IF YOU ARE AN END-USER USING THE SMARTPDT-P APP

Our App is designed to enable you, the patient, to share data (including photographs and videos) and progress of your medical treatment with your healthcare professional, in a way that respects your privacy. Before you can use our App:

1. Your healthcare professional will need to create and share your login details with you, which will include your User ID.

2. You will be asked to provide 4 different consents. You are under no obligation to provide any of these consents and you can withdraw any of them at any time. But as explained on the registration page, you need at least to provide your consent to your data being shared for the purpose of providing the treatment (“medical records”) and of monitoring/improving the service (“service quality”) before you can use our App.

  • A record of your consent
  • Your login details (your User ID and an/or encrypted version of your Password)
  • Photographs and videos you take which you add to the App for your healthcare professional
  • Your approximate location and data collected by the sensors of your mobile device (e.g. GPS). This is to ascertain the approximate light levels where you are receiving treatment and will have a random radius added to enhance your privacy
  • Information you add to the App related to your skin features and treatment
  • Environment type (e.g. park, beach), clothes, indoor/outdoor.

The lawful basis to process your personal data is your explicit consent, in accordance with Art. 6 Par. 1 of the GDPR. We do not know your name, address or other contact details. Your healthcare provider has their own independent records enabling them to link your User ID to your contact details, but we cannot make this link. Some of these information (e.g. type and nature of your skin) constitutes a special category of personal data in accordance with Article 9 of the GDPR. The data processing of the personal data is carried out in compliance with the provisions of the GDPR and other relevant laws.
