1. What personal data is processed and why?

1.1 The purpose of this website is to help people who are dependent on heroin and/or other opioids and their families by providing them with practical information about opioid dependence and to clearly understand the options available about how it can be treated. The website is thus for informational purposes and we will only collect and process personal data that your web browser makes available whenever you visit the Camurus website, including Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser language, geographical location data, date and time, cookies, and information about accessed pages.

2. What is the legal basis for processing of your personal data?

2.1 Camurus only processes your personal data where we have legal grounds for the processing. The processing of your personal data for the purpose described in Section 1 above is based on Camurus’ legitimate interest, as we wish to make the website available to you and to improve, develop and enhance the usability of the site in order to satisfy your needs and improve our support of the Buvidal website. We have performed a balance of interest assessment and have concluded that our legitimate interest in processing your personal data for the purpose of improving and developing the website as described above, outweighs your potential interest in not having your personal data processed for this purpose. You are always entitled to object to this assessment.
You can read more about your rights below.

2.2 The processing of your personal data for the purpose described in Section 1.2 is, if applicable, based on Camurus’ legal obligations under the GDPR.

If you contact us through this website we may also share your personal data with Microsoft, who provides IT-services to us where your personal data (e.g. email address) may be stored.

3.3 We will not transfer your personal data to countries outside of EU/EEA, which may have a lower level of protection than within the EU/EEA.

4. For how long is your personal data stored?

We store the personal data only as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which the personal data has been collected or as follows from Section 6.2 below.

5. What are your rights?

5.1 Camurus AB, Reg. No. 556667-9105, address Ideon Science Park, 223 70 Lund, Sweden, is the controller of the processing of your personal data. This means that we are responsible for your personal data being processed correctly and in accordance with applicable laws. 5.2 You are entitled to know what personal data we are processing regarding you, and you can request a copy of such data.

If you have given your consent to processing of your personal data for an explicit purpose you may always withdraw your consent. If you want to withdraw your consent, you may contact us through the contact information provided in Section 5.3. You also have the right to object to certain processing of your personal data, and request that the processing of your personal data be limited. Please note that limitation or deletion of your personal data may result in functions on the website not working as intended. You are also under certain circumstances entitled to extract your personal data in a machine-readable format and to transfer the personal data to another controller. There may be conditions or limitations to your rights. It is therefore not certain that you for example have the right of data portability in the specific case since this depends on the specific circumstances of the processing activity. 5.3 If you have questions regarding how we process personal data concerning you or wish to exercise your rights in accordance with Section 5.2, you are most welcome to contact us at privacy@camurus.com or by mail to the address above. 5.4 If you have any objections or complaints about the way we process your personal data, you have the right to file a complaint with the applicable Data Protection Authority.
