2. Information We Collect Through Automated Means
We collect certain information about your use of the Services and the devices you use to access the Services, as described in this Section. As discussed further below, we and our service providers (which are third party companies that work on our behalf), may use a variety of technologies, including cookies, SDKs, and similar tools, to assist in collecting this information.

Our websites. When you use our Website and app, we collect and analyze information such as your IP address, device types, browser types, browser language, operating system, the state or country from which you accessed the Services, software and hardware attributes (including device IDs) referring and exit pages and URLs, platform type, the number of clicks, files you download, App usage, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of time spent on particular pages, the terms you use in searches on our Services, the date and time you used the Services, error logs, and other similar information.

Location Information. When you use the Services, we and our service providers may automatically collect general location information (e.g., IP address, city/state and or postal code associated with an IP address) from your computer or mobile device. This information allows us to enable access to content that varies based on a user's general location (e.g., to provide you with accurate sales tax information and to deliver content customized to your location). We will ask your permission before collecting your precise GPS location information. In such instances, we will use your precise geo-location information to provide customized services, content, promotional offers, and other information that may be of interest to you. If you no longer wish for us and our service providers to collect and use GPS location information, you may disable the location features on your device. Please see your device manufacturer settings.

Our Use of Cookies and Similar Online Tools. To collect the information discussed in this Section, we and our service providers use web server logs, cookies, tags, SDKs, tracking pixels, and other similar tracking technologies. We use these technologies to offer you a more tailored experience. A web server log is a file where website activity is stored. An SDK is a set of tools and/or code that we embed in our Apps and software to allow third parties to collect information about how users interact with the Services. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a site, that enables us to: (i) recognize your computer/device; (ii) store your preferences and settings; (iii) understand the parts of the Services you have visited and used; (iv), enhance your user experience by delivering and measuring the effectiveness of content and advertising tailored to your interests; (v) perform searches and analytics; and (vi) assist with security and administrative functions. Tracking pixels (sometimes referred to as web beacons or clear GIFs) are tiny electronic tags with a unique identifier embedded in websites, online ads and/or email that are designed to: (1) collect usage information like ad impressions or clicks and email open rates; (2) measure popularity of the Services and associated advertising; and (3) access user cookies. As we adopt additional technologies, we may also gather information through other methods. Please note that you can change your settings to notify you when a cookie is being set or updated, or to block cookies altogether. Please consult the "Help" section of your browser for more information (e.g., Internet Explorer; Google Chrome; Mozilla Firefox; or Apple Safari). Please note that by blocking, disabling, or managing any or all cookies, you may not have access to certain features or offerings of the Services.

3. Information We Collect from Social Media and Other Content Platforms
When you "like" or "follow" us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or other social media platforms, we may collect some information from you including your name, email address, and any comments or content you post relevant to us. We also collect your information if you sign up for one of our promotions or submit information to us through social media platforms. If you access the Services through a third-party connection or log-in (e.g., through a social network or third-party authentication tool), you may allow us to have access to and store certain information from such third parties depending on your settings on such services. If you do not wish to have this information shared, do not use these connections to access the Services. For a description of how these third parties handle your information, please refer to their privacy policies and terms of use, which may permit you to modify your privacy settings. Similarly, if you choose to connect your App to third-party platforms or tools, or with other apps on your device (e.g., health or fitness monitoring platforms or tools, or your contacts, photos, or calendar), such third parties and tools may allow us to have access to and store additional information as it relates to your use of the Services (e.g., to integrate your fitness data within the Services or access your calendar to help you schedule an appointment). If you do not wish to have this information shared, do not initiate these connections.

4. Information We Receive from Other Sources
We work closely with third parties (including, for example, third party intermediaries, such as physicians, medical professionals, and pharmacies to provide you with the Services, as well as with advertising networks, analytics providers, marketing partners, and search information providers). Such third parties will sometimes provide us with additional Personal Information about you.

Purposes for How We Use Your Personal Information

In connection with providing, you with the Services, we may use your Personal Information for our business purposes to:

Aggregate/De-Identified Data. We may aggregate and/or de-identify any information collected through the Services so that such information can no longer reasonably be linked to you or your device and is no longer considered Personal Information ("Aggregate/De-Identified Information"). We may use Aggregate/De-Identified Information for any purpose, including for research and marketing purposes, and may also share such data with any third parties, including advertisers, promotional partners, and sponsors.

