Third parties such as advertising networks, analytics providers and widget providers may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you access or use our Site. Your browser settings may also allow you to transmit a “Do Not Track” signal when you visit various websites. Like many websites, our website is not designed to respond to

You may, however, disable certain cookies as discussed in the Cookies Information section (e.g., by declining cookies), but such disabling may impair use of the Site.

When you use the Site, we may send one or more cookies (which are small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters) to your computer or mobile device, to track information about your use of the Site, help analyze our web page flow, customize our content, measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. We do not currently use targeting or tracking cookies on the Site but may use certain cookies to personalize your experience or obtain analytics from your use of the Site. By using the Site, you consent to the use of such cookies and the collection of your Personal Information by us and our third-party service providers for this purpose.

Uses of Personal Information
We use your information, including Personal Information, for the following purposes:
When We Disclose Information
We may disclose your information, including Personal Information, as follows:
We will not sell or share (as such terms are commonly defined by applicable US privacy and data protection laws) Personal Information with third parties without your consent.
You may decline to share certain information with us, in which case we may not be able to provide to you some of the features and functionalities of the Services.
Third-Party Links
The Services may contain links to third party websites and applications. Any access to and use of such linked websites or applications is not governed by this Privacy Policy, but instead is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites or applications. We are not responsible for the information practices of such third parties. Please read such third parties’ privacy policies to understand their privacy practices.
Data Security
We have implemented measures designed to protect your Personal Information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction; however, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, so we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us through the Services, and you do so at your own risk. We also cannot guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of any of our safeguards. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained in the Services.
Retention
We retain Personal Information as long as it is reasonably necessary and relevant for the purposes for which it was collected or our operations, and/or to comply with the law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigation, or enforce any applicable terms of service or other agreements.
Visitors from Outside the United States
The Services are controlled and operated by Genista in the United States, which may have fewer protections than your jurisdiction of residence. If you choose to access the Services from outside the United States, you acknowledge that you will be transferring your information, including Personal Information, outside of those regions to the United States for storage and processing, as necessary to allow you to use the Services.

If you are a parent or guardian and discover that your child under
16 years of age has provided us with information, please alert us at privacy@genistabio.com to request that we delete the information from our systems.
