Privacy Policy

eScience Labs, Inc. (eScience Labs) is committed to respecting the privacy rights of all visitors to our website. This Privacy Policy describes how eScience Labs, collects, protects and uses information we receive from visitors to our website.  By using our website, you consent to the collection and use of your information by eScience Labs as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

What information does eScience Labs collect and how does eScience Labs use it?

When you register or make a purchase on our website, we need you to provide your name, e-mail address, mailing address, day phone number and credit card information (when ordering products only), as well as create a username and password. This allows us to keep a user profile so that we may customize preferences for each specific user, as well as provide a faster method for users to submit information to eScience Labs, and receive back either the information or products desired.

When you enter a contest or other promotional feature, eScience Labs may again ask for your name, address, e-mail address, username and password so that we are able to better administer the contest and notify winners.

We may also use the information we collect during the registration process to occasionally notify you about important functionality changes to the website, new eScience Labs products and services, and special offers we think you'll find valuable. If you would rather not receive this information, or would like to opt-out of any other information request or distribution, simply reply to any eScience Labs e-mail sent to you and type UNSUBSCRIBE as the subject of your reply.

How does eScience Labs protect visitor information?

eScience Labs implements a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. User personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of employees who have special access rights to such systems. When you place orders or access your personal information, we offer the use of a secure server. All sensitive/credit information supplied by users is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and encrypted, and only may be accessed as stated above.

Does eScience Labs use "cookies"?

Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help eScience Labs conduct and improve its business.

Does eScience Labs disclose the information we collect from our visitors to third parties?

eScience Labs does not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to third parties your personally identifiable information unless we provide you with advance notice, except as described below.

eScience Labs shares your personally identifiable information with our third party service providers, such as our website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting eScience Labs’s business, or servicing you, provided that those parties agree to keep this information confidential and comply with this Privacy Policy. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect our rights or the rights and/or safety of others. This information is also used to better understand visitors' use of eScience Labs’s website and to support related transactions made on the website.

eScience Labs may provide non-personally identifiable information in aggregate form to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses. eScience Labs may also use e-mail addresses and other personally identifiable information to contact visitors who communicate with us. For example, we directly e-mail visitors who provide us with their e-mail addresses for specific purposes such as receiving our e-mail newsletters or being notified if they have won one of our contests. Each e-mail newsletter contains instructions on how to discontinue receipt of the newsletter. However, if a visitor at anytime chooses to no longer receive such communications and opt-out from any future mailings, they should simply reply to any eScience Labs e-mail sent to them and type UNSUBSCRIBE as the subject of their reply.

How does a visitor remove, or modify information they have provided to eScience Labs?

eScience Labs provides users the opportunity to update and modify any information they have previously provided by e-mailing us at info@esciencelabs.com and asking to update and/or modify the information previously provided.

Why does eScience Labs provide links to other websites?

In an attempt to provide increased value to our visitors, eScience Labs may choose various third party websites to link to from our own website. However, even if the third party is affiliated with eScience Labs, eScience Labs has no control over these linked websites which each have separate privacy and data collection practices, independent of eScience Labs. eScience Labs has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions and is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. These linked websites are only for your convenience and you therefore access them at your own risk. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our website and the links placed upon it and therefore we request feedback on not only our own website, but for websites we link to as well (including if a specific link does not work).

What if eScience Labs changes this Privacy Policy?

By using our website, you consent to the collection and use of your information by eScience Labs. If we decide to change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.  We will notify you by email of any material changes to this Privacy Policy and your continued use of this Site will confirm your agreement to those changes.
