11. GMP Bridge Briefing (Newsletter) and Brevo

We publish the GMP Bridge Briefing, a monthly email for professionals in Quality, Operations and CMC. Access is available on request and is reviewed individually.

Data we process
When you request access via the form on our website, we process:
– first and last name
– company name and job title
– business email address
– company type and, if provided, your areas of interest and who invited or recommended you
– the date and time of your request and confirmation, and the IP address used, to document your consent

Purpose and review
We use these data to review your request, to send you the Briefing if your request is accepted, and to respond to your replies. We review each request personally. If a request is not accepted, we inform you where appropriate and delete your data within 30 days.

Legal basis
We process these data on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, and correspondingly under the FADP). You give your consent via the checkbox in the form and confirm it through the link in a confirmation email (double opt-in). Without this confirmation, you will not receive the Briefing.

Service provider
We use Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, 106 boulevard Haussmann, 75008 Paris, France) to manage requests and send the Briefing. Brevo processes the data on our behalf under a data processing agreement and stores them in the European Union. The request form is loaded from Brevo’s servers; when you open the page, your IP address is transmitted to Brevo for this purpose.

Analysis of the Briefing
To improve the Briefing, we measure for each recipient whether an email was opened and which links were clicked. Links in the Briefing may contain tracking parameters so that we can see which content is read on our website. You can object to this analysis at any time by unsubscribing.

Retention
We keep your data for as long as you receive the Briefing. After you unsubscribe, we delete your data, except for the record of your consent, which we may keep for up to three years to demonstrate that it was given.

Withdrawal
You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future, using the unsubscribe link in every email or by writing to contact@gmpbridge.com.
