2. Data Collected

We may collect the following categories of data:

Processed with maximum protection as required by Article 9 GDPR. • Technical data: IP address (anonymised), browser type, OS, pages visited, visit duration — automatically collected via Google Analytics 4. • Navigation data (cookies): see our Cookie Policy.

3. Purposes and Legal Bases

Each processing activity is based on a legal basis under Article 6 GDPR:

• Appointment management and patient relationship: performance of a contract (Art. 6.1.b). • Responding to contact requests: legitimate interests (Art. 6.1.f). • Audience statistics via Google Analytics: consent (Art. 6.1.a) — you may freely accept or refuse on your first visit. • Legal obligations (retention of care records): legal obligation (Art. 6.1.c) — Belgian law requires 30-year retention of medical records.

4. Retention Periods

• Care records: 30 years after the last consultation (legal obligation). • Contact data and correspondence: 3 years after last contact. • Analytics data (Google Analytics): 14 months. • Cookie data: see our Cookie Policy.

5. Recipients and Sub-processors

Your data is never sold or transferred to third parties for commercial purposes. It may be shared with:

• Google LLC (Google Analytics 4) — anonymised audience measurement. Google is subject to Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for US transfers. • Vercel Inc. — website host. Technical data transits via GDPR-compliant Vercel servers. • Partner healthcare professionals — only for continuity of care and with your explicit agreement. • Legal authorities — when required by law.

6. International Transfers

Google Analytics and Vercel process data on servers located in the United States. These transfers are governed by the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission (Decision 2021/914).

You can disable Google Analytics at any time via our Cookie Policy or by installing the official browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
