Privacy Policy1
The term “personal data” as used in this clause refers to information such as your name, birth date, e-mail or mailing address that can be used to identify you. Some of the services provided on this Site may require registration. When registering with us, you may need to complete certain fields (some are required and some are optional). This registration tells us who you are. In the event you chose to withhold certain personal data requested by us, it may not be possible for you to access certain parts of this Site and for us to respond to your query. Senn will not process your personal data without your consent. Senn only processes personal data for specific and limited purposes, which we inform you about when asking for your personal data. In processing your personal data, we will fully comply with internationally recognized standards of data protection. In doing so, we ensure compliance of our staff with strict standards of security and confidentiality. Senn will not make your personal data accessible to any third party. However, personal data may occasionally be transferred to a third party who actsfor or on behalf of Senn, or in connection with Senn’s business, for further processing in accordance with the purpose for which the personal data was originally collected. Senn will, wherever possible, endeavour to ensure that the obligation of non-disclosure and the intended use of the personal data are clearly indicated. Such third parties may operate different privacy policies. However, we endeavour to ensure that such third parties provide the same level of protection as Senn and, where appropriate, we will contractually require them to process personal data transferred only for the purpose expressly authorized by Senn. Nevertheless, it is expressly understood that we will not share any personal data about you that is sensitive (e.g. medical information) with third parties without your prior and explicit consent. You may always revoke your consent at a later time. If you revoke your consent, Senn may not be able to carry out certain requests made by you. However, Senn will, where practicable, inform third parties to whom your personal data has been transferred of your withdrawal of consent. (1 See also Senn’s Privacy Policy.)
We endeavour to ensure that your personal data is up-to-date, accurate and complete. You have the right to access and update your personal data or to require the deletion thereof. If you wish to access, correct or delete your personal data held by us, please contact our webmaster. Your request will be dealt with in a prompt and accurate manner and at no cost to you. Requests to delete personal data will be subject to any applicable legal and ethical reporting or document filing or retention obligations to which Senn must abide. In all other events, personal data will only be kept by Senn as long as is reasonably required for the processing of the purpose for which the personal data was collected and in accordance with any applicable legal or ethical reporting or documentation retention requirements. This Privacy Policy applies only to this Site to the exclusion of Third-Party Sites.
