Privacy Statement
Bayer is aware that the security of your private information
from the use of our web-site is an important concern. We take the protection
of your personal data very seriously. Therefore we would like you to know
what data we maintain and what data we discard. With this privacy statement,
we would like to inform you about our security measures.
Collection of Data
You can use our web site without disclosing your personal data. You are
not required to provide personal information as a condition of using our
site, except as may be necessary to provide you a product or service at
your request. When you use our web site, we store data on our servers for
various security purposes. This data may include the name of your internet
service provider, the web site that you used to link to our site, the web
sites that you visit from our site and your IP-Address. This data could
possibly lead to your identification, but we do not use it to do so. We
do use the data from time to time for statistical purposes, but maintain
the anonymity of each individual user so that the person cannot be identified.
In cases when personal data is provided to others to provide you products
or services you have requested, or for other purposes you have authorized,
we rely on technical and organizational means to assure that applicable
data security regulations are followed.
Collection and processing of personal data
We collect personal data only when you provide it to us, through registration,
completion of forms or e-mails, as part of an order for products or services,
inquiries or requests about materials being ordered and similar situations
in which you have chosen to provide the information to us.
The database and its contents remain at our company and stay
with data processors or servers acting on our behalf and responsible to
us. Your personal data will not be passed on by us or by our agents for
use by third parties in any form whatsoever, unless we have obtained your
consent or are legally required to do so.
We will retain control of and responsibility for the use of
any personal data you disclose to us. Some of this data may be stored or
processed at computers located in other jurisdictions, such as the United
States, whose data protection laws may differ from the jurisdiction in which
you live. In such cases, we will ensure that appropriate protections are
in place to require the data processor in that country to maintain protections
on the data that are equivalent to those that apply in the country in which
you live.
Purposes of Use
The data we collect will only be used for the purpose of supplying you with
the requested products or services or for other purposes for which you have
given your consent, except where otherwise provided by law.
Right of Access and Correction
You have the right to review and amend any personal data stored in our system
if you believe it may be out of date or incorrect. Just send an e-mail to
the address given in the imprint or contact the Data Security Officer at
the address below.
Right of Cancellation
You have the right at any time to withdraw your consent to the use of your
personal data in the future. Again, just send an e-mail to the address given
in the imprint or contact the Data Security Officer at the address below.
Data Retention
We only retain personal data for as long as is necessary for us to render
a service you have requested or to which you have given your consent, except
where otherwise provided by law (e.g. in connection with pending litigation).
Security
Bayer uses technical and organizational security precautions to protect
your data from manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized
persons. Any personal data that is provided to Bayer by you will be encrypted
in transit to prevent its possible misuse by third parties. Our security
procedures are continuously revised based on new technological developments.
Children
In light of the importance of protecting children’s privacy, we do
not collect, process or use on our website any information relating to an
individual whom we know to be under 13 years old without the prior, verifiable
consent of his or her legal representative. Such legal representative has
the right, upon request, to view the information provided by the child and/or
to require that it be deleted.
Contacts
Please contact the Data Security Officer of Bayer Group in India with any
problems, questions or suggestions that you may have. The constant development
of the internet requires occasional adjustments to our privacy statement.
We retain the right to make changes when necessary.
