Introduction

Farmakopoioi respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal data you provide us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, share, retain, and safeguard your information when you interact with our website, app, or services.

Information We Collect

We collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, message content, or other data when you contact us, submit content, or subscribe to updates. We also collect certain technical and usage data automatically, including IP address, device type, operating system, browser type, pages visited, referral source and exit pages, timestamps of your activity, and click paths. Cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies are used to support this data collection.

Use of Information

The information you provide helps us respond to your inquiries, manage contributions, deliver news alerts or newsletters (if opted in), and moderate content. Automatically collected data allows us to analyze site usage, diagnose technical issues, track engagement and trends, optimize content and layout, and detect misuse or abuse. With your consent, we may use your data to send promotional communications, partner content, or updates relevant to pharmacy and healthcare.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, local storage, web beacons, and similar technologies to enable site functionality, remember your preferences, help with login or form filling, support analytics, and, where applicable, deliver targeted content. Some cookies are essential for site operations; others serve analytics or marketing uses. You may disable or block cookies via your browser settings, though doing so may limit site features or lower the quality of your experience.

Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share data with trusted service providers who assist with hosting, email delivery, analytics, advertising, or technical infrastructure. These providers are contractually bound to maintain data confidentiality and use it only for the services they provide on our behalf. We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, or in the context of legal or regulatory processes. In limited cases, we may share data to protect our rights, users, or property, or to prevent wrongdoing.

Data Security

We employ administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, misuse, or destruction. Data transfers occur over secure protocols (HTTPS) and access to personal data is restricted to authorized personnel or service providers who need it to perform their duties. Although no system is completely immune to risk, we regularly review and update our security practices to minimize vulnerabilities.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal obligations. Once data is no longer required, we securely delete, anonymize, or archive it appropriately. Aggregated or anonymized usage data may be kept longer to support analytics and trend reports.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, update, or delete your personal data. You may also object to or restrict processing, and withdraw consent to promotional communications at any time. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@farmakopoioi.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe in line with applicable law.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed at children under the age of thirteen. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under that age. If we discover any data has been collected inadvertently, we will promptly remove it.

Policy Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. We will post the revised version here with an updated effective date. Your continued use of Farmakopoioi after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
