We are committed to respecting your online privacy and recognize your need for appropriate protection and management of information you share with us. BioParantaInc. has established this privacy and security policy (“Privacy Policy”) to let you know what information we may collect from you on the Site and how we may use and share that information. Please take a moment to review the terms of our Privacy Policy. By using the Site, you agree to accept the terms of our Privacy Policy. Except as expressly provided herein, this Privacy Policy applies only to information that we collect on the Site and does not apply to information which we may collect by other means.
 
 
 
II. Personal Information; Changes to Personal Information
 
Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, first and last name, home or other physical address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card information.
 
In general, you can visit the Site without telling us who you are or revealing any Personal Information about yourself. However, in order to make a purchase on the Site, we require you to register for an account and provide Personal Information. Moreover, other features or services may require you to provide Personal Information. For example, we may collect certain Personal Information if you choose to subscribe to a mailing list, participate in special offers, sweepstakes or other promotions, participate in our loyalty program or send questions or comments to us via e-mail. Of course, should you purchase any products on the Site, we will collect Personal Information from you, which we will use to fulfill your order and for other purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy. Depending on how you use the Site, we may also collect Personal Information if you include Personal Information in any content you upload to the Site, e.g. as part of a product review, by posting to our Facebook page or other social media site, or as part of a post in a chat room. We will also collect Personal Information from you where you voluntarily provide it to us, including where you submit a question to our customer service personnel or where you submit a job application through our Site.
 
We may also collect certain demographic information (such as gender or age) and information about your interests and preferences (“Preferences Information”).
 
 
 
III. How We May Use Your Information
 
With respect to the Personal Information we collect, we may retain and use that information for several purposes. For example, we may use your Personal Information in order to process and fulfill any purchases you make on the Site (including any customary follow-up or confirmation communications regarding such purchases), process your catalog requests, enter you into sweepstakes you request, establish an account for you, update your loyalty account, respond to your questions, send e-mails to our mailing list subscribers, or, if you include Personal Information in any content uploaded to our Site, e.g. as part of a product review or a post in a chat room, as part of displaying or distributing such uploaded content or as part of our marketing and promotional activities. We may also use Personal Information to ensure compliance with our policies and applicable law. We may use your Personal Information in combination with any other information (whether personally identifiable or not) that we have collected from you in our stores or that we have otherwise acquired. We may also use the information that you provide as part of an application for employment as part of the application process, but we will not use such information for any other purpose. We use your e-mail address as a customer identifier on the Site. In addition, we may send you periodic communications by e-mail or regular mail, such as news updates, special promotional offers or information on our products or services which may be of interest to you. If you later wish to opt-out of receiving such promotional communications from us at any time, simply follow the instructions in Section VI.

V. Security
 
BioParanta Inc. intends to take reasonable steps to protect the Personal Information that you share with us from unauthorized access or disclosure. When you transmit Personal Information to our servers, your information is protected by both a “firewall” (a combination of computer hardware and software that helps keep unauthorized visitors from accessing information within our computer network) and industry standard SSL (secure socket layer) encryption. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or stored on a server can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your Personal Information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your Personal Information.
 
If you create an account on the Site, you may be asked to choose a password for your account, in which case your online account information shall be protected by your password. We recommend that you do not disclose your password to any other person. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account.
 
Credit card information collected by BioParanta Inc. is encrypted through SSL before it is transmitted over the Internet.
