GDPR privacy notice
The purpose of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is to protect all European Union (“EU”) citizens from privacy and data breaches by allowing citizens to maintain control of the personal data kept and processed by organizations, which includes MEDX. The GDPR also protects the personal data of individuals, regardless of citizenry, in the EU. As a result, this site employs technology to be served, at a minimum, to visitors accessing the site from all EU geographies and at a minimum of once per month. At that time, the visitor is given the option to accept or decline the placement of cookies on the visitor’s device and, in cases where the visitor chooses neither option, MEDX will assume consent is given to access the visitor’s Information.
MEDX also gathers personally identifiable Information.
Certain areas of the site may require that users provide personally identifiable Information (such as name, e-mail address, and phone). In addition, when registering to use certain services on the site such as e-mail, project submission, or to receive newsletters or specifically targeted Information (“services”), MEDX may require users to provide additional personally identifiable Information.
MEDX does not knowingly collect personally identifiable Information from children (defined herein as minors younger than thirteen years of age) without obtaining parental consent. Before registering for an account to use the services of the site, MEDX requests that all minors have their parents read the Privacy Policy and continue their involvement throughout the registration process.
MEDX does not control the acts of this site’s members or visitors. In the event visitors encounter any user on this site who is improperly collecting or using Information provided by the site’s members or visitors, please contact [email protected].
How MEDX Uses/Does Not Use Gathered Information
Please take some time to become familiar with the different ways MEDX uses the Information gathered. Keep in mind that, while MEDX encourages all third parties involved to adhere to this site’s Privacy Policy and to otherwise handle personal Information in a responsible manner, MEDX cannot and does not assume any responsibility for any actions or omissions of third parties, including the manner in which they use Information received either from MEDX or independently. Nevertheless, in the event users encounter any third party associated with, or who claims association with MEDX, who is improperly collecting or using personal Information, please contact [email protected] who will forward the message to the third party.
Use of non-personally identifiable Information.MEDX uses non-personally identifiable Information in aggregate form to build higher quality, more useful online services by performing statistical analyses of the collective characteristics and behavior of the site visitors, and by measuring demographics and interests regarding specific areas of the site.
The site may contain links to other Internet Web site, including co-branded or other affiliated sites that may or may not be owned or operated by MEDX. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, MEDX is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such sites, including such sites’ use of any Information (such as IP number, browser type, or operating system) collected when visitors to the site click through links to those sites. Even though such Information might not identify the user personally, users should be familiar with the privacy practices of those other sites.
Use of personally identifiable Information.MEDX provides notice to potential registrants of this site whose personally identifiable Information will be collected during the registration or other processes including the voluntarily submission of any form on the site. Such notice is provided simultaneously with the user’s registration on this site; moreover, this policy itself serves as notice that such Information is collected under those circumstances. Although users may not “opt out” of the registration process and still receive access to the services, users may choose to “opt out” of receiving promotional materials from MEDX and/or other business partners. If the user does not “opt out” of receiving such promotional materials, MEDX reserves the right to release user’s personally identifiable registration Information to third parties who provide goods or services that MEDX believes may be of interest to the user. If the user decides to discontinue receiving promotional Information from such third parties, please contact those third parties directly, or contact MEDX at [email protected].
We collect Information from individuals only as necessary in the exercise of our legitimate interests, functions, and responsibilities. Examples and rationale for these include, but are not limited to:
- Project submission. In cases where you submitted to us material relating to a proposed project for us to invest in, your Information and the material you provided are collected and retained by us until you ask us to remove your Information and material from our databases.
- Site or content access.In cases where you access restricted content which requires your subscription (i.e., to log on as a user), your Information is collected and retained by us until you ask us to remove your Information from our databases and further, when the restricted content is supplied by a Third Party, you should assume your Information will be given to the Third Party in exchange for your access to that content.
- Contractual work.MEDX may share information with Third Parties who have entered into contracts with MEDX to perform functions on behalf of MEDX, subject to the obligation of confidentiality and safeguarding from unauthorized disclosure.
MEDX limits its own e-mail contact and solicitations to those users who have not “opted out” of receiving such communications. The solicitations are limited in that they, among other things, will clearly indicate the originator of the e-mail and provide the user with a method of “opting out” of receiving future communications of a similar nature.
Finally, MEDX may use individual members’ data to “pre-populate” forms, which are displayed for the purpose of collecting individual data by MEDX. In no case does pre-populating a form transfer any data to any third party. Only if the user voluntarily requests that such data be transferred will any transfer take place – for example, if/when a user clicks a “submit form” button or other button.
MEDX reserves the right to release any and all Information contained within access logs concerning any visitor when that visitor is in violation of MEDX’s “Terms of Service” agreement or other published guidelines, or partakes (or is reasonably suspected of partaking) in any illegal activity, even without a subpoena, warrant, or other court order, and to release such Information in response to discovery requests, or in response to any circumstance in which MEDX, in its sole discretion, deems an emergency. MEDX cooperates with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who may be using its servers or services for illegal activities. MEDX also reserves the right to report any suspected illegal activity to law enforcement for investigation or prosecution.
MEDX will post the relevant privacy Information in the official rules and/or registration area for any promotions it sponsors. That privacy Information, to the extent it conflicts with this Privacy Policy, will govern that particular promotion.

Security
All Information gathered on the site is stored within a controlled database accessible only to MEDX to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of the Information under its control. However, as effective as any security measure implemented by MEDX may be, no security system is impenetrable. MEDX cannot guarantee the security of its database, nor can it guarantee that the Information supplied by users will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the Internet. Questions regarding this Privacy Policy should be directed to [email protected].
Retention and Destruction of your Information
Your Information will be retained by MEDX in accordance with applicable state laws, and will be destroyed upon your request unless applicable law requires destruction after the expiration of an applicable retention period. The manner of destruction shall be appropriate to preserve and ensure the confidentiality of your Information given the level of sensitivity, value, and criticality to MEDX.
Your Rights
Where authorized and subject to all applicable laws, you may have the right to request access to, a copy of, rectification, restriction in the use of, or erasure of your Information. You also have the right to withdraw consent to the use of your Information, without affecting the legitimacy of MEDX’s use of the Information prior to receipt of your request.
Information created in the European Union will be transferred out of the European Union to MEDX. If you feel MEDX has not complied with applicable foreign laws regulating such Information, you have the right to file a complaint with the appropriate supervisory authority in the European Union.
If users would like to have personally identifiable Information changed or removed from MEDX’s database, please contact [email protected]. Keep in mind that there will be residual Information remaining within the databases, access logs, and other records, which may or may not contain such personally identifiable Information. The residual Information will not be used for commercial purposes; however, MEDX reserves the right, from time to time, to re-contact former customers or users of this site if lawful.
