What we collect and use your information for
We take your privacy seriously and we will only ever collect and use information which is personal to you where it is necessary, fair and lawful to do so. We will collect and use your information only where:
- you have previously given us your permission [consent] or we feel that there are legitimate grounds to send you information about products and services offered by Synopsis and Intouch with health Ltd and / or selected third parties we have chosen to work with which we believe may be of interest and benefit to you
- it’s necessary for us to meet our legal or regulatory obligations e.g. to tell you about changes in our Terms and Conditions e.g. new Service Level Agreements and End User Licence Agreements
After carrying out a Legitimate Interest Assessment (LIA), we feel we can rely on legitimate interests as a valid, legal basis for processing data:
- We keep the minimum possible data on individuals and this data only relates to the individual in a professional context.
- We only process data if we feel there is a high chance the individual will have a legitimate interest.
- We take all steps to ensure the safety, privacy and rights of the individual.
If you do not wish us to collect and use your personal information in these ways, it may mean that we will be unable to provide you with information about updates and upgrades to our products or services.

These third parties include:
- Companies we have chosen to support us in the delivery of the products and services we offer to you and other customers e.g. research, consultancy or technology companies; or companies who can help us in our contact with you, for example an internet service provider
- Regulators and Supervisory Authority e.g. the Information Commissioner’s Office for the UK (the ICO)
We will never sell your details to someone else. Whenever we share your personal information, we will do so in line with our obligations to keep your information safe and secure.
Where your information is processed
Your information is currently only processed in the UK.
How we protect your information
We take information and system security very seriously and we strive to comply with our obligations at all times. Any personal information which is collected, recorded or used in any way, whether on paper, online or any other media, will have appropriate safeguards applied in line with our data protection obligations.
Your information is protected by controls designed to minimise loss or damage through accident, negligence or deliberate actions. Our employees also protect sensitive or confidential information when storing or transmitting information electronically and must undertake annual training on this.
Our security controls are aligned to industry standards and good practice; providing a control environment that effectively manages risks to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of your information.
Data Breaches
Synopsis and Intouch with health Ltd is aware of our responsibility to notify the ICO in the event of a serious personal data breach. Specifically where this is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of the individuals e.g. discrimination, damage to reputation, financial loss, loss of confidentiality or any other significant social disadvantage.
In most cases, a time limit of 72 hours will apply. If the breach relates to customer data, any customers affected must be notified ‘without undue delay’.
A Security Incident Report form should be completed. This form can be used where the incident is handled internally and the resolution and action plan will be included in the form.
In the event that the ICO needs to be notified, the same form can be used.
How long we keep your information
We will keep your personal information where there is a legitimate reason to provide you with information about our products or services and unless you request to opt-out of communications from Synopsis and Intouch with health Ltd. By law we have to keep basic information about our customers for six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes. In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data.
