We may disclose your personal information to our 3rd party suppliers, agents, contractors, or other service providers working on our behalf in connection with the services that they perform. Examples of companies that we treat as service providers include web hosting companies, fulfillment and customer service vendors, and data analysis firms.

Circumstances may arise where we decide to reorganize or divest part or all of our business or a line of our business (or any portion of our assets), including our information databases and Websites, through a sale, divestiture, merger, acquisition, in the event of a bankruptcy, or other means of transfer. In any such circumstance, personally identifiable information may be shared with, sold, transferred, rented, licensed, or otherwise provided or made available by us or on our behalf to actual or potential parties to, and in connection with, the contemplated transaction (without your consent or any further notice to you). In such circumstances, we will seek written assurances that personally identifiable information submitted through this Website will be protected appropriately.

In rare situations, we may be required by court order or other legal or regulatory process, or as otherwise required by law to divulge personal information to law enforcement authorities, the courts, or regulatory authorities. Melinta will cooperate in responding to such requests, in accordance with the regulatory or legal process, and will take appropriate measures to ensure that the requester understands the sensitive nature of any health-related personal information they receive.

We disclose personal information to 3rd parties for business purposes, including without limitation, for purposes of advertising, marketing, and other services performed on our behalf, to comply with legal requirements, to protect against fraud and malicious activity, and for other business purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Managing Your Preferences for Cookies and Other Electronic Tools

Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if your Web browser allows it) that enable our site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.

Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually set your browser to disable cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. You can find more information about cookies and how to disable them at www.allaboutcookies.org. However, note that portions of this website may not function properly if you disable cookies.

We also allow third-party behavioral tracking, such as Google Analytics, on the website. You can prevent this tracking of your activity by installing certain software, such as the browser add-on offered by Google: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Third-Party Websites

Our website may provide links to third-party sites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information you may provide while on such third-party sites or those third parties’ use of that information. We encourage you to read the privacy policies on those sites before providing any of your personally identifiable information to them.

Security

We have reasonable security measures in place, which include appropriate technical, administrative and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information in our possession from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into account the risks involved in processing and the nature of the information under our control.

However, we cannot guarantee that it is completely secure from people who might attempt to evade our security measures or intercept transmissions over the Internet.

Risk of Disclosure

No Internet transmission is ever 100% secure or error-free from people who might attempt to evade our security measures or intercept transmissions over the Internet. More specifically, information transmitted to or from the website may not be via a secure connection. As a result, you should take particular care in deciding what information you send via our website.

Notice to California Residents

The California Consumer Protection Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights. This notice applies solely to visitors, users, and others who reside in the State of California (“consumers” or “you”). We adopt this notice to describe our information collection and sharing practices pursuant to the CCPA. This disclosure does not apply to information that is not subject to the CCPA.

Melinta may collect personal information from you directly, such as when you submit information pursuant to a web form or register on one of our sites. Melinta may also indirectly collect personal information from publicly available sources, third party vendors, and other third parties. Melinta may combine personal information from multiple online and off-line sources. During the prior 12 months, Melinta may have collected, used, or shared personal information about you, including in the following categories:

  • Identifiers and contact information, including your name, address, phone number, mailing address, or email address;
  • Registration information, such as a username and password;
  • Data regarding your relationship with Melinta, including information about products, treatments and health conditions of interest to you;
  • Transaction data, including purchases and inquiries;
  • Financial account data, e.g., credit card numbers;
  • Income and demographic information, e.g., information obtained when you request financial assistance for one of our products;
  • Health-related information, such as information about a health condition, safety and health information in relation to any of our products, or insurance and demographic information; and
  • Payment-related information if you provide a service to Melinta.

We generally share personal information with third parties for the business and commercial purposes described above. We do not sell personal information to third parties.

California residents may have the right to request that a business that collects consumers’ personal information disclose the personal information collected and provide copies of the specific pieces of personal information that it has collected about them. California residents also have the right to submit a request that their information be deleted under certain circumstances. These rights are subject to certain exceptions – e.g., we may not be required to delete your personal information when we are required to retain information for regulatory reasons or where otherwise provided for by law. Please note that we will not respond to a request if we cannot verify you as the requestor.

You can make a request by contacting us through the toll-free telephone number 844‑633‑6568 or via email at dataprivacy@melinta.com. After we receive your request, we may require additional information to determine if your information is in our systems and to confirm your identity. If you are making a request as an authorized agent on behalf of a California resident, we may request that you provide us with proof that you have been authorized to make the request, which may include signed permission provided by the California resident.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not deny you goods or services; charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties; provide you a different level or quality of goods or services; or suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
