Sanofi pasteur is strongly committed to maintaining your privacy when you visit our site. This Privacy Policy outlines the kind of information sanofi pasteur and its
affiliates may collect when you visit our web site and how sanofi pasteur uses such information. Some of the information we keep on our web server is information
that you volunteer to provide through forms and some is collected automatically. Unless you volunteer to submit personal data yourself, sanofi pasteur will not
collect any information from which individual visitors can be identified nor will sanofi pasteur employ any technology that is aimed at identifying a visitor.
Information Automatically Collected and Stored
Sanofi pasteur measures the performance of its site in order to improve and customize it in favor of our visitors. During your visit, sanofi pasteur automatically
collects and temporarily stores the following information about your computer and your visit:
- The domain and host from which you access the Internet
- The Internet address of the web site from which you linked directly to the sanofi pasteur and sanofi-aventis sites, if applicable
- The date and time you arrived at our site and how long you spent on the site and which pages you visited
- Your Internet protocol (IP) address and
- Your computer's operating system and browser software
Sanofi pasteur may entrust third parties with the described performance measurement data. Such third parties will be required to observe our privacy standards,
to provide us only with aggregated information, to use the information collected only for the purposes for which they have been retained by sanofi pasteur,
and to destroy the information afterwards.
Some sanofi pasteur web sites may deposit certain bits of information called "cookies" in a visitor's computer. Generally, a cookie assigns a
unique number to the visitor that has no meaning outside the assigning site. Cookies can tell us how and when pages in a web site are visited and by how many people.
This technology does not collect an individual visitor's identifying information; rather, this information is also in an aggregate form. The purpose of this technology
and the information it provides is again to help us improve our web sites. Most web browsers allow the user to deny or accept the cookie feature. However, please note
that cookies may be necessary to provide you with certain features (e.g. customized delivery of information) available on the sanofi pasteur site. Further information
about cookies can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/info/cookies.htm.
Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Only when specifically requested by you will the information we collect be used to respond to your inquiries, fulfill e-mail messaging programs, and notify you about
new content or services on our web sites. If you decide you no longer wish to receive postal mailings and/or e-mails from us, please let us know by sending e-mail or
writing to us and telling us you no longer wish to receive postal mail and/or e-mail. Please provide us with your exact name, postal address, and/or e-mail address.
We will be sure your name is removed from our mailing list, and afterward we will delete your personal information from our records.
Sanofi pasteur will use personal information only for the purpose indicated to you when you provided it. Sanofi pasteur will not disclose, sell, rent or exchange such
personally identifiable information to any other organization or entity unless you are first notified and expressly agree to it, or as otherwise required by law or
set out in this Privacy Statement.
In order to employ "personalization" functionality, you will be asked to provide personal information (e.g. name, address, telephone number, and
e-mail address). No material consequences will result from your refusal to submit such information except that you may not obtain the functionality or receive information
you requested. At any time upon your request, sanofi pasteur will delete or modify personal information that you provided earlier.
Sanofi pasteur will collect, use or disclose your personal information only with your knowledge and consent, except where required or permitted by law. Sanofi pasteur
will not make your consent a requirement to the supply of a product or a service other than as required to be able to supply the product or service. Consent can be
express or, in some circumstances, implied, and given in writing, by using or not using a check-off box, electronically, orally (in person or by telephone), or by your
conduct, such as use of a product or service. In determining the type of consent to obtain, sanofi pasteur will consider all relevant factors, including the sensitivity
of the information and your reasonable expectations. You may withdraw your consent at any time, on reasonable notice, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.
Sanofi pasteur will inform you of the implications of doing so.
The collection of personal information by sanofi pasteur will be limited to what is necessary for the purposes which it identifies. We will collect personal information
by fair and lawful means. Personal information will not be used or disclosed for purposes other than those for which it was collected, except with your consent or as
required or permitted by law. It will be retained only as long as necessary for these purposes or as required by law. We will keep your personal information as accurate,
complete and up-to-date as necessary for the purposes for which it is to be used.
The type of personal information which we collect from you depends on the type of transaction involved. Sanofi pasteur asks for your name, address, email address,
and other personal information when you create an account online. You will also be asked for personal information when you make an online purchase. This information
is used to process your orders and to allow us to communicate with you. The information also enables sanofi pasteur to customize products or services to better meet
your preferences and to offer you products and services from sanofi pasteur and other sources that may be of interest to you.
To process and/or fulfill your order, process credit card payments, deliver packages and/or provide customer service, trusted third parties may be used to perform the
required function, and in such cases, appropriate personal information will be given to them to allow for the service to be provided. Contractual or other appropriate
means would always be used to ensure third party compliance with our privacy policy and all applicable privacy laws.
Sanofi pasteur will protect your personal information by security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, including through the use of the following
measures: physical (e.g., locked filing cabinets, restricted access, appropriate disposal of personal information), organizational (e.g., security clearances, access only
on a "need to know" basis), technological (e.g., passwords, encryption) and training of employees. We have adopted physical and technological
processes and procedures to keep your personal information safe and secure. The personal information you provide when you establish an on-line account or place an on-line
order is secured using Secure Socket Layers ("SSL") encryption technology. We use this SSL technology to prevent such information from being intercepted
and read as it is transmitted over the Internet to our own servers. Only when it reaches the sanofi pasteur servers is your information decrypted and then stored on restricted
access computers located at restricted access sites. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and your computer.
Upon request, sanofi pasteur will inform you of the existence, use and disclosure of personal information relating to you, and give you access to that information. You have
the right to challenge the accuracy and completeness of your information and have it amended as appropriate. However, in certain circumstances permitted by law, this
information will not be disclosed to you. Some examples of these circumstances are information that contains references to other individuals, that cannot be disclosed for
legal, security or commercial proprietary reasons, or that is subject to solicitor-client or litigation privilege.
Sanofi pasteur will inform individuals who make enquiries or lodge complaints about its enquiry or complaint procedures, as applicable. If a complaint is found to be justified,
we will take appropriate measures, including, if necessary, amending our policies and practices.
Of course, this Policy is subject to PIPEDA and/or any other applicable privacy laws and sanofi pasteur's right to change this Policy at any time.
Sanofi pasteur reserves its right to amend this policy at any time. The privacy policy does not create any contractual or other legal right in or on behalf of any party.
