The purpose for processing the personal data / recipients (or categories of recipients) of personal data / the legal basis for processing the personal data

The purpose for processing the personal data is direct marketing based on customer relationship including creating a customer profile and profiling (information and direct mailings regarding medicinal products).

Company will not disclose the collected data for commercial purposes to third parties. The controller may disclose your information to selected partners in order to enable direct marketing operations. We may share your information with third parties, such as those who assist us by performing technical operations such as data storage and hosting. The controller may disclose the data to service providers selected by the controller for fulfilling the purposes of the register. Company uses an internet browser-based customer relationship management platform, technically maintained by a service provider called Interactive Medica for which purposes personal data is disclosed to Interactive Medica.

If ownership or control of Orion Corporation or all or any part of our products, services or assets changes, we may disclose your personal data to any new owner, successor or assignee.

The legal basis for processing of the personal data is consent of the data subject or legitimate interests of the controller / direct marketing purposes (EU General Data Protection Regulation Article 6.1.a or 6.1.f and recital 47). We only process personal data based on our legitimate interests, in case we have deemed, based on the balancing of interest test, that the rights and interests of the data subject will not override our legitimate interest.

Right of access and right to data portability

The data subject shall have the right of access, after having supplied sufficient search criteria, to the data on himself/herself in the personal data file, or to a notice that the file contains no such data. The data controller shall at the same time provide the data subject with information of the sources of data in the file, on the uses for the data in the file and the destinations of disclosed data.

The data subject has the right to data portability (EU General Data Protection Regulation Art 20), i.e. the right to receive his or her personal data, which the data subject has provided to the controller and that is being processed by automated means, in a structured and machine-readable format and the right to transmit those data to another controller, where the basis for processing is consent or the fulfilment of a contract between the controller and the data subject.

The data subject who wishes to have access to the data on himself/herself, as referred to above, shall make a request to this effect to the local representative of controller by a personally signed or otherwise comparably verified document.

10.

Right to withdraw consent / Right to object to processing for direct marketing purpose

In case the legal basis for processing the personal data is the consent of the data subject, the data subject has the right to withdraw the consent.

In case the legal basis for processing the personal data is the legitimate interests of the controller, the data subject has the right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes.

In case the withdrawal of consent or the objection to processing for direct marketing purposes only concerns direct marketing performed by the data controller, he or she shall make a request to this effect to the person in charge at the data controller by a personally signed or otherwise comparably verified document in writing to the local representative of the data controller named under section 2. hereinabove.

Withdrawal of consent does not render the processing of personal data performed prior to such withdrawal unlawful.

 11.

Rectification, restriction of processing and erasure

The data controller shall, on its own initiative or at the request of the data subject, without undue delay rectify, erase or supplement personal data contained in its personal data file if it is erroneous, unnecessary, incomplete or obsolete as regards the purpose of the processing. The data controller shall also prevent the dissemination of such data, if this could compromise the protection of the privacy of the individual or his/her rights.

In certain situations, the data subject shall have the right to obtain from the controller restriction of processing.

If the data controller refuses to act on the request of the data subject a written certificate to this effect shall be issued. The certificate shall also mention the reasons for the refusal. In this event, the individual may bring the matter to the attention of the Data Protection Ombudsman.

The data controller shall notify the rectification to the recipients to whom the data have been disclosed and to the source of the erroneous personal data. However, there is no duty of notification if this is impossible or unreasonably difficult.

Requests for rectification shall be made by contacting the local representative of the data controller named under section 2. hereof.
