This policy provides you with information on how your personal data may be processed by Stago.
This policy, which is accessible in particular on our website, is updated regularly in order to take into account legislative and regulatory developments, and any change in the Stago organisation or in the processing it performs.
This policy will, where necessary and if the relevant information is not detailed in this policy, be accompanied by a specific information statement for each processing operation carried out on your personal data, which will be made available to you as soon as possible and, in the event that we collect your data directly from you, at the time of this collection.
Stago, when acting as a controller, is responsible for the personal data that you provide to us or that we collect.
In order to protect your privacy and your personal data as effectively as possible, we have appointed a data protection officer.

We are committed to ensuring the highest possible level of protection for the persons whose personal data we process ("data subjects").

We will comply with the applicable regulations for all the processing of personal data that we carry out. We are, therefore, committed to respecting the following principles:
These commitments are manifested as follows:
Personal data is information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as an email address, your first and last name, your IP address, etc.
We collect your personal data as part of our sales, after-sales service, distribution and promotion. We also process personal data when we proposing to employ or engage a person to work for or with us and then if they do eventually become employed or engaged by us.

Thus, the retention period of your personal data depends on the purpose of the processing to which the personal data is subject, according to the provisions below:
Authorised persons within Stago and, in some cases, third parties who process personal data in order to provide us with services (our “trusted providers” which includes Diagnostica Stago SAS ), may access and process your personal data. We do our best to ensure that the number of such persons accessing and processing your data is kept as small as possible and to maintain the confidentiality and security of your personal data.
We only provide our trusted providers with the information they need in order to provide the service we require them to carry out and do not allow them to use your personal data for other purposes. We require all of our trusted providers with whom we work to maintain the integrity, availability, confidentiality and security of your data. We also ensure that when our relationship with a trusted processor comes to an end, that processor deletes your personal data without delay.
We select our trusted providers with great care, ensuring that they provide sufficient guarantees, particularly in terms of expertise, reliability and resources, to implement the technical and organisational measures to meet the requirements of the applicable legislation, in particular the security of the processing. In this regard, we instruct our trusted providers to process personal data only in accordance with our documented instructions. We also require the trusted providers to ensure that t their staff are committed to confidentiality or are subject to an appropriate legal obligation of confidentiality.
We may ask our trusted processors to provide a service that requires the processing of your personal data, for example in the following cases:
Where applicable, we take appropriate steps to ensure that the use of these trusted providers does not infringe our obligation of confidentiality.
Your data is stored in the UK by Stago and in the EU by our trusted providers.
When transferring data outside of the UK, we ensure that the data is transferred securely and in accordance with applicable law. When the country where the data is transferred does not have an adequacy decision, we use "appropriate safeguards".
These appropriate safeguards are a way to ensure that the protection of your personal data is ensured even when they leave the UK. These appropriate safeguards may, for example, consist of using standard contractual clauses.
