Privacy Policy

Thank you for visiting a Health Economia Website or interacting with us via e-mail.

At Health Economia, we understand that protecting the privacy of visitors to our Websites is very important. That’s why we have taken the necessary steps to meet data privacy requirements. We treat your personal data“ according to the laws of Switzerland.

Health Economia Websites that display this privacy policy (“policy”) and that ask for any information from you are committed to collecting, maintaining, and securing personal information about you in accordance with this policy, as well as applicable laws, rules and regulations. This policy applies to personal information (as defined below) collected from Health Economia online resources and communications (such as Websites, e-mail, and other online tools) that display a link to this policy. This policy does not apply to personal information collected from offline resources and communications, except in cases where such personal information is consolidated with personal information collected by Health Economia online. This policy also does not apply to third-party online resources to which Health Economia’s Web sites may link, where Health Economia does not control the content or the privacy practices of such resources. 

We only collect personally identifiable information about you if you choose to give it to us. We do not share any of your personally identifiable information with third parties for their own marketing use unless you explicitly give us permission to do so. Please review this Privacy Statement to learn more about how we collect, use, share and protect information online.

1. Information Collected

2. Information We Get

– Personal information: You can visit our Websites without providing any personal information. We may collect your personally identifiable information (such as name, address, telephone number, e-mail address or other identifying information) only when you choose to submit it to us. We may also collect health information about you that you provide by responding to our questions or surveys.

– Aggregate information: In some cases we also remove personal identifiers from data you provide to us and maintain it in aggregate form. We may combine this data with other information to produce anonymous, aggregated statistical information.
