Processing and controlling your personal information

You can be assured that your personal data will be processed with care. Data provided will be stored in our database and appropriate steps are taken to ensure that it is secure. We will retain personal data information for a period of up to7 years after the last communication.

We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so.

We will only share your personal data with third parties to enable us to provide the best possible service, for example, providing your address details to the most suitable courier for deliveries, and companies that provide for payment transactions (such as banks). This is always carried out entirely within the limits stipulated by personal information protection laws.

There is no possibility whatsoever of such information being disclosed in any form to other persons.

You are not obliged to provide personal data and you have the right to request access, corrective action, erasure and restriction of processing of your personal data. You have also the right to data portability and the right to object against data processing.

How we use cookies

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual.

Cookies do not contain viruses

A server can only get data from the cookie it wrote to the cookie file - it can't go fishing for information on the hard drive.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about webpage traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

Oxford Biosystems websites only use cookies associated with Oxford Biosystems domains and we never use third party cookies from ad networks.

Our Cookies include:

.ASPXANONYMOUS

This cookie stores a session ID for users who have not registered and logged in to the website to view standard website content.

__utma

This cookie is what's called a "persistent" cookie, as in, it never expires (technically, it does expire…in the year 2038). This cookie keeps track of the number of times a visitor has been to the site according to the cookie, when their first visit was, and when their last visit occurred. Google Analytics uses the information from this cookie to calculate statistics such as visits per day.

__utmb and __utmc

The B and C cookies work together to calculate how long a visit takes. __utmb takes a timestamp of the exact moment in time when a visitor enters a site, while __utmc takes a timestamp of the exact moment in time when a visitor leaves a site. __utmb expires at the end of the session. __utmc waits 30 minutes, and then it expires.

__utmt

Used to throttle the speed of requests to the server.

__utmz

__utmz keeps track of where the visitor came from, what search engine they used, what link they clicked on, what keyword they used, and where they were in the world when they accessed a website. It expires in 15,768,000 seconds – or, in 6 months. This cookie is how Google Analytics knows to whom and to what source / medium / keyword to assign the credit for a Goal Conversion.
