Overview of the GDPR

What is the GDPR?

Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of this data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) hereinafter referred to as the Regulation or the GDPR is the statutory implementation of the rights of natural persons in connection with the processing of personal data. The GDPR also regulates, i.a., obligations of the data controller and processors.

If we mention detailed provisions anywhere without referring to specific acts, we mean the GDPR.

Learn more by checking the legislator’s website. The following information is an interpretation of the provisions, not a set rule of their understanding.

What Is Personal Data?

Personal data is any information that may be used to identify a natural person.

Objectives of the Regulation.

The objective of the Regulation is to standardize the protection of fundamental rights and freedoms of natural persons in respect of personal data processing and to ensure free flow of personal data between Member States.

What Is Processing of Personal Data?

Processing of personal data is any and all activities that we may perform on the data, i.e. collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.

What Is Profiling?

Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or movements.

Data Subject Rights.

Each and every natural person whose personal data is processed has the following rights.

  1. Right to transparent information and communication (Article 12 of the GDPR)

The controller provides all information related to personal data processing to the data subject in a concise, transparent, intelligible, and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language, in particular any information addressed specifically to a child.

  1. Right to be informed when personal data is collected from the data subject (Article 13 of the GDPR)

The controller provides directly the person from whom it obtains personal data with all the information determined in the GDPR.

  1. Right to be informed when data has not been obtained from the data subject (Article 14 of the GDPR)

When personal data has not been obtained from the data subject (e.g. from an assignee, from another database, etc.), the controller provides the data subject with the information determined in the GDPR.

  1. Right to access data (Article 15 of the GDPR)

Each and every natural person has the right to obtain information on their personal data processed by the controller at no cost.

  1. Right to rectification (Article 16 of the GDPR)

The data subject has the right to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them.

  1. Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) (Article 17 of the GDPR)

If there are no longer legal grounds for processing personal data, the controller is required to delete unnecessary data of a natural person.

  1. Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 of the GDPR)

Restriction of processing relates to the cases where processing is disputed but there are compelling reasons for data storage. A natural person may request that we restrict processing of their personal data only to its storage or performance of activities agreed with them, if, in their opinion, we have incorrect data about them or we process them with no legitimate grounds; or if they do not want us to remove it because they need it to establish, assert, or defend claims; or for the duration of their objection to data processing.

  1. Right to data portability (Article 20 of the GDPR)

Exercising the right to data portability allows – if it is technically possible – to transfer data from the IT system of one controller to the IT system of another controller.

  1. Right to object (Article 21 of the GDPR)

The right to object is exercised against processing your data on the basis of compelling legitimate grounds for purposes other than direct marketing, as well as when processing is necessary for us to perform a task carried out in the public interest or to exercise public authority entrusted to us. You indicate your particular situation to us, which justifies the cessation of the processing covered by the objection. We will cease to process your data for these purposes, unless we prove that the grounds for processing your data override your rights or that your data is necessary for us to establish, assert, or defend claims. As a consequence your data will not be allowed to be processed for the purposes covered by the objection, i.e. the controller will no longer be allowed to process the data of the objecting person.

  1. The right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling (Article 22 of the GDPR)

The data subject being a natural person has the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affects them.

  1. Right to withdraw consent to process your personal data

You have the right to withdraw your consent to process your personal data, which we process on the basis on your consent, at any time. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on your consent before its withdrawal.

We undertake every effort to precisely define your rights under a given activity, in particular regarding personal data. However, at this point, an important issue should be mentioned – the rights are not absolute and may not apply to every data processing activity.

Should you believe we have violated the GDPR provisions, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Supervisory Authority, which is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office. Before you decide to do so, we would appreciate if you contacted us to find out which of your personal data we have and how we process it.

If you have questions regarding processing your data or exercising your rights by WPD Pharmaceuticals sp. z o.o., please contact the Data Protection Officer gdpr@wpdpharmaceuticals.com
