5. HEALTH INFORMATION
When we process Health Information, we do so in connection with our services for business customers and pursuant to separate privacy notices provided to you by our customer or otherwise provided at the time of data collection. This Notice does not apply to such Health Information, which is governed by the relevant notices provided to you and by our customer agreements. For example, if you are a patient based in the United States of America, this Notice is distinct from your healthcare provider’s HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, which describes how your healthcare provider uses and discloses the protected health information that it collects, as well as any other privacy practices it applies to that information.
6. AGGREGATED, ANONYMIZED AND DE-IDENTIFIED DATA
Molecular Devices, LLC may process anonymized/de-identified data. This is data for which the characteristics that can identify you, directly or indirectly, have been removed such that you are no longer identifiable. This information is no longer considered Personal Data under data protection laws. This includes, in the United States, the removal of identifiers from protected health information required under HIPAA (45 CFR § 164.514(b)(2)) or another permissible method for such data to be considered de-identified. We rely on our legitimate business interests, scientific or historical research and/or statistical purposes, consent or other purposes that may be required or allowed by law as the legal basis to anonymize Personal Data.
We may also obtain and use certain types of combined datasets (such as demographic data) for any purpose (“Aggregated Data”). Aggregated Data may be derived from your Personal Data but does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate certain information technology-related data of yours with others’ data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific feature on our website. We may use Aggregated Data for any purpose without restriction. However, if we re-combine or re-connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we then treat the combined data as Personal Data (which will be used in accordance with this Notice).
7. COMBINING INFORMATION
We combine information we collect on the website with information we receive from you in person, by email, or by other forms of communication. We also combine information you provide with information we obtain from third parties, service providers, publicly available sources and Danaher Entities.

When we transfer your Personal Data in such a manner, we take steps to ensure your Personal Data is protected in a way that is consistent with the laws and requirements in your country (including any requirements that apply to cross-border data transfers). Where Personal Data is transferred outside the EEA and/or UK, and where this is to a stakeholder or vendor in a country that is not subject to an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, does not fall under the UK government adequacy regulations, or is not considered adequate under applicable data protection laws, we take steps to require that your Personal Data is adequately protected. This includes using the EU Commission approved standard contractual clauses, the UK Information Commissioner approved standard contractual clauses, or a vendor's Processor Binding Corporate Rules. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of protecting your Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access.

This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") explains how we handle the Personal Data provided to us as described in this Privacy Policy, including through websites, mobile sites, mobile applications, and other digital services and products controlled by Molecular Devices, LLC, 3860 N. First St., San Jose, CA 95134, USA, that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, "Molecular Devices Sites"). Molecular Devices is the data controller for the processing of Personal Data under applicable law.
This Privacy Notice does not apply to Molecular Devices Sites that do not link to this Privacy Policy or to third-party Web sites to which Molecular Devices Sites may link.
TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT ONLINE
The types of Personal Data that we may collect while you use the Molecular Devices Sites are described in this section and include both information that you provide to us and information that we collect automatically when you use the Molecular Devices Sites.
For purposes of this Privacy Notice, "Personal Data" means information that identifies you or that could reasonably be used to identify you. Examples of Personal Data include name, address, telephone number, and email address.
Information You Provide
You do not have to register for a service or program to receive much of the information available through Molecular Devices Sites. However, some of our content is available only to registered or identified users and will require you to set up a profile or provide specific information about yourself in order to provide you the service.
Personal Data You Provide When Visiting Molecular Devices Sites
Molecular Devices collects Personal Data that you provide on Molecular Devices Sites, for example, when purchasing a product, to receive marketing products and information, contact Molecular Devices customer service, or respond to Molecular Devices questionnaires or surveys. This could include:
- Contact Information such as your name, address, phone number, or email address.
- Registration Information such as your username and password.
- Employment, education and other background information when you inquire about employment with Molecular Devices.
- Payment information (such as banking information, payment card number, expiration date, delivery address, and billing address).

