Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

 

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

To comply with information retention best practice, seamlessCARE establishes standard retention periods for different categories of information, keeping in mind any professional rules or regulatory requirements that apply and ensuring that those retention periods are being applied in practice. Any personal information that is no longer required will either be archived or deleted in a secure manner.

seamlessCARE retention periods for different categories of personal information are based on individual business needs.

seamlessCARE understands the difference between permanently deleting a record and archiving it. If a record is archived or stored offline, it will reduce its availability and the risk of misuse or mistake. If it is appropriate to delete a record from a live system, seamlessCARE will also delete the record from any back-up of the information on that system, unless there are business reasons to retain back-ups or compensating controls in place.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Additional information

How we protect your data

seamlessCARE has appropriate security measures to prevent personal information held being accidentally or deliberately compromised. In particular, seamlessCARE:

  • have designed and organised security to fit the nature of the personal.

  • information held and the harm that may result from a security breach;

  • are clear about everyone’s responsibility for ensuring information security;

  • make sure that the correct physical and technical security is in place, backed up

  • by robust processes and procedures and reliable, well-trained staff; and are ready to respond to any breach of security swiftly and effectively.

seamlessCARE recognises that information security breaches may cause real harm and distress to the individuals if their personal information is lost or abused (this is sometimes linked to identity fraud).

 

What data breach procedures we have in place

If personal information is accidentally lost, altered or destroyed, attempts to recover it will be made promptly to prevent any damage or distress to the individuals concerned. In this regard Neuro Hero Ltd considers the following: · containment and recovery – the response to the incident includes a recovery plan and, where necessary, procedures for damage limitation.

  • assessing the risks – assess any risks and adverse consequences associated with the breach, as these are likely to affect how the breach needs to be contained.

  • notification of breaches – informing the Information Commissioner’s Office or other relevant Supervising Authority as necessary (within 72 hours), law enforcement agencies and individuals (whose personal information is affected) about the security breach is an important part of managing the incident.

  • evaluation and response – it is important to investigate the causes of the breach, as well as, the effectiveness of controls to prevent future occurrence of similar incidents.

Additionally, seamlessCARE would also look to ensure that any weaknesses highlighted by the information breach are rectified as soon as possible to prevent a recurrence of the incident.
