PRIVACY POLICY

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for visiting the Taiho Oncology, Inc. website. Taiho Oncology, Inc. and its parent company, subsidiaries, and affiliates (collectively, “Taiho,” “we,” or “us”) operate a variety of websites designed to provide you with information and services, including but not limited to health resources, corporate news, patient assistance programs, and product information. Some of Taiho’s websites also enable healthcare professionals to receive product information and samples. Whether you are a patient, healthcare provider, investor, customer, or job applicant, respect for the privacy of your personal data is very important to us. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, protect, and disclose the personal data that you share with us. We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy in its entirety before submitting any information. By using this website, and submitting or requesting information, you acknowledge that you understand, and agree with, the provisions of this Privacy Policy.

If you are a California resident, the Supplemental Notice provided below applies to both your online and offline interactions with us.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE GATHER?

You can use many of our websites without telling us who you are or providing us with any personal data. Depending on which website you visit, you may not be able to receive certain information unless you agree to provide us with personal data. For example, we may collect information from physicians and other healthcare providers who register on our websites in order to verify their licensure status and identity. The type of information collected from you will be based on the specific program that you register for, as indicated at the time of your registration. The personal data that we may ask you to provide may include your first and last name, your mailing address, your age, birth date, email address, and information about your medical conditions. Taiho limits the collection and processing of personal data to what is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it is to be used. We will also offer you the option to opt out of further participation of a program or to unsubscribe from receiving further communications from Taiho if you later decide that you no longer want to participate in that program or receive additional information from us.

We may provide opportunities to contact us to ask questions or provide comments, ideas, and/or suggestions. When you communicate with us and request a response, we may ask you for additional information such as your name, email address, and contact information. If we collect this type of information, we will notify you as to why we are asking for it and how this information will be used. It is completely up to you whether or not you want to provide it.

USE OF COOKIES AND OTHER TAGS

Where permitted by law, we automatically collect certain data that may or may not be considered your personal data through the standard operation of Taiho’s Internet service or through the use of “cookies” or “Internet tags” and other similar techniques. This type of information allows Taiho to evaluate customer interest in its websites and perform other market research activities. Cookies are small text files a website can use to recognize repeated usage, facilitate the user's access to and use of the site, and allow a site to track usage behavior and compile aggregate data that will allow content improvement and targeted advertising. If you do not want information to be collected through the use of cookies, you may set such preference through user-enabled settings in most devices or browsers; however, some cookies may be necessary to provide you with certain features available on Taiho’s websites and although you may turn them off when you visit Taiho websites, you might find functionality of the website impaired. Taiho also may collect and store the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet, the Internet protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using, the browser software you use and your operating system, the date and time you access our website, and the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to our website.

DATA INTEGRITY AND SECURITY

Taiho takes reasonable steps to ensure that personal data collected are reliable for their intended use, accurate, complete, and current. We use appropriate technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to protect data that pertain to you from loss, unauthorized access and disclosure, misuse, or alteration. In addition, we take steps to ensure that our safeguards take into account new known threats. However, no organization can guarantee the absolute security of personal data. You should keep in mind that Internet transmissions, particularly email transmissions, are never 100% secure or error-free. Accordingly, we caution you to guard your own computer and password against unauthorized access by others.

SHARING YOUR INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES

Except in situations we have described in this Privacy Policy or after we have obtained your opt-in consent to do so, Taiho will not share your personal data with other entities for their own separate use. When you provide personal data to Taiho, it will be accessible to some of Taiho’s business partners, such as entities we retain to fulfill requests for information, answer telephone calls, or provide assistance to us on specific programs or projects. In addition, Taiho may enter into business relationships with other entities. In those cases, the other entities may also have access to your personal data. Taiho requires those entities to whom it discloses personal data to protect personal data using substantially similar standards that are used by Taiho. We also require that they do not use your personal data for any separate use that is not specifically authorized by Taiho. There may also be instances where Taiho may be required to share your information with other entities who have not been retained by Taiho, such as with health authorities to report possible adverse drug experiences, during inspections or audits, in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, or as ordered or directed by courts or other governmental agencies. Many entities receiving personal data under these conditions have privacy requirements that apply to their handling of your information.

SHARING YOUR INFORMATION WITHIN THE TAIHO GROUP OF COMPANIES

The information that you provide to Taiho may sometimes be shared with other departments within Taiho, as well as Taiho subsidiaries and affiliates within the Taiho global group. This may mean that your personal data may be transferred outside the U.S. to Taiho affiliates or companies in other countries. Other departments within the Taiho group, and other Taiho companies that may receive your information, will abide by substantially similar privacy requirements relating to your personal data.

CORRECTING, ACCESSING AND EXERCISING CHOICE REGARDING YOUR INFORMATION

We encourage you to update the information you provide to us, such as providing us with a new mailing or email address, a name change, or a change in the medical conditions that you have notified us about. This will help us continue to provide information to you that best meets your needs. Taiho complies with laws and regulations applicable to the right to amend your data in our files. These rights are limited in some ways.

We offer individuals to choose (opt-out) whether their personal data is (a) to be disclosed to another entity or (b) to be used for a purpose that is incompatible with the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual. Individuals are provided with clear and conspicuous, readily available, and affordable mechanisms to exercise choice. For sensitive information (i.e. personal data specifying medical or health conditions, racial or ethnic origin; etc.), individuals are given affirmative or explicit (opt in) choice if the information is to be disclosed to another entity or used for a purpose other than those for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual through the exercise of opt in choice. EU and UK individuals have rights to access, delete, correct, restrict processing of, and obtain in a portable format information we hold about you, as well as rights to be informed about the processing of their personal data, object to certain processing activities, to not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Swiss individuals have similar rights to those described above.

In addition, to protect your data from unauthorized access or alteration by other entities, all requests to update or access your information will be subject to verification of your identity. Please submit request to privacyofficer@taihooncology.com or by postal mail at the contact information listed below. We will respond to your request to access within 30 days.

CHILDREN'S ONLINE PRIVACY

Taiho’s websites are not directed at children. The services offered on our websites are designed for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. If your child has submitted personal data and you would like to request that such information be removed, please contact privacyofficer@taihooncology.com. For more information about protecting the privacy of children online in the United States under the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, please see http://www.ftc.gov/ogc/coppa1.htm(last accessed March 2020).

LINKS AND EXTERNAL WEBSITES

Many of Taiho’s websites contain links or references to external websites as a convenience to you. This Privacy Policy does not cover the practices of those websites. Accessing those sources requires that you leave Taiho’s websites. Taiho does not control the content of these external websites and is not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites. Please review the privacy policies on each website that you visit.
