Our use of Data
For purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018, Patient Intelligence Panel Ltd is the “data controller”.
We will retain any Data you submit indefinitely.
Unless we are obliged or permitted by law to do so, and subject to any third party disclosures specifically set out in this policy, your Data will not be disclosed to third parties. This includes our affiliates and / or other companies within our group.

Third party websites and services
Patient Intelligence Panel Ltd may, from time to time, employ the services of other parties for dealing with certain processes necessary for the operation of the Website. The providers of such services do not have access to certain personal Data provided by Users of this Website.
We may share your information with any companies in our group of Patient Intelligence Panel Ltd for internal reporting purposes.
We may share your information with other organisations:
who provide services to us so that they can provide the services we request. This might include IT service providers who support our IT systems, for example;
who we provide services to so that they can benefit from the services we provide. Whilst we will, where possible, take steps to ensure that you cannot be identified from that information, as we cannot ever fully understand what information our clients may already hold about you, it may be that they can link the anonymous information that we provide, to other information which then enables them to identify you. By way of example:
if you have given us your Twitter username we may share tweets posted by you and your followers to third parties and, while we will not disclose your Twitter handle, it may be that either (a) information contained within those feeds alone could identify you or a third party or (b) those tweets could be linked with other information the third party already holds which then enables them to identify you or someone else; or
we may exchange what we consider to be anonymous or pseudonymised information about our panellists with third parties who will use it for analysis purposes, to enhance their own databases, to model audiences and track the efficiency of campaigns, and to gain an insight into behaviours so that they can develop strategies which add value to their, or their clients’ businesses. For this purpose, we may also collect anonymised information from third parties which we can use to identify you. As our clients and, in turn their clients, will have their own databases and other sources of information, it may be that they could link the anonymous information we provide with information they already have and therefore identify you; or
we may provide limited personal details to trusted third party data processors for the purposes of combining our data with other third party data sources. The final combined data set will be anonymised and non-attributable.
if we sell or buy any business or assets, (as we may share your data with the prospective seller or buyer);
if we or substantially all of our company assets are acquired by another party, in which case your information will be one of the transferred assets; or
if we have to share your information to comply with legal or regulatory requirements (or we reasonably believe that we need to disclose your information for such purposes), or if we have to enforce or apply our Terms and Conditions of Use or any other terms and conditions or agreements or to protect our rights, property or our customers etc.
Other than as listed above, we will not rent, sell or otherwise disclose your information without your consent.
Please bear in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal data online – for example on message boards, on a blog or chat area – that information will be viewed by others.
