This website (medicalcert.co.uk) is operated by Nobel Medical LLC, a limited liability company registered in the State of Delaware, United States, with its registered office at 131 Continental Dr, Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713, USA.

Nobel Medical LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”) acts as the data controller for personal data collected through this website.

MedicalCert operates as a digital service connecting patients with GMC-registered doctors for private medical consultations and the issuance of medical documentation where clinically appropriate.

2. UK Representative

UK-based individuals and the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) may contact our UK Representative directly regarding any matter relating to the processing of their personal data:

Nobel Medical LLC is established in the United States. Personal data collected from UK data subjects is transferred outside the UK to the United States and to our hosting infrastructure located in the Asia/Pacific region.

Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards as required under Articles 44–49 UK GDPR, including standard contractual clauses or equivalent legally recognised mechanisms with our processors.

9. Data Retention

  • Resolve disputes and enforce agreements

Once retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
