The privacy of our customers/users is very important to us, and we are
committed to respecting your privacy. Our Internet privacy policy is:
You do not have to give us personal information to visit our site.
We've structured our site so that, in general, you can visit without
identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. Once you choose to
provide us personally identifiable information (any information by which you
can be identified), you can be assured that it will only be used to support
your relationship with us.
We will collect personally identifiable information only if specifically and
knowingly provided by you.
If we ask you to provide information that personally identifies you
(name, email address, or other personal information), our request to do so will
be specific. If you register to order materials, provide suggestions or
feedback, or request information, we will ask for personal information such as
your name, e-mail address, postal address, phone number or shipping account
information. If we want you to provide additional information, we will explain
why we need the additional information and how it will be used at the time of
the request. Personally identifying information you provide will be used only
in connection with our programs and services or for such other purposes as are
described at the point of collection.
Information may be shared with the NIH.
All information collected will be shared with NIH personnel responsible
for administration of the NIH Nonhuman Primate Reagent Resource. Investigators who obtain
reagents from this Resource may be identified as a user, together with the
specific reagent obtained, in reports submitted to the Resource's advisory
committees and in periodic progress reports to the NIH.
We do not give, sell or transfer any personal information to any other third
parties.
We do not give, sell or transfer any personal information about you to
any third party, except to the NIH as described above. We may disclose or use
your personal information when we, in good faith, believe that either the law
requires us to do so or such action is necessary to protect or defend our
rights or property.
Information is collected for statistical purposes and we sometimes perform
analyses of user behavior in order to measure customer interest in the various
areas of our site.
Our web server automatically collects and aggregates information about
your visit, including your IP address, browser type, domain names of referring
websites, operating system, pages accessed on our website, and the date and
time of your access. This information is not personally identifiable. We
analyze this aggregated information in an effort to optimize your experience
and enhance your time spent with us online.

prior to disclosing any personal information. We cannot ensure the protection
of any personal information that you provide to a third-party site that links

independently. These third-party sites may have their own privacy and data
collection practices that are beyond our control. Any personal information that

policy, if any. We can assume no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the
