Introduction

Some of Otsuka’s Websites (including applications or other online resources collectively referred to “Websites” throughout this document) may also enable healthcare professionals and patients to receive product information, samples and/or order products. Whether you are a patient, healthcare professional, or a customer, respect for the privacy of your personal information is very important to Otsuka.

In that respect, Otsuka is committed to complying with all requirements set forth in applicable laws and more particularly the ones governing the collection, use, storage, sharing and destruction of any information about an identifiable individual (“personal information”), and has put in place various measures, practices and guidelines to ensure that the privacy and the confidentiality of any personal information is preserved.

This policy describes how Otsuka collects, uses, handles, stores, shares, retains and destroys personal information obtained about users when they visit and use any of our Websites on which this Privacy Policy appears. Otsuka is committed to collecting, maintaining and securing personal information in accordance with the provisions set out herein and in compliance with applicable privacy laws.

What information do we collect?

When you interact with us through our Websites, Otsuka may collect personal information about you with your consent, which can be implied or express depending on the circumstances, for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise permitted or required by law.

Personal information

The types of personal information collected from you will be based on how you interact with us, in particular based on the specific program or services that you register for on our Websites or based on online materials that you choose to access. The information that we may ask you to provide could include your first and last name, your contact information, such as your mailing and email address, and information about your medical condition(s) (only when necessary to fulfil your request for information, support or documentation) and the province you reside in. If you are a healthcare professional, we may also ask you to provide your licence number or area of specialty, as further described below.

Depending on which Website you visit, you may not be able to receive certain materials, enroll in programs or request information unless you provide us with personal information necessary to provide the services requested. Otsuka limits the collection and processing of personal information to what is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it is to be used. As such, you will be able to register online, subscribe to a service or engage in other activities described below by providing us with such “necessary” information, while you will be entitled (but not required) to provide any additional “optional” information. We will also offer you the option to withdraw your consent at all times ("opting out" or "unsubscribing") if you later decide that you no longer wish to participate in a particular program or receive certain types of communications from us, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.

De-identified information and other data

De-identified or anonymized information, namely personal information from which a person’s name and other unique identifiers have been removed, so that the information can no longer be linked to an identifiable individual, as well as other non-identifying data may be used in accordance with applicable laws to improve and develop programs and services or for study, research or statistical purposes.

Cookies are small text files. Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique number to the user that has no meaning outside the assigning site. Tags (or GIFs or web beacons) are invisible tags placed on certain pages of a website and generating a notice of that visit. A Website can use the foregoing to recognize repeated usage, to facilitate the user's access to and use of a site as well as to allow a site to track usage behavior and compile aggregate data (such as the date and time of users’ visit) that will: allow content improvement, to remember your preferences, to maintain your session open and help the Websites work properly (e.g. when moving from a webpage to another), to prevent fraudulent use of your account, or to generate targeted messaging.

While persistent cookies – such as “preference cookies” collecting information (such as your preferred language and size of lettering), “statistical cookies” and “advertising cookies” – can be blocked, temporary cookies, such as “process cookies”, “sessions state cookies” and “security cookies” – making the Websites work properly when moving from a page to another, maintaining your session open and preventing fraudulent use of login credentials – are essential to ensure the integrity and security of your online session and as such, cannot be blocked. If a user does not want information to be collected through the use of persistent cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows the user to deny or accept the cookie feature. However, users should note that cookies may be necessary to provide the user with certain optional features (e.g. customized delivery of information) available on Otsuka’s Websites. Likewise, you can turn off pixel tags, which will thereafter simply detect anonymous Website visits.

Information shared by third parties

This collection of information is made through codes placed on the Websites, compiling information about the pages consulted and the type of browser and device that was used. The information collected will then be processed by Google or other business partners on their platform and subsequently transmitted to Otsuka, and updated from time to time. The information obtained from these tools is used on an aggregated de-identified basis to improve the Websites. You can manage your privacy preferences with respect to certain third parties, such as Google, by using the functionality within their platforms.

Storage of personal information

In that respect, Otsuka has put in place measures of control, timeframes and guidelines pertaining to the storage of personal information and to the destruction of files and other supports containing such personal information when deemed no longer required or relevant under the law or for the purposes listed in the previous section.

Where such disclosure of personal information to a third party occurs, Otsuka will ensure that the processing is performed in accordance with the purposes and within the limits under which the personal information was originally collected.

Information shared with other third-parties

Personal information may also be transferred to a potential purchaser or other third-party if such information is required in connection with a business transaction or corporate reorganization, such as if Otsuka is to be sold, merged or amalgamated or if substantially all of Otsuka’s assets are to be sold or disposed of.
