  1. ANTIBODY APPOINTMENT VARIATIONS

Restrictions:
Antibody samples can only be taken from individuals aged 18 and over.

Sample Collection:
Antibody samples are blood samples collected using a lancet and finger prick blood draw. The sample must be taken in line with the operating procedure. If for any reason you cannot provide a sufficient sample as per the procedure, JACE Medical cannot guarantee that the sample will be suitable for analysis. Additional Sample may be required if sample is insufficient for analysis. As a result the reports and results outcome may be affected by this.
The sample collection method requires a small volume of blood drawn from the customers finger. Slight discomfort may be experienced for a few days around the blood draw area as a result.

Purpose:
To determine the presence of COVID-19 Antibodies in a correctly, properly returned and intact (finger prick) whole blood sample, using the sample collection kit provided.

Your Sample:
By agreeing to these Terms & Conditions, you are providing JACE Medical with consent to test a sample that you have provided for the detection of SARS-COV-2 Antibodies. This may be completed using a multitude of scientific methodologies, for further improvements of COVID specific testing systems and for the detection of mutations and Variants of concerns (VOCs). JACE Medical aims and expects to securely and safely destroy all samples once all testing has been completed. It is not possible to return your sample to you.

Where you have obtained your COVID-19 test privately, then the relevant controller of personal data (i.e. the organisation that decides the purposes for which and the way in which your personal data is dealt with) will be JACE Medical.

Unless indicated otherwise, this policy sets out how JACE Medical will use, store and protect any personal data we collect or generate about you for both private tests and public tests.

What Personal Data Do We Collect or Hold About You

We will collect personal data as part of our online testing kit registration process. Registration is essential for all testing and reporting of results to proceed, and it is essential that you complete these details, and confirm your acceptance of this policy, personally.
The information we collect during registration includes:

  • The unique registration number (URN) on your test kit (it is very important that this is recorded correctly to ensure that your sample is correctly matched to your online registration);
  • Your name;
  • Your date of birth;
  • Your gender;
  • Your email address (it is very important that this is recorded correctly so that your results are sent to

the right email address);

  • Your country / nationality;
  • Your telephone number;
  • The date your sample was collected;
  • Your full home address (including postcode);
  • Your national insurance number (optional); and
  • Your NHS / employee number (if applicable).
  • Your Vaccination Status

We will not collect any information which we, or relevant third parties, do not need.
Once your swab sample has been returned to us, and it has been tested for COVID-19, our systems will automatically generate a report which shows our findings (the Report). This Report will include some of the personal details that you have provided to us about yourself. We will also hold this information in a centralised database.
Please note that there are limitations inherent in the sample collection and testing process, which are explained in our terms and conditions, and in the test instructions that were provided to you when you received your test kit.
It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and current, and we cannot be held responsible for incorrect data that is provided by you. Please keep us informed if your personal data changes during your relationship with us.
If you fail to properly provide all requested data or provide incorrect data we may be unable to provide testing or notify you of your results. There is also a risk that third parties could be inadvertently provided with your data if, for example, you have not correctly entered your email address, or your email servers are compromised.

12

How Do We Use That Information?

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data on one or more of the following grounds:

Where we need to perform the contract that we have entered into with you (in the case of JACE Medical in respect of private tests).
Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests

Where we need to comply with a legal obligation (including the terms of our contract with the DOH, in the case of our partner lab, RANDOX in respect of NHS tests).

We do not rely on consent as a basis for processing your personal data, unless you have requested a private COVID-19 test from JACE Medical, in which case you may withdraw your consent to processing at any time by contacting us using the details below. Any payments made for testing are non-refundable, as explained in our terms and conditions.

Where we are using your personal data that identifies your health data, we are doing that either on the basis of your explicit consent, your vital interests, for public interest, medical diagnostic reasons or preventative or occupational health reasons.

Generally, JACE Medical will use the data you provide to test your swab samples for COVID-19 and notify the results to you as the registered user of the kit via the Report. A copy of the Report will be sent by email to the email address you provided to us when you signed up through our registration portal.

After your sample has been posted to us, please make sure to regularly check your emails (including any junk or spam folder) for any email attaching the Report. Please note that we are not responsible for the security of any domains in respect of email addresses you have given us. If you believe you have received a Report in error, please contact us at hello@jacemedical.co.uk immediately.

Additional information, including home address, is necessary for notifying the relevant public health or other Government authorities of the results of your test, if we are requested to do so. Personal data required for COVID-19 testing (including test results) is held on controlled computer systems. Currently, our registration portal is securely maintained on a secure UK-based server in accordance with their standard terms and privacy policy.

As a controller or processor of personal data, JACE Medical and its affiliated companies must process your information fairly and lawfully. We will also process your data in accordance with the instructions of the DOH and the terms of our contract, in the case of JACE Medical.

We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data for any purpose. Aggregated Data could be derived from your data but is not considered personal data as this it will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity.
We will not use any personal data that we collect for marketing purposes unless you have separately signed up to receive marketing communications from us.

Who Do We Share It With?

JACE Medical will not generally share personal data about you with other organisations or people, unless permitted or required by law, you have provided consent, or a third party is required to perform our obligations of contract (in such circumstances, the third party will be bound by similar data protection requirements). Nor do we transfer your personal data outside of the UK.

That said, please note that your data (including your test results) may be available to other companies within the JACE Medical groups of companies, and to relevant health or other governmental authorities for the purposes of, among other things, contact tracing and infection control.

Where possible, we require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and we only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with your consent.

In respect of NHS testing results, please note our partner lab, RANDOX acts as a processor on behalf of the DOH, so has no control over what the DOH chooses to do with your personal data or who it is shared with by DOH.

D REFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

Refunds and Cancellation Policy:

Due to the proficiency of our product dispatch, our logistical response to orders is instantaneous. Once an order is placed, things are set in motion which cannot be undone and the order shall be delivered accordingly.

JACE Medical is unable to offer refunds for the following reasons:

  • The products are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons, as per Article 28(3)(a) of the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (“2013 Regs”)
  • It is a government requirement to meet UKAS accreditation to ensure full chain of custody of samples is traceable. Each test Kit is personalised with a unique reference number for the purposes of the testing process and further personalised with unique booking reference numbers due to government requirements for passenger locator forms The kit is therefore exempt from refunds as per Article 28(3)(b).
  • Depending on the shelf life of the subject kit, the test kits may be liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly and therefore they are exempt from returns under Article 28(1)(c) of the 2013 Regs.
  • The test kits are a prescribed Medical Diagnostic Product, not a service, for use by the customer to facilitate their passenger transport requirements and therefore exempt from a right to cancel.
  • Following government advice, on a zero-tolerance approach to fraud, criminal activity, and breaches of Covid restrictions
  • In the interests of Public Health Protection
  • In cases of Force Majeure as detailed in these terms.

Once the Products are in the customers possession JACE Medical reserves the right to rely on 4.3 above.
