minimization — no more data may be collected and processed than is necessary for the purpose.
- Subsidiarity — if there are other means of achieving this purpose which are less burdensome toward the data subject, these should be used.
- Appropriate organisational and technical measures to protect the personal data being processed.
-
Do you want us to modify or delete your personal data?You can contact us at any time to request to view your personal data and/or to modify, supplement, delete or restrict your personal data if it is factually incorrect, incomplete or irrelevant.
