Implantica may only process and store your Personal Data for the business purposes that are consistent with this Privacy Statement.

Implantica will obtain your consent i) before sharing your Personal Data with any third party that is not an affiliate or acting as an agent or vendor to perform tasks on our behalf or ii) to use the information for a purpose materially different from the purpose for which it was initially collected or subsequently authorized by you.

SHARING PERSONAL DATA WITH OTHERS

Implantica may share Personal Data with affiliates as well as with vendors or agents, which are acting as data processors (cf.