Personal Data You Share During Other Interactions with Molecular Devices
You may contact Molecular Devices to ask questions, discuss
your concerns, or report issues regarding our products. If
you communicate with or request information from Molecular
Devices, you may be prompted to provide your contact
information as well as any Personal Data that is relevant to
your request.
INFORMATION THAT MAY BE COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY
When you use the Molecular Devices Sites, we also may collect certain usage and device information automatically as described below.
IP Address
We may record the Internet Protocol ("IP") address of your computer or other electronic device when you visit the Molecular Devices Sites. An IP address identifies the electronic device you use to access the Sites, which allows us to maintain communication with your computer as you move about Molecular Devices Sites and to customize content.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
We also collect information about your use of Molecular Devices Sites through tracking technologies such as cookies and web beacons. A "cookie" is a unique numeric code that is transferred to your computer to track your interests and preferences and to recognize you as a return visitor. A "Web beacon" is a transparent graphic image placed on a Web site, e-mail or advertisement that enables the monitoring of things such as user activity and site traffic. These technologies help remember your preferences and allow us to bring you the content and features that are likely to be of greatest interest to you on the basis of "clickstream" data that shows your previous activities on Molecular Devices Sites.
We utilize Google Display Advertising (such as Retargeting with Google Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, DoubleClick Campaign Manager integration, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting) to (1) show you our ads on other websites based on your prior visits to Molecular Devices Sites, and (2) better understand our ad impressions and use of ad services. In connection with the Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting service, we may use data from Google's interest-based advertising or third-party audience data (such as age, gender and interests) with Google Analytics to understand and improve our marketing campaigns and Site content.
Some of our online advertising takes place through Google Display Advertising. As part of this program, we use Google Analytics features such as Retargeting. In connection with that feature and others offered by ad networks, we and the operators of ad networks, including Google, may use third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) - and in some cases first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) - to inform, optimize and serve ads across the Internet, based on a user's past visits to Molecular Devices Sites. We also may show you ads from some of our affiliated companies when you visit Molecular Devices Sites.
You can opt out of Google Ads by visiting https://www.google.com/ads/preferences . If you do not want your data used by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at the Google Analytics opt-out page .
This Molecular Devices Site is not designed to respond to "do not track" signals received from browsers.
To learn more about cookies and other tracking technologies, including how to disable them, please visit https://www.allaboutcookies.org/ . Please note that some cookies are essential to the functioning of our Sites and deleting or disabling them will reduce the site's functionality.

Providing Product and Services You Request
If you choose to purchase a product or receive our services, we use the Personal Data that you provide through Molecular Devices Sites to manage your orders and invoices, to process payments, to respond to your questions, provide you the services you request and offer an optimal customer experience.

