International Transfers of Your Personal Data

Any Personal Data you provide to us through your use of this website may be transferred to or stored in a geographic region that imposes different privacy obligations than your country of origin. This means that your Personal Data may be sent to a country with less restrictive data protection laws than your own. Any such transfer will be conducted in compliance with applicable law.

If your Personal Data is covered by the GDPR: For transfers of Personal Data to a third country outside the European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA) or in absence of an adequacy decision, within TauRx, its business partners and service providers, we establish contracts containing the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, which according to the EU Commission decisions of 27 December 2004 (2004/915/EC) and 05 February 2010 (C(2010)593) constitute appropriate and suitable safeguards to ensure compliance with GDPR.

Retention / Storage Period of Your Personal Data

The length of time in which we will store your Personal Data will differ depending on the purpose for which we have collected and are processing your data. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include: (i) the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you and provide the site to you; (ii) whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject; or (iii) whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to the enforcement of the site Terms of Use, applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations).

Information About Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Data

You have certain rights regarding our use and processing of your Personal Data.

If your Personal Data are covered by the GDPR (applicable if you are an individual within the European Economic Area), you have the following rights with respect to your Personal Data:

  • The right to request access to the Personal Data that TauRx has about you;
  • The right to rectify or correct any Personal Data that is inaccurate or incomplete;
  • The right to request a copy of your Personal Data in electronic format so that you can transmit the data to third parties, or to request that TauRx directly transfer your Personal Data to one more third parties;
  • The right to object to the processing of your Personal Data for marketing and other purposes;

Please note that erasure or restriction of processing is only possible if and to the extent that the processing of Personal Data is based on your consent or our legitimate interests. If data processing is based on consent, note that you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, but the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. In the event of an erasure request, we may retain a copy of your Personal Data for our record-keeping purposes and to avoid entering your personal data in our systems after your request.

In the event that you believe or have the impression that our data processing does not comply with the GDPR, you are entitled to lodge a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority.

Data Security

TauRx and our service providers take reasonable steps to protect Personal Data we access or receive through this website from loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure and we make no guarantee as to the security of your Personal Data.
