Please read this Policy carefully before you use our Services, whether online or offline. When referenced in this Policy, the term “Personal Information” includes any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household, including any information that is subject to applicable data protection laws.

For the purposes of this Policy, SomaLogic is the controller (i.e., responsible party) for the Personal Information practices described in this Policy. In certain situations, we also administer the Services on behalf of customers and may act as a processor or service provider to such customers. In those instances, this Policy does not apply, and we recommend that you review the privacy policy of such third parties with whom you are dealing directly, as they will be responsible for the handling of your Personal Information.

Disclosures of Your Personal Information

Disclosure Of Your Personal Information
We respect the importance of privacy. Other than as provided in this Policy, we do not sell your Personal Information, nor do we share it with unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing use, unless we have your consent, or we are required by applicable law to do so. Generally, we may disclose the Personal Information we collect to facilitate our communications with customers, to operate our business, to advertise or promote our Services, or with your consent.
We may disclose your Personal Information to third parties in the following ways:

  • Service Providers. We may disclose Personal Information to authorized third parties who perform services for us (including cloud services, data storage, sales, human resources, and marketing). Our contracts with our service providers include commitments that they agree to limit their use of Personal Information and to comply with privacy and security standards at least as stringent as the terms of this Policy. Remember that if you provide Personal Information directly to a third party, such as through a link on the Site, that processing is typically based on their standards.
  • Affiliated Companies. We may disclose such Personal Information to subsidiaries, affiliates, or joint venture partners as needed to provide our products and services and generally as necessary in the administration of a global organization.
  • Corporate Transaction. We may disclose your Personal Information in connection with a proposed or actual corporate merger, acquisition, consolidation, sale of assets, bankruptcy, insolvency or other corporate change. Such recipient will be bound by terms and conditions reasonably similar to those set out in this Policy.
  • Other Parties. We may disclose your Personal Information to legal, governmental, or judicial authorities, as instructed or required by those authorities, applicable law or regulations, or in relation to a legal activity, such as in response to a subpoena or an investigation of suspected illicit activity. We may also disclose such Personal Information if we believe disclosure is necessary to prevent physical, financial, or other harm, injury, or loss.
  • Deidentified Personal Information. We may disclose or use aggregated or de-identified data for any lawful purpose. Deidentified information is generally not considered to be Personal Information under applicable law or regulations.
  • Other Disclosures With Your Consent. We may disclose your Personal Information with your consent to other unaffiliated third parties who are not described elsewhere in this Policy.

Security Measures

We use various reasonable safeguards (administrative, organizational, technical, and physical) to protect the Personal Information we collect and process. Our security controls are designed to maintain an appropriate level of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your Personal Information. Nonetheless, in the event of an incident that we are required by law to inform you of, we may notify you electronically, in writing, or by telephone, if permitted to do so by law. We encourage you to use caution when using the Internet. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us as specified in the “Contact Us” section below.

Data Retention

The time periods for which we retain your Personal Information depend on the purposes for which we use it and applicable law for the type of data and use. SomaLogic will keep your Personal Information for as long as you are a registered subscriber or user of our Services or for as long as we have a valid business purpose to do so and, thereafter, for no longer than is required or permitted by applicable law, as reflected in SomaLogic’s internal Records Retention Policy. The Personal Information we collect may be stored and processed in servers in the United States or other jurisdictions where SomaLogic, or our service providers, have facilities.

Children’s Privacy

SomaLogic does not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13 (or other relevant age of majority) without first obtaining parental consent in accordance with applicable law. Users under the age of 13 should not submit any Personal Information to us. If you believe we have collected Personal Information from your child in error or have questions or concerns about our practices relating to children, please notify us using the details in the “Contact Us” section below. We will take prompt steps to remove the Personal Information from our systems.

Data Transfers

SomaLogic is headquartered in the United States, and we have operations, entities, and service providers both in the United States and throughout the world. As such, we and our service providers may transfer your Personal Information to, or access it in, jurisdictions that may not provide equivalent levels of data protection as that of your home jurisdiction. We will take steps to ensure that your Personal Information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it. If you are located in the European Economic Area, Switzerland or the UK, we provide adequate protection for the transfer of Personal Information to countries outside of these areas, such as through the use of authorized EU Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK Standard Contractual Clauses, or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Depending on your location, you may have the right to request a copy of such appropriate safeguards by contacting us as set out at the end of this Policy.

Your Rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have additional rights, as detailed below.

