The General Data Protection Regulation 16/679

an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person

Privacy statement
What is the lawful reason We use to process personal data?
The four lawful reasons Monwell uses to process personal data are set out in Article 6 of the Regulation. Processing will only be lawful if and to the extent that at least one of the following applies:
- • the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes (Article 6 (1) (a) (Consent);
- • processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract (Contract Performance);
- • processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation which We are subject to (Legal Obligations);
- • processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the data subject is a child (Article 6 (1) (f) (Legitimate Interest).
Consent
Where We process personal data as a result of data subject consent, We ensure that consent is freely given, specific and informed, and established by a clear affirmative act. Where consent is withdrawn, we have set out (below) how this may be undertaken by the data subject.
Contract Performance
Where We enter into a contract with third parties, processing of personal data may, as a matter of course, be necessary in order to execute such contract or take pre-contract preparation steps.
Legal Obligations
Where We have legal obligations which apply to Monwell, processing of personal data may be required by law.
Legitimate Interest
Where We process personal data as it is necessary for the purpose of our legitimate interests, We do so on the basis of a balanced evaluation of our interests and the rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection. Presently, We have concluded that the way We manage the processing of personal data results in a cumulation of data subject protections which show that the balance is in favour of Monwell being able to rely on Article 6.1(f) of the Regulation as a lawful reason to process personal data.
Your right to request that We stop processing personal data for our legitimate interests and withdrawal of your consent
As required by the Regulation, consent should be as easy to withdraw, as it is to give. Data subjects may request that Monwell does not process your personal data, at any time. You may contact us to withdraw your consent using the contact details at the end of this privacy statement, using the following statement:
Withdrawal of consent
I [STATE YOUR NAME] hereby withdraw my consent for Monwell Limited to process my personal data.

We only keep personal data for as long as is necessary in order to undertake this purpose. We are committed to ensuring that the information We collect and use is appropriate for this purpose, and does not constitute an invasion of the data subject’s right to privacy.

Monwell may pass your personal data on to third-party service providers contracted to Monwell. In these circumstances, the third party may be another controller, processor or sub-processor.
Where the third party is a processor or a sub-processor, they are obliged to keep your details securely, and to use them only to fulfil their contractual obligations to Monwell. When they no longer need your personal data to fulfil this service, they will dispose of the details in line with Monwell’s data retention policy.
Where Monwell is required to send personal data outside of the European Economic Area, in some cases to jurisdictions which the EU has not deemed to be ‘adequate’ for the purposes of the Regulation, Monwell will ensure that such transfers are undertaken in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Regulation.
How will Monwell use the personal data it collects about me?
Monwell will process personal data in a manner compatible with the Regulation. We will keep information accurate, up to date, and not keep it for longer than is necessary.
Monwell is required to retain certain information in accordance with the law, such as information needed for income tax and audit purposes. How long certain kinds of personal data should be kept may also be governed by specific business-sector requirements and agreed practices. Personal data may be held in addition to these periods depending on individual business needs.
