Data Security and Protection
We take the protection of your personal data seriously and have implemented robust technical and organizational measures to safeguard your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Employees and authorized service providers are contractually obligated to protect the confidentiality and security of your information, and access is granted strictly on a need-to-know basis. Despite our best efforts, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed fully secure; therefore, users are encouraged to safeguard their own credentials and not to share sensitive information via unprotected channels. In the event of a data breach that may affect your rights or privacy, we will act promptly to investigate, contain and mitigate the breach, and where required, notify you and governmental authorities in compliance with legal obligations.

We may also disclose information where required by law, such as in response to lawful requests by public authorities or to comply with legal processes. In the event of a merger, sale, or other business transition involving Beans PharmCare, personal data may be transferred as part of the assets, in accordance with the principles of this privacy policy and with proper notice to users. We do not disclose any user health information unless compelled by law or with explicit user consent.
