7. What data is processed in CP?
We process different types of information. Each category of data is explained in depth below and the processing principles.
Contact Data: Your first name, last name, email address, and job title are visible in the CP and may be shared with App users (e.g., when an invitation is sent). We obtained your data from the HP, who provided the information for which users should have accounts created in the CP by us. We may send information related to service provision to your email address and phone number. This may also include CP notifications. For example, you might receive a message with a confirmation code. You may also receive system messages via email. We do not use your contact details to send spam, nor do we sell this data.
Legal basis for processing: Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Communication is related to the proper functioning of the Application and the provision of services by the Healthcare Provider. Vitala processes data based on a data processing agreement concluded with the data controller.You can change your phone number and email address in the application settings. Data prior to the change is stored in connection with the records of SMS or email messages sent to you.
Deleting your Account in the CP will not result in the deletion of data unless the HP confirms the permanent deletion of the data. Remember that the data controller is the HP and certain data may be needed to demonstrate compliance with legal obligations regarding data retention or in connection with access to the services you provide or for the defense, pursuit, or establishment of legal claims.
Support Data: If you contact us for support or to lodge a complaint, we may collect your email address or telephone number and technical or other information from you through log files and other technologies, some of which may qualify as Personal Data (e.g., IP address). Such information will be used for the purposes of troubleshooting and technical support in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You provide your data voluntarily.
Legal basis for processing by Vitala is article 6.1.f of the GDPR. The legitimate interest lies in providing you with assistance in connection with the operation of the CP. Please remember that we do not provide support in any other scope than issues related to the operation/non-operation/problems with functionalities in the CP.
Data is obtained directly from you (your email address or phone number, or any other information you provide) or in connection with your actions in the CP (related to actions you take to verify a problem). Remember, we never ask for your login credentials, financial, or medical information. Never provide such information.
Communication with the support department is recorded, meaning that, under the right of control, it can be verified by us in terms of how the consultant provided assistance. We do not offer telephone support.
From the moment you contact us until your issue is resolved, the data is processed for the primary purpose of providing you with support. After providing you with support, the data is processed for secondary purposes, such as archiving our actions to assist you. The data is stored for the purpose of verifying the quality of service provided to you and for establishing, investigating, or resolving legal claims. Please note that we do not retain data beyond 24 months (after this period, it is deleted). After this period, if you file claims with us regarding technical support, we will not be able to assist you.
The data is processed within the European Economic Area. We do not profile you. The recipients of the data can only be authorised employees or contractors who provide services for us, especially IT solution providers and technical support representatives. More information can be found in 9 point.

This information is used to analyse overall trends and help to resolve technical issues.
We do not monitor the activity of a specific user. We do not profile users. CP improvement is based on statistical analysis. However, if you contact us for technical support, we may track your activity if necessary and related to providing you with support. We do not, however, interfere with any data you have entered. We can only check what action may have caused a specific error in the CP.

The statistics only consist in counting the number of total clicks in the App, loading time, etc.
Data is obtained directly from you. We emphasize that statistical data does not contain personal information and cannot be linked to a specific individual. However, your actions in the CP are recorded in the form of logs and are associated with your IP address.

8. Your rights
Your rights include:
- The right to know who is processing personal data, for what purpose and why.
You've been informed in point 7 who processes your data in the App and how. We've specified in which cases we act as the data controller and in which cases as the data processor.
- The right to access the personal data held by an organisation free of charge, and to receive a copy in an accessible format.
We provide access to data through the App. You can also contact us to verify the specific data we process. Remember that Vitala is the data controller only for support data and technology data. In all other aspects, your Healthcare Provider is the data administrator, and you can seek support from them for access to data.
- The right to object to an organisation processing personal data without consent, unless there is a higher priority public interest. The right to object at any time to direct advertising, i.e. advertising sent directly to the recipient.
We do not send you any advertisements, and we do not process data based on your consent. Similarly, the data controller does not process your App data based on your consent and does not send any advertisements. If you receive an advertisement from your Healthcare Provider or inappropriate information through the App, please contact us. We emphasise that such actions are not allowed in the App. Please note that recommendations or prescriptions for medications, supplements, or other products provided by your Healthcare Provider do not constitute advertising.
- The right to have data corrected if they are incorrect, incomplete, or untrue when they are processed by an organisation.
You can modify your data in the App at any time. Some data entered by your Healthcare Provider may not be changeable by you in the App. Contact your Healthcare Provider to change such data. Please remember that certain data may not be changed due to historical events and the obligation to maintain medical documentation. Your Healthcare Provider will inform you in detail if they refuse to change any data.
- The right to have data deleted, which is also referred to as the right to be forgotten. This right is applicable if a person’s data is no longer needed or is being processed illegally.
We have the right to refuse data deletion under Article 17.3.e of the GDPR.

The relevant responsibility lies with the data controller. Vitala has implemented a process for handling data breaches or privacy violations, including assessing the impact of such breaches, in accordance with ENISA guidelines. This allows us to determine whether a data breach is of high, medium, or low severity. We also investigate privacy violations. In the case of data where we act as a processor, the data controller will be informed within the agreed-upon timeframe specified in the data processing agreement. Notification to the supervisory authority or data subjects may also occur if necessary. Regarding data for which Vitala is the data controller, appropriate actions will be taken after assessing the impact of the breach, including its severity.
- The right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority.
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement, if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to them violates the GDPR.The supervisory authority, due to Vitala's registered office, is The Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection.
