Data Transfers

If you are accessing the Website from outside of the U.S., please be aware that data collected through the Website may be transferred to the U.S. (We are based in the U.S. and our Website is hosted on servers in the U.S.) We transfer data to the U.S. for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice or our description at the point of collection or handling, and otherwise not prohibited by applicable law. Laws in the U.S. may be different from and provide less protection than those in the country you are located. We may also transfer personal data amongst ourselves or with service providers in other countries in order to process consumer privacy requests.

Third-party Practices

Our Website may contain links to third-party websites. If you visit a third-party website, you are subject to that website’s privacy notice and not ours.

Data Storage and Security

We may store your personal data in the U.S. such as, but not limited to, the cloud. Except as otherwise permitted or required by law, we retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes of collection. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use of processing by other means, and any applicable legal requirements.

We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data from accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure, or use. Our service providers are also required to adhere to reasonable security practices to further ensure the protection of your data. That being said, digital transmission and storage of data is not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the safety of your data.

Do Not Track

Your browser may allow you to set a Do Not Track (“DNT”) signal indicating that you do not wish your online activity to be tracked. We do not respond to and cannot act on received DNT signal headers.

Opt-Out of Communications

Your Rights

This section describes data privacy rights you may have and how to exercise them. Depending on applicable law where you reside, you may be able to assert certain rights related to your personal information identified below. If any of the rights listed below are not provided under law for your jurisdiction, we have absolute discretion in providing you with those rights.

• To access: you can obtain information relating to the processing of your personal information and a copy of such personal information.
• To erase: you can require the deletion of your personal information to the extent permitted by law. We may also deny your deletion request to detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities. We will notify any third party that we have shared your personal information with and instruct the third party to delete your personal information.
• To object: you can object to the processing of your personal information on grounds relating to your particular situation. In cases of opposition to the processing of personal information the Company reserves the right to assess the application, which will not be accepted if there are legitimate reasons to proceed with the processing that prevail over your freedoms, interests and rights.
• To rectify: where you consider that your personal information is inaccurate or incomplete, you can require that such personal information be modified accordingly.
• To restrict: you can request the restriction of the processing of your personal information.
• To withdraw your consent: where you have given your consent for the processing of your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

• To know: you have the right to be informed if in the last 12 months the Company has disclosed, sold or shared your personal information to a third party.
• To correct: you have the right to request to correct any inaccurate personal information about you. If any personal information requires correction, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill your correction request.
• To appeal: In some jurisdictions, applicable law may give you the right to appeal an action by Company with regard to a privacy request.

To exercise your privacy rights, send us your verifiable consumer request using the “Contact” section below.

You may exercise your rights to know, delete or correct by only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a request to know, delete or correct related to your personal information. Depending on your jurisdiction, your ability to submit multiple requests within the same 12-month period may be limited.

The verifiable consumer request must (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal data only, and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf subject to proof of identity and authorization. We may request that your authorized agent have written permission from you to make requests on your behalf and may need to verify your authorized agent’s identity. We will only use personal data provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

We will respond to your request consistent with the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), the Colorado Consumer Protection Act (“CPA”), the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (“CTDPA”), the Utah Consumer Protection Act (“UCPA”) and the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (“TDPSA”) which does not apply to certain data, such as those collected as part of a clinical trial and medical and healthcare information, and which prohibits us from providing certain sensitive information in response to a consumer request.

Please note we do not have data that would allow us to directly identify clinical trial subjects.

The Company uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc, (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how uses use the site. The Information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

On behalf of the website provider Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website provider.

Response Timing and Format

will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. If you do not receive confirmation within the 10-day timeframe, please contact as provided “Contact” section below. The Company endeavors to substantively respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to another 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
