At EPICA-DIPG, we are committed to the protection of privacy. In compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), please find the detailed information below regarding our practices in connection with the information we collect, use, and disclose through activities linked to our services, and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.
By providing Personal Information to us, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR PERSONAL DATA?
The responsible entity for your personal data is Teamit Research S.L. Our registered address is at Carrer de Sant Antoni Maria Claret, 167, 08025 Barcelona. We are the data controller of the data we collect from you, and as such, we control the ways your personal data is collected and the purposes for which your personal data is used.
PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU
Your privacy comes first, and we aim for the highest standard for data privacy, as introduced by GDPR. We may collect, process, and use your personal data through our website (when you request information or when you register/sign up for our newsletter), mailings, or through personal contacts and business cards.
We only collect basic personal data about you, which does not include any special types of information or sensitive data. Specifically, we may collect the following types of personal information:
- Information about user visits and use of this website (including IP address)
- Personal data freely provided by the user (name, job function, email address, phone number, and any other details specifically requested in registration forms or for newsletters)
- Other personal or sensitive information related to spontaneous forwarding of personal documents (e.g. Curriculum Vitae)
WHY WE NEED YOUR DATA AND WHAT WE DO WITH YOUR DATA
We collect and use your personal data only if we have a valid reason for doing so. According to the law, we may use your data for one or more of the following reasons:
- To respond to user inquiries and fulfil requests (e.g. newsletters, questions, and comments). The user’s email address may be added to our mailing list, and the user may receive email messages containing information about news or events related to EPICA-DIPG.
- To re-contact the user if EPICA-DIPG needs to do so (e.g. voluntary submission of personal documents such as CVs).
- To provide access to EPICA-DIPG reserved areas.
In summary, we need your basic personal data to provide you with the information you request from us, or to provide you with ongoing organisational, scientific activities, and event updates related to our project and services. We process personal data based on your consent.
We collect and process personal information needed to carry out any of our obligations arising from any contracts between you and us, on the legal basis of performance of a contract.
SHARING YOUR DATA
EPICA-DIPG does not share personally identifiable information with unrelated third parties not covered by this Privacy Policy without the user’s prior permission, except to the extent necessary to:

- Protect our rights, interests and property and the rights, interests and property of others
- Comply with laws or respond to judicial process
- Provide information to law enforcement agencies or for an investigation, as required or permitted by law
As far as these third parties have access to personal data in order to execute these processing activities, we have taken the required organisational and contractual measures to ensure that your personal data is processed exclusively for the purposes mentioned above.
WHERE EPICA-DIPG PROCESSES THE DATA
The data is processed at Teamit Research S.L. operating offices and in any other locations where the parties involved with the processing are based. For further information, please contact us at info@teamitresearch.com.
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR DATA
We keep your data only for as long as we need it. How long we need data depends on what we are using it for, whether that is to provide services to you, for our legitimate interests (described above), or to comply with the law.
Personal data we collect from you in order to provide our services will be kept for a maximum of 5 years before being deleted. We actively review the information we hold and, when there is no legal or business need to retain it, we delete it securely.
Personal data used for newsletter purposes will be kept until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive such communications. You may opt out at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in all newsletter emails.
