We may share your Personal Information with service providers, affiliates, partners, and other third parties, where necessary, to provide our products and Services, as agreed to under a service agreement, or for any other purposes, as described in this Notice.  This includes sharing Personal Information to the following parties:

  • Saama is headquartered in the United States and has office locations (and affiliates) within the United States, India and the United Kingdom. Therefore, where required to perform the Services, your Personal Information will be remotely accessed or shared amongst those entities.
  • Personal Information provided to Our clients is aggregated within Our clinical SaaS Platform, as a central location where clients may review data from various inputs (i.e., electronic data capture, and lab test results).
  • Third-Party Providers. Saama may use third-party service providers to supplement its workforce or technology. For example, We use Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) to host our cloud solutions (including the Platform).

You have the right to have any incomplete, or inaccurate, Personal Information We hold about you corrected, where applicable.

Request Erasure

You have the right to request that We delete, or remove, your Personal Information where We no longer have a legal basis for Processing it.

Making a Request

If you wish to exercise any of your rights granted to you under relevant Data Protection Laws, or submit a “subject access request,” you may contact Us by using the following methods:

  • [email protected];
  • our toll-free number at: +1 888.205.3500 (option #4); or
  • at our physical addresses, as provided under Section 16 (Contact Us).

Please note, for clinical trials Saama is supporting on its clients’ behalf, Saama does not own, or manage, the source data submitted to Us. If you wish to exercise your rights, and you are participating in a clinical trial as a participant, healthcare provider, or other associated party, We encourage you to contact the relevant sponsor, or principal investigator, who is managing the relevant clinical trial for best results. However, We will provide any reasonable assistance to facilitate your request, when received.

Additionally, We may request specific information from you to help Us confirm your identity and facilitate your request. Applicable law may require, or permit, Us to decline your request. If We decline your request, We will tell you why, subject to legal restrictions.

As standard, requests will be fulfilled within thirty (30) days of their receipt, upon confirmation of your identity, or receipt of additional required information to help us to better manage your request. Based on the complexity of the request, additional time may be required, and Saama will contact you and provide you with information regarding any delays.

Right to submit a Complaint

If you would like to submit a complaint about Our use of your Personal Information or if you are unsatisfied with a response to your lawful request, you may contact Us, as described above, or submit a complaint to the data protection regulator in your jurisdiction, including those identified under Section 8 (for the EEA/UK/Switzerland), Section 9 (for the U.S.), Section 10 (if related to PHI/HIPAA).

Saama is at the forefront of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) and its application to clinical trials and Saama’s other Service offerings. AI and advanced analytics empower Our clients to perform quick and efficient analysis of their data, eliminating manual processes, and accelerating time to market. As standard, our AI technology does not include “automated decision-making”, which is where decisions about you are made solely on automated Processing and produces legal effects on you. Our AI technology is a tool for our clients to make decisions, but all clinical-related decisions that may have an impact on you, are performed by healthcare professionals, at their discretion. The AI in our platform and Service offerings provides insights and predictions for users to action. The human user must always review and approve any outputs from our AI models. Any action taken within our platform is human-driven and approved.

As part of Saama’s AI strategy, We are committed to ensuring transparency and adherence to the evolving legal requirements. This includes alignment with President Biden’s Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence (2023) in the United States and monitoring upcoming laws, such as Canada’s Artificial Intelligence and Data Act (“AIDA”) and the EU AI Act.

We will only retain your Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes We collected it for, including purposes satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or other reporting requirements, as agreed to contractually with Our clients or for Our legitimate business interests.

As standard, Saama may store your Personal Information for up to seven (7) years. We may retain your Personal Information for a longer period if a specific request is made by a client, a complaint, or if We reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to Our relationship with you.

In some circumstances, We may anonymize your Personal Information (so that it can no longer be associated with you) in which case We may use this information indefinitely, in accordance with applicable Data Protection Laws.

As part of Saama’s Services and operations, it may be necessary to transfer your Personal Information outside of your region or country of residency. For example, for Our Platform Services, Saama’s database is located within the United States; and therefore, your data will be stored in a secure location within AWS’s data centers in the United States. Additionally, Saama employees, and Our client’s employees, may access your data remotely from other regions, or affiliate locations, as required to perform the Services. 

Some jurisdictions (such as the EU/UK) may require specific conditions to ensure the security of your Personal Information when transferred internationally to a region that has not been deemed “adequate” by the relevant data protection authority. Where such transfers occur, Saama shall ensure the protections required under relevant Data Protection Laws are performed in alignment with relevant client contractual obligations and as otherwise necessary to adhere to the law. For the specific measures used for the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, please see Section 8 below.

