US Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 18, 2026

WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO READ THIS US PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY TO UNDERSTAND OUR DATA PRACTICES.

We at CPC Scientific Inc. (“CPC” or “we”) respect your concerns about privacy and value the relationship that we have with you. This US Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) explains what information we collect, how we use that information, to whom we disclose it, how long we keep it and how to contact us if you have any queries or concerns about our use of your Personal Information (defined below).

However, this Policy does not apply to our job applicants, current employees, former employees, or independent contractors (collectively, “Personnel”).

In the event of a conflict between any other CPC policy, notice, or statement and this Policy, this Policy will prevail as to our data practices unless stated otherwise.

In this Policy, the term “Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual, consumer or household, and includes personal data as described in Data Protection Laws. “Data Protection Laws” means any applicable law relating to the processing of Personal Information, including the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended (the “CCPA”). You may have certain privacy rights under such Data Protection Laws. We will handle your Personal Information in accordance with applicable Data Protection Laws, if any.

If you are a resident of California, please see “Your California Privacy Rights” below for more information about your privacy rights under the CCPA.

To contact us with questions about this Policy, or any other privacy-related issues, see “How to Contact Us”, below.

We will not attempt to reidentify data that we maintain as deidentified, except as may be necessary for the purpose of determining whether our anonymization processes satisfy the requirements of Data Protection Laws.

Retention of Personal Information

The length of time for which we retain each category of Personal Information described above depends on the purposes for which we collected and use it and as required to comply with applicable laws. We keep your Personal Information for no longer than reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected or processed.  The criteria used to determine the period of time such Personal Information is retained includes the nature and sensitivity of the Personal Information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the Personal Information, as well as on the basis of applicable legal requirements (such as applicable statutes of limitation).

Sources of Information

We may collect the Personal Information described above from the following sources:

  • From You Directly. We may collect Personal Information from you directly, such as when you communicate with us or visit our Sites.
  • From Our Customers or Potential Customers. We may collect Personal Information from our customers or potential customers in connection with the products and services we provide.

  • Social Media. Our Sites may, from time to time, contain links to and from social media platforms. You may choose to connect to us through a social media platform, such as YouTube, LinkedIn or X, and when you send us a direct message, we may collect additional information from you, such as your screen names, profile picture, and contact information through the social media platform so that we can respond to your direct inquiry. Additionally, please be advised that social media platforms may also collect information from you. When you click on a social plug-in, such as X’s “tweet” button, that particular social network plugin will be activated and your browser will directly connect to that provider’s servers.

(1) We Must Verify Your Request

When you request to exercise your privacy rights, we may ask you to provide verifying information, such as your name, e-mail, phone number or account information of the customer with which you are affiliated (if any). We will review the information provided and may request additional information via e-mail or other means to ensure we are interacting with the correct individual. We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify that we have Personal Information that relates to you.

We verify each request as follows:

  • Right to Access: We verify your request to know the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you by matching at least two data points you provide with data points we maintain.  We verify your request to know the specific Personal Information we have collected about you by matching at least three data points you provide with data points we maintain, together with a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the individual whose Personal Information is the subject of the request.

(2) Agent Requests

You may use an authorized agent to make a request for you, subject to our verification of the agent, the agent’s authority to submit requests on your behalf, and of you. Once your agent’s authority is confirmed, they may exercise rights on your behalf subject to the verification requirements described above.

Non-Discrimination/Non-Retaliation

We will not discriminate or retaliate against you in a manner prohibited by Data Protection Laws in response to your exercise of your privacy rights.

Links to Other Websites

Occasionally we may provide links to third-party websites for your convenience and information. The fact that we include links to other websites does not mean that CPC approves of or endorses any other third-party website or the content of that website. These services operate independently from CPC and are not under our control. These services may have their own privacy notices in place, which we strongly suggest that you review if you choose to visit any linked websites. With the exception of any service(s) to which we refer you to apply for a job with CPC or to receive other CPC specific services, we are not responsible for the content of these websites, any products or services that may be offered through these services, or any other use of these websites. We accept no liability for any statements, information, products, or services that are published on or are accessible through any websites owned or operated by third parties.

Personal Information of Consumers Under 16

We do not knowingly sell or share the Personal Information of individuals under 16. If you think we may have unknowingly collected Personal Information of a consumer under 16 years old, please contact us (see “How to Contact Us”, below).

Security

CPC has implemented physical, administrative, and technical safeguards that are designed to protect your Personal Information against loss and unauthorized disclosure, use, alteration, or destruction. However, no data transmissions over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Although we will comply with our data security obligations under applicable Data Protection Laws, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us and you understand that any information you transfer to CPC involves some risk.

By using the Sites or providing Personal Information to us, you agree that we can communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy and administrative issues relating to your use of the Sites.

Choices: Tracking and Communications Options

(a) Tracking Technologies Generally.

Regular cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Browsers offer different functionalities and options, so you may need to set them separately.

Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many online services, CPC currently does not alter CPC’s practices when CPC receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” you can visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com, but CPC is not responsible for the completeness or accuracy of this third party information.

(b) Communications.

You can opt out of receiving certain promotional communications (emails or text messaging) from CPC at any time by (i) for promotional e-mails, following the instructions provided in emails to click on the unsubscribe link, or if available by changing your communication preferences by logging onto your account; and (ii) for text messages, following the instructions provided in text messages from CPC to text the words, “stop”, “quit,” “end,” “revoke,” “opt out,” “cancel,” “unsubscribe” or similar indications that you wish to stop receiving text messages. Please note that your opt-out is limited to the e-mail address or phone number used and will not affect subsequent subscriptions. If you opt-out of only certain communications, other subscription communications may continue. Even if you opt out of receiving promotional communications, CPC may, subject to applicable law, continue to send you non-promotional communications, such as those about your account, transactions, servicing, or CPC’s ongoing business relations.

International Transfer of Personal Information

CPC is based in the U.S. and the information that CPC and its service providers collect is governed by U.S. law. If you are located in the European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, please note that CPC does not intend to offer goods and services to EU, EEA, UK, or Swiss individuals. If you are accessing the Sites from outside of the U.S., please be aware that information collected through the Sites may be transferred to, processed, stored, and used in the U.S. Data protection laws in the U.S. may be different from those of your country of residence.

Changes or Updates to this Policy

We may update or change this Policy from time to time. We will post a notice on our Sites to notify you of any significant changes to our Policy, or contact you to inform you when required by applicable Data Protection Laws, and indicate at the top of the Policy when it was most recently updated. By continuing to interact with us after the modified version of the Policy has been posted, you are accepting the changes to the Policy, subject to any additional requirements that may apply. It is your responsibility to ensure that you read, understand and accept the latest version of the Policy. The “Last Updated” at the top of this Policy indicates when it was last updated.
