This Privacy Notice (the “Privacy Notice”) explains how Cardurion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Cardurion”, “we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses information that you (“you” or “users”) may provide to us through your use of our website located at www.Cardurion.com, our social media pages, and any of our other web pages that link to this Privacy Notice (collectively, our “Services”).

This Privacy Notice does not affect, and any of its conflicting terms are superseded by, any other privacy notices that we have provided to you in your individual capacity. This Privacy Notice does not cover information we receive from third parties.

By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Notice and the Cardurion Terms of Use (the “Terms of Use”). If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Notice, please do not access or use the Services.

Information We Collect

We collect two types of information from or about users of our Services: “Personal Information,” which is information that you provide that can be used to identify you directly or indirectly (such as your name, email address, etc.), and “Aggregate Information,” which is information that cannot be used to identify you (such as frequency of visits to the Site, browser type, etc.). When we collect or create Aggregate Information, it is not linked to your Personal Information.

PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO US

We collect Personal Information that you voluntarily provide to us when you use our Services. For example, you may provide us with your contact information such as your email address, name, phone number, the content of your message, or other Personal Information when you choose to submit such information to us through email, an online form, or other method (such as contacting us through our “Contact” page).

INFORMATION WE AUTOMATICALLY COLLECT 

When you use our Services, we automatically receive and collect information about you and your device. This information includes the following:

• Information about your device, such as the operating system, hardware, system version, Internet Protocol (IP) address, device ID, and device language.
• The specific actions that you take when you use our Services, including but not limited to the pages and screens that you view or visit, and how often you interact with our Services.
• The time, frequency, connection type, and duration of your use of our Services.
• Identifiers associated with cookies or other technologies that may uniquely identify your device or browser (as further described below).
• Pages you visited before or after navigating to our website.

Some of the information that we automatically receive or collect when you use our Services may be considered to be Personal Information under applicable laws.

EMPLOYMENT

If we have collected your Personal Information through our “Careers” page in response to a job opening, you are giving us permission to use and retain your Personal Information for the purpose of evaluating your application for employment consideration for the specific position that you applied to, as well as other roles at Cardurion. This Personal Information may be processed and stored by a third party talent tracking solution provider as well as with vendors, consultants, and other service providers who need access to such information to carry out work relating to the recruitment process on our behalf.

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION BY THIRD PARTIES

Some links on our Services may redirect you to third-party websites that we do not operate, such as LinkedIn or Twitter buttons or links. The privacy practices of those websites will be governed by their own policies. We make no representation or warranty as to the privacy practices or policies of any third parties, including the providers of third-party applications. Any information submitted by you directly to these third parties is subject to that third party’s privacy policy and terms of use.

AGGREGATE INFORMATION COLLECTED

Aggregate Information is information that does not identify you. Aggregate Information may be collected when you use our Services, independent of any information you voluntarily enter. We may collect, use, store, and transfer Aggregate Information without restriction.

USE OF “COOKIES”

Like most websites, our Services may use “cookies.” Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to help us identify you when you come to our Services. You have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject all cookies you may be unable to use those aspects of our Services that require registration in order to participate. You can learn more about cookies and how they work at www.allaboutcookies.org.. You can always disable cookies through your browser settings. Doing so, however, may disable certain features on our Services. Like most websites, our Services also use other tracking technologies, such as device fingerprinting and cross-device tracking, to provide users with a better, more streamlined experience by recognizing unique users regardless of which personal device they are using (so we “recognize” you whether you are using your phone, tablet, laptop and so on).

ANALYTICS

Our website uses Google Analytics to assist in providing the Services. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the Services. The information generated by a cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to, and stored by, Google Inc. (“Google”) on their servers. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the Services, compiling reports on website activity for us and providing other services relating to website activity and Internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. If you would like to opt out of Google Analytics, please visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of the Services.

DO NOT TRACK

Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference that users can set in some web browsers, allowing users to opt out of tracking by websites and online services. Although we do our best to honor the privacy preferences of our visitors, we are not able to respond to DNT signals from your browser.
