5. How We Disclose Personal Information

We may disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients:

Service Providers and Contractors

We may disclose information to vendors that provide website hosting, cloud storage, cybersecurity, analytics, customer relationship management, email delivery, marketing, event registration, payment processing, recruiting, professional services, and other operational support.

These providers are authorized to process information only as necessary to provide services to us and subject to applicable contractual restrictions.

Affiliates

We may disclose information to our parent, subsidiaries, affiliated companies, or related organizations, including United States Pharmacopeia, for legitimate business and administrative purposes, subject to applicable law.

Professional Advisers

We may disclose information to attorneys, accountants, auditors, insurers, consultants, and other professional advisers.

Business Partners and Event Sponsors

When you register for or participate in a jointly offered event, course, webinar, or program, we may disclose relevant information to participating business partners, speakers, venues, or event sponsors when disclosed at registration or otherwise permitted by law.

Government Authorities and Legal Recipients

We may disclose information when we believe disclosure is required or appropriate to comply with a law, regulation, subpoena, court order, governmental request, or other legal process.

We may also disclose information to protect the rights, property, safety, and security of Pharmatech, our clients, website visitors, employees, or others; enforce agreements and policies; or detect and prevent unlawful or fraudulent conduct.

Business Transactions

We may disclose or transfer information in connection with an actual or proposed merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, sale of assets, or other corporate transaction.

At Your Direction or With Your Consent

We may disclose information to another party when you direct us to do so or provide your consent.

6. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

Pharmatech does not sell personal information in exchange for money.

Certain analytics, advertising, or marketing technologies may constitute the “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or a “sale” under broadly defined state privacy laws, even when no money is exchanged. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies, web beacons, pixels, tags, software development kits, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website usage, measure performance, protect the website, and support communications and marketing.

These technologies may be categorized as:

  • Strictly necessary technologies, which support essential website functionality and security;
  • Functional technologies, which remember preferences and enhance website features;
  • Analytics technologies, which help us understand how visitors use the website; and
  • Advertising or targeting technologies, which may measure campaign performance or tailor communications and advertisements.

You may manage cookies through your browser settings and, when available, our cookie preference tool. Disabling certain technologies may affect the functionality of the website.

Third parties that provide analytics, advertising, embedded media, or social-media features may collect information about your activity over time and across different websites. Their practices are governed by their own privacy policies.

8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not currently a universally accepted standard for responding to traditional Do Not Track signals, our website may not respond to those signals.

Where required by applicable law, we process legally recognized opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for the browser or device from which the signal is sent.

You may need to submit a separate request if you want the opt-out associated with additional browsers, devices, or an identifiable account.

9. Marketing Communications

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by selecting the unsubscribe link included in the message or contacting us at privacy@pharmatechassociates.com.

Even after you unsubscribe from marketing communications, we may continue sending non-promotional messages concerning an existing business relationship, event registration, transaction, security matter, or legal notice.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information for no longer than reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Retention periods may vary based on:

  • The nature and sensitivity of the information;
  • The purposes for which it was collected;
  • The duration of our relationship with you;
  • Contractual, legal, regulatory, accounting, and reporting obligations;
  • Applicable limitation periods;
  • Security, fraud-prevention, and dispute-resolution needs; and
  • Whether the information is needed to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

When information is no longer reasonably necessary, we may delete, deidentify, or securely dispose of it.

11. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure, or misuse.

No website, electronic transmission, storage system, or security measure is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by us.

If we become aware of a security incident involving personal information, we will investigate and provide any notifications required by applicable law.

12. International Data Transfers

Pharmatech is based in the United States. We and our service providers may process and store personal information in the United States and other countries where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

When required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers of personal information. By interacting with us, you understand that your information may be processed in jurisdictions outside your country of residence, subject to applicable law.

14. Children’s Privacy

Our website and services are intended for business and professional audiences and are not directed to children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the website. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact privacy@pharmatechassociates.com so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete the information.

15. California Privacy Rights

This section applies to California residents to the extent Pharmatech is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, collectively referred to as the “CCPA.”

Categories of Information Collected and Disclosed

During the preceding 12 months, we may have collected the following categories of personal information:

  • Identifiers;
  • Personal information described in California Civil Code Section 1798.80;
  • Characteristics of protected classifications when voluntarily provided or required for employment-related purposes;
  • Commercial information;
  • Internet or other electronic network activity;
  • Geolocation information;
  • Audio, electronic, or visual information;
  • Professional or employment-related information;
  • Education information;
  • Sensitive personal information when reasonably necessary for recruiting, security, accommodation, or legal-compliance purposes; and
  • Inferences drawn from other personal information.

We may have collected these categories from the sources described in Section 3 and used them for the purposes described in Section 4.

We may have disclosed these categories for business purposes to service providers, contractors, affiliates, professional advisers, business partners, government authorities, and transaction participants as described in Section 5.

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes that require a right to limit under the CCPA unless otherwise stated in a notice provided at collection.

Your California Rights

Subject to applicable exceptions and verification requirements, California residents may have the right to:

  • Know and access the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about them;
  • Request information about the sources, purposes, and categories of recipients associated with their personal information;
  • Delete personal information we have collected from them;
  • Correct inaccurate personal information;
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information;
  • Limit certain uses and disclosures of sensitive personal information when the right applies;
  • Receive portable information in a readily usable format; and
  • Receive equal service and pricing without unlawful discrimination for exercising privacy rights.

Exercising Your Rights

You may submit a privacy request through:

Please describe the nature of your request and provide sufficient information for us to identify relevant records and reasonably verify your identity.

We may request additional information to verify your identity or authority. We will use information submitted for verification only to process and document the request.

We may deny or limit a request when permitted by law, including when we cannot verify the requester, the request is excessive or manifestly unfounded, or the information is subject to a legal exception.

Authorized Agents

A California resident may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on the resident’s behalf.

We may require proof that the agent has written authorization and may separately verify the resident’s identity or confirm that the resident authorized the request, unless the agent holds a valid power of attorney under applicable California law.

Response Timing

We will acknowledge and respond to verified requests within the periods required by applicable law. We may extend the response period when reasonably necessary and permitted by law, and we will notify you of an extension.

Requests to Opt Out

When applicable, requests to opt out of sale or sharing do not require identity verification. We may request information reasonably necessary to identify the browser, device, or account associated with the request.

We will honor applicable opt-out preference signals as required by California law.

Financial Incentives

We do not offer financial incentives or price or service differences in exchange for the collection, retention, sale, or sharing of personal information unless described in a separate notice of financial incentive.

16. California “Shine the Light” Disclosure

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 may permit California residents with an established business relationship with us to request information regarding certain disclosures of personal information to third parties for their own direct-marketing purposes.

Pharmatech does not disclose personal information to third parties for their own direct-marketing purposes without providing any choices required by applicable law.

Questions regarding this section may be submitted to privacy@pharmatechassociates.com.

We may disclose applicant information to recruiting platforms, background-check providers, professional advisers, service providers, affiliates, governmental authorities, and others involved in the recruitment process.

Applicant information may be retained for the duration of the recruitment process and afterward as reasonably necessary for legal compliance, recordkeeping, future opportunities, and dispute resolution.
