Privacy Policy

Text-Block

The protec­tion of personal data is not only an impor­tant concern for us, it is also our company’s number one prior­ity, so we can earn the trust placed in us by our patients, busi­ness part­ners and employ­ees in the correct handling of their data. In the field of health care espe­cially, compli­ance with the applic­a­ble legal provi­sions on the protec­tion of personal data and data secu­rity is indis­pens­able. For us, compli­ance with the General Data Protec­tion Regu­la­tion (GDPR) and supple­men­tary national data protec­tion regu­la­tions is thus a matter of course. The medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH has imple­mented numer­ous tech­ni­cal and organ­i­sa­tional measures (TOM) within the company to ensure the process­ing of personal data is as risk free as possi­ble. In accor­dance with the General Data Protec­tion Regu­la­tion, we are obliged to provide you with certain infor­ma­tion. We are happy to comply with this oblig­a­tion by means of this privacy policy, in which we inform you about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we process and inform you about the rights of data subjects.

If you have any ques­tions or concerns about data protec­tion, please do not hesi­tate to contact us.

How to contact us
If you contact us by the form on our website or by e‑mail, we will store the data you provide for six months for the purpose of process­ing your request and in case of follow-up ques­tions. We do not pass on this data with­out your consent.

Collec­tion of general data and information
The website of the medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH collects a range of general data and infor­ma­tion when­ever a data subject or auto­mated system calls up the website. This general data and infor­ma­tion are stored in the server log files. The follow­ing can be recorded (1) browser types and versions, (2) the oper­at­ing system used by the access­ing system, (3) the website from which an access­ing system accesses our website (the refer­rer), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an access­ing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Inter­net proto­col address (IP address) and (7) other simi­lar data and infor­ma­tion that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our infor­ma­tion tech­nol­ogy systems.

When using these general data and infor­ma­tion, the medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH does not draw any conclu­sions about the data subject. Rather, this infor­ma­tion is needed (1) to deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) to opti­mise the content and adver­tis­ing of our website, (3) to ensure the long-term func­tion­al­ity of our infor­ma­tion tech­nol­ogy systems and the tech­nol­ogy of our website, and (4) to provide law enforce­ment author­i­ties with the infor­ma­tion neces­sary for pros­e­cu­tion in the event of a cyber attack. The medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH there­fore collects anony­mous data and infor­ma­tion on the one hand for statis­ti­cal purposes, and on the other hand for the purpose of increas­ing the data protec­tion and data secu­rity of our enter­prise so that we can ulti­mately ensure an opti­mal level of protec­tion for the personal data we process. The anony­mous data contained in the server log files are stored sepa­rately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

Auto­mated deci­sion-making or profiling
As a respon­si­ble company, we completely refrain from auto­mated deci­sion-making or profiling.

Cook­ies
Our website uses cook­ies. Cook­ies are text files that are stored on a computer system via a web browser. By using cook­ies, we can provide you with a user-friendly website, which would not be possi­ble other­wise. You can prevent our website from stor­ing cook­ies at any time by chang­ing the setting in your web browser accord­ingly and perma­nently object­ing to cook­ies being placed on your device.
Further­more, exist­ing cook­ies can be deleted at any time via your web browser or other soft­ware programmes. This is possi­ble in all common web browsers. If you deac­ti­vate cook­ies in your web browser of choice, it may not be possi­ble to use all the func­tions of our website to their full extent.

reCAPTCHA
To protect your requests submit­ted via our online form, we use the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google Inc (Google). The query serves to distin­guish whether the input is made by a human being or improp­erly by auto­mated, machine process­ing. The query includes send­ing an IP address to Google and possi­bly other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service. For this purpose, your input is trans­mit­ted to Google and further used there. However, your IP address will be short­ened before­hand by Google within member states of the Euro­pean Union or in other contract­ing states of the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Economic Area. Only in excep­tional cases will the full IP address be trans­mit­ted to a Google server in the US and short­ened there. On behalf of the oper­a­tor of this website, Google will use this infor­ma­tion to eval­u­ate your use of this service. The IP address trans­mit­ted by your browser for reCAPTCHA will not be merged with other Google data. The devi­at­ing data protec­tion provi­sions of Google apply to these data. You can find more infor­ma­tion on Google's privacy policy at: https://​poli​cies​.google​.com/​p​r​i​v​a​c​y​?​h​l​=en

Website Analy­sis
We want to process as little personal data as possi­ble when users visit our website. For this reason, we have chosen Fathom Analyt­ics for our website analyt­ics, which does not use cook­ies and complies with the GDPR, ePri­vacy (includ­ing PECR), COPPA and CCPA. With this privacy-friendly website analyt­ics soft­ware, your IP address is processed only briefly, and we (the oper­a­tors of this website) have no way to iden­tify you. In accor­dance with the CCPA, your personal data are anonymised. For more infor­ma­tion, please visit the Fathom Analyt­ics website.

