We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information with care and transparency.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit our website at www.ssibio.com (the "Site") or contact us through the Site's contact form. It also describes your rights under applicable law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
When you submit any contact form, we may collect:
When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect certain technical information, including:
We do not collect payment information, government ID numbers, health data, or sensitive personal information through this Site. The Site is a product catalog and inquiry tool only — no purchases are made through the Site.
We use the information we collect for the following business purposes:
We do not use your personal information for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or significant effects.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:
Authorized Distributors: If you request distributor information or are best served by a regional distributor, we may share your contact information with our authorized distribution partners to fulfill your inquiry.
Service Providers: We may share data with trusted vendors who help us operate the Site, including web hosting, analytics, and CRM providers. These vendors are contractually required to protect your data and use it only to provide services to us.
Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business Transfers: If SSIbio is acquired, merged, or undergoes a change in ownership, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change as required by law.
As a California-based company, SSIbio complies with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). California residents have the following rights:
Right to Know: You have the right to request that we disclose what personal information we have collected about you, the sources from which it was collected, the purposes for which it is used, and the categories of third parties with whom it is shared.
Right to Delete: You have the right to request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions permitted by law.
Right to Correct: You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we hold about you.
Right to Opt Out of Sale or Sharing: SSIbio does not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. However, if this practice changes, we will provide a "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" mechanism as required by law.
Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information: We do not collect sensitive personal information as defined by the CPRA.
Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA/CPRA rights.
To protect your personal information, we must verify your identity before processing requests to know, delete, or correct your information. The verification process depends on the type and sensitivity of the request.
For requests submitted by email or through our contact form, we will ask you to provide at least two of the following pieces of information that we can match against our records:
For requests to delete or correct personal information, we may require a higher degree of verification and ask you to confirm additional details from your prior interactions with us. We will not retain any information you provide solely for verification purposes beyond what is necessary to complete the verification.
If we cannot verify your identity with reasonable certainty, we may deny the request and will notify you of that decision and the reason for it.
You may designate an authorized agent to submit a privacy rights request on your behalf. To do so, the authorized agent must:
Provide written proof that you have granted them permission to act on your behalf (such as a signed authorization letter or a valid power of attorney); and be able to verify their own identity upon request.
Even where an authorized agent submits the request, SSIbio may contact you directly to confirm that the agent is authorized and to verify your identity, unless you have provided a valid power of attorney under California Probate Code sections 4000–4465.
To submit a request as an authorized agent, please contact us at marketing@ssibio.com and include the written authorization with your request.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information in Section 9. We will respond to verifiable requests within 45 days as required by law.
