7. How long your information will be kept

Qured retains personal data and test results in accordance with our Data Retention Policy and applicable UK GDPR requirements. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data and the purpose for which it was collected.

In particular, health data and test results are retained only for as long as necessary to provide healthcare services, meet clinical governance requirements, and comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations.

We may also retain personal data where necessary to:

  • comply with legal, accounting or reporting requirements; and
  • establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Further details on applicable retention periods are available in our Data Retention Policy, which you can request by contacting us.

Once the applicable retention period has expired, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised in line with our internal policies.

8. Transferring your information out of the UK     

All Qured data storage is within the UK; however it may sometimes be necessary for us to transfer your information to countries outside the UK. For countries within the EU there remains an Adequacy Agreement in place with the UK which allows for free flow of data without additional measures. The UK also has Adequacy Agreements in place with certain other countries.

However, in those cases where an Adequacy Agreement does not exist (ie. 3rd countries), we will comply with applicable UK laws and additional protection measures designed to ensure the privacy of your information is maintained to the same privacy standards as afforded by the UK GDPR for such international transfers.

We will use, as appropriate, either an International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or the UK Addendum alongside existing Standard Contractual Clauses as a transfer tool to comply with Article 46 of the UK GDPR when making such restricted transfers.

If you would like further information about any such transfer and how we specifically protect your data, please contact dataprotection@qured.com
