Thank you for visiting the Pharmakon website. We believe in safeguarding your privacy online, while helping you access all that our site has to offer. Below you will find the details of our privacy commitment to our visitors.
This privacy policy will inform you of the following:
Collection of personally identifiable information and how is used by Pharmakon
Pharmakon may collect personally identifiable and other information on this website. This information is used to identify and communicate with individuals who have expressed an interest in participating in our programs or provide reporting services to our clients. The information gathered on this website may be shared with the program sponsors and their respective affiliates or contractors for marketing or other purposes. Access to this website's content is restricted and Pharmakon does monitor access for security and diagnostic purposes. Access to this website is by invitation.
What are "cookies" and how they are used by Pharmakon?
A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages that have been visited. But the only personally identifiable information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can’t read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Pharmakon uses cookies to track user access to the website while the user session is active.
If you’ve set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use our site.
Third party websites and links from this website
Our website may provide links to third party websites not controlled by Pharmakon. The inclusion of any link does not imply Pharmakon’s endorsement of the external site company, its website or the services or products it promotes or sells. Pharmakon is not responsible or liable for the privacy policies of these third party sites. It is recommended that you check the specific privacy statements of any site before providing any personally identifiable information.
With whom does Pharmakon share my information?
As a general rule, Pharamkon will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information to external, non-affiliated companies except when we have your explicit permission or under the circumstances described below. In addition to the sharing of information with affiliated companies, Pharmakon may provide your personally identifiable information to third party vendors and service agencies we have engaged to help us provide a product or service or to provide us with advice (such as auditors or legal advisors). In addition, we outsource certain functions of our business and those agents may have access to your personally identifiable information. Any of these organizations to which we provide such personally identifiable information is also required to keep your personally identifiable information confidential in accordance with this privacy policy.
Pharmakon also reserves the right to disclose personally identifiable information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other web site users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. We may also disclose personally identifiable information without notice to you in response to a subpoena or when we believe in good faith that the law permits it or to respond to an emergency situation.
In the event Pharmakon or its subsidiaries or affiliates or their assets are sold, merged or otherwise involved in a corporate transaction, your personally identifiable information will likely be transferred as part of that transaction. We reserve the right to transfer your information without your consent in such a situation; provided that we will make reasonable efforts to see that your privacy preferences are honored by the transferee.
Pharmakon may share statistical or aggregated non-personally identifiable information about our visitors with business partners and other third parties. No personally identifiable information is supplied in these cases.
Our Policies Regarding Children
Pharmakon does not knowingly collect or use any personally identifiable information from visitors under 18 years of age. No information should be submitted to our website by guests under the age of 18 years, and visitors under 18 years old are not allowed to register for our programs or services. If you believe that we have information from or about anyone under the age of 18 years, please notify us via the information provided on the “Contact Us” page on this website.
Although we have tried to create a safe and reliable site, the confidentiality of any information transmitted to or from this site cannot be guaranteed. While Pharmakon takes reasonable steps to protect your personally identifiable information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction, you should always exercise caution when conveying personally identifiable information over the Internet. When disclosing any personally identifiable information, remain mindful that such information might be accessible by the public and, consequently, may be collected and used by others without your consent. Your use of the Internet and this site is solely at your own risk.
