Lawful Basis for Data Processing
Enkehaus Pharmacy is committed to ensuring that all personal data collected from users is processed in accordance with the requirements set forth by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to the extent applicable in the United States of America. The principal lawful bases for processing personal data are based on user consent, the necessity for the performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, and the legitimate interests pursued by Enkehaus Pharmacy. We undertake to identify and document the lawful basis at the time of data collection and provide transparency concerning these bases to all users. Users' choices and rights are respected throughout the entire data lifecycle, and personal data will not be used for purposes incompatible with those specified at the time of collection. All processing activities are strictly regulated, and routine reviews are conducted to validate compliance with the declared lawful bases. Where the consent mechanism is employed, users are empowered to withdraw their consent at any time without prejudice. In such cases, any processing predicated on that consent will cease promptly and efficiently.
