The information PharmaXChange.info collects depends on how you choose to use the PharmaXChange.info.

  1. “Non- Personally Identifiable Information” Collected.

The PharmaXChange.info automatically tracks and collects certain information about your visit that does not generally identify you individually. Similar to other commercial web sites, the PharmaXChange.info uses standard web measurement and tracking technologies like “cookies,” (see explanation below, “Cookies”), web server logs, or other statistics programs, which keep records of traffic on the PharmaXChange.info. This data is generally anonymous information that does not personally identify you, e.g., “Google analytics data” such as:

  1. the domain name of the site providing you with Internet access (ISP),
  2. the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet, your browser type and version,

iii. type of operating system and platform you use,

  1. the average user session length,
  2. the number of hits and pages viewed,
  3. top search engines and keywords, and

PharmaXChange.info and/or its web service provider use this Non- Personally Identifiable Information in the aggregate to measure the use of the PharmaXChange.info and to administer the PharmaXChange.info. We also use this information to improve your online experience.

“Cookies” are small pieces of information that a web site transfers to a visitor’s hard drive. Your World Wide Web browser may have an option that allows you to accept cookies, reject cookies, or receive notification when a cookie is sent, but you should note that the use of restrictive browser settings may limit the functionality available to your browser when using the PharmaXChange.info. Any cookies and other Internet traffic tracking technologies utilized in connection with the PharmaXChange.info are not designed to gather any Personally Identifiable Information.

  1. “Personally Identifiable Information” Collected.

(a) Personally Identifiable Information about you is not collected unless you specifically provide it to PharmaXChange.info. For example, when you submit your email address for communication purposes (comments) or offer your contact information with the intention of being an author, you will be asked to provide certain Personally Identifiable Information. The Personally Identifiable Information we collect about you through such sources will vary, depending on the nature of the transaction and the information required to fulfill your request for our services, but may include, without limitation, first and last name, home and email addresses, home and business telephone numbers, website address, IP address, facsimile number, and/or other identifying information that permits PharmaXChange.info to contact you.

Your Personally Identifiable Information is stored on PharmaXChange.info computer servers (or those of its service providers).

(c) We may gather data about the areas of the PharmaXChange.info you visit or access. We do not use any of this navigational data about where you “as an individual user” go on the PharmaXChange.info or share any of this data with third parties. However, we do use and share navigational data in an aggregate, non-personal form to understand how our users as a group use the PharmaXChange.info.

Further, your Personally Identifiable Information, including any email submissions and their content, may be used in connection with customer-relations correspondence and may be retained for use in evaluating and improving our customer-relations and assistance programs. We may share Personally Identifiable Information you submit with our affiliates, as well as with unaffiliated third parties who perform services for PharmaXChange.info or who otherwise are involved in the fulfillment of your service request (e.g., information systems maintenance and development providers, data archiving, end user communication and similar services).

(b) PharmaXChange.info also may use this information to identify and develop products and services that may be of interest to you and/or share this information with certain third parties for direct marketing purposes with respect to special offers, products, services, programs, promotions, surveys, publications, invitations or other opportunities that may be of interest to you (for more information regarding such practices, see Section 1, “Your Privacy Rights,” above).

(e) You should be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable Information (e.g., user name, email address) on a bulletin board, chat room, comments, profile page or on any other community forum offered on the PharmaXChange.info, such information may be collected and used by others and may result in unsolicited messages from other parties.

When you register for subscribership on the PharmaXChange.info or activate a related service by clicking on a particular service link (i.e. RSS feed) on the PharmaXChange.info, you may be automatically registered to receive the services we offer and some of your Personally Identifiable Information may be transferred from PharmaXChange.info to those third-party service providers. By becoming a subscriber, you authorize us and our third-party service providers to send you email updates and information about promotions and special offers. We take care to require that our third-party service providers only use our subscriber’s data as necessary to provide the particular service and to give you updates on that service provider’s products and services.

In some instances where PharmaXChange.info provides co-registration, the co-registration partners allow you to opt-out of their subscription. If you choose to co-register with our partners and accept their terms of service, then you are automatically registered as a subscriber of their select web sites and your Personally Identifiable Information is transferred to those organizations. As a result, you may receive information from one of these web sites as any of their subscribers would. We advise you to review the privacy and data collection policies of the third-party partner sites for further information. In order to cancel your subscribership with any of these partners you will need to go directly to the partner’s site.

(i) Legal Authorities. We may also disclose Personally Identifiable Information in cases when we reasonably believe that it is necessary to identify someone who may be violating PharmaXChange.info policies or other terms of use, or who may be a threat to PharmaXChange.info or third-party rights, property, or personal safety.
