In addition, environmental variables (such as Internet Protocol addresses) for system administration of our Site and aggregate visitor information are recorded. We use customer contact information to personalize the types of information you receive from OpGen, or to tell you about our company and opportunities we think may be of interest to you, to determine customer satisfaction with products and/or services we have provided, and to compile aggregate statistics of visitors to our Site.

Protecting Your Information

The personal information you provide online is retained for no longer than is necessary, depending on the purpose for which it is held. We protect the personal information you share with us. Access to your personal information is limited only to those OpGen employees, and/or authorized third parties who need it to fulfill your order, to communicate with you about your order, and to provide you with promotional materials of OpGen or third party contractors.

Except as specifically described in this Privacy Policy, we will not, without your specific prior consent, sell, trade or transfer your information to such third parties other than authorized third parties and others involved in the e-commerce distribution chain (e.g., vendors, suppliers), which may need access to some of your personal information.

For example, if we ship an order to you, we must share your name and address with a shipping company. We do not give access to data on individual transactions to third parties, other than as described in this Privacy Policy. If you have any questions relating to the transfer of your personal data to the third parties described in this Privacy Policy, please contact us.

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure proper use of your information, we and our Web server hosts have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Occasionally, we may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide personally identifiable information to the appropriate governmental or regulatory authorities under applicable law. We will disclose personally identifiable information upon receipt of a court order, subpoena, or if required to co-operate with law enforcement investigations. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of Wisconsin.

Linked Websites

We provide links to third party Websites. Such links are provided for your convenience only and will be easily identifiable because they will not have the OpGen logo on them. Since we do not control these Websites, we assume no responsibility for the practices of sites to which we provide links, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies posted on those, and all, third party Websites.

Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18. If we learn that we have personal information on a child under the age of 18 we will delete that information ourselves.

Accessing and Updating Information

We need your help to ensure sure that your personally identifiable information is correct in our systems. Please notify us of any changes in your name, address, title, telephone number or e-mail address. You can access and correct your personally identifiable information by contacting us with a request for your change. You may ask to have the information on your account deleted or removed. We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.

If you have any questions relating to the transfer of your personal data, please contact us.

Policy Updates

We will not change the way in which we use your personal information without your consent.

Severability
