Our Policies
What Does This Website Privacy Policy Cover?
This Policy covers how we collect, use, and share website user data.

Collection of Data
This Policy covers the treatment of two types of information collected on our websites:

Personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information, such as email address, name, phone number, etc., may be gathered when you access or use our websites. This information is only collected when it is volunteered by you – for example when you complete a form to sign up for a newsletter.
Non-personally identifiable information. This site may collect, at least temporarily, non-personally identifiable information such as: Internet Protocol (IP) address of computer being used; web pages requested; referring web page; cookies; browser type used; date and time; and other Internet tags and navigational data.

Use of Data
Personally identifiable information may be collected to respond to user requests for services or for marketing and outreach communications. Non-personally identifiable information may be collected to improve the our website user experience and for troubleshooting.

Cookies, Web Beacons and Other Similar Technologies
Our websites may partner with third parties, including Facebook (Facebook Pixel) or Google (Google Analytics), to use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from this site and elsewhere on the Internet and use that information as part of targeted advertising or remarketing. These companies collect information from across the Internet and are not controlled or managed by us. You can opt out of having your browsing data collected by these companies by managing your ads preferences or privacy settings on these companies’ websites.

Sharing of Data
Other than as required by laws that guarantee public access to certain types of information, or in response to subpoenas or other legal instruments that authorize disclosure, personally identifiable information is not disclosed without your consent.

Security
If our website collects restricted information, including but not limited to, electronic protected health information (ePHI) or personally identifiable information (PII), we require the use of the industry standard security protocol known as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Currently our sites should not ask you for any ePHI.

When following a link to another website, you are responsible for reading that website’s privacy policy and making sure that you agree with it and can abide by it. Links within our websites to commercial and external websites do not represent endorsement by the The Hypoxia Lab, our collaborators, or supporters.

This Website Privacy Policy is effective as of November 16, 2023. We may amend this policy from time to time. New versions of this policy are effective when they are posted at this URL. Unless stated in an updated version, use of the information that we collect will be subject to the version of the Policy that was in effect at the time such information was collected.
