The fields marked with an asterisk (*) on the forms on PromoFarma’s online platforms are required to fulfil the established contractual or legal purposes.

Therefore, if the user does not provide these data, it will not be possible to register them on the website or process their requests.

If the user provides the details of any third party, it is understood that the user has obtained the consent of the latter and undertakes to inform them of the information contained in this clause, releasing PromoFarma of any liability in this regard. However, PromoFarma may carry out the necessary checks to confirm this, adopting the corresponding due diligence measures, in accordance with data protection regulations.

What is our legitimate basis for processing your personal data?

The legitimate basis on which PromoFarma processes user data is user registration on the different websites specified in the user consent form that is requested in each case.

Meanwhile, the legitimate basis for processing purchases of products or services made over the Websites, and the corresponding billing and shipping, is the execution of the contract.

The processing of data provided through the “Pharmaceutical queries” section is based on the legitimate interest of resolving the queries raised by users.

The processing of data for the purpose of sending electronic newsletters with offers, promotions and news related to our online platforms, marketing and/or advertising information, the compilation of anonymous statistical reports on the access and behavioural habits of website users and the creation of customer profiles using data related to the products and services purchased from PromoFarma are based on the company’s legitimate interest in carrying out said activities in accordance with current legislation.

The different consents obtained for the above-mentioned purposes are independent of each other and the user may therefore withdraw one or several of their consents without this affecting the others.

Furthermore, the user’s information may be used to comply with the different legal obligations of PromoFarma.
