IgBioscience Privacy Policy

At IgBioscience we value your information. We have never and will never sell your details on to other companies or people.

We want you to be assured we have taken all possible steps to make sure your data is secure with us.

By visiting our website, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this policy.

Why We Updated Our Privacy Policy

On the 25th May 2018, the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) shall come into effect. Under this new law, European standards in data protection shall align with current technology standards.

This is good news for all individuals who are affected by data processing and shall maintain standards in relation to the security of your personal data.

We have now updated our Privacy Policy in accordance with the new General Data Protection Regulation

Where We Store Our Data

We use technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal data. Electronic data is kept on secured computers and storage while non-electronic data is also stored securely.

We keep the data we store to a minimum that allows us to deal with you as a client or supplier.

Cookies

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive.

Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used (see the section on Google Analytics below). This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to your needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

Google Analytics

We use a third party service called Google Analytics to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site.

The information collected is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone.

We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting the website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available on their website. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Mailing Lists

If you join our mailing list we will only send you useful information.

The only information we collect is to be able to send you a newsletter and personalise it, for example with your first name and your email address.

We have never and would never sell or rent your details to another business or organisation.

Online Shop

If you buy something from us via our online store we only collect the information from you to allow us to manage and process your order and deliver any goods or services to you.

We use a third-party for payment processing [PAYPAL] so that your card and payment details are not held on our website.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Links to other websites

The website may contain links to other websites. Once you have used these links to leave the site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement.

You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
