F.MARKETING

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. We have established the following personal data control mechanisms:

  • Promotional material from us. We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).

G.COOKIES AND WEB BEACONS

Cookies are small data files that are automatically stored on your computer when you visit our website. Cookies are used to track the pages of the websites you’ve visited and do not retain any information that will directly identify you such as your name, address or any financial information. We may use cookies to enable you to use certain website features, store your preferences, recognize you when you return to our website and monitor and maintain information about your use of our website.

Most internet browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you do not wish to have cookies on your system, you can set your browser preferences to refuse them or to alert you when cookies are being sent. In order to disable cookies, please consult your browser’s “help” section for instructions.

Web beacons are small strings of code that are placed in a web page or in an email message. They are sometimes called “clear GIFs” (Graphics Interchange Format) or “pixel tags”. Web beacons are most often used in conjunction with cookies to track activity on our website. When you visit a particular web page, web beacons notify us of your visit. Since web beacons are used in combination with cookies, if you disable cookies the web beacons will only detect an anonymous website visit. When used in an email, web beacons enable us to know whether you have received the email.

Please note that linked third-party websites may also use cookies. We cannot control the use of cookies by these third-party websites. For example, when you link from this site to a third-party website, that website may have the ability to recognize that you have come from our site by using cookies. If you have any questions about how third-party websites use cookies, you should contact such third parties directly.

H.HOW WE SECURE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach when we are legally required to do so.

I.HOW WE RESPOND TO DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to websites with which the browser communicates. Websites linked to this Privacy Notice do not currently respond to these “do-not-track” signals.

J.CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides consumers (i.e., California residents) with specific rights, subject to some limitations and verification, regarding their personal data:

  1. Consumers have the right to know about the personal data Amneal collected, disclosed, or sold about them in the 12 months preceding the date Amneal received the request.
  2. Consumers have the right to request deletion of their personal data collected or maintained by Amneal.
  3. Consumers have the right to opt-out of the sale of their personal data.
  4. Consumers have the right to non-discrimination for the exercise of their privacy rights.

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please email us at dpo@Amneal.com or fill the form out here. We will provide you with a form to complete that will ask you for your contact information, the right(s) you wish to exercise, and two pieces of identification that between them show your name, date of birth and address. The information collected will only be used to respond to your request and for record-keeping purposes to demonstrate compliance with the CCPA.

If the consumer prefers, he or she may designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA on the consumer’s behalf.

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits California residents who are individual customers of Amneal products to request certain information regarding its disclosure of personal data to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please contact us using our contact information listed in Section A (“How to Contact Us”).

K.CHILDREN

While in some instances we may collect personal data about children with the consent of a parent or guardian, such as clinical activities or for patient support programs, we do not otherwise knowingly solicit data from, or market to, children. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with personal data, he or she should contact us as described in Section A of this Notice (“How to Contact Us”). We will take reasonable steps to delete such data from our database within a reasonable time.

L.LINKS TO OTHER NON-AMNEAL SITES

As a convenience to our website visitors and users, Amneal may offer links to non-Amneal sites that we believe may offer useful information. The inclusion of a link on the Amneal website does not imply our endorsement of the linked site or service. When you click on one of these links, you will be transferred from the website and be connected to the site of the organization or company that you selected. This Notice is no longer applicable when you leave an Amneal site by way of link. Each of these linked sites maintains its own independent privacy policies and procedures, which you should consult before providing any of your personal information. After choosing to move to a third-party’s website, you will receive a notification that you are leaving our website.

M.PRIVACY NOTICE UPDATES

Amneal may update this Notice from time to time. Please check this Notice periodically for changes. If we make any changes, the updated Notice will be posted with a revised effective date. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.

N.SUPPLEMENTAL EUROPEAN PRIVACY NOTICE

European Union Regulation 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (the “General Data Protection Regulation” or “GDPR”) requires Amneal as the data controller to provide additional and different information about its data processing practices to data subjects in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). If you are a data subject within the EEA, this Supplemental European Privacy Notice applies to you in addition to the provisions above.

1.HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to so. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

  • Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.

  • Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

  • Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

  • Necessary for scientific research purposes.

We may also use your personal data in the following situations, which are likely to be rare:

  • Where we need to protect your interests (or someone else’s interests).

  • Where it is needed in the public interest or for official purposes.

Generally we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your personal data other than in relation to sending direct marketing communications to you via email or text message. You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time by contacting us using the contact information listed in Section A (“How to Contact Us”).

We have set out below, in a table format, a description of the ways we plan to use your personal data, and which of the legal bases we rely on to do so. We have also identified what our legitimate interests are where appropriate.

2.CHANGE OF PURPOSE

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose.

If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

3.INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA

Some of our organization is outside the European Economic Area, so the processing of your personal data may involve a transfer of data outside the EEA. We do, however, have a Data Protection Officer (“DPO”). Information on how to contact the DPO can be found in Section A of this Notice (“How to Contact Us”).

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.

  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.

  • Regarding transfers to the US, we may incorporate the model clauses in agreements for transfer provided by the European Commission in order to provide similar protection to personal data shared within Europe, or confirm that the data importer is certified pursuant to the EU-US Privacy Shield program. For information about Amneal’s participation in the Privacy Shield program, please click here.

4.HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

5.YOUR DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS

Under certain circumstances, visitors from within the EEA have the following data protection rights:

  • To access their personal data.

  • To correct their personal data.

  • To erase their personal data.

  • To object to the processing of their personal data.

  • To restrict the processing of their personal data.

  • To transfer their personal data.

  • To withdraw consent to any consent that they have previously given.

If you are visitor from within the EEA and you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact our DPO. You can also contact the Supervisory Authority in the country of your residence within the EU at this link(opens in a new tab) for advice or to make a complaint. Please be aware that your rights in relation to clinical research data may be limited.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
