Privacy Rights

Last updated: 2 September 2026

A person may request information about the controller, data composition/content, purposes and recipients, access, correction, withdrawal of consent and other rights available under the Law of Ukraine “On Personal Data Protection”. Requests should identify the account/email/phone and feature involved without sending unnecessary sensitive documents. UCS may verify identity.

A request may be limited where necessary for another person’s rights, medical secrecy, legal obligations, certificate authenticity, petition integrity, security/fraud records, legal claims or another lawful basis. Withdrawal does not invalidate prior lawful processing. Complaints may be submitted to the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights or another competent authority.

Questions, privacy requests, complaints and security reports: info@uasurgeons.org. UCS may reasonably verify identity and authority before acting on a request.

Rights concerning membership documents

An applicant or member may ask UCS to confirm whether membership verification documents are being processed, provide access to personal data contained in the membership record subject to lawful limits, correct inaccurate profile or verification information, replace an outdated or incorrect supporting document, and request deletion or restriction where there is no overriding lawful reason to retain the information.

UCS may retain some verification or audit information despite a deletion request where reasonably necessary for an active membership relationship, verification integrity, a complaint or appeal, fraud prevention, security, a legal obligation or legal claim. Where the full document is no longer needed, UCS may consider retaining only limited verification metadata.

A privacy request should not include another full diploma, passport or other sensitive document unless UCS specifically asks for it to verify the request. UCS may use proportionate identity verification.
