Micropep has taken physical, electronic and organisational measures to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorised access or dissemination, alteration or deletion of Personal Data. Such measures include the use by Micropep of technologies specially designed to protect Personal Data during transmission.

Since all Personal Data are confidential, access to such data is limited to the Micropep’s personnel, service providers and officers who need it when performing their duties.