The purpose of our use of this soft­ware is to under­stand our website traf­fic in the most privacy-friendly way possi­ble so that we can contin­u­ously improve our website and busi­ness. The legal basis under the GDPR is (f); where our "legit­i­mate inter­est" is to contin­u­ously improve our website and busi­ness. As can be seen from the expla­na­tion above, no personal data is stored over time.

General

Proces­sor
The controller medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH reserves the right not to directly carry out all process­ing activ­i­ties neces­sary for the fulfil­ment of the purpose and to trans­fer these to exter­nal service providers, known as proces­sors. As a result, we will trans­mit your personal data to the proces­sor and they will be subse­quently processed by the latter. With­out excep­tion, we only work with proces­sors who, in addi­tion to the best possi­ble profes­sional qual­i­fi­ca­tions, offer suffi­cient guar­an­tees that they imple­ment appro­pri­ate tech­ni­cal and organ­i­sa­tional measures, to make sure the process­ing is carried out in accor­dance with the require­ments of the GDPR and ensure the protec­tion of the rights and free­doms of the data subjects. The process­ing oper­a­tions by the proces­sor shall be carried out on the basis of a writ­ten contract or another legal instru­ment under Union or Member State law.

Routine erasure and block­ing of personal data
We process and store your personal data only for the period neces­sary to achieve the purpose or if this has been provided for by EU direc­tives and regu­la­tions or another legis­la­tor in laws or regu­la­tions to which we are subject.
If the purpose of process­ing ceases to apply or if a stor­age period prescribed by EU direc­tives and regu­la­tions or another compe­tent legis­la­tor expires, your personal data will be routinely blocked or erased in accor­dance with the statu­tory provi­sions, unless they are required for any further legal requirements.

Legal basis of process­ing in general

  • Arti­cle 6(1) a GDPR
    The data subject has given consent to the process­ing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes.

  • Arti­cle 6(1) a GDPR
    The data subject has given consent to the process­ing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes.
    Process­ing special cate­gories of personal data shall be prohib­ited.

It is hereby stated that, pursuant to Arti­cle 9(2) of the GDPR, the process­ing shall be carried out exclu­sively by or under the respon­si­bil­ity of qual­i­fied person­nel who are subject to profes­sional secrecy under Union or Member State law.
  • Arti­cle 9(2) i GDPR

Process­ing activities
Below, we would like to provide an overview of our main process­ing activ­i­ties for each data subject group.

Appli­cants
Purpose of data processing:
Appli­cant data are used for tempo­rary record keep­ing in unso­licited appli­ca­tions and in appli­ca­tion proce­dures with job adver­tise­ments as well as for the selec­tion of applicants.

Legal basis and inter­ests of data processing:

  • General Data Protec­tion Regu­la­tion (GDPR) in partic­u­lar Arti­cle 6(1). a (Consent to data process­ing), Arti­cle 6(1) b (Pre-contrac­tual measures) and Arti­cle 6(1) f GDPR (Safe­guard­ing the legit­i­mate inter­ests of the respon­si­ble party or a third party).
    Appli­cant data are processed in order to be able to contact appli­cants as part of the selec­tion process and, if neces­sary, to verify your infor­ma­tion in indi­vid­ual cases if this is in our inter­est for a posi­tion requir­ing high levels of trust­wor­thi­ness, or it is neces­sary in the inter­est of third parties.

Recip­i­ent or cate­gories of recipients:
Appli­cant data are usually checked by the HR depart­ment and submit­ted to the employ­ees who are involved in the appli­ca­tion process. In justi­fied cases, where there is a corre­spond­ing over­rid­ing inter­est, third parties may verify the infor­ma­tion (e.g. qual­i­fi­ca­tions and degrees).
medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH is part of the medalp group GmbH group of compa­nies. For econom­i­cal inter­nal admin­is­tra­tion, we there­fore also make use of group-affil­i­ated compa­nies for process­ing activ­i­ties (exchange of appli­ca­tion docu­ments) in order to enable cross-company appli­ca­tions, if neces­sary. The Group has an over­rid­ing legit­i­mate inter­est in this.

Data collec­tion from other sources:
When contact­ing refer­ences provided by appli­cants, data and infor­ma­tion regard­ing your previ­ous employ­ment or activ­i­ties, as well as subjec­tive assess­ments of your work perfor­mance, may be collected by the appro­pri­ate third parties.

