Upon request, we will explain to the individual any implications of withdrawing consent.

We will only collect information that is reasonably necessary to provide appropriate services. We may also use “cookies” to collect certain information from all users, including website visitors who don’t buy anything through our Website. A cookie is a string of data our system sends to your computer and then uses to identify your computer when you return to our Website.

At any time that your personal health information is under our control, you have the right to:

• request access to your personal health information,

Upon written request addressed to our privacy officer, we will inform you, as best we can, using reasonable efforts, of the existence, use and disclosure of your personal health information and we will give you access to that information, within a reasonable period of time (within 60 days). We will be glad to assist you in preparing a request if you inform her that you require such assistance.

Security

We have appropriate security measures and safeguards in place to protect your personal health information in accordance with the sensitivity of the information. We have company-wide policies and procedures in place to protect against loss or

theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification, regardless of the format in which the information is held. We ensure all our employees and business partners are aware of the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of your personal health information, and we will exercise appropriate care in the disposal and/or destruction of personal health information to prevent unauthorized parties from gaining access to the information. Unfortunately, even with our data security measures in place, we cannot guarantee the security of Personal Information. By using our Website, you acknowledge and agree that we make no such guarantee, and that you use our Website at your own risk. We will inform you as soon as we reasonably can if there is any unauthorized access to your Personal Information.

We may upload and store parts of your personal health information to various computer applications in order to provide efficient and shareable services online. Your personal health information will not remain exclusively within Nigeria or other countries as the nature of accessing information online creates this inevitable possibility when accessing information outside of a virtual private network. By providing Personal Information, you are consenting to Hypertension Africa transferring parts of your personal health information onto a secure server that you will have access to online. If you have any reservation about this action, we would prefer you inform us so we can avoid placing your personal health information into this system.

If you have any questions about the security of our website, or your privacy, please contact us.
