Privacy Policy

Predicine, Inc. (“we”, “us” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. We have created this Privacy Policy to inform you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information and the choices you have associated with that information.
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected or processed online or offline through: the website located at www.Predicine.com, and all corresponding webpages and websites that link to this “Privacy Policy (the “Site”); any Predicine mobile application; our diagnostic devices; and laboratory analyses (collectively, the “Services”).
Before using our Services, please carefully read our Website Terms of Use and this Privacy Policy. By using this Site, you consent to the collection and use of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use, and any policies or agreements incorporated therein. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy or our Terms of Use, you should not use or access our Services.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU AND HOW WE COLLECT IT
We collect personal information when you use our Services. Personal information is any information that may be used to identify an individual, identifies you personally or could be used to identify you.
The types of personal information that we may collect about you include, but are not limited to: the information you provide to us, information collected automatically about your use of our services, information collected through our diagnostic devices, and information from third parties, including our business partners.
Information You Voluntarily Provide to Us. The personal information we collect on or through our Services may include:
• Information that you provide by filling in forms on our Site. This includes information provided at the time of registering to use our Site, subscribing to or purchasing our services, posting material or requesting further services. We may also ask you for information when you report a problem with our Site.
• Records and copies of your correspondence (including email addresses), if you contact us.
• Your responses to surveys that we might ask you to complete for marketing or research purposes.
• Details of transactions you carry out through our Site and of the fulfillment of your orders. You may be required to provide financial information, such as payment card information before placing an order through our Site.
• The name and email address of individuals to whom you wish to refer our Services.
• Your search queries on the Site.
You also may provide information to be published or displayed (hereinafter, “posted”) on public areas of the Site, or transmitted to other users of the Site or third parties (collectively, “User Content”). Your User Content is posted on and transmitted to others at your own risk. We cannot control the actions of other users of the Services with whom you may choose to share your User Content. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your User Content will not be re-posted or viewed by unauthorized persons.
Information Collected Automatically. As you navigate through and interact with our Services, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions and patterns, including:
• Details of your visits to our Site, including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, logs and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on the Site.
• Information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system and browser type.
• Information about your preferences to make your use of the Site more productive, via the use of Cookies. For more information on Cookies, please see Section 2.
Information Collected in Connection to Our Diagnostics and Diagnostic Devices. If you purchase or receive access to a Predicine diagnostic device, we will process the following information:
• Our diagnostic device will be used in an appropriately licensed laboratory, where the device will collect your biospecimen (usually your nasal swab sample) in order to process and provide the diagnostic results back to you.
• Once an appropriately credentialed laboratory receives a used diagnostic device, we may, for regulatory, quality, product development, or other purposes, further process any additional biospecimen remaining in the device. The biospecimen information is de-identified when it arrives at our laboratory, meaning it is not connected to your name or contact information, and identified only by a randomly generated number. Your biospecimen is securely destroyed after the laboratory completes its work, subject to laboratory legal and regulatory requirements.
Information From Third Parties. When you interact with any Predicine account on a social media platform, we may collect the personal information that you or the platform make available to us on that page or account, including your social media account ID and/or user name associated with that social media service, your profile picture, email address, friends list or information about the people and groups you are connected to and how you interact with them, and any information you have made public in connection with that social media service. The information we obtain depends on your privacy settings on the applicable social media service; we will comply with the privacy policies of the social media platform and we will only collect and store such personal information that we are permitted to collect by those social media platforms.

2. COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGY
Cookies are text files, containing small amounts of information, which are downloaded to your browsing device (such as a computer, mobile device or smartphone) when you visit or use our website or Services. Cookies can be recognized by the website that downloaded them — or other websites that use the same cookies. This helps websites know if the browsing device has visited them before.
There are session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie lasts while your browser is open and is automatically deleted when you close your browser. A persistent cookie lasts until you or your browser deletes the cookies or they expire.
Cookies set by us are called “first party cookies”, while cookies set by parties other than Predicine are called “third party cookies”. The parties that set third party cookies can recognize your device, both when you use the Services and when you use other websites or mobile apps.
Cookies collect and process both personal information, as well as information that does not identify you as an individual. To the extent that IP addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, we will treat these identifiers as prescribed under such applicable laws. If we combine non-personal information with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined.
In addition to cookies, we may use other technologies that are similar to cookies, like web beacons, flash cookies, or pixels to track how you use our Services.
• Web Beacons: Web beacons, or “clear gifs”, are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. Web beacons are placed on a website or in an email that alone or in conjunction with cookies compile information about your usage of or your interaction with the Services. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive or device, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on web pages. Similar to cookies, beacons primarily help us better manage content on our Services by informing us which content is effective.
• Flash Cookies: We may also use so-called “flash cookies” (also known as “Local Shared Objects” or “LSOs”) to collect and store information about your use of our Services. Flash cookies are commonly used for advertisements and videos.
• Pixels: A “pixel” or “tag” can be placed on a website or within an email for the purposes of tracking your interactions with our websites or when emails are opened or accessed; pixels are often used in combination with cookies.
The following types of cookies and tracking technologies are used on our Services:
• Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are essential because they enable you to use our Services. For example, strictly necessary cookies allow you to access secure areas on our Services. These cookies do not gather information about you for marketing purposes. This category of cookies is essential for our Services to work and they cannot be disabled.
• Functional or Preference Cookies. We use functional cookies to remember your choices so we can tailor our Services to provide you with enhanced features and personalized content. For example, these cookies can be used to remember your name or preferences on our Services. We do not use functional cookies to target you with online marketing. While these cookies can be disabled, this may result in less functionality during your use of our Services.
• Performance or Analytic Cookies. These cookies collect passive information about how you use our Services, including webpages you visit and links you click. We use the information collected by such cookies to improve and optimize our Services. We do not use these cookies to target you with online marketing. You can disable these cookies.
• Advertising or Targeting Cookies. These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests. Our third-party advertising partners may use these cookies to build a profile of your interests and deliver relevant advertising on other sites. You may disable the use of these cookies as set forth below.