Online Analytics and Advertising

1. Online Analytics
We may use third-party web analytics services (such as those of Google Analytics (including Google Signals, Google User-ID, and other Google Analytics features) and Mix Panel) on our Services to collect and analyze usage information through cookies and similar tools; engage in auditing, research, or reporting; assist with fraud prevention; try to locate the same unique users across multiple browsers or devices to better tailor services and features; and provide certain features to you. If you have a Google account with personalized advertising enabled, through Google Signals, Google will also be able to gather for us analytics and engagement information from across the various devices you use to access the Services. To prevent Google from using your information for analytics (including cross-device tracking for personalization purposes), you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on by clicking here. And to opt out of Google Signals, please open your "Settings" app, locate, and tap "Google," select "Ads," and turn ON "Opt-out of Ads Personalization." You may also be able to disable cross-device tracking through your Android or Apple device-based settings. If you receive email from us, we may use certain analytics tools, such as clear GIFs to capture data such as when you open our message or click on any links or banners our email contains. This data allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our communications and marketing campaigns.

2. Online Advertising
The Services may integrate third-party advertising technologies (e.g., ad networks and ad servers such as Facebook, Google Ad Words, TikTok, Criteo and others) that use cookies, pixels, and other technologies to deliver relevant content and advertising for our products on the Services, as well as on other websites you visit and other applications you use. The ads may be based on various factors such as the content of the page you are visiting, information you enter such as your searches, demographic data, and other information we collect from you. These ads may be based on your current activity or your activity over time and across other websites and online services. We sometimes provide our customer information (such as email addresses) to service providers, who may "match" this information in de-identified form to cookies (or mobile ad identifiers) and other proprietary IDs, to provide you with more relevant ads when you visit other websites and mobile applications. We may also share customer information such as your email address with third-party advertising networks that use such information to better target advertising to you regarding our products and services, as well as other products and services, as you browse the internet. We neither have access to, nor does this Privacy Policy govern, the use of cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your device you use to access the Services by non-affiliated third-party advertising network services. To opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, visit the Google Ads Settings page. To update your advertising preferences with Facebook, click here. To update your advertising preferences with TikTok, click here. We do not control these opt-out links, whether these opt-out links change over time, or whether any company chooses to participate in the industry opt-out programs listed above. We are not responsible for any choices you make related to third-party links available through the Services. Please note that if you exercise the opt out choices above, you will still see advertising when you use the Services, but it will not be tailored to you based on your online behavior over time.

3. Mobile Advertising
When using mobile applications from us or others, you may also receive tailored in-application advertisements. We may use third-party service providers to deliver advertisements on mobile applications or for mobile application analytics. Each operating system, iOS for Apple phones, Android for Android devices, and Windows for Microsoft devices provides its own instructions on how to prevent the delivery of tailored in-application advertisements. We do not control how the applicable platform operator allows you to control receiving personalized in-application advertisements; thus, you should contact the platform provider for further details on opting out of tailored in-application advertisements. You may review the support materials and/or the device settings for the respective operating systems to opt-out of tailored in-app advertisements.

4. Notice Concerning Do Not Track
Do Not Track ("DNT") is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our websites for third party purposes, and that is why we provide the variety of opt-out mechanisms listed above. However, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser initiated DNT signals. To learn more about Do Not Track, you can do so here. Nevertheless, we strive to recognize universal opt-out signals where legally required.

5. Information We Receive from Other Sources
We work closely with third parties (including, for example, third party intermediaries, such as physicians, medical professionals, and pharmacies to provide you with the Services, as well as with advertising networks, analytics providers, marketing partners, and search information providers). Such third parties will sometimes provide us with additional information about you.

6. Use of Artificial Intelligence Technologies
We may utilize artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to enhance and improve our Services and users’ experiences. Specifically, we may use AI technologies for our legitimate business purposes to process the information we collect about you as described in this Privacy Policy to personalize content and recommendations; improve the efficiency and accuracy of our Services; enhance customer support through AI-assisted responses; analyze patterns and trends to improve our products and services; and detect and prevent fraud or security risks. While AI assists in many processes, critical decisions regarding your health care always involve human oversight from qualified healthcare professionals. The Personal Information we process through our use of AI systems is subject to the same data protection and security measures discussed in this Privacy Policy, including applicable data rights. In some cases, we may use third-party AI services. These services are subject to our vendor management processes, and we require them to adhere to appropriate data protection standards.

If such transfer is subject to additional mandatory restrictions under applicable laws, we will comply with such restrictions.

We may use any Personal Information that you post publicly is not confidential, and we may use it for any purpose (including in testimonials or other marketing materials). For example, if you submit a product review on one of our websites, we may display your review (along with the name provided, if any) on the Websites and on third-party websites. Any information you post openly in these ways will be available to the users you shared it with and potentially the public at large and may be accessible through third-party search engines.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on the state in which you live, you may have legal rights with respect to your information. The types of requests you may be able to make are as follows:

• Information about the categories of information we process, our uses of your information, our sources of such information and our disclosure of such information
• Access to the information that we have collected about you and a copy of certain information in a portable format
• Correct certain information we have about you
• Deletion of the information we have about you.

