OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("OSI") respects the privacy of visitors to its websites and, as a result, we have developed this website Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy outlines the information OSI (and its subsidiaries and affiliates) may collect and how we may use that information and applies only to the operation of websites that directly link to this policy when you click on "Privacy Statement" in the website footer. OSI takes no responsibility or liability for any information, services or participation by you in third party websites even if you have accessed the third party website from the OSI website or you linked to the OSI website from a third party website.

Personal Information

Through this website, we do not automatically capture and store personal information other than logging certain user and website usage information, deemed non-personal information (see below). However, OSI will collect personal information that can identify you, such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and other similar information ("Personal Information") when it is voluntarily submitted to us (however, see discussion below about "IP Addresses" if you have a broadband connection). We may use Personal Information for the following, unless stated otherwise:

we may store and process that information to better understand your needs and how we can improve our products and services;
we, or a third party on our behalf, may use that information to contact you;
we may provide third parties with summary, but not individual, information about visitors to or users of our website;
we may use the information to respond to queries and requests submitted by you;
we may provide the information to affiliate offices and companies to enable them to send you information which may be of interest to you or which may have been requested by you; and
we may use the information to contact you and/or provide you with general health information (like information on certain health conditions) as well as information about our products and services.

In relation to provision of Personal Information in connection with submission of a Resume/CV, please refer to our additional terms on Resume/CV Submission.

If you do not want your Personal Information to be collected, please do not submit it to us.

We do not now and do not intend to sell, rent or market Personal Information about you to third parties.

Non-Personal Information

Any other information transferred by you in connection with your visit to this site ("Non-Personal Information" - that is, information that cannot be used to identify you) may be included in databases owned and maintained by OSI or its agents and may be used for system administration and to provide statistics which OSI (and its affiliated companies) may use to evaluate use and efficiency of service of the website. OSI retains all rights to these databases and the information contained in them however we may from time to time supply third parties with Non-Personal Information or aggregated information for uses in connection with this website. Non-Personal Information we collect may include your IP Address and other information gathered through our web logs and cookies (see below).

This site may collect web log information. Web log information is gathered when you visit one of our websites by the computer that hosts our website (called a "webserver"). The webserver automatically recognizes some Non-Personal Information, such as the date and time you visited our site, the pages you visited, the website you came from, the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows 2000), and the domain name and address of your Internet service provider (e.g., AOL).

This website may use a technology called a "cookie". A cookie is a piece of information that our webserver sends to your computer (actually to your browser file) when you access a website. Then when you come back to our site, our site will detect whether you have one of our cookies on your computer. Our cookies help provide additional functionality to the site and help us analyze site usage more accurately. For instance, our site may set a cookie on your browser that keeps you from needing to remember and then enter a username and/or password more than once during a visit to the site. With most browsers, you can erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block all cookies or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.

This website uses Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet. Generally, an IP address changes each time you connect to the Internet (it is a "dynamic" address). Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection (e.g., DSL or cable), depending on your individual circumstance, it is possible that your IP Address that we collect, or even perhaps a cookie we use, may contain information that could be deemed identifiable. This is because with some broadband connections your IP Address doesn't change (it is "static") and could be associated with your personal computer. We use your IP Address to report aggregate information on use of and to help improve the website.