Data reten­tion period:
In the case of appli­ca­tion proce­dures based on job adver­tise­ments, the personal data of unsuc­cess­ful appli­cants will be deleted after the appli­ca­tion proce­dure has been completed. However, at the applicant's request, it is possi­ble to keep the data on record for a further six months. In the case of unso­licited appli­ca­tions, the data is stored for six months from the date of receipt. The appli­cant will be informed and clar­i­fied of this. If there is an express wish to extend the period by a further six months, this is entirely possi­ble. In both cases, an infor­mal objec­tion can be lodged at any time.

Provi­sion of data:
In order to carry out the appli­ca­tion process, it is imper­a­tive that proof of the qual­i­fi­ca­tions required for the vacant posi­tion is provided and contact details are submit­ted. In indi­vid­ual cases, it may also be neces­sary to request further data (e.g. an extract from crim­i­nal records). If the manda­tory data are not provided, the appli­cant cannot be consid­ered for the position.

Further process­ing of data for other purposes:
If an employ­ment rela­tion­ship is estab­lished, core data (name, address and commu­ni­ca­tion data) as well as proof of qual­i­fi­ca­tions from appli­ca­tion docu­ments are used further for the purposes of person­nel administration.

Patient

Purpose of data processing:
The purpose of data process­ing is primar­ily the execu­tion of the treat­ment agree­ment. This includes the record­ing of core patient data and the collec­tion of health data in the course of treat­ment. These data are also required for any admin­is­tra­tive tasks, e.g. billing.

Legal basis and inter­ests of data processing:

  • Kranke­nanstal­tenge­setz TirKAG [Hospi­tal Act] in partic­u­lar section 14 (duty of confi­den­tial­ity), section 15(1) (keep­ing of medical records) and section 47 (rights of social insur­ance institutions)
  • Versicherungsver­trags­ge­setz VersVG [Insur­ance Contract Act] in partic­u­lar section 11a (process­ing of personal data by insurers)
  • Ärztege­setz ÄrzteG [Physi­cians Act] in partic­u­lar section 51 (docu­men­ta­tion oblig­a­tions and provi­sion of information)

  • General Data Protec­tion Regu­la­tion GDPR in partic­u­lar Arti­cle 6(1) a (Consent to data process­ing), Arti­cle 6(1) b (Perfor­mance of a contract), Arti­cle 6(1) c (Compli­ance with legal oblig­a­tions), Arti­cle 6(1) d (Vital inter­ests) and Arti­cle 9(2) a (Consent to process­ing of special cate­gories of personal data)

Recip­i­ent or cate­gories of recipients:

To make diag­noses and develop ther­a­pies and other preven­tive measures as part of the treat­ment, it is neces­sary to collab­o­rate and exchange data with other health care providers, as they have exper­tise and equip­ment in specific areas and can thus provide opti­mal treatment.
Personal data are trans­mit­ted to the respec­tive private and social insur­ance compa­nies to clar­ify the cover­age of costs.
Cate­gories of recipients:

  • Social secu­rity
  • Private insur­ance providers
  • Health care providers (hospi­tal, doctor, labo­ra­tory, pathol­ogy, histol­ogy, bacteriology,…)
  • Insured person
  • Patient’s (nomi­nated) visitors
  • Emer­gency services
  • ELGA
  • Proces­sor
  • Admin­is­tra­tive authorities
  • Courts
  • Lawyers
    Federal army
  • Prison
  • Social welfare

Collec­tion of data from other sources:
In order to ensure opti­mal cross-organ­i­sa­tional and cross-national health care for patients, it is impor­tant to have knowl­edge of all rele­vant infor­ma­tion and data. There­fore, medalp Imst — Zentrum für ambu­lante Chirurgie Betriebs GmbH often obtains and receives personal data from other health­care providers. This usually involves exist­ing doctor's letters, imag­ing, find­ings, labo­ra­tory reports and other rele­vant data in the patient's file. Redun­dancy of exam­i­na­tions and treat­ments is thus prevented. In the context of corre­spon­dence with insur­ance compa­nies, personal data (core data and insur­ance data) may also be trans­mit­ted by the rele­vant insur­ance companies.

Data reten­tion period:
An entire medical history as well as X‑rays, video record­ings and other aids for the prepa­ra­tion of find­ings is kept for at least 30 years. After this period, the data will be erased imme­di­ately. However, three years after treat­ment, all the data are archived and access to these data is blocked. When a case is reopened, this block is lifted again and the three-year period begins anew.

Provi­sion of data:
The provi­sion of neces­sary personal data is manda­tory to carry out treatment.
Further process­ing of data for other purposes
The data collected are used exclu­sively for the activ­i­ties within the scope of treat­ment, which also includes the inter­nal trans­fer of data to the hospi­tal administration.
