7. Cookie Policy and Similar Technologies

A cookie is a small data file or piece of information stored on or accessed from a visitor’s browser or device.
Similar technologies may include:
- Tracking pixels;
- Web beacons;
- Tags;
- Scripts;

- Referral sources;
- Device information;

- Prevent excessive repetition of advertisements;

8. Cookie Consent and Preference Management
Where applicable law requires consent, Medical Presswire will provide a mechanism for users to make choices before non-essential cookies or similar technologies requiring consent are activated.
Where required, users should be provided with the ability to:
- Accept non-essential cookies;
- Reject non-essential cookies; and
- Manage cookie preferences by category.
Continuing to browse Medical Presswire will not be treated as consent where applicable law requires affirmative consent.
Non-essential cookie categories should not be pre-selected where doing so would conflict with applicable law.
9. Changing or Withdrawing Cookie Consent
Where we rely upon consent, you may change or withdraw your cookie preferences through the Site’s cookie-preference or cookie-settings mechanism, where available.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that lawfully occurred before consent was withdrawn.
You may also configure your browser to:
- Block cookies;
- Delete cookies;
- Restrict certain cookies; or
- Notify you when cookies are being stored.
Browser controls supplement, but do not replace, any consent-management mechanisms required by applicable law.
Blocking certain cookies may affect Site functionality.

- Responses to your inquiries;

- Legal notices; or
- Other non-marketing communications where we have another lawful basis for sending them.
13. Canada’s Anti-Spam Requirements

When you contact Medical Presswire, we may collect the information you submit along with technical information reasonably necessary to:
- Receive the submission;
- Prevent spam;
- Investigate security issues;
- Respond to your inquiry; and
- Maintain appropriate records.
Information submitted through forms may be transmitted through or stored by third-party hosting, security, email, or form-processing providers used to operate the Site.
Please do not submit confidential information through ordinary Site forms unless specifically requested.

Depending on the feature, we may also collect:
- Display name;
- Email address;

16. Automated Aggregation and Content Systems
Medical Presswire may use automated systems to collect, classify, organize, summarize, index, or display publicly available medical news, press releases, and company information.
Those content-processing activities generally relate to published business or industry information rather than information collected from Site visitors.
However, technical logs or analytics information may be generated when users interact with aggregated content.
Any personal information processed through those interactions remains subject to this Privacy Policy.
17. Third-Party Services and Service Providers
We may use third-party providers to assist with services such as:
- Website hosting;

- Website security;
- Backups;
- Anti-spam protection;
- Analytics;
- Email delivery;
- Newsletter management;
- Advertising;
- Content distribution;
- Website forms;
- Performance monitoring;
- Financial or stock-market data;
- Embedded media; and
- Other Site functions.
Service providers may process information on our behalf.
In other circumstances, a provider may determine its own purposes and means of processing and operate as an independent controller or business.
We encourage users to review the privacy information provided by relevant third parties.
18. Third-Party Medical and Financial Services
Medical Presswire may link to or incorporate information from third-party services providing:

- Manufacturer information;

Interacting with these services may result in information being transmitted to the relevant provider.
Medical Presswire does not control the independent privacy practices of those third parties.
19. Sharing and Disclosure of Personal Information
We do not sell or rent personal information in the ordinary meaning of those terms.
We may disclose information:
- To service providers assisting us in operating the Site;
- To hosting or infrastructure providers;
- To security providers;
- To analytics providers where permitted;
- To email-service providers;
- To advertising partners where permitted;

- When reasonably necessary to investigate fraud, abuse, or security threats;
- To protect Medical Presswire, Triforce Media Inc., our users, or others;
- To establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; or
- In connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, restructuring, sale of assets, or similar corporate transaction.
Any such disclosure remains subject to applicable privacy requirements.
20. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising
Some privacy laws use specialized definitions for terms such as “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising.”
Certain advertising or analytics activities involving third-party identifiers may fall within these definitions even where money is not exchanged for a user’s personal information.
Where an applicable law grants users the right to opt out of such processing, Medical Presswire will provide or honour legally required mechanisms for exercising that right.
Nothing in this section is intended to state that Medical Presswire currently engages in a legally defined sale or sharing activity where it does not do so.
21. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers provide “Do Not Track” or other privacy signals.
Because there is not a single universally applicable technical standard governing all such signals, our response may depend on applicable law and available technical mechanisms.
Where applicable privacy law requires recognition of an approved browser-based opt-out preference signal, we will endeavour to process that signal as legally required.
22. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or as otherwise permitted or required by law.
Retention periods may depend on:
- The type of information;
- The purpose for which it was collected;

- User subscription status;
- Security requirements;
- Fraud-prevention needs;
- Backup practices;
- Contractual requirements;
- Legal requirements;
- Regulatory requirements;
- Applicable limitation periods; and
- The need to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
When personal information is no longer reasonably required, it may be:
- Deleted;
- Destroyed;
- Anonymized;
- De-identified; or
- Otherwise handled in accordance with applicable law and operational requirements.
23. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards designed to protect personal information against:
- Unauthorized access;
- Unauthorized disclosure;
- Loss;
- Theft;
- Misuse;

Safeguards may include appropriate measures involving:
- Website security;
- Access controls;
- Hosting security;
- Network protections;
- Software updates;

- Service-provider controls.
Access to personal information should be limited to persons and service providers who reasonably require access for legitimate business purposes.
No website, internet transmission, electronic storage system, or security system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Accordingly, Medical Presswire cannot guarantee absolute security.
24. Data Breaches
If a security incident involving personal information occurs, we will assess the incident and take steps required by applicable law.
Depending upon the circumstances and applicable legal requirements, this may include:
- Investigating the incident;
- Taking steps to contain or remediate it;
- Maintaining required records;
- Notifying affected individuals; and
- Notifying applicable regulators or authorities.
25. Children’s Privacy
Medical Presswire is a general medical news and industry-information service and is not directed primarily toward children.

A parent or guardian who believes a child has submitted personal information to Medical Presswire may contact us through our Contact page.

This does not prohibit differences reasonably related to the value or functionality of a particular service where permitted by law.
30. Authorized Agents
Where applicable law permits a privacy request to be submitted through an authorized agent, we may require reasonable evidence that:
- The agent is authorized to act for the individual; and
- The identity of the person making the request can be verified.
Additional verification may be requested where permitted by applicable law.
31. International Processing and Transfers
