Almaject (“Almaject” and/or “Company” and/or “we” and/or “us,” and/or “our”) views privacy as an important part of the way we do business, and we want you continue to trust us with your personal information.

If you have any questions regarding our Privacy Notice, need to access the policy in an alternative format due to a disability, or if you would like to access, update, or delete your personal information, please contact us at: 1-833-256-2532 (option 5), by email at USPrivacy@alvogen.com, or at https://alvogen.com/partnerships/contact-us. Almaject will verify your identity using two data points previously provided, or some other identifying information specific to you.

Obtaining your personal information directly from you
We generally obtain personal information directly from you. By personal information, we mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a natural person or household, such as a real name, postal address, e-mail address, and telephone number. When other information is directly associated with personal information, we also may consider that information to be personal information. Information that is aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized will not be considered personal information. Publicly available information that is made available from federal, state, or local government records, also is not personal information.
We obtain personal information from you in the following circumstances:
- We will obtain your personal information (such as first name, last name, e-mail address, CV or resume, and other materials) if you wish to be an Almaject employee and, thus, fill out the “Contact Us” form on our website or otherwise submit your personal information to us directly or via a third-party (such as Indeed or LinkedIn).
- If you want to report a side effect or adverse event, we will obtain personal information (including medical information) that you submit. Since, at Almaject, we take the safety of our patients and consumers very seriously, it is vital for us to continuously monitor the safety of our products or of the products distributed by us. By hearing about your experiences and others like you, we are able to offer the best possible advice to those using Almaject products or those products that are distributed by Almaject.
We may obtain the following information about you: - Your name, contact information (postal address, email, telephone number), organization, occupation;

- A description of the possible side effect itself, such as the signs and symptoms experienced, date the possible side effect started and the result of the possible side effect;
- The name and details of the Almaject product involved (including, for example, the dosage, details of the therapy, and the indication).
- We will obtain personal information you provide to us when you contact us, including for customer service, a medical inquiry, or otherwise (for example, the contents of your contact, including telephone call, your name and contact information, and the nature of your inquiry, and potentially other information relating to your telephone call, request form, or email to us).
- We may obtain personal information from you if you interact with our social media pages (including for example, your username, posts on our pages, likes, or interactions).

There may be cases where we obtain your personal information from other sources:
