Also, from time to time, server logs may be reviewed for security purposes – e.g., to detect unauthorized activity on the Services. In such cases, server log data containing IP addresses may be shared with law enforcement bodies so that they may identify users in connection with their investigation of the unauthorized activities.

• Merger, Sale, or Other Asset Transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing due diligence, reorganization, bankruptcy, receivership, the sale of company assets, or transition of service to another provider, then your information may be sold or transferred as part of such a transaction as permitted by law or contract.

Cookie POLICY

Introduction

This Cookie Policy Statement explains how Curavit uses cookies and other tracking technologies. It tells what these technologies are, the purposes for which they are used, and your rights to control usage of them.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small software file stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website.

Cookies set by the Site owner (Curavit) are referred to as "first-party" cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the Site owner (but with the owner's permission) are called "third party" cookies. These cookies are generally associated with a software vendor that provides services to Curavit. The parties that set third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the Curavit website and also when it visits certain other sites.

Why do we use cookies?

Curavit uses first and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are necessary for the operation of the Curavit Site: we refer to these as "essential cookies." Other cookies enable us to track the online behavior of our users, both individually and in aggregate. We use this information to understand better, improve and optimize the website experience for our users.

First-Party Cookies

We utilize session cookies, which allow us to identify your browser while you are logged in uniquely and to process your online transactions. Session cookies disappear from your computer when the web browser is closed, or computer is turned off. Session cookies are required for site operation. We also utilize persistent cookies to make it easier to log into and use the Site and Services. Persistent cookies remain on computers after the web browser is closed or the computer is turned off.

Third-Party Cookies

These cookies provide information that is used to the help us understand how our website is being used, to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, and to help customize the site for you.

Information gathered from third-party cookies and your browser can include:

• IP address
• Device identifiers (see below for more details)
• Web browser information
• Hardware and software information
• Page view statistics
• Browsing history
• Usage information
• Location information
• Time of access

Third-parties retain this data for varying periods of time.

Other Tracking Technologies

Web Beacons/Clear

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We also use web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Site. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function correctly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning. We may also embed clear gifs in email messages to track user responses.

This information is processed by us to provide reporting and improvement about the Site.

Device

When you access the Service by or through a mobile device (including but not limited to smart-phones or tablets), we may access, collect, monitor or remotely store one or more "device identifiers," such as a unique device identifier ("UDID"). Device identifiers are small data files or similar data structures stored on or associated with your mobile device, which uniquely identify your mobile device. A device identifier may be data stored in connection with the device hardware, data stored in connection with the device's operating system or other software, or data sent to the device by Curavit. A device identifier may convey information to us about how you browse and use the Site. A device identifier may remain persistently on your device, to help you log in faster and enhance your navigation through the Service. Some features of the Service may not function properly if use or availability of device identifiers is impaired or disabled.

Device identifiers are processed by us to provide information about Site usage and improve the operation of the Site.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by clicking on the appropriate opt-out links, or you can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies via your browser, you may still use our Site and Services, through your access to some functionality may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

As noted above, you may stop or restrict the placement of cookies on your computer or remove them from your browser by adjusting your web browser preferences.

More information about cookies and details of how to manage or disable them can be found on www.aboutcookies.org.

Cookie-based opt-outs must be performed on each device and browser that you wish to have opted-out. For example, if you have opted-out on your computer browser, that opt-out will not be effective on your mobile device. You must separately opt-out on each device. Advertisements on Third-Party websites that contain the AdChoices link and that link to this Privacy Policy may have been directed to you based on anonymous, non-Personal Data collected by advertising partners over time and across websites. These advertisements provide a mechanism to opt-out of the advertising partners' use of this information for interest-based advertising purposes.

Analytics Information and Interest-Based

Social Media Widgets. Our Website includes social media features such as the Facebook "Like" button and LinkedIn (that might include widgets such as the share this button or other interactive mini-programs). These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function correctly. These social media features are either hosted by a third-party or hosted directly on our Site. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.

Analytics. We may also use Google Analytics and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting to collect information regarding visitor behavior and visitor demographics on some of our Services and to develop website content. This analytics data is not tied to any Personal Data. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can opt out of Google’s collection and Processing of data generated by your use of the Services by going to http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

How often will you update this Cookie statement?

We may update this Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please, therefore, re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.

SMS / Text Messaging Program

When you provide your mobile phone number and affirmatively opt in through a Curavit pre-screening, enrollment, or study form, Curavit collects and processes that number for the purpose of sending you SMS messages related to your participation in a clinical research study.

Information collected. We collect the mobile phone number you provide, your affirmative opt-in record (including timestamp and the form through which you opted in), the content and delivery status of messages we send to you, and any replies you send (including STOP and HELP keywords).

How we use this information. We use your mobile phone number and SMS opt-in data to:

• Send you transactional SMS messages about your study participation, including scheduling links, appointment reminders, study app login credentials, missed-visit follow-ups, and study status notifications;
• Verify your identity and eligibility for study participation, including by confirming that the phone number you provide is associated with the name you provide using third-party identity-verification service providers;
• Process opt-out requests and honor STOP keywords;
• Respond to HELP requests;
• Maintain audit and consent records as required by applicable law and by mobile carrier requirements.

How we share this information. Mobile phone numbers and SMS consent information will not be sold, rented, or shared with any third party for marketing purposes. We share mobile phone numbers only with service providers who help us operate the SMS program or perform identity verification on our behalf — for example, Twilio (our SMS delivery provider) and third-party identity-verification service providers that match phone numbers to public-record subscriber information. These providers are bound by written agreements that restrict their use of the data to performing the service on our behalf and prohibit them from using your information for their own marketing purposes. We may also disclose this information when required by law or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Curavit or others.

Retention. We retain mobile phone numbers and SMS opt-in records for the duration of your participation in a Curavit study and for the period required by applicable law and regulatory recordkeeping requirements (typically the longer of seven years or the period required by the study sponsor and applicable regulations). Opt-out records are retained indefinitely so we can continue to honor your opt-out.

Security. Mobile phone numbers and SMS consent records are stored in our access-controlled study management systems and transmitted using industry-standard encryption.

Your choices. SMS consent is never required to participate in a Curavit study. You may opt out of SMS at any time by replying STOP to any message you receive from us, or by contacting us at info@curavitclinicalresearch.com. Opting out of SMS does not remove you from a study; the study team will continue to contact you by email or phone where appropriate. Standard message and data rates may apply.

For more information about the Curavit SMS program, including message types and frequency, see our Terms of Service.
