Information Collected by Cookies and Other Technologies

A cookie (“Cookie”) is a small piece of text sent to your browser by a website you visit. It helps the site remember information about your visit, which can make it easier to visit the site again and make the site more useful to you.

We may use Cookies and other technologies to collect information and support certain features of this Site. For example, We may use these technologies to:

• Collect information about the ways visitors use this Site—which pages they visit, which links they use, and how long they stay on each page
• Support the features and functionality of this Site—for example, to save you the trouble of reentering information already in Our database or to prompt the settings you established on previous visits
• Personalize your experience when you use this Site
• Improve Our marketing efforts, including through use of targeted advertising

The information We may collect using Cookies and similar technologies is not, in and of itself, personally identifiable, but We may link it to Personal Information that you provide. If you do not wish to receive Cookies, you may set your browser to reject Cookies or to alert you when a Cookie is placed on your computer. Although you are not required to accept Cookies when you visit this Site, you may be unable to use all of the functionality of this Site if your browser rejects Our Cookies. The information We receive may depend on your browser or device settings as well as your Cookie settings.

We may use both session Cookies and persistent Cookies for the purposes set out below:

Necessary / Essential Cookies

• Type: Session Cookies
• Administered by: Us
• Purpose: These Cookies are essential to provide you with services available through the Site and to enable you to use some of its features.

Without these Cookies, the services that you have asked for cannot be provided, and We only use these Cookies to provide you with those services.

Cookies Policy / Notice Acceptance Cookies

• Type: Persistent Cookies
• Administered by: Us
• Purpose: These Cookies register if users have accepted the use of Cookies on the Site.

Functionality Cookies

• Type: Persistent Cookies
• Administered by: Us
• Purpose: These Cookies allow Us to remember choices you make when you use the Site, such as remembering your login details or language preference. The purpose of these Cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience, and to avoid the need to reenter your preferences every time you use the Site.

Tracking and Performance Cookies

• Type: Persistent Cookies
• Administered by: Third Parties
• Purpose: These Cookies are used to track information about traffic to the Site and how users use the Site. The information gathered via these Cookies may directly or indirectly identify you as an individual visitor. This is because the information collected is typically linked to a pseudonymous identifier associated with the device you use to access the Site. We may also use these Cookies to test new advertisements, pages, features or new functionality of the Site to see how Our users react to them.

Information Collected by Third-Party Cookies

In addition to the Cookies QOL delivers to your computer or mobile device through this Site, certain third parties (Tracking and Performance Cookies) may deliver Cookies to you for a variety of reasons.

Other third parties may deliver Cookies to your computer or mobile device for the purpose of tracking your online behaviors over time and across nonaffiliated websites and/or delivering targeted advertisements either on this Site or on other websites.

Similarly, to opt-out of Cookies used for interest-based advertising, click here or here.

You will be directed to an industry-developed website that contains mechanisms for choosing whether each listed entity may collect and use data for online behavioral advertising purposes. It may be that some of the third parties that collect interest-based information on this Site do not participate in the industry-developed opt-out website, in which case the best way to avoid third-party tracking of your online behaviors may be through your browser settings and deletion of cookies. Please note that industry-developed opt-out mechanisms are device and browser specific. If you wish to opt-out from having interest-based information collected by participating entities across all devices and browsers, you need take the steps outlined above for each device and browser.

Our Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information

We may process the Personal Information We collect or receive under the following legal bases:

• Legitimate interest. We can process Personal Information about you if (i) We have a genuine and legitimate reason; and (ii) We are not harming any of your rights and interests. We will use Personal Information about you to help Us provide you with Our services and to give you the most appropriate information, products, and services, and to provide you with the best experience when dealing with Us. Whenever We process Personal Information about you for Our legitimate interests, We will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection law.
• Consent. In some cases, We will only process Personal Information about you when you have given your consent, such as when you sign up for email communications, provide your phone number for phone communication, or provide special categories of Personal Information (or “Sensitive Data”). Please note that We may have a different legal basis for processing (e.g., legitimate interest) such that your consent is not required. When Our use and sharing is not readily apparent when you provide your Personal Information, We will provide additional information at the time We collect your Personal Information regarding Our purposes and use of the Personal Information.
• To fulfill Our obligations to you under a contract. If you purchase a product from Us, We may process your Personal Information in order to fulfill Our contract with you.

How We Share Your Information

QOL will not share Personal Information about you except as provided in this Policy. We may share for the following purposes.

With Third-Party Vendors

In the ordinary course of business, We share some Personal Information with third-party vendors who provide services to Us. For example, We may use third-party vendors to design and operate this Site; to conduct surveys or clinical studies; to document and report product safety events or complaints; and to help Us with Our promotional efforts, including to evaluate the reach and effectiveness of Our marketing campaigns. These third-party vendors may need Personal Information about you to perform their services. In these cases, We will require Our third-party vendors to restrict their use of Personal Information to the intended purpose.

With Third-Party Social Media Platforms

We may also use third-party social media services to offer you interest-based ads. To offer such ads, We may convert your email address into a unique value that social media service vendors can match with a user on their platform. Although We do not provide any Personal Information to these social media service vendors, they may gain insights about individuals who respond to the ads We serve.

As Part of a Business Transfer

Your Personal Information may be transferred to a successor organization if, for example, We transfer the ownership or operation of this Site to another organization, or if We merge with another organization or liquidate Our assets. If such a transfer occurs, the successor organization’s use of your Personal Information will still be subject to this Policy and applicable privacy preferences you have expressed to Us.

For the Purpose of Determining your Eligibility for a Clinical Study

If you choose to provide Personal Information through Our Site to see if you qualify to participate in a clinical study, We may share your Personal Information with business partners or potential study center(s) so they may contact you to determine if you are a suitable candidate for one of Our clinical studies. We require such business partners or potential study centers to restrict their use of any Personal Information received through Our Site to the intended purposes.

