TheraVet is committed to ensure that your privacy is protected and will only process your personal data in conformity with the General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR (in effect since May 25, 2018).

Types of personal data collected

Contact Form

We collect personal data you directly provide us with. This generally includes:

  • First name and Last name,
  • Professional contact information (email, address, company, job title…),
  • any other personal data you choose to provide to us with.

When you voluntarily provide us with this information through our websites or any other information channel, the personal data provided by you will be used only for the purpose of responding to your query or your request for information. The legal basis for such processing is your consent. We will not use this personal data for direct marketing purposes.

Clinical trial data

If you are a study animal’s owner, you may participate in clinical trials of TheraVet’s products. By giving consent to participate in such clinical trials, the investigator conducting the clinical trial will collect personal data of the study animal’s owner. TheraVet receives this information anonymously, which means that we do not receive data such as the owner’s name or any other contact information so that we cannot directly identify the study animal’s owner. However, employees or contractors working on behalf of TheraVet, may access the owner’s personal data at the source of collection for the purpose of verifying data. The study animal’s owner data will only be processed for scientific research purposes with appropriate safeguards in place.

Personal data about the investigators conducting clinical trials and people who assist them is collected by TheraVet as well. In general, this type of information includes the name, address, telephone details, field of expertise, position, role in study and qualifications and includes information provided on Curricula Vitae and Financial Disclosure Forms. TheraVet is required to obtain such data on potential or actual investigators in order to maintain quality clinical trials and consistently meet global regulatory and compliance guidelines (legal obligation).
