Privacy Statement
Effective Date: January 1, 2017
Last Updated: December 31, 2016

This website (corenatherapeutics.com) is owned and operated by Corena Therapeutics GmbH. This Internet Privacy Statement applies to all our sites but some sites may require additional or different disclosures. If this is the case, we will post additional privacy statements appropriate to the information collected. Please ensure you review the privacy statement for the relevant site you visit.

We respect the privacy of visitors to this website and understand that information about you, your health, and your health care is sensitive. Except as otherwise provided by this website’s Internet Privacy Statement, we will not sell, rent or give away your Personally Identifiable Information to any unrelated third party without your permission. We developed this Internet Privacy Statement to provide information about our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide when you visit this website.

We encourage you to read this Internet Privacy Statement before using this website or submitting information. By using this website, you acknowledge that you understand and agree to the terms of the Internet Privacy Statement.

You can visit much of the website without telling us who you are or providing us with other Personally Identifiable Information; however, we do collect two types of information from you: (A) Personally Identifiable Information and (B) Non-Personally Identifiable Information, as both described below. By providing such information to the website you understand and agree that no relationship has been created between us and you, and we have no obligation to you whatsoever regarding that information beyond what we have stated herein.

  1. Personally Identifiable Information

“Personally Identifiable Information” is information that identifies you personally, such as your name, address, telephone number, email address or company name. We collect and store the Personally Identifiable Information that you have provided to us. Here are some examples of manners in which we may collect your Personally Identifiable Information:

  • We may collect your email address, first and last name, phone number, mailing address, medical history, and billing information if you register through the website or buy one of our products;
  • We may collect your first and last name and email address or phone number if you contact us with a question;
  • We may collect your first and last name, date of birth and email address if you choose to participate in a contest or sweepstake; and
  • We may collect your name and email address when we request your response to an online survey or when you ask to receive an online newsletter.

The above list provides an example of the Personally Identifiable Information that may be collected by us. From time to time, we may collect Personally Identifiable Information from you in other ways that are not described above. If you do not want us to collect your Personally Identifiable Information, please do not provide it to us. We intend to let you know how we will use such information before we collect it from you; if you tell us that you do not want us to use this information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your requests, we will respect your wishes. We maintain a record of your product interests and the purchases you make online or by phone.

  1. Non-Personally Identifiable Information

“Non-Personally Identifiable Information” does not identify you personally. For example, we may conduct research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behaviour based on the information provided to us from our server log files or from surveys. We do this to better understand and serve you. This research is compiled and analysed on an aggregated basis. You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser. However, if your settings block cookies and tracking, you may not be able to take advantage of the personalized features enjoyed by other users of our website.

We also may collect Non-Personally Identifiable Information from you in order to customise your experience, fulfil your requests for information, and improve our services. We may provide this Non-Personally Identifiable Information to third parties. For example, we might inform third parties about the number of users of our website and the activities they conduct while on the website. We also may provide trusted partners with general information regarding our users and visitors.

We will not treat as confidential any information that you provide that is not Personally Identifiable Information, such as questions, comments, ideas, or suggestions. You should be aware that we will be free to disclose through any means and use for any purpose such information in our sole discretion. If you do not want us to collect your Non-Personally Identifiable Information, please do not visit our website or provide it to us.

We may share or disclose your Personally Identifiable Information in the following instances:

  • To deliver services, such as information or newsletters you request, or to complete a transaction requested by you;
  • We may use your Personally Identifiable Information to contact you about products or services that we believe may be of interest to you;
  • We may also use your Personally Identifiable Information to send you newsletters, if requested by you;
  • To contact you in response to sign up forms such as Contact Us;
  • To alert you to special offers, updated information and other new products from us or to forward promotional materials;
  • To unaffiliated third-party service providers, agents or independent contractors who help us maintain our website and provide other administrative services to us (including, but not limited to, order processing and fulfilment, providing customer service, maintaining and analysing data, sending customer communications on our behalf, and entry collection);
  • To ensure the website is relevant to your needs;
  • To help us create and publish content most relevant to you;
  • To notify you about a material change to this Internet Privacy Statement or the terms of use, if necessary;
  • To comply with the law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary in order to conform to the requirements of law or comply with legal process served on us, protect and defend our rights or property or act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of our end users;
  • To third parties as part of any corporate reorganization process including, but not limited to, mergers, acquisitions, or sales of all or substantially all of our assets;
  • To track and analyse non-identifying and aggregate usage and volume statistical information from our visitors and customers and provide such information to third parties; and
  • To handle any physical or other type of threat made to you or others, to protect property or to defend or assert legal rights.

Except as described in this Internet Privacy Statement or at the time we request the information, we do not otherwise use, share or otherwise disclose your personal information to any third parties. In addition, as stated before, your Personally Identifiable Information may be shared with actual or potential parties to a contemplated transaction where we decide to reorganise or divest part or all of a business or a line of our business, without obtaining your consent or without any further notice to you. In such circumstances, we will seek written assurances that Personally Identifiable Information submitted through this website will be protected appropriately.

If you do provide us with Personally Identifiable Information, you agree that we may contact you through a variety of means such as postal mail, phone, or e- mail to provide you with information we believe may be of interest. Due to the international partners commercially linked to Corena Therapeutics GmbH, we may share your information with our business partner’s companies located in countries outside of the European Economic Area (including the United States). If you do not want your Personally Identifiable Information transferred in this manner, please do not provide it to us on the website. You always have the choice not to receive marketing information or calls. For instructions on opting out, please see the section entitled, “Update and Correction of Personally Identifiable Information”.

Non-Personal Information may be used as described above or in other ways as permitted by applicable laws, including combining Non-Personally Identifiable Information with Personally Identifiable Information.

You may contact us to update or correct much of your Personally Identifiable Information that you provide to us through the website other than the limited information described below under the Regulatory Requirements section, or to opt-out from our mailings and other services that you may have requested.

We have in place certain physical, electronic, contractual, and managerial safeguards to protect the security and privacy of your personal information.

In addition to technical safeguards, we also use physical controls and procedures to safeguard your Personally Identifiable Information.

We may also use the information to contact your healthcare professional to follow up regarding an unexpected event involving the use of any one of our products. You understand that in order to comply with the law, we may not be permitted to comply with your request to amend or remove Personally Identifiable Information that was provided to us by a healthcare professional or a consumer regarding an adverse event or reaction involving products.