You may make a request by sending us an email at the email address below. Before we disclose, correct or delete information in response to any of these requests, we will need to verify your identity. Depending on the nature of your request, we may contact you for further information if appropriate to verify your identity. Note, however, that we will never ask you for sensitive personal or financial information when verifying your identity, and no employee will ask you to tell them your password. If you are an authorized agent submitting a request on their behalf, we may require proof of the written authorization you have received before processing the request. Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law. For example, if the request prevents us from completing a transaction you initiated, interferes with our legal obligations, affects legal matters including a customer user’s rights to data contained in their account, we cannot verify your identity, or compliance with your request is not legally required and would involve disproportionate cost or effort. But in any event, we will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe and provide you with an explanation. If we deny your request in whole or in part, the laws in your jurisdiction may provide you with rights to appeal our response. If applicable, we will provide you with information about your appeal options in our response to you. We will not discriminate against anyone that makes a rights request, but in some cases, we will not be able to provide our Services to you without that information. Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to appeal our decision to deny your request, if applicable. We will provide information about how to exercise that right in our response denying the request. You also may have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
Opt-out of sale of and disclosure of information for online targeted advertising. As explained in the Online Analytics and Advertising section above, and subject to applicable laws as discussed further below, we allow third parties to receive certain information such as cookies, IP address, device identifiers, hashed contact information, Browse behavior, and/or other activity to enable the delivery of targeted advertising to you. These activities may qualify as the “sale” of personal information or "sharing" or processing of personal information for targeted advertising, as defined in applicable law. Residents of certain states may opt out of the sale of personal information or sharing or processing of their personal information through cookies, pixels, and similar online tools for targeted advertising. If you have a legally recognized browser-based opt out preference signal turned on via your device browser (such as Global Privacy Control), we recognize such preference in accordance and to the extent required by applicable law. Note, if you use a cookie blocker such as Ghostery, it may block visibility of this tool. You can also use an authorized agent to submit a request to opt-out on your behalf if you provide the agent written permission to do so. We may require the agent to submit proof that you have authorized them to submit an opt-out request. In addition to advertising activities using cookies and pixels, we may also share user email addresses with advertising partners to provide you with more relevant advertising. To opt out of this activity, send us an email at the email address below. If you opt out, you may still receive advertising, it just may not be tailored to your interests. Please note, if you use different browsers, devices, or services you will need opt out on each browser or device where you want your choice to apply.

Your Data Rights. You have rights to your data. You have the right to be informed as to how we use your data and the rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing. You have the right to data portability and the right to object to data transfer or usage.

This may include the processing of information that is considered "sensitive data" or "sensitive personal information" under applicable laws, such as health information and information about sex life and sexual orientation (collectively referred to herein as "sensitive data"). You have a right to limit our use of sensitive data for purposes other than to provide the services or goods you request or as otherwise permitted by law, including our and our partner's processing of sensitive data for tailored advertising purposes.

The following is an example of specific rights in the state of California. If you reside in a state with additional privacy protections, you may have additional rights related to your PHI.
California Residents:

• Right to Access: In addition to the rights described above, California residents have the right to request access to their PHI in a readily usable electronic format, as well as any additional information required by California law. To request access, submit a written request to our Privacy Officer.
• Right to Restrict Certain Disclosures: California residents have the right to request restrictions on certain disclosures of their PHI to health plans if they paid out-of-pocket for a specific healthcare item or service in full. To request such a restriction, submit a written request to our Privacy Officer.
• Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA): California residents are protected by the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA), which provides additional privacy protections for medical information. We are required to comply with CMIA in addition to HIPAA.
• Marketing and Sale of PHI: California residents have the right to request that their PHI not be used for marketing purposes or sold to third parties without their authorization. To request a restriction on the use of your PHI for marketing or the sale of your PHI, submit a written request to our Privacy Officer.
• Minor's Rights: If you are a minor (under the age of 18), you have the right to request that certain information related to certain sensitive services, such as reproductive health, mental health, or substance use disorder treatment, not be disclosed to your parent or guardian without your consent. To request a restriction on the disclosure of such information, submit a written request to our Privacy Officer.

If you reside in a state other than California, please consult your state's specific privacy laws for information about any additional rights you may have regarding your PHI. You may also contact our Privacy Officer for more information about your rights under specific state laws.
California: For residents of California, we comply with the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA), as well as California's specific privacy laws related to marketing, sale of PHI, and minors' rights. We will obtain written consent before disclosing certain information and adhere to additional privacy protections, as required by California law.

