10. YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Depending on the type of Processing, within the framework set by the RGPD regulation, you have a number of rights regarding the Processing of your Personal Data, which are set by the regulation and may include, in summary, the following rights:
Right not to provide us with your Personal Data:
Please note, however, that in this situation, we may be unable to provide you with the full range of our products and services - for example, we may be unable to process your orders or book appointments on our website without the necessary information and contact details.
Right to object in the case of processing that is based on the legal grounds of legitimate interest or public interest:
You may at any time object to our Processing of your Personal Data. Your request to object will be handled expeditiously and we will cease the Processing to which you object. Nevertheless, we reserve the right not to cease the Processing in question if:
- we can demonstrate that we have legitimate and compelling reasons to Process your Personal Data that override your personal interests;
- we Process your Personal Data for the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending a legal claim.
Right to withdraw consent:
If we have obtained your consent to Process your Personal Data for certain Processes other than those for which no consent is required, you may withdraw that consent at any time and we will cease the particular Processing to which you had consented, unless we consider that there is another reason justifying our continued Processing of your Personal Data for that purpose, in which case we will inform you of this.
Please note that such withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of any Processing undertaken prior to the date on which we received notification of such withdrawal, nor does it prevent the Processing of your Personal Data based on other available legal grounds.
Right of access:
You have the right to request access to or copies of your Personal Data, together with information about the nature of the Processing and the persons who may have access to such Personal Data.
Where we provide you with access to Personal Data we hold about you, we will not charge you for that access unless your request is manifestly unfounded or abusive. If you request further copies of this information, we may charge you a reasonable administrative fee where permitted by law. Where permitted by law, we may refuse your request. If we do so, we will always give reasons for our refusal.
Right to erasure:
You have the right to request that we erase your Personal Data under certain circumstances.
In principle, the Personal Data in question must meet one of the following criteria:
- your Personal Data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was originally collected and/or processed;
- you have withdrawn your consent to the Processing of your Personal Data and there is no other valid reason for us to continue Processing it;
- your Personal Data have, by extraordinary means, been processed unlawfully;
- in the event that we Process your Personal Data because we believe it is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests, if you object and we were unable to demonstrate a compelling legitimate reason for continuing the Processing.
We would be entitled to refuse to respond to your request for any of the following reasons: - exercise the right to freedom of expression and information ;
- comply with legal obligations;
- for public health reasons in the public interest;
- for archival, research or statistical purposes;
- exercise or defend a legal right.
When we respond to a valid request for erasure of Personal Data, we will take all appropriate practical steps to delete the Personal Data in question.
Right to limit Processing:
You have the right to request that we limit the Processing of your Personal Data in certain circumstances. This means that we may only continue to retain your Personal Data and may only carry out further Processing activities in one of the following circumstances: (i) resolution of one of the circumstances listed below; (ii) your consent; or (iii) further Processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, the protection of the rights of another person, or for important reasons of public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
The cases in which you are entitled to request that we restrict the Processing of your Personal Data are as follows: - when you challenge the accuracy of the Personal Data we Process about you. In this case, we will limit the Processing of your Personal Data to verifying its accuracy;
- when you object to our Processing of your Personal Data for our legitimate interests. You may request that Personal Data be restricted while we verify our reasons for Processing your Personal Data;
- when your Personal Data has, extraordinarily, been unlawfully Processed by us, but you simply prefer that we restrict its Processing rather than delete it;
when we no longer need to Process your Personal Data but you request it in order to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
If we have disclosed your Personal Data to third parties, we will inform them of the limited Processing unless this is impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Of course, we will inform you before we lift any limitation on the Processing of your Personal Data.
Right of rectification:
You also have the right to request that we rectify inaccurate or incomplete Personal Data that we hold about you. If we have disclosed such Personal Data to third parties, we will inform them of the rectification unless this would be impossible or involve disproportionate effort. Where applicable, we will also inform you to which third party or parties we have disclosed inaccurate or incomplete Personal Data. If we believe it is reasonable not to comply with your request, we will provide you with the reasons for this decision.
Right to obtain and portability of Personal Data that we process on the basis of your consent or in the performance of a contract:
If you wish, you have the right to obtain and transfer your Personal Data from one Processor to another. In order for you to do so, we will provide you with your Personal Data in a commonly used, structured, machine-readable format. This right of portability applies to the following Personal Data: (i) Personal Data that we Process automatically (i.e. without human intervention) and (ii) Personal Data that you provide.
Right to complain to a Data Protection Authority:
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a Data Protection Authority, and in particular with the Data Protection Authority of the EU Member State in which you reside or work or in which the alleged breach occurred. This does not affect your rights under applicable laws and regulations. To exercise one or more of these rights, to ask us a question relating to these rights or any other provision of this Policy, or to ask us about the Processing of your Personal Data, please use the contact information provided in Section 13 of our Policy. Please note that:
- we may request proof of your identity before granting your requests;
- where your request requires additional fact-finding or analysis (e.g., to determine the lawfulness of Processing), we will consider your request as promptly and reasonably as possible before making our decision.

All persons having access to your Personal Information are bound by a confidentiality obligation and may be subject to disciplinary action and/or other sanctions if they fail to comply with this obligation.
12. CONFLICT RESOLUTION
Although LOXAMED has taken all appropriate measures to protect your Personal Information, no transmission or storage technology is completely foolproof.
However, LOXAMED is committed to ensuring that your Personal Information is protected. If you have reason to believe that the security of your Personal Information has been compromised or that it has been subject to unlawful use or misuse, you are encouraged to contact LOXAMED at the following address
- by mail at the following address LOXAMED Legal Department - 256 rue Nicolas Coatanlem - 56850 Caudan (France), or
