Important information and who we are.

Purpose of this privacy notice

This privacy policy provides you with information on how Physiolutions collects and processes your personal data through your use of our website, https://physiolutions.com,  as well as other possible portals, apps or other data collection means which make reference to this policy. For purposes of this privacy policy, the terms “user”, “participant”, “customer”, “you” and “your” are meant to refer to the individuals about whom we may collect data.

Our data operations and privacy policy endeavor to comply with the latest US and international privacy and data protection regulations.  These regulations include those promulgated under the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) where applicable. While GDPR regulations apply only to residents of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), we have decided to adopt and implement these regulations for all individuals who submit personal data to Physiolutions. By doing this, along with implementing strict data protection standards from other jurisdictions such as California, we provide you with expansive rights with respect to any personal data that we collect from you. Some of these rights include the following:

  1. The right to have Physiolutions permanently delete any of your personal data.
  2. The right to review any personal data that we’ve collected from you.
  3. The right to voluntarily and affirmatively “opt-in” to any newsletters, emails, or marketing materials sent to you by Physiolutions.
  4. The right to receive a copy of your personal data.
  5. The right to have control and access over your personal data.
  6. The right to have your personal data protected, transferred and stored in compliance with GDPR’s data protection requirements.
  7. The right to have your personal data automatically destroyed after it is no longer being actively used by Physiolutions.
  8. The right to only receive communications from Physiolutions pursuant to a “Lawful Basis” under GDPR. The two most common Lawful Bases pursuant to which you may receive Physiolutions communications are: (i) that you requested, subscribed or affirmatively consented to the receipt of the communications, and (ii) the communications are necessary for Physiolutions’ “legitimate interests” that are not overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms that require protection of personal data.
  9. The right, if applicable, to have Physiolutions appoint a Data Protection Officer (“DPO”) to manage Physiolutions’ compliance with GDPR and to respond within 72 hours to any inquiries, complaints, or requests that you make regarding your personal data. At any time, you may contact our DPO at privacyphysiolutions.com.
  10. As required by GDPR, our authorized subscribers have affirmatively and voluntarily “opted in” pursuant to GDPR requirements to receive newsletters, emails, and marketing communications from Physiolutions. If you believe that you did not opt in to receive these communications from Physiolutions, please contact our DPO as soon as possible at privacyphysiolutions.com and we will arrange for you to either affirmatively opt in or not receive any further communications from us. Additionally, all our newsletters, emails to subscribers, and other related communications contain an opt-out/unsubscribe button at the bottom. At any time, you may unsubscribe from all Physiolutions communications by clicking on the button.
  11. To the extent that the CCPA or other reasonable international, federal, or state laws are more restrictive than GDPR with respect to protecting your personal data and privacy, we strive to comply with such stricter regulations. If for any reason you believe we are not in compliance with any provision of these laws, please advise us immediately in writing so that we can review the laws in question and take immediate corrective action if necessary.  You can advise us at privacyphysiolutions.com.

We take your personal data and privacy seriously. If you have any questions regarding your rights, your personal data, or Physiolutions’ obligations, please contact Physiolutions’ Data Protection Officer at privacyphysiolutions.com.

Your rights under GDPR are further described below in Section 11. Some of your rights described in this policy may be subject to certain rights of Physiolutions such as legal, accounting, and archiving requirements.

You have a right to obtain details of the mechanism under which your personal data is transferred outside of the EU by contacting privacyphysiolutions.com.

  1. Children

The website is not for use by children under the age of 16 years and Physiolutions does not knowingly collect, store, share or use the personal data of children under 16 years. If you are under the age of 16 years, please do not provide any personal data, even if prompted by the website to do so. If you are under the age of 16 years and you have provided personal data, please ask your parent(s) or guardian(s) to notify Physiolutions and Physiolutions will delete all such personal data immediately.

  1. Marketing Emails

If you wish to opt-out of receiving marketing communications, please use the ‘unsubscribe’ link provided in our emails, or otherwise contact us directly and we will stop sending you communications.

  1. Security

Physiolutions strives to safeguard and protect your personal data from unauthorized access, improper use or disclosure, unauthorized modification or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, and Physiolutions utilizes and maintains certain reasonable processes, systems, and technologies to do so. However, you acknowledge that no transmission over the Internet is completely secure or error-free, and that these processes, systems, and technologies utilized and maintained by Physiolutions are subject to compromise. Accordingly, we cannot be held responsible for unauthorized or unintended access that is beyond our reasonable control.

  1. Retention of Your Personal Data

We apply a general rule of keeping personal data only for as long as required to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. We also retain your personal data for a period of time corresponding to a statute of limitations, for example to maintain an accurate record of your transactions with us including licenses that you have entered with us.

However, in some circumstances we may retain personal data for other periods of time, for instance where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, tax and accounting requirements, or if required to do so by a legal process, legal authority, or other governmental entity having authority to make the request, for so long as required.

At any time, you can request our DPO to permanently delete your data not subject to legal or other requirements.  You can also always unsubscribe to our emails, in which case we will delete your personal information other than licenses and other matters that survive your request for deletion.

  1. External Links

The website may contain links to third party sites. Since Physiolutions does not control nor is responsible for the privacy practices of those websites, we encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party sites. This policy applies solely to personal data collected by our website or in the course of our business activities.

  1. Your Rights

Under applicable law, you may have the following rights:

  • Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
  • Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
  • Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
  • Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
  • Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
  • Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
  • Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

For further information regarding your data privacy rights under GDPR, please see the following link: https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/individual-rights/.

  1. Dispute Resolution and Other Legal Matters

You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence, place of work or place of alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes applicable law and Physiolutions is subject to the jurisdiction of such supervisory authority.

Further, in accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Physiolutions commits to promptly resolve complaints about privacy and our collection or use of personal information. Individuals with questions or concerns about the use of their personal data should contact us at: privacyphysiolutions.com and identify the company or other organization with whom they are affiliated or for whom their data was collected, if collection was for an Physiolutions client.

If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, we will have the matter submitted to our US-based third-party dispute resolution provider, the American Arbitration Association in Miami, Florida.  If GDPR or other applicable laws exclusively apply to the dispute and require us to pay for the arbitration, we shall do so.

Governing Law. By choosing to visit our website, engage our professional services, view or download content, or provide information to us, you agree that any dispute over privacy or the terms contained in this Privacy Policy will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida and the United States of America. You also agree to abide by any limitation on damages contained in our Terms of Use, license agreements, or other agreements that we have with you.
