Governance & health advocacy
The association is overseen by its elected committee and operates for non-commercial public-health benefit. The committee approves activities, reviews spending and manages conflicts of interest. Public and donated funds are recorded against their intended purpose; summary information is available on reasonable request.
Health advocacy is independent. Sponsors and suppliers may not direct educational content, select patient referrals or receive preferential access to members.
Privacy policy & GDPR
We collect only details needed to answer enquiries, administer membership or organize an activity. The legal basis may be consent, performance of a requested service, legal obligation or our legitimate nonprofit interest. We do not sell personal data.
Health information is sensitive personal data. Do not send medical records through the website. Where health details are genuinely needed, access is restricted and an appropriate lawful basis is documented. Data is retained only as long as necessary and protected with proportionate organizational safeguards.
You may request access, correction, erasure, restriction, portability or object to processing, subject to legal limits. Contact us at the address or email shown on this site. You may also complain to the Czech Office for Personal Data Protection (ÚOOÚ).