In Aggregate or Deidentified Form

We use information collected through this Site to create a compiled, aggregate view of usage patterns. We may share aggregate information with third parties for various purposes including enabling better understanding of Our user base. We may also share with third parties information about how particular individuals use this Site, but only on a deidentified basis (“Individualized Data”). Individualized Data is not personally identifiable, but it does reflect the usage patterns of a particular Site user, as opposed to Site users collectively. For clarity, We may use and share aggregated or deidentified data without restriction.

Business Partners

In the ordinary course of business, We share some Personal Information with business partners such as clinical study sites or healthcare providers. For example, We may share Personal Information with a clinical study site if you provide Us with information indicating your interest in a clinical study. We may also share Personal Information with healthcare providers. Our business partners will generally be bound to confidentiality requirements applicable to their organizations.

To Comply with Laws or Protect Rights

We may disclose your Personal Information when We, in good faith, believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with applicable laws or regulations, a court order, or a subpoena. We may also disclose your Personal Information to prevent or investigate a possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft; to protect the security of this Site; to enforce this or other agreements; or to protect Our own rights or property or the rights, property or safety of Our users or others.

As Described in a Privacy Notice or Click-Through Agreement

We reserve the right to disclose your Personal Information as described in any Privacy Notice. If such a Privacy Notice is posted on a page of this Site where you provide that Personal Information, by providing your Personal Information on that page you will be consenting to the disclosure of your Personal Information as described in that Privacy Notice. We also reserve the right to disclose your Personal Information as described in any click-through agreement to which you have agreed.

Other Privacy Notice, Consent, or Agreement

This Policy may be supplemented or amended from time to time by additional Privacy Notices. For example, certain pages of this Site may contain Privacy Notices providing more details about the Personal Information We collect on those pages, why We need that Personal Information, and choices you may have about the ways We use that Personal Information. Similarly, if your Personal Information is provided by phone, in person, or as part of a clinical study, details about the collection, use, disclosure, and transfer of such Personal Information may be described in a separate Privacy Notice at the time of such collection. In other cases, specific Privacy Notices may be required to comply with the privacy laws of one of the countries, provinces, or states in which We do business. We reserve the right to collect, use, disclose, and transfer your Personal Information as described in this Policy, any Privacy Notice, or in accordance with any consent or authorization you otherwise provide.

How We Protect Your Information

QOL takes reasonable precautions to provide a level of security appropriate to the sensitivity of the information We collect. Although We use reasonable measures to help protect your Personal Information against unauthorized use or disclosure, We cannot guarantee the security of Personal Information provided over the internet or stored in Our databases, and We will not be responsible for breaches of security beyond Our reasonable control.

Transfer and Storage of Your Personal Information

QOL primarily processes Personal Information in the United States. Accordingly, We may store, collect, transfer and process your Personal Information in a country other than your country of residence. Thus, data protection requirements and other laws set by countries to which your Personal Information may be transferred may be different from your country of residence. By using this Site or otherwise providing your Personal Information, you agree to the collection, transfer, storage, or processing of your Personal Information as described in this Policy or applicable Privacy Notice.

Retention of Your Information

QOL retains the Personal Information collected on this Site to meet Our business purposes, legal and regulatory obligations, and as permitted or required by applicable laws and regulations.

Children’s Privacy

This Site is not targeted to children and We will not intentionally collect Personal Information about children in general, particularly under the age of 16 years. If you believe We have collected Personal Information from a child under the age of 16 years, please contact Us.

Marketing Email Opt-Out

We may contact you to provide information about products, services and content that may be of interest to you. You may revoke your consent for the receipt of communications that We send to you at any time by using the “Unsubscribe” functionality included in Our emails to you or by contacting Us directly.

You should note that this will not affect all communications from Us. For example, We are legally required to provide notices such as notification of a data breach, in which case you should expect to receive a notification via email. We may also respond to communications from you, such as if you submit an online form on Our Site.

Categories of Consumer Health Information We Collect and Share

If you are a Washington resident, this addendum applies to you and you have the rights set forth in this section. Please see the “Exercising Your Rights” section below for instructions regarding how to exercise these rights.

“Consumer Health Data” is used in this addendum as it is defined in the Washington My Health My Data Act (MHMDA). It generally includes any information that is linked or reasonably linkable to a Washington resident and that identifies that individual’s past, present, or future physical or mental health status. Excluded from Consumer Health Data are certain types of health information, such as when We must collect, use and disclose health information to meet Our regulatory obligations or as part of a clinical trial. We do not collect, share, or sell Consumer Health Data unless We have your consent. We also do not use “geofencing” technology where prohibited by the MHMDA.

See the chart below for categories of Consumer Health Data We may collect and process about you, if you give Us your consent.

Exercising Your Rights Under MHMDA

As a resident of Washington, you have the right to:

1. Confirm whether QOL is collecting, sharing, or selling Consumer Health Data concerning you and to access such data, including:
   • A list of all third parties and affiliates with whom QOL has shared or sold the Consumer Health Data
   • Access an active email address or other online mechanism that you may use to contact these third parties
2. Withdraw consent from QOL to collect and share your consumer health data
3. Request to have Consumer Health Data concerning you deleted and exercise that right by informing QOL of your request for deletion
4. Appeal if QOL does not address an attempt to exercise one or more of these rights to your satisfaction

You may request that QOL take the actions outlined above in paragraphs to exercise your rights under MHMDA by submitting a request, at any time, to QOL. QOL must respond within forty-five (45) days unless an extension is requested (for up to forty-five (45) additional days).
