Privacy Policy

We ensure the correct legal ground for processing of data for each specific purpose is used in each specific case. Atlas Antibodies ensures all data subjects are well informed in a proactive manner about all different processing purposes that Atlas Antibodies undertakes with collected personal data.

If consent is used as legal ground for processing of personal data it shall be unambiguous, informed and allowing customers to withdraw their consent. If legitimate interest is used as legal ground, data subjects shall be sufficiently informed about such purpose and be allowed to object in a user friendly matter.

Atlas Antibodies will not retain personal data longer than is legally required or necessary for each explicit and legitimate purpose that the data is processed for.

When personal data is no longer necessary to fulfil the explicit purpose in question, which legitimised its original collection and processing, we shall permanently delete such data.

We will keep personal data accurate and reasonably up-to-date. We will provide user friendly measures for data subjects to obtain information and copies about the personal data processed about them and to correct inaccuracies.

We will provide personal data only to authorities to the extent required by law or with the data subject permission and in accordance with predefined approved processes.
