EraGen Biosciences, Inc. (“EraGen” or “we” or “us”) is committed to protecting the privacy of our online visitors at www.eragen.com (the “Site”). This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) is intended to provide you notice of our information management practices, including the types of information gathered and how it is used and safeguarded. Your use of this Site constitutes acceptance of this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use, which are hereby incorporated by reference. Please review this Privacy Policy periodically, and especially before you provide any personally identifiable information.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the providing or use of any personally identifiable information other than through the Site.

Personally Identifiable Information

You are able to visit and use our Site without revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself. However, in order to access certain areas, options and services of the Site, we may ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information. If you choose not to share such information, you may be unable to access certain areas, options and services. EraGen (and its third party partners who provide services on EraGen’s behalf) collect personally identifiable information about you only if you voluntarily provide it to us, which is at your sole discretion.

EraGen does not share, disclose or sell any personally identifiable information collected at our Site with other companies or organizations. EraGen may collect some personally identifiable information about you at different times depending which services or portions of the Site you may be utilizing. Besides the information we may request from you, we may also collect information that we can use to improve our service and performance. This information does not identify you personally. EraGen does not record what Internet sites you visit.

The Use of Cookies to Collect Information

We may store cookies on your computer to improve the quality of your visit to our Site. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We use “cookie" technology for several purposes. First, we use it to track general information about our users. The information collected through cookies is non-personally identifiable information and we may use this information for statistical and market research purposes. We also use cookies to establish a link between your computer and EraGen. This link assures that, when you return to EraGen, you will be able to log in without the necessity of providing some or all of your login information, or help us to avoid asking for the same information on your return visits to the Site. You have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies. Refer to your browser’s instructions or “Help” button to learn more about cookies.

This Site may also use pixels, or transparent GIF files, to help manage online advertising. These GIF files may be provided by our third party ad management partners. These files enable these partners to recognize a unique file on your web browser, which in turn enables us to learn which advertisements bring users to our Site.

We may collect certain aggregate data called web log information (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) and use cookies when you visit the Site (collectively, the “Aggregate and Statistical Data”). For instance, when you visit the Site, our web server will automatically recognize some non-personal information, including but not limited to the date and time you visited the Site, the pages you visited, the referrer (the website you came from), the type of browser you are using, the type of operating system you are using, and the domain name and address of your Internet service provider. Neither the web log information nor cookies (as discussed below) collects any personally identifiable information. They do not contain personally identifiable information, such as your name or e-mail address, and in no way are used to identify our users. Aggregate and Statistical Data helps us design the Site, to identify popular features, and for other managerial purposes.

The Use and Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information

We may use the personally identifiable information we collect about you (either specific or in aggregate) to help us: (a) maintain accurate accounts, (b) provide and change services and billing, (c) answer your inquiries, (d) market services and products, (e) to help make our services and Site useful to you, and (f) for other purposes which are evident from the circumstances or about which we inform you when we collect information from you.

We will not sell, share, or otherwise distribute your personally identifiable information to third parties except as provided in this Privacy Policy. We may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties who act for or on our behalf, for further processing in accordance with the purpose(s) for which the data was originally collected or may otherwise be lawfully processed, such as services delivery, evaluating the usefulness of this Site, marketing, data management or technical support. These third parties have contracted with us to only use your personally identifiable information for the agreed upon purpose, and not to sell your personally identifiable information to third parties, and not to disclose it to third parties except as may be required by law, as permitted by us or as stated in this Privacy Policy.

Your personally identifiable information as collected from you may also be transferred to a third party in the event that all or a portion of EraGen’s business, including this Site or a part of it and the customer data connected with it, is sold, assigned or transferred. Also, your personally identifiable information may be disclosed to a third party if we are required to do so because of an applicable law, court order or governmental regulation, or if such disclosure is otherwise necessary in support of any criminal or other legal investigation or proceeding here or abroad.

Information Security

We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that whatever personally identifiable information you provide will be maintained in a secure environment. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or from our Site, and you provide such information at your own risk.

Accessing or Updating Your Personally Identifiable Information

If you have submitted personally identifiable information through the Site and would like that information deleted from our records, you would like to update or correct that information or you have questions or comments regarding our Privacy Policy, please contact us at our e-mail address below with the subject line “Privacy Policy Question”, and provide us with your name, postal address and any other information necessary to respond to your question. You may also "opt-out" of receiving e-mails and other communications from us by contacting us at the e-mail address listed below with the subject line “Opt-Out”.

Protection of Children's Personal Information

We do not publish content that is targeted to children. We do not intend to collect personally identifiable information from anyone under 18 and will not knowingly collect, maintain, or disclose such information. If you are under 18, you should not enter any personally identifiable information about yourself on our Site. If you are a parent or guardian who has discovered that your child under the age of 18 has submitted his or her personally identifiable information without your permission or consent, we will make reasonable efforts to remove the information from our database, at your written request. To request the removal of your child's information, please send us an e-mail to the address below and be sure to include in your message the same information, including e-mail address that your child submitted.