This Privacy Policy does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information, or other practices, including data privacy and security process and standards of any third parties, including physicians and other health care providers using the Services, the manufacturer of your mobile device and other IT hardware and software, and any other third-party mobile application, website, or service to which our Services may contain a link. These third parties may at times gather information from or about you. We have no control over the privacy practices of these third parties. The collection, use, and disclosure of your information will be subject to the privacy policies of the third-party websites or services, and not this Privacy Policy. We urge you to read the privacy and security policies of these third parties.

How We Protect Your Information

We take a variety of technical and organizational security measures designed to protect both your PHI and Personal Information against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, and no means of electronic or physical storage, is secure. As such, you acknowledge and accept that we cannot guarantee the security of your information transmitted to, through, or on our Services or via the Internet and that any such transmission is at your own risk. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access the Services, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Services.

Privacy Information for California Residents

If you are a California resident, California law requires us to provide you with some additional information regarding how we collect, use, and share your "personal information" (as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA")).
Categories of personal information we collect and disclose. Throughout this Policy, we discuss in detail the specific pieces of personal information we collect from and about our users. Under the CCPA, we are also required to provide you with the "categories" of personal information we collect and the categories of third parties to which we disclose personal information. Please note that some of the information we collect through the Services (e.g., medical information), is subject to various health data privacy laws, and is therefore not subject to the CCPA. See the following chart to understand more about the categories of personal information we collect that are subject to the CCPA and the third parties to which we disclose it:

Category of Personal Information

• Identifiers and contact information (e.g., name, address, email address, account names, government-issued IDs and numbers)
• Commercial and transactional information (e.g., information about your purchases)
• Financial information (e.g., credit card info collected by our payment processors)
• Internet or other network or device activity (e.g., IP address, Browse history, app usage)
• Geolocation information (e.g., general location and precise location, with your permission)
• Demographic and statistical data (e.g., your gender, interests based on products and services you use)
• Physical characteristics (e.g., photos and videos of you)
• User-generated content (e.g., information you choose to post in our online forums)
• Customer service data (e.g., information you provide through a chat or call with us)

Your California Privacy Rights. CCPA Rights Disclosure. If you are a California resident, the CCPA allows you to make certain requests about your personal information. Specifically, the CCPA allows you to request us to:

• Inform you about the categories of personal information we collect or disclose about you;
• the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting your personal information;
• and the categories of third parties with whom we share/disclose personal information.
• Provide access to and/or a copy of certain information we hold about you.
• Delete certain information we have about you.

The CCPA further provides you with the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in applicable law) for exercising your rights. Please note that certain information may be exempt from such requests under California law. For example, we need certain information to provide the Services to you. We also will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before responding to a request. If you are a California resident and you would like to exercise any of your data rights under California law, email us at support@biogenixmdportal.com Please include your full name, email address and residential address associated with your use of our Services, along with the rights you would like to exercise, so that we can process your request in an efficient manner.
Sale of Personal Information. The CCPA requires companies that ""sell"" (as defined in the CCPA) your personal information to provide you with notice and an opportunity to opt out. Like many companies with an internet presence, we do work with third parties that provide marketing and advertising services to us, including interest-based advertising services, and these third parties may place tags, pixels, cookies, beacons, and other similar tracking mechanisms on our Website and App and collect your online identifiers. Because of the CCPA's broad definitions of ""sale"" and ""personal information,"" making certain online identifiers available to these companies so that they can provide marketing and advertising services to BioGenixMD may be considered a ""sale"" under the CCPA. To opt out of sharing your information with participating third parties for interest-based advertising, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative's Consumer Opt-Out link, the Digital Advertising Alliance's Consumer Opt-Out link, or Your Online Choices. Please note that these opt-outs are device and browser based, so you will need to opt out on each of your devices and browsers. For more information, see the Online Analytics and Advertising Section above. As discussed above in the "Online Advertising" section, we may also share information such as your email address with third-party advertising networks that use such information to better target advertising to you regarding our products and services, as well as other products and services, as you browse the internet. This sharing may be considered a "sale" under the CCPA. To opt out, please email us.
Shine the Light Disclosure. The California "Shine the Light" law gives residents of California the right under certain circumstances to request information from us regarding the manner in which we share certain categories of personal information (as defined in the Shine the Light law) with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

Retention of Your Information

We keep your information for no longer than necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. The length of time for which we retain information depends on the purposes for which we collected and use it and/or as required to comply with applicable laws.

Revisions to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in the law, our data collection and use practices, the features of our Services, or advances in technology. We will make the revised Privacy Policy accessible through the Services, so you should review it periodically. The date this Privacy Policy was last revised is identified at the top of the document. You are responsible for periodically monitoring and reviewing any updates to the Privacy Policy. If we make a material change to the Privacy Policy, we will provide you with appropriate notice in accordance with legal requirements. Your continued use of our websites after such amendments (and notice, where applicable) will be deemed your acknowledgment of these changes to this Privacy Policy.
