Privacy policy
WHO WE ARE
This privacy policy is issued on behalf of Clinigen, Inc, a subsidiary of Clinigen Group plc, (“Clinigen”). Clinigen is the controller and is responsible for this website (http://www.proleukin.com).

This privacy policy should be read in conjunction with the terms of use for this website and any other privacy notice/statement or fair processing notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data about you so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data. This privacy policy supplements the other notices/statements issued by Clinigen, including, but not limited to, those on other Clinigen websites, and is not intended to override them. By way of example, we have a separate Privacy Statement which addresses how we handle your data with respect to adverse events reporting—see our Pharmacovigilance Privacy Statement.

The remainder of this privacy policy will tell you about how we look after your personal information, in the event we receive it, and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.
Personal information means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It includes personal information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, to a particular consumer or household. It does not include data where the identifiers have been removed (deidentified or anonymized data).
We may collect, use, store, and transfer different kinds of personal information about you, which we have grouped together as follows:
- Identity information including first name, last name, maiden name, username or similar identifier, Social Security number, driver’s license number, passport number, marital status, title, date of birth, gender, and employment information; and
- Contact information including billing address, delivery address, email address, and telephone numbers
We do not collect any other information about you in connection with this website.

Please note that we may process your personal information without your knowledge or consent where this is required or permitted by law.

HOW SECURE IS MY INFORMATION?
In the preceding 12 months, we have disclosed for a business purpose to one or more third parties the following categories of personal information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, to a particular consumer or household:
- Identity data (as described above); and
- Contact data (as described above)
HOW SECURE IS MY INFORMATION?
We have put into place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those individuals within Clinigen who have a business need-to-know. They will only process your personal information upon our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put into place procedures to deal with any suspected personal information breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
HOW LONG WILL YOU USE MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information; the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information; the purposes for which we process your personal information 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.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
You have rights under certain privacy and data protection laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as applicable, in relation to your personal information:
- Request disclosure. You have the right to know the categories of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which the personal information is collected, our purpose for collecting personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you
Please note that we are not required to retain any personal information about you that was collected for a single, one-time transaction, or to reidentify information that is not maintained in a manner that would be considered personal information in the ordinary course of business.
- Request deletion. Subject to certain exceptions set out below, on receipt of a verifiable request from you, we will delete your personal information from our records
Please note that we may not delete your personal information in certain circumstances, including if it is necessary to complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected, or provide a service requested by you; comply with an existing legal obligation; or otherwise use your personal information internally, in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context in which you provided the information.
- Protection against discrimination. You have the right to not be discriminated against by us because you exercised any of your rights under the CCPA. This means we cannot, among other things, deny services to you if you request disclosure or deletion of your personal information
- Request correction. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us
