We may disclose your personal data to certain third parties, as follows:

·         Legal compliance: We may disclose or allow government and law enforcement officials access to your personal data, in response to a subpoena, warrant or court order (or similar requirement), or in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Such disclosure or access may occur if we believe in good faith that: (a) we are legally compelled to do so; (b) disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding actual or suspected illegal activity, fraud, or other wrongdoing; or (c) such disclosure is required to protect our legitimate business interests, including the security or integrity of our Site, Products, and Services.

·         Service Providers: We may engage selected third-party companies and individuals to perform services complementary to our own. Such service providers may include hosting and server co-location, communications and content delivery networks (CDNs), data security, fraud detection and prevention, web analytics, e-mail distribution and monitoring, session, call or activity recording and analysis, remote access services, performance measurement, inbound meeting scheduling automation, data optimization and marketing, content providers, e-mail, voicemail, support and customer relation management systems, and our legal, financial and compliance advisors (collectively, “Service Providers”).

·         Advertising: When you visit our Site, we may enable third parties to use cookies and other trackers to show you ads on third-party websites that are more relevant to you. Under some data protection laws, like the CCPA and the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”), our disclosure of this data to third parties through cookies and other trackers for targeted advertising may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. Please see our Cookie Policy for more information about the types of cookies we use, or click “Cookie Settings” via the round blue icon at the bottom-left of your screen to set your preferences and opt out of the sale or sharing (for targeted advertising) of your data. We don’t have actual knowledge that we "sell" or "share" the personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.

9.   Data Subject Rights

If you wish to exercise your privacy rights under any applicable law (including the EU or UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the CCPA, the VCDPA, the Colorado Privacy Act, or the Connecticut Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring Act), you may do so by contacting us via this form or by email to [email protected].

Such rights may include – to the extent available to you under the laws that apply to you – the right to know or request access to specific pieces of personal data collected, categories of data collected and sources from whom it was collected, as well as the purposes of collecting it and categories of third parties to whom we have disclosed it; the right to request rectification or erasure of your personal data held with Itamar Medical; to restrict the processing of such data and to object to its processing (including the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your data for targeted advertising, as indicated below); to port such data; or the right to equal services and prices (e.g., freedom from discrimination).

Please note that we may require additional information, including certain personal data, in order to authenticate and process your request (including validating your name and the email you use when interacting with Itamar Medical). Such additional information may then be retained by us for legal purposes (e.g., as proof of the identity of the person submitting the request), in accordance with Section 4 above. You may also authorize another person or third party to submit a request to exercise your rights by providing written permission in conjunction with the submission of the requested information or by giving the third party your power of attorney. We will acknowledge your request and provide a follow-up substantive response within a time period permitted by applicable law. We may redact from the data which we will make available to you, any personal data related to other individuals.

You may opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising by clicking "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" (link located in the footer of our Site) or “Cookie Settings” via the round blue icon at the bottom-left of your screen, or by implementing the Global Privacy Control (GPC) (instructions on how to download and use GPC are available here).

Additionally, you have a right to lodge a complaint with a competent authority, such as the supervisory authority in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or of the alleged GDPR infringement, the UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office, or your State’s Attorney General (as applicable).

 

10.     Roles & responsibilities

Certain data protection laws and regulations, such as the EU or UK GDPR and the CCPA, typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing personal data: the “Data Controller” (or under the CCPA, “Business”), who determines the purposes and means of processing; and the “Data Processor” (or under the CCPA, “service provider”), who processes the data on behalf of the Data Controller.

Itamar Medical is the Data Controller of its Visitors and Business Contacts’ personal data, and assumes the responsibilities of a Data Controller (or a Business), solely to the extent applicable under law and as set forth in this Policy. In such instances, our Service Providers (as detailed in Section 5) processing such data on our behalf will assume the role of Data Processor (or “service provider” under the CCPA).
