This Privacy Policy applies to your Personal Data when you use the Platform and Services or visit trialhub.com. Please, take the time to read it carefully. We want you to be clear how we use your information and the ways in which you can protect your privacy.
 

1. WHO USES YOUR INFORMATION

The company that uses your information is: FINDMECURE LTD. – a company incorporated under the law of England and Wales, registered into the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales under company number 10821379.

Contract person for privacy matters:

It is important to note that FindMeCure may act both as a Data Controller and Data Processor. The Security and Privacy Section in the Terms of Use as well as the Data Processing Agreement attached thereto settle the cases where FindMeCure is the Data Processor and the Customer is the Data Controller. For the avoidance of any doubt, this Privacy Policy applies to FindMeCure acting as Data Controller.

2. PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

Personal data is data that describes and is linkable to someone as a person. We collect some personal data in order to provide the services to all our Customers.

We may process the following personal data for the following purposes:

      • Email addresses – these are necessary for providing demo access of our Services to any stakeholders, authenticating the Customers/Authorised Users before allowing their access to the Platform and the Services, as well as for providing technical support, newsletters and notifications on the scope of our Services, their update, upgrade, amendment, new releases, development and/or termination.
      • Phone numbers – provision of a phone number is optional. If the Customer has opted to provide a phone number, it shall be used for providing technical support and communicating conditions in respect to the Services.

Data processing activities, listed above, are necessary for the performance of the agreements with our Customers. We also process the above data to provide you with information about the latest updates on features and developments of the Platform. All such notifications shall be strictly service-related. We shall not be using your contacts to promote third-party products or services

3. METHOD OF COLLECTION

Each Authorised User provides personally the Personal data, entered or uploaded to the Platform. Customers and Authorised Users are not allowed to enter third party personal data or provide such data to be entered by us in the respective account, including sign up a third party using their email address, without due authorization by such third party. We do not monitor or control the content, entered or uploaded by Authorised Users. It is the Customer’s and each Authorised user’s responsibility to provide and guarantee that the personal data processing activities, performed by the Customer and Authorised User with the Platform are compliant with the requirements of the applicable Data Protection Legislation.

4. SECURITY MEASURES

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss or other forms of unlawful processing. We make sure that personal data is only accessible by only those who need access to do their job, and that they are properly trained and authorised. Our staff is required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the company’s guidelines regarding confidentiality, ethics, and appropriate usage of data. Staff is required to execute a confidentiality agreement and are provided with proper training in online privacy and security.

5. PROCESSORS AND PROCESSING OUT OF EU

For providing quality Services we engage third-party service providers – processors, carefully selected according to their capacity for personal data protection and processing in compliance with our obligations under the applicable data protection legislation. We provide personal data to our processors to process it for us only based on our instructions and only in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. We do not sell or disperse your personal data otherwise.

We might transfer data we collect from you to persons/legal entities (‘Recipients’) outside the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) and the UK. When we do such transfers to third countries, we do so in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy, the UK and the EU data protection rules, in particular with the GDPR and the UK-GDPR. This may include (i) the transfer of data to Recipients located in countries, territories or part of specified sectors within such countries that are recognized as ensuring an adequate level of protection of the natural persons concerned; (ii) transfers pursuant to data transfer agreements that incorporate the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the EU Commission/Commissioner; or (iii) derogations for specific situations provided for in the UK and the EU data protection law, etc.

In addition to the aforementioned measures, we want to explicitly clarify our stance on the use of data within our TrialHub IQ platform. It is important for our users to know that TrialHub IQ does not incorporate a learning component that utilizes user queries to enhance or modify its knowledge base. This means that any queries submitted through TrialHub IQ are not used to train or inform any Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT or similar technologies.

We utilize these Large Language Models via secure API connections, ensuring that all interactions are governed by stringent confidentiality protocols and the highest security standards. This approach aligns with our commitment to data privacy and security, as outlined in our Privacy Policy. For more detailed information about our data handling practices in this context, please refer to the OpenAI Enterprise Privacy Framework (https://openai.com/enterprise-privacy), which provides comprehensive insights into the secure and private use of advanced AI models.

6. INFORMATION WE SHARE

We do not share personal information with companies, organisations, and individuals. We may share some information regarding clinical trials with third parties, but such information shall be anonymized and no third party shall receive individualised information about you and your projects. We may also share non-personally identifiable information publicly and with our partners. For example, we may share information publicly to show trends in the general use of our Services.

We may share data in case one of the following circumstances applies:

  1. With your consent – we will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals when we have your consent to do so.
  2. For making some services possible – to third-party processors, as described above.
  3. For legal reasons – we will share personal information with companies, organizations, or individuals, if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

    2. enforce the applicable Terms of Use, including investigation of potential violations.
    3. detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues.
    4. protect against harm to the rights, property, or safety of our company, our users, or the public as required or permitted by law.

13. CALIFORNIA CONSUMER PRIVACY ACT (CCPA)

CCPA defines Personal Information to include information that can identify, relate to, describe, be associated with, or be reasonably capable of being associated with a particular consumer or household.

Personal information we collect and how we use and share it
Our receipt and collection of any consumer personal information is made in order for us to provide our services.

The personal information we have collected from consumers in the last 12 months and, for each category of personal information collected, the categories of sources from which that information was collected, the business or commercial purposes for which the information was collected, and the categories of third parties with whom we shared the personal information, are described above in Sections “PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT”, “METHOD OF COLLECTION” and “PROCESSORS AND PROCESSING OUT OF EU”.

Sale of personal information
We do not sell your Personal Information.

Your rights and choices
CCPA provides consumers with specific rights regarding their personal information:

  • The right to know about the personal information we collect about you and how it is used and shared;
  • The right to delete personal information collected (with some exceptions);
  • The right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information; and
  • The right to non-discrimination for exercising their CCPA rights.

This means that you have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. In addition, you have the right to ask us to delete personal information collected from you, subject to certain exceptions, e.g. when keeping the information is necessary for us to:

  • Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information;
  • Provide a service that you requested or otherwise perform our contract with you;
  • Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for these activities; identify problems and repair them;
  • Comply with our legal obligations under other laws or exercise any of our legal rights;
  • Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the purpose for or the context in which you provided it.

We cannot discriminate against you for exercising a CCPA right.

Consistent with California law, if you choose to exercise your applicable CCPA rights, we won’t charge you different prices or provide you with a different quality of services. If we ever offer a financial incentive or product enhancement that is contingent upon you providing your personal information, we will not do so unless the benefits to you are reasonably related to the value of the personal information that you provide to us.
