It is our policy to comply with the privacy legislation within each jurisdiction in which we operate. Sometimes the privacy legislation and/or an individual's right to privacy are different from one jurisdiction to another. This is why this policy refers to legislation of different jurisdictions. In Canada, the relevant legislation may include the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), Canada's anti-spam legislation, and/or your local provincial private-sector privacy legislation, as applicable.

This privacy policy has a limited scope and application. Consequently, the rights and obligations contained in this privacy policy may not be available to all individuals or in all jurisdictions. If you are unsure if or how this privacy policy applies to you, please contact our privacy officer for more information using the contact information provided below. If you are in Canada, this privacy policy does not create or confer upon any individual any rights, or impose upon us any obligations outside of, or in addition to, any rights or obligations imposed by Canada's federal and provincial privacy laws, as applicable. Should there be, in a specific case, any inconsistency between this privacy policy and Canada's federal and provincial privacy laws, as applicable, this privacy policy shall be interpreted, in respect of that case, to give effect to, and comply with, such privacy laws.

As a globally active company with subsidiaries around the world, we or assigned service providers process your data outside of your jurisdiction (for example, outside of the EU/EEA if you are an EU resident, and/or outside Canada if you are a Canadian resident). We may provide certain information technology and data processing services to us from time to time so that we may operate our business, and as result, your personal information may be collected, used, processed, stored or disclosed in the United States of America. By doing so we ensure that a data protection level comparable with standards within the EU is achieved on the basis of EU standard contracts or an adequacy decision such as the EU Privacy Shield.

We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction.

Where we disclose Personal Data for a purpose set forth herein, we enter a contract with the third party that describes the purpose and requires the third-party recipient to both keep that Personal Data confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

We may share that information with our affiliates, suppliers, sales partners, or other providers as necessary to process, complete or deliver product to you. If we request details via our contact form that are not required for communication or to complete your order, these will be marked as optional. Such details serve to substantiate your enquiry and improve our response to your request. You provide these details on an expressly voluntary basis and with your consent (and, as applicable, pursuant to Art 6 (1) (a) GDPR). Insofar as such details relate to communication channels (for example, email address, phone number), you additionally consent to us contacting you via these channels as necessary to respond to your issues.

Use of Cookies

When you use our Sites, cookies are placed on your computer. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your hard drive by the browser you are using, and which provide certain information to the party placing the cookie. They are used to make Internet browsing more user-friendly and more efficient as a whole.

The Sites use the following types of cookies, the extent and functions of which are described in the Sections below. For more information about the cookies used on the Sites, see our Cookie Declaration at https://dymax.com/resources/resource-library/corporate-legal-hr/cookie-declaration.

Session Cookies

These cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. In particular, these include session cookies that store a so-called session ID, through which various requests by your browser are allocated to the joint session. This enables your computer to be recognized again when revisiting our Sites. The session cookies are deleted when you log off or close the browser.

Persistent Cookies

These cookies are automatically deleted after a predetermined period that may vary according to the individual cookie. You can delete cookies at any time using your browser security settings.

Prevention of Cookies

You can configure your browser settings according to preference and, for example, reject acceptance of third-party cookies or all cookies. Please note that this may mean you are unable to use all the functions of the Sites.

Legal Basis and Retention Period

The legal basis for possible processing of Personal Data and the retention periods for such vary and are described herein.

Website Analysis

We use a variety of services specified in the following text for the purpose of analyzing and optimizing our Sites. This allows us to analyse, for example, how many users visit our Sites, what information is most frequently retrieved and how users discovered our Sites. Amongst other things, we collect data on the last webpage that the data subject visited before landing on a specific webpage (the so-called referrer) as well as which sub-pages of the webpage were accessed and how often and the length of time a given sub-page was observed. This enables us to improve our Sites and make them more user-friendly. The data consequently collected is not used to identify individual users and is anonymously or, as a minimum, pseudonymously collected. As applicable, the legal basis for such is provided under Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Google Analytics

The Sites use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA). The use encompasses the operating mode Universal Analytics. This facilitates the assignment of data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and consequently analysis of a user's activities across devices.

Google Analytics uses 'cookies' to enable analysis of your website usage. The information generated by the cookie concerning your use of the Sites will generally be forwarded to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Within member states of the European Union or other states that are party to the European Economic Area Agreement, if IP anonymization is activated on the Sites, Google will first truncate your IP address. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be passed to and truncated by Google on a server in the USA. The IP address sent from your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be combined with other Google data. On behalf of the operator of these Sites, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the Sites, create reports on website activity and provide additional services associated with use of the Sites and the Internet to the website operator. As applicable, these purposes also define our legitimate interest in the data processing. Further, the commensurate legal basis for using Google Analytics is provided under S. 15 (3) German Telemedia Act (TMG) and Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Data sent by us and linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g. user IDs) or advertising identifiers are automatically deleted 50 months after the most recent visit. Data that has exceeded the retention period is automatically deleted once a month. Further information on terms of use and data privacy is available at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html and https://policies.google.com/?hl=en

You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, please be aware that this may mean you are unable to use the full functionality of the Sites. You can also prevent the collection and processing by Google of data generated by the cookie regarding your use of the Sites (including your IP address) by downloading and installing https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. Opt-out cookies prevent the future collection of your data when visiting these Sites. To prevent collection by Universal Analytics across multiple devices, you will need to disable the cookies in your browser.

Google reCAPTCHA

In certain cases we use the reCAPTCHA service from Google Inc. to process and transfer certain forms on our Sites. This is used primarily to distinguish whether the data is being entered by a human or through misuse by a bot or automated process. The service includes sending to Google the IP address and possibly other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service. Accordingly, the divergent data protection provisions of Google Inc. apply. For more information on the Google Inc. privacy policy go to: http://www.google.de/intl/en/privacy or https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
Your Rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. In addition to our Privacy Policy [https://oag.ca.gov/privacy/ccpa], this webpage further describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights below), we will disclose to you:

The categories of personal information we collected about you.
The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
If we sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:
- sales, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased; and,
- disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights below), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.

Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).
Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research's achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
Comply with a legal obligation.
Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either calling us at 1-877-396-2988 or 1-877-396-2963, emailing us at info@dymax.com.

Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. We will not require you to incur any costs or fees in order to process or provide a verifiable request.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

We will confirm receipt of a verifiable consumer request within ten (10) business days and provide information about how we will process the request.

We will provide a response to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) calendar days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 calendar days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

While California residents have the right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information under CCPA, we do not sell personal information to any third parties, and therefore, we have not included a “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link on our Site. If our practices change, we will update this Privacy Policy and take any other necessary action to comply with applicable law.

Additionally, we do not intend to market to any individual under the age of 18, and we expressly prohibit, anyone under the age of 18 from disclosing or submitting any personal information to us through our Site or other means. Therefore, we do not sell any information of any individual under the age of 18.

Deny you services.
Charge you different prices or rates for services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