If you have questions about the specific security measures used to protect data transfers, or how Saama complies with specific country requirements, please do not hesitate to contact Us, as specified under Section 16 (Contact Us).

Where We are conducting Services or Processing Personal Information of individuals in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the United Kingdom (“UK”), or Switzerland, We strive to ensure We are meeting the requirements of those regions, including as required under GDPR and FDPA. In addition to your rights and the information provided in this Notice, the following applies:

  1. International Transfers. As outlined above under Section 7, Saama will ensure that data transfers are performed in alignment with data transfer requirements and provide an adequate level of protection in countries that do not meet the EU/UK’s essential guarantees. This includes entering into standard contractual clauses (“SCCs”) or other approved methods defined by the Information Commissioner’s Officer (“ICO”) for the UK and the European Data Protection Board (“EDPB”) for the EEA and performing transfer impact assessments, as needed.
  2. Registration. Saama maintains an office location in the UK, as specified under Section 16, and has appointed a representative in the EU and Switzerland, as identified below:

We require the authorized agent to provide Us with proof of the California resident’s written permission (for example, a power of attorney) that shows the authorized agent has the authority to submit a request for the California resident. An authorized agent must follow the process described above to make a request (i.e., under “Your Rights” under Section 4). The authorized agent must also verify his or her own identity. We will confirm the agent’s authority with the relevant California resident related to the request that was made.
  • Direct Marketing Purposes. We do not share Personal Information with other people, or non-affiliated businesses, for their direct marketing purposes, unless otherwise agreed to by you.

Where relevant, any incentives to collect, or share, your Personal Information will be outlined in an informed consent, project-specific privacy notice, or terms of service, associated with the relevant Services offered.
  • Nevada Residents. Although Saama does not sell Personal Information, Nevada residents have the right to submit a verified request directing Saama not to sell their Personal Information. If you are a Nevada resident and would like to submit such a request, please send your request through any of the methods noted above under Section 4 (Your Rights).
  • Complaints (California and Virginia). If Saama does not allow you to exercise any or your rights, as may be relevant to you within the required timeframe, in the event of an extension, or to your satisfaction, you may contact the Attorney General of Virginia or California to submit a complaint.

For certain Services (as outlined under Section 2 above), Saama may qualify as a Business Associate to certain clients where We Process or come into contact with PHI, as defined under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, and its implementing regulations (“HIPAA”) the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (“HITECH”).

  • We may use, or disclose, PHI on behalf of, or to provide Services to, our clients, as the Covered Entities (as defined under HIPAA) for purposes of performing Our Service obligations, as outlined in Our service agreements with Covered Entities, as permitted under the relevant business associate agreement;
  • We may disclose PHI to subcontractors, or agents, that provide supporting Services to Us; however, We require Our subcontractors, and agents, to comply with the same terms and conditions that apply to Us under relevant business associate agreements, including the implementation and maintenance of required data safeguards;
  • We may use, or disclose, PHI where required by law. For example: for judicial and administrative proceedings; under a court or administrative order; in response to a subpoena, warrant, or other lawful process; or for research purposes to the extent that certain steps required by law are taken to protect your privacy; and

  1. Additional Rights under HIPAA

In addition to your rights outlined under Section 4 of this Notice, you may have additional rights under HIPAA regarding the use and disclosure of your PHI.  Where We Process PHI, please note, Saama is not responsible for the originating source of your PHI; and in most cases, may not have the ability to perform the request. However, where relevant, We will assist in facilitating any lawful requests with Our clients, including the following: 

  • Right to Receive an Accounting of Disclosures. You have the right to request an “accounting” of certain disclosures of your PHI. The accounting lists instances where We disclosed your PHI and to whom that disclosure was made. The accounting does not include disclosures for treatment, payment, and health care operations; disclosures made to or authorized by you; and certain other disclosures.  Your request for an accounting of disclosures must be made in writing (as outlined in Section 4 (Your Rights) and you may request an accounting for disclosures made up to six (6) years before your request.

If you believe that a child under the age of consent may have provided us Personal Information, please contact us at [email protected] or submit a subject access request as outlined under Section 4 (Your Rights).

Saama ensures that the Personal Information entrusted to it is protected with organizational and technical measures. The specific measures will depend on the Services and types of data processed and in accordance with Saama’s data privacy and security governance program.
