General Terms and Conditions of Use and Privacy Policy

DKV SEGUROS Y REASEGUROS S.A., with corporate domicile at Torre DKV, Avenida María Zambrano 31, 50018 Zaragoza, with Tax ID No. A50004209 and registered in the Companies Register of Zaragoza, in Volume 1,711, Folio 214, Sheet Z-15.152, (hereinafter, "DKV" or "DKV Seguros"), provides the User in accordance with these General Terms and Conditions of Use access to the "Activa DKV App" (hereinafter, "application" or "app"), which gathers in a single application all the functionalities that enable them to manage digitally and simply their health policy. If you have the QC+ application installed, you will be able to access the functionalities of this application through a single registration: telemedicine services, verified medical information, updating your data, processing of reimbursements and authorisations, processing of medical appointments, learning about the Healthy Living Index, managing your personal health biography, signing up for healthy life plans and acquiring complementary services to take care of your health, even being able to manage electronic medical prescription services. 
 

The data we collect from you, including health data, will be processed to provide you with services and improve user experience. To do this, we also need to register your username in DKV Servicios, which is the company that manages DKV Seguros' digital health services.
 

In general terms, the services offered through the App do not have a purpose of diagnosing diseases, although via the QC+ application, in some cases it may involve providing electronic prescriptions through this application. These prescriptions do not imply the cancellation or modification of any medical treatment being carried out, unless indicated in this regard by your doctor due to possible incompatibilities.
 

The position of DKV Seguros in relation to the private medical prescription is the same as that taken by the collegiate medical bodies and declarations from various professorships in universities regarding clinical ethics in terms of recommending that the diagnostic phase be always carried out in person with the aim of conducting a more accurate initial analysis and treatment than when carried out telematically. However, we recommend the use of this feature of our Application when it comes to monitoring diseases that may be chronic or require the electronic prescription of medication. Therefore, depending on the speciality, in certain cases that have already been repeatedly diagnosed the application can replace a visit to your habitual doctor or specialist. Nonetheless, it is not a sufficient reason for users not to visit their doctor in person for clarification purposes if deemed appropriate or if part of the service cannot be provided via teleconsultation, such as diagnostic tests, X-rays, and so on.
 

These General Terms and Conditions of Use establish the legal framework for using the application. We recommend that you read them carefully, as together with the Privacy Policy and the Cookies Policy, they make up the contract that will govern their use.

During the registration process, we will ask you to accept the Terms and Conditions of Use, the Privacy Policy and the Cookies Policy. You will then receive an email in which we will ask you to verify the registration via a link that will forward you to a website for the registration's final confirmation.

Correct use of the application. Scope of liabilities

The advice or recommendations provided through the application are always based on the truthfulness and accuracy of the information provided by the User and will not be deemed as a medical prescription, even if signed or explained by a health professional.
 

DKV will allow taking out different health modules and services, but it acts exclusively as a facilitator and, therefore, is not liable for the use that the application's Users make of the contents or its transfer to third parties.
 

The right of the User to freely and voluntarily choose a doctor implicates the absence of direct, joint or subsequent liability of DKV Seguros with regard to the actions of such doctors, where it has no control capacity owing to the protection of professional secrecy, the confidentiality of health details and the prohibition of third parties gaining access to data in the health sector. Therefore, with regard to the provision of the services taken out through the application, the User releases DKV Seguros y Reaseguros S.A. from any liability for direct or indirect damages arising from actions or omissions that originate in the provision or taking out of services through the application; all of this without prejudice to any actions that the User may take against the practitioner(s) responsible for monitoring the pathologies.

The right to use our content will expire when your user account is cancelled or suspended.

DKV is not responsible for the state-of-the-art technology of the information security measures that the User has configured on the devices on which they install the application.
