Confidentiality

In the highly competitive Healthcare sector, confidentiality applies to many levels, form the anonymity of the individual patient to the trade secrets that involve the launch of a new pharmaceutical product.

In GLOBAL SPC^® we apply strict quality assurance procedures that cover the confidentiality of all data handed in to us, in every step of the translation process.

Confidentiality for GLOBAL SPC^® involves:

1. The data trusted to us and

2. The identity of the sender/owner of the data, be it a single individual or a company-institution.

In addition, prior to the allocation of any project, we provide the future client with our own confidentiality agreement, covering all legal aspects of data secrecy.

This agreement may be further modified according to the client’s needs or, instead,  we sign the client’s  own confidentiality agreement.