We may use the information that you provide and the information we collect automatically about your use of the Molecular Devices Sites to monitor user traffic patterns and preferences for site improvement, analytics and optimization.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under data protection laws, Molecular Devices must have a legal basis to process your Personal Data. The legal basis that applies in an instance will depend on for which of the specific purposes described above Molecular Devices is processing your Personal Data:
- In certain cases, Molecular Devices may ask for your consent to collect and process your Personal Data. Should you choose to provide your consent, you may later withdraw your consent by contacting us as described in the "Your Privacy Choices" section. Please note that the withdrawal of consent will not affect processing which has already occurred.
- In other instances, the processing of your Personal Data may be necessary in order to comply with an applicable law or regulation or for the performance of a contract to which you are subject. You may not be able to opt-out of this processing, or your choice to opt-out may impact our ability to perform a contractual obligation otherwise owed to you.
- In still other instances, Molecular Devices may process your Personal Data based on Molecular Devices' legitimate interests in communicating with you about our products and services, and about scientific research and educational opportunities. You have the right to opt-out of all such processing of your Personal Data. You may do so by contacting us as described in the "Your Privacy Choices" section.
INFORMATION WE SHARE
We only share your Personal Data with third parties as described below. We do not sell or rent Personal Data to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Third-Party Advertising and Online Behavioral Advertising
You may be provided with online advertisements of Molecular Devices products and services on third-party websites and mobile services that are tailored to you, for example, on the basis of information that you provide to Molecular Devices or a third-party website you are visiting, or of your browsing activity, purchases, or interests. These types of tailored online advertisements may come through several sources, such as the following:
- We may share with our advertising service providers your non-identifying information that we have obtained from cookies and other tracking technologies on our Molecular Devices Sites.
- Some Molecular Devices Sites participate in online behavioral advertising (this is also sometimes called re-target advertising or interest-based advertising). You can identify these sites by the "Advertising Choices" link in the footer. Our advertising network partners may place and use cookies on Molecular Devices Web sites and on other third-party Web sites to collect information about your activities in order to provide you with online advertisements that are based on your interests.
- Some Web browsers may transmit "do-not-track" signals to Web sites with which the browser communicates. As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Notice, an industry standard has not yet been established on how to respond to these signals. Therefore, Molecular Devices does not currently respond to these signals. As discussed above, you can opt-out from advertisers that use your browsing history to deliver online behavioral advertisements by clicking on the AdChoices icon.
Affiliates, Vendors and Suppliers
We have relationships with suppliers and affiliated companies who help us operate our business and for whom it may be necessary to have access to your Personal Data in the course of providing services to Molecular Devices. We will not authorize these parties to use your Personal Data for any purpose that is not related to Molecular Devices' and its related affiliates' business operation. We may also share your Personal Data with affiliates to offer and provide information about related products and services. We do not share Personal Data from countries that require consent, unless consent has been obtained in advance to sharing with related affiliates. We require these parties to handle Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Notice.
Co-branded Sites
We may partner with other companies to provide you with content or services on a joint or "co-branded" basis. At a co branded site, you will see both the Molecular Devices logo and the logo of the co-branding partner displayed on your screen. You should read the individual privacy policies of our co-branding partners, as they may differ in some respects from ours. Reading these policies will help you to make an informed decision about whether to provide your information to a given site.

Legal Rights and Obligations
In certain limited circumstances, Molecular Devices may need to disclose your Personal Data in order to comply with a legal obligation or demand, such as to comply with reporting obligations to our governing regulatory authorities regarding the safety of our products, or in connection with the sale or transfer of one of our product lines or divisions, which includes the services provided through one or more of the Molecular Devices Sites. In such instances, we will take measures to protect your Personal Data to the extent possible. We also reserve the right to use Personal Data to investigate and prosecute users who violate our rules or who engage in behavior that is illegal or harmful to others or to others' property.

DATA SECURITY
Molecular Devices maintains reasonable technical, administrative and physical controls to secure any Personal Data collected through the Molecular Devices Sites.

THIRD PARTY SITES AND SOCIAL MEDIA PLUG-INS
This Privacy Notice does not apply to Molecular Devices Sites that do not link to this Privacy Notice, or to third-party Web sites to which Molecular Devices Sites may link. Molecular Devices Sites may use social media plug-ins (e.g., the Facebook "Like" button, "Share to Twitter" button) to enable you to easily share information with others. When you visit Molecular Devices Sites, the operator of the social plug-in can place a cookie on your computer or other electronic device that enables that operator to recognize individuals who have previously visited our Site. If you are logged into the social media Web site (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) while browsing on our Molecular Devices Site, the social media plug-in allows that social media Web site to receive information that you have visited our Molecular Devices Site. The social media plug-in also allows the social media Web site to share information about your activities on our Molecular Devices Site with other users of their social media Web site. These sharing settings are managed by the social media Web site and governed by its privacy policy.
Accessing Our Sites Globally
This site is owned and operated by Molecular Devices in the United States, but the information you provide will be accessible to our affiliates, vendors, and suppliers in other countries in accordance with this policy. Furthermore, if you are visiting this site from a country other than the United States, your communication with us will necessarily result in the transfer of information across international borders. The level of legal protection for Personal Data is not the same in all countries; however, we will take the security measures described in this Privacy Notice in an effort to keep your information secure. By using this site, you consent to storage and processing of your Personal Data in the United States and in any country to which we may transfer your information in the course of our business operations.
