Introduction
We at Isis, Inc. are committed to respecting your online privacy and
recognize your need for appropriate protection and management of any
personally identifiable information ("Personal Information") you share
with us. Isis, Inc. has established this Online Privacy Policy so that
you can understand the care with which we intend to treat your Personal
Information. Personal Information means any information that may be used
to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and
last name, a home or other physical address and an email address or
other contact information, whether at work or at home. In general, you
can visit Isis's Web pages without telling us who you are or revealing
any Personal Information about yourself. If you choose to provide us
with your Personal Information on the Web, we may transfer that
Information within Isis, Inc. or to Isis's third-party service
providers, across borders, and from your country or jurisdiction to
other countries or jurisdictions around the world. Isis, Inc. strives to
comply with all applicable laws around the globe that are designed to
protect your privacy. Although legal requirements may vary from country
to country, Isis, Inc. intends to adhere to the principles set forth in
this Online Privacy Policy even if, in connection with the above, we
transfer your Personal Information from your country to countries that
may not require an "adequate" level of protection for your Personal
Information. In other words, our goal is to provide protection for your
Personal Information no matter where that Personal Information is
collected, transferred, or retained.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
Some of our Web pages utilize "cookies" and other tracking technologies.
A "cookie" is a small text file that may be used, for example, to
collect information about Web site activity. Some cookies and other
technologies may serve to recall Personal Information previously
indicated by a Web user. Most browsers allow you to control cookies,
including whether or not to accept them and how to remove them.
You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you
may choose to block cookies with your browser, but please note that if
you choose to erase or block your cookies, you will need to re-enter
your original user ID and password to gain access to certain parts of
the Web site.
Tracking technologies may record information such as Internet domain and
host names; Internet protocol (IP) addresses; browser software and
operating system types; click stream patterns; and dates and times that
our site is accessed. Our use of cookies and other tracking technologies
allows us to improve our Web site and your Web experience. We may also
analyze information that does not contain Personal Information for
trends and statistics.
To protect your privacy, we have adopted the following principles:
-

Access/Accuracy
Notice
Where Isis, Inc. collects Personal Information on the web, we intend to
post a purpose statement that explains why Personal Information will be
collected and whether we plan to share such Personal Information outside
of Isis, Inc. or those working on Isis's behalf. Isis, Inc. does not
intend to transfer Personal Information without your consent to third
parties who are not bound to act on Isis's behalf unless such transfer
is legally required.
Choice
You may choose whether or not to provide Personal Information to
Isis, Inc.. The notice we intend to provide where Isis, Inc. collects
Personal Information on the Web should help you to make this choice. If
you choose not to provide the Personal Information we request, you can
still visit most of Isis's Web sites, but you may be unable to access
certain options, offers, and services that involve our interaction with
you.
If you chose to have a relationship with Isis, Inc., such as a
contractual or other business relationship or partnership, we will
naturally continue to contact you in connection with that business
relationship.
Security
Wherever your Personal Information may be held within Isis, Inc. or on
its behalf, we intend to take reasonable and appropriate steps to
protect the Personal Information that you share with us from
unauthorized access or disclosure.
Access/Accuracy
To the extent that you do provide us with Personal Information,
Isis, Inc. wishes to maintain accurate Personal Information. Where we
collect Personal Information from you on the Web, our goal is to provide
a means of contacting Isis, Inc. should you need to update or correct
that Information.
Third Party Services
Third parties provide certain services available on Isis, Inc. on Isis's
behalf. Isis, Inc. may provide information, including Personal
Information, that Isis, Inc. collects on the Web to third-party service
providers to help us deliver programs, products, information, and
services. Service providers are also an important means by which Isis,
Inc. maintains its Web site and mailing lists. Isis, Inc. will take
reasonable steps to ensure that these third-party service providers are
obligated to protect Personal Information on Isis's behalf.
Isis, Inc. does not intend to transfer Personal Information without your
consent to third parties who are not bound to act on Isis's behalf
unless such transfer is legally required. Similarly, it is against
Isis's policy to sell Personal Information collected online without
consent.
Children's Privacy
Isis, Inc. is not structured to attract children. Accordingly, we do not
intend to collect Personal Information from anyone we know to be under
18 years of age.
Commitment
We are committed to privacy and, through our membership in the Online
Privacy Alliance, are actively involved in and support current industry
initiatives to preserve individual privacy rights on the Internet.
Protecting your privacy online is an evolving area, and Isis's Web sites
are constantly evolving to meet these demands.
If you have any comments or questions regarding our Online Privacy
Policy, please call us at 804-762-4200. While we cannot guarantee
privacy perfection, we will address any issue to the best of our
abilities as soon as possible.
Your Consent
By using this Web site, you consent to the terms of our Online Privacy
Policy and to Isis's processing of Personal Information for the purposes
given above as well as those explained where Isis, Inc. collects
Personal Information on the Web. Should the Online Privacy Policy
change, we intend to take every reasonable step to ensure that these
changes are brought to your attention by posting all changes prominently
on our web site for a reasonable period of time.
