What "Cookies" Are - We Do Not Use Them
We do not use "cookies" in at BiotechWatch.com. We maintain all data for tracking a user's session on our server.
A cookie is a small data file that a web site transfers to a user's hard drive when the user visits the web site. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the web site uses to track the pages visited. The only personal information a cookie can contain is what the user supplies. A cookie cannot read data off of a hard drive or read cookie files created by other web sites.
Many Internet services deliver cookies to visitors to their web sites. We do not. Cookies store information about your use of their service on your computer where it can only be retrieved by the same service at a later time. Cookies are used by Internet services to make their services more convenient and personalized. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but by modifying your browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies. You can also delete cookies from your hard drive.
Security
We take every precaution to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the web site, your information is protected both online and offline. Our employees are briefed on our privacy policies when they are hired. We provide all employees with either a hard copy of the policy or send the policy to them by email when our Privacy Policy is updated.
All member data we collect is stored on secure servers and protected against unauthorized access. None of this information is stored on the web site. The data network is a secure network protected by industry standard firewall and encrypted password protection systems. Only a few employees have access to member personal information stored in our databases. We recommend that you do not divulge your user identification or password to anyone. This is to ensure that others cannot access your information or our database if you share a computer with someone else or you are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet café.
