Please refer to those privacy notice(s) for information about how your personal information is handled in connection with the clinical trial.

How We Use Data
We also use data to identify you when you visit our sites, improve or create services and products, conduct analytics, connect with you (e.g., addressing your requests, inquiries, issues, or feedback), conduct marketing, find and prevent malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity or security incidents, enforce our policies and agreements, debug, find, and fix errors that impair our website and services, comply with legal or regulatory obligations, establish or exercise our rights, defend against legal claims, manage our relationships, for other reasons with your consent.
The sections above describe our main purposes in collecting your data, but often we have multiple purposes. As a result, our collection and processing of your data is based in different contexts on your consent, our need to perform a contract, our legal obligations, and/or our legitimate interest in conducting our business.
How We Share Data
In addition to the specific situations discussed elsewhere in this Notice we may share personal data in the following situations:
Other Disclosures with Your Consent. We may share your data with third parties when you consent or direct us to.
Your Choices
Some jurisdictions give you a right to make the following choices:
Revocation Of Consent. Where we process your personal data based upon consent, you may revoke consent. Note, if you revoke consent for processing personal data, we may no longer be able to provide you with some types of services. Not all the rights above are absolute, and they do not apply in all circumstances. We may limit or deny a request because the law permits or requires us to. We will not discriminate against individuals who exercise a privacy right.
Submitting Requests
You may exercise the above rights by contacting us via the contact information below.
We will require you to prove your identity when making most types of requests. We may verify your identity by phone or email. Depending on your request, we will ask for information such as your name and email address. We may also ask you to send us a signed declaration confirming your identity.
How We Protect and Retain Data
No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is fully secure. While we use reasonable efforts to protect personal data, we cannot guarantee its security. If we are required to inform you about a security incident, we will do so electronically, in writing, or by phone, as the law permits.
We keep your personal data for only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes in this Notice unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by. This includes the purposes of satisfying legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data. We also weigh the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the data, the purposes for which we obtained the data and whether we can meet those purposes through other means, as well as applicable legal requirements.
Transmission Of Data To Other Countries
We may process your data in a country with less stringent privacy laws than the laws in the country that you reside. Where possible, we treat personal data using the same privacy principles that guide the law of the country in which we first receive your data. By submitting your personal data to us you agree to the transfer, storage, and processing of your data in a country other than your country of residence including, but not limited to, the United States. You may also request a copy of any Standard Contractual Clauses we use for the transfer of your data outside of the UK and EEA, which includes the categories of information transferred by contacting us using the contact information below.
Third-Party Applications/Websites
We may provide links to websites and other third-party content or services that we do not own or operate. We have no control over the privacy practices of websites or services we do not own. For details about such third parties’ privacy practices, see their privacy notices.
Changes To This Privacy Notice
We may change our Notice and privacy practices. New notices will be published on our website. If changes are material, we will notify you by website notice. Also, if changes are material, the Notice that was in place when you submitted personal data to us will generally govern that data unless you consent to the new Notice.