  • The right to access: You may have the right to obtain from us confirmation as to whether or not Personal Information concerning you is being processed, and, where that is the case, to request access to the Personal Information. Information that you have a right to access includes the purposes of the processing, the categories of Personal Information concerned, and the recipients or categories of recipient to whom the Personal Information have been or will be disclosed, among other categories of information. However, this is not an absolute right, and the interests of other individuals may restrict your right of access. You may have the right to obtain a copy of the Personal Information free of charge. For further copies requested by you, we may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs.
  • The right to rectification (right to correct inaccurate information): You may have the right to request that we correct any Personal Information about you that is inaccurate. Depending on the purpose of the processing, you also have the right to request that we complete the Personal Information we hold about you where you believe it is incomplete, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.
  • The right to erasure (right to be forgotten): You may have the right to request that we erase your Personal Information, under certain conditions.
  • The right to restrict processing: You may have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your Personal Information, under certain conditions. In such case, the respective data will be marked and may only be processed by us for certain purposes.
  • The right to object to processing: You may have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Information, under certain conditions, and we can be required to no longer process your Personal Information. Such right to object may apply if we collect and process your Personal Information for profiling purposes in order to better understand your interests in our products and services or for direct marketing. If you have a right to object and you exercise this right, your Personal Information will no longer be processed by us for such purposes. Such a right to object may not exist if the processing of your Personal Information is necessary to enter into a contract with you or to perform a contract with you that has already been concluded.
  • The right to data portability: You may have the right to request that we transfer the Personal Information we have collected about you to another organization, or directly to you, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, under certain conditions.
  • The right to withdraw consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your Personal Information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time with future effect. Such a withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of the processing prior to the consent withdrawal.
  • Right to Know what Personal Information is Sold or Shared and to Whom: At the current time, SomaLogic does not sell your Personal Information to or share (as the term is defined by certain privacy laws) your Personal Information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
  • Right to Prohibit the Sale or Sharing of Personal Information: At the current time, SomaLogic does not sell your Personal Information to or share (as the term is defined by certain privacy laws) your Personal Information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
  • Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information: We will only use sensitive or special Personal Information as needed for the purposes for which it was collected. If this changes, we will notify you, and you may have the right to restrict such additional uses.

We do not discriminate against individuals who exercise any of their rights described in this Policy. However, SomaLogic may require the use of your Personal Information to provide access to the Services. Therefore, when you exercise, in particular, your deletion right, as well as other rights, you may lose access to certain aspects of the Services that require your Personal Information.

Note that certain information governed by either the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA) or HIPAA or subject to the Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects (also known as the Common Rule) pursuant to either good clinical practice guidelines issued by the International Counsel for Harmonisation or human subject protection requirements of the United States Food and Drug Administration, (2) is not in scope with respect to the application of and/or to the rights of residents of certain states within the United States. However, additional rights may be available under those laws and standards. Please contact us at [email protected] for more information.

You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority if we have not addressed your questions or concerns about Personal Information. Further, in relation to marketing communications from us, you may choose not to receive such messages by clicking on the unsubscribe link, or by contacting us as specified in the “Contact Us” section below. We may still send you some important emails, like responding to you by email if you send us a request or comment.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise your rights, or appeal a decision we have made regarding your rights, please contact us as stated in the “Contact Us” section of this Policy, or you may submit a request to us by either:

If you choose to assert any of these rights under applicable law, we will respond within the time period prescribed by applicable law. Please note that many of the rights listed in the “Your Rights” section are subject to exceptions and limitations. Further, we may request additional information to respond to or fulfill any requests regarding your rights under applicable law or regulations. Your rights and our responses will vary based on your country or territory of residency.

In certain jurisdictions, a person authorized to act on your behalf may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. If you designate an authorized person to submit requests to exercise certain privacy rights on your behalf, we will require verification that you provided the authorized agent with such permission. Specifically, you must provide us with a copy of the signed permission you have given to the authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf and verify your own identity directly with us.

Your verifiable request must: (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or that you are an authorized representative of that person; and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to the 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.

Changes To This Privacy Policy

As SomaLogic grows and our business changes, we reserve the right to modify, expand, or update this Policy at any time as we deem appropriate to reflect those changes. When we make changes to this Policy, we will post the updated Policy on the Site and update the Policy’s “last updated” date above. It is important that you check back from time to time and make sure that you have reviewed the most current version of this Policy. If you do not agree with the changes, then you should stop using our Site and Services and notify us that you do not want your Personal Information used in accordance with the changes.
