Consent to collect your personal data. When you visit this website, it’s possible that certain information is automatically saved, such as the web page where you found us, your IP address, the type of browser you use and language and the times of access, as part of the website’s operation. Browsing information might also be saved, including data about the pages you visit, the links you use and other actions related to the website. Demographic information might also be collected (for example, your occupation, hobbies, sex or interests) and linked to your personal information. We only collect personal data after you have given us your consent to obtain certain information. By voluntarily providing this information to us, you agree to the collection and use of your personal data as set forth in this privacy policy.
Personal information includes: data collected when you register, including your member number and password, name, email address, postal address and telephone number, the information that is collected when you purchase something, including your credit card number and billing address. You can always choose not to provide your personal information. However, in that case, you may not be able to access some products and services.
Use of your personal information. IMS MEDICAL collects and uses your personal information to: create and manage your member account; process your transactions; provide services to customers; conduct studies and analyse information in order to improve our products, services and technologies; display personalised content according to your interests and preferences; organise competitions, select participants and choose the winners; and manage interactive areas. We may also send surveys or marketing communications to inform you of new products or services, or to provide other information or offers that may be of interest. These surveys or marketing communications come from IMS MEDICAL. If you don’t wish to receive surveys or marketing communications, you can follow the unsubscribe instructions included in each email we send. Please remember that even if you choose not to receive marketing communications, you will still receive messages about the transactions you make or your account (for example, confirmation messages and statements with your account balance). The personal information collected by IMS MEDICAL can be stored and handled in Spain or in any other country in which IMS MEDICAL or its parent company, associated companies, subsidiaries or agents have facilities. By providing us with your personal data and using our websites or services you accept their transfer outside your country. If you wish to exercise any of your personal data protection rights (including the right to delete your personal information), please get in touch using the contact information described in this document.
Disclosure of your personal information. With the exception of the assumptions established in this privacy policy, IMS MEDICAL does not disclose or sell your personal data to third parties. If you have participated and/or won an IMS MEDICAL contest, we or the sponsor of the contest may publish your name and the city where you live.
Access to your personal information. If you wish to review the information you have given us, you can access your personal data and modify them in the “Account details” section of the website or by sending an email to the address: info@ims-medical.es asking for help.
Personal Information Preferences. IMS MEDICAL respects your right to decide how to use and disclose your personal information.

Use of cookies and other technologies. IMS MEDICAL uses “cookies” so you can log in to our services and personalise your online experience. A cookie is a small text file that is located on your hard drive. Cookies contain information, including personal data, that a web server can read later in the domain where you have assigned the cookie. This information includes the date and time of your visit, your registration information, your session identification number and your browsing history and preferences. Cookies offer many advantages. They allow us to identify registered users when they return to the site so they can retrieve search results, access light boxes and view their previous invoices. Cookies also save you time by preventing you from repeatedly entering the same information. In some cases, our third-party service providers may use cookies on our sites. We have no access to these cookies and we can’t control them. This privacy statement covers the use of cookies only by IMS MEDICAL and does not include the use of cookies by third parties. You have the possibility to accept or reject cookies. Although almost all browsers accept cookies automatically, you can usually modify your browser settings to reject them. If you decide to reject cookies, you may not be able to log in or use other interactive features of our sites and services that depend on cookies, but you can browse the basic features on our website. In addition to cookies, we may use other technologies, including single-pixel GIFS (also known as visitor counters) on our websites, as well as in promotional email messages or in newsletters. These tiny electronic images allow us to determine the number of users that have visited certain pages or opened messages or newsletters. We don’t use these images to collect personal data.
Security of your personal information. We care about the security of your personal information. We follow the generally accepted standards in the sector to help you protect your personal data, which include the following: restricted access to your personal information for our staff who need it when providing a service; we require employees to sign confidentiality agreements to protect clients and other confidential information; we encrypt your credit card information on your order forms using secure socket layer technology (SSL); and we store your personal information on secure computer systems that are protected against unauthorized access or use. However, no method of transmitting information over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% safe. For this reason, although we strive to protect your personal information, we can’t guarantee your total security. If you use a password to protect your personal and account information, you are responsible for keeping it confidential.
Forums and other interactive services. Our websites may include discussion forums or other interactive areas or services, including blogs, chats, bulletin boards, message boards, online hosting or storage services, or other areas or services in which you or third parties create, advertise or store content, messages, comments, materials or other elements on the websites (”Interactive Areas”). If you use an Interactive Area, you should know that these spaces are open to the public and any information you provide during registration can be seen by other people. We are not responsible for the personal information you send in relation to the Interactive Areas or the way in which third parties use this information, including the sending of unsolicited messages. Messages sent on the Interactive Areas can be stored indefinitely. If at any time you wish to delete a message, please let us know by sending an email to info@ims-medical.es. Don’t forget that if you delete a message from an Interactive Area, it doesn’t mean it’s deleted from our system.
Email references. If you decide to use our email reference services to inform a friend of our products or services (including images in your light box, promotional campaigns, new websites, job offer messages, etc.), we’ll ask you the name and email address of your friend. We’ll use that information to send your friend only one email inviting them to visit the website and see the product or service you have selected. We may use an external provider to administer this feature, but that third party may only use the information sent to provide only one email.
Children. We don’t intend to request or collect information from any person under the age of 18 without the consent of their parents. If you are under 18 years old, you mustn't use or enter information on this site, including, but not limited to, the Interactive Areas thereof. Get in touch by sending us an email to info@ims-medical.es to obtain the necessary parental consent forms.
Links. We may include links to websites, including those of our affiliate companies and those of external content providers that have privacy policies and practices that are different from those disclosed in this document. We aren’t responsible for the policies and practices of these websites and we advise you to read them before using them.
Changes to this privacy policy. We reserve the right to modify the terms and conditions of this privacy policy at any time. When we make modifications, we’ll check the date of the last update in the upper part of the privacy policy document. If there is any change related to this statement or to the way IMS MEDICAL uses your personal information, we’ll inform you with a prominent notice in this document or on our home page, or we’ll send you an email. We advise you to review this privacy policy whenever you visit any of our websites.