Your Choices
Your browser may provide you with the option to refuse some or all browser cookies. You may also be able to remove cookies from your browser. You can exercise your preferences in relation to cookies served on our Services by taking the steps outlined below:
• First-Party Cookies. You can use the browser with which you are viewing this Site to enable, disable or delete cookies. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located within the “Help”, “Tools” or “Edit” settings). Please note, if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access secure areas of the Site. Also, if you disable cookies other parts of the Services may not work properly. You can find more information about how to change your browser cookie settings at https://www.allaboutcookies.org/.

We do not control third-parties’ collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. However, these third-parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way. In addition, most web browsers provide help pages relating to setting cookie preferences. More information may be found for the following browsers here:

Do Not Track
Some Internet browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari, include the ability to transmit “Do Not Track” or “DNT” signals. Since uniform standards for “DNT” signals have not been adopted, our Sites do not currently process or respond to “DNT” signals.
3. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION
We will only use your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy or as disclosed to you prior to such processing taking place. The purposes for which we may use your personal information include:
To Provide Our Services. When you access or use our Services, we process certain personal information about you to be able to provide you with our Services. Some examples of how we process your personal information in our Services include, but are not limited to:
• To coordinate and communicate about logistics and tracking of orders placed by appropriately licensed laboratory purchasers of our Services, and
• To pay for the Services
We cannot provide you with our Services without such processing of your personal information.
To Communicate with and Market to You. If you sign up for our Services, you will receive Service-related communications. Our Service-related communications may include transactional messages about your account, billing information, your results, surveys, support, customer service, research you may be interested in or are participating in, policy changes, or other Service-related notifications. We may also use your personal information for marketing, promotional, or sweepstakes related communications and initiatives. You can manage your email preferences and opt out of certain communications. However, service-related communications are necessary for us to continue to provide our Services to you.

To Enforce Our Terms, Agreements or Policies. To maintain a safe, secure, and trusted environment for you when you use the Services, we use your personal information to make sure our terms, policies, and agreements with you and any third parties are enforced. We actively monitor, investigate, prevent, and mitigate any suspected or actual prohibited activities on our Services. We are required to process your personal information for this purpose to provide our Services.

For Product Research and Development. We want to ensure our Services are continually improving and expanding so that we meet and exceed your needs and expectations. To do so, we may process your personal information to improve, optimize, or expand our Services or features of our Services. We do so by processing information about your use of the Services, any information you provide to us, and by measuring, tracking, and analyzing trends and usage in connection to your use or the performance of our Services. We take additional security measures when processing your personal information for such purposes, such as by de-identifying (or “pseudonymizing”) your personal information and limiting access to such data. Without processing your information for such purposes, we may not be able to ensure your continued satisfaction when using our Services.

For Scientific Research and Clinical Trial Support. Predicine may use your de-identified or pseudonymized personal information conduct, whether independently, in collaboration with third parties, or sponsored by a third party, scientific research aimed at the creation of generalizable knowledge. Research may ultimately be published in a peer-reviewed journal or commercialized either by Predicine or a third party, but will not include your name or other information. In addition, the Predicine Services, including our devices, may be used to support clinical trials. Information collected through our Services as part of a clinical trial may be used by Predicine for any of the above-listed purposes, or any purpose permissible under applicable law.

To Comply with Applicable Laws. We may be required to process your personal information under certain laws and regulations, such as tax or healthcare laws. We will also process any and all information to law enforcement agencies or others if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with legal or regulatory process (such as a judicial proceeding, court order, or government inquiry) or obligations that we may owe pursuant to ethical and other professional rules, laws, and regulations; (b) enforce the Predicine Terms of Use and other policies; (c) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; or (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Predicine, its employees, its users, its clients, and the public. We cannot provide the Services to you without such processing.
We may also use your information to contact you about our own and third parties’ goods and services that may be of interest to you. If you do not want us to use your information in this way, please email us at privacy@Predicine.com to opt out.
