Privacy Policy

How the European Society for Photodermatology collects, uses and protects personal data.

Contact-form enquiries

The form sends your name, email, chosen topic, subject, message and any optional institution, country and preferences to info@espd.phd and privately to Marco Sarzina and Prof. Piergiacomo Calzavara-Pinton to handle your enquiry. Membership requests also include your selected category, joining or renewal request, and any EADV membership status or number you choose to provide. The society address follows its existing secretariat distribution.

Cloudflare processes the form and outgoing email; the recipients’ email providers process delivery and storage. This website does not store your message in a contact database. Short-lived request references and protected hashes are retained for up to 48 hours for duplicate prevention and abuse limits; provider logs, recovery copies and the resulting correspondence have separate retention.

Your details are used to respond, not to subscribe you automatically to marketing. Do not submit patient information, medical images or other sensitive data. Contact info@espd.phd for questions or requests concerning your enquiry. EADV registration takes place on EADV’s website under its own conditions and privacy notice.
