Welcome to Lentigen.com (the "Site"), which is owned and operated by Lentigen Corporation. This Privacy Policy describes our collection, use, and dissemination practices regarding information that you provide to Lentigen through this Site.
The Site provides an opportunity for Lentigen's clients, investors and other interested parties to learn more about Lentigen. The Site is particularly designed to provide our customer base – academic researchers, biotechnology researchers and life scientists – with content and services related to lentiviral vector technology and to help them accomplish biological procedures faster, more reliably, and in a cost-efficient manner.
Your use of this Site is subject to this Privacy Policy, which you may print or download. Whenever you submit information to Lentigen through the Site, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Lentigen reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time by posting the revised policy at this location, but such changes will not affect information provided by you prior to the effective date of the change unless you consent otherwise. Please check back for updates to the Privacy Policy.
When you register with Lentigen on this Site, you will be asked to provide basic contact information such as your name, organization, address, phone number, e-mail address, and fax number. On this Site, for example, we may collect and retain contact and other information from you in a number of ways, such as when you place an order, request e-mail updates or other information, or submit a feedback or contact form.
This Site collects various non-personally identifiable information from you in the course of your navigation of the Site, such as the URL of the site you came from, the browser version you use, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, IP ports, date/time, size of data transferred, pages you visit, and other "clickstream" data. Lentigen also uses "cookies" to enhance your Site visit. A "cookie" is information either temporarily or permanently stored in a file on your computer. You can set your browser to reject cookies, but that may limit your use of some convenience features at this Site.
Lentigen uses information collected by data collection and cookies to store your preferences, improve web site navigation, make personalized features and other services available to you, compile and analyze aggregate statistics and trends, and otherwise help administer and improve the Site. Where you provide registration information, cookies can also be used to identify you when you log onto the Site or portions of the Site.
Except as otherwise stated, Lentigen may use information it collects from you and others to respond to your requests, improve the content and services that Lentigen provides, communicate information to you, for our marketing and research analysis, and for other reasonable business purposes. Lentigen reserves the right to make full use of information that is not in personally identifiable form.
From time to time, Lentigen uses contact information obtained via this Site to send e-mail and postal mail supplying customers with the most recent product and service information. If you order products or services via our Site, Lentigen may contact you by e-mail to send you information about your order (e.g., order confirmations and shipment notifications). Lentigen may also contact Site visitors via e-mail regarding their account status, and about changes to any relevant agreements or policies.
Lentigen does not provide the personally identifiable information you supply to us to outside mailing lists. Lentigen may share information about you with Lentigen's employees, consultants, agents and other representatives, which are required to treat the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Lentigen takes reasonable steps online and offline to safeguard the information you provide to us. For example, all web pages transmitting personal or financial information are encrypted from your client PC to our servers using the standard known as SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). Beyond the SSL barrier your data is protected once it reaches our network through the use of secure multi-tiered firewalls. Portions of your data may also be encrypted on our storage server for additional security. We may disclose personally identifiable information that you provide via this Site: (1) to respond to law enforcement requests or where required by applicable laws, regulations, subpoenas or other court orders, (2) if we believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities or situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, and (3) in the event of any corporate restructuring, sale or assignment of assets, merger, divestiture, or other change of control involving Lentigen.
Because no system is 100% secure or error-free despite taking commercially reasonable steps, Lentigen does not promise, and you should not expect, that information you provide to Lentigen shall remain private under all circumstances. It is your responsibility to safeguard any passwords, ID numbers, or other special access features associated with your use of the Site. You should be aware that there is always some risk that an unauthorized third party could intercept an Internet transmission, or that thieves will find a way to thwart our security systems.
Opting out: If you do not wish to receive certain communications from Lentigen or any of its representatives, you may opt out by: (1) declining the service offered when registering or at other information collection points on the Site, or (2) informing us that you no longer wish to receive such communications. We will comply with such requests unless such communications are necessary for the administration of your account, required by law, or necessary to protect our rights.
You may at any time request access to a summary of the information you provided at web registration, and request corrections or updates to that information. Lentigen will make reasonable efforts to respond promptly to such requests, but reserves the right to limit such requests to one per year per individual. Further, our response to such requests may be limited to information under our direct control.
This Site contains links to the web sites of other organizations. Lentigen is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of other web sites, and unless otherwise specified, does not imply any relationship, sponsorship, or affiliation between Lentigen and these linked sites, or adoption or approval of the content of such sites.
For any requests or questions related to this Privacy Policy, or if you have concerns about how information you provide to Lentigen is being used, please contact customerservice@lentigen.com.
This Privacy Policy is effective as of November 14, 2005.
