Privacy Policy
Welcome to PsoriaticDiseases.com. This site is owned by Centocor, Inc.
This Privacy Policy is designed to tell you about our practices regarding
collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide
via this site. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before
using or submitting information to this site. This site is intended
for use by residents of the United States.
Your Consent
By using this site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Whenever you submit information via this site, you consent to the collection,
use, and disclosure of that information in accordance with this Privacy
Policy.
About Children
This site is not intended for children under the age of 13. We will
not knowingly collect personally identifiable information via this site
from visitors in this age group. We encourage parents to talk to their
children about their use of the Internet and the information they disclose
to Websites.
Information You Provide
Some areas of this site may ask you to submit personally identifiable
information in order for you to benefit from the specified features
(such as newsletter subscriptions, tips/pointers, order processing,
or resume submission) or to participate in a particular activity (such
as sweepstakes or other promotions). You will be informed what information
is required and what information is optional.
Passive Information Collection
As you navigate through this site, certain anonymous information can
be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing
the information) using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet
tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files, server
logs, clickstream). Your Internet browser automatically transmits to
this site some of this anonymous information, such as the URL of the
Website you just came from and the Internet Protocol (IP) address and
the browser version your computer is currently using. This site may
also collect anonymous information from your computer through cookies
and Internet tags or web beacons. You may set your browser to notify
you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies altogether, but certain
features of this site might not work without cookies.
This site may use and combine such passively collected anonymous information
to provide better service to site visitors, customize the site based
on your preferences, compile and analyze statistics and trends, and
otherwise administer and improve the site for your use. Such information
is not combined with personally identifiable information collected elsewhere
on the site unless you have consented.
A "cookie" is a bit of information that a Website sends to your Web
browser that helps the site remember information about you and your
preferences.
“Session” cookies are temporary bits of information that
are used to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information
where inappropriate (the site “remembers” previous entries
of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters
and blocks subsequent changes), and collect aggregate statistical information
on the site. They are erased once you exit your Web browser or otherwise
turn off your computer.
"Persistent" cookies are more permanent bits of information that are
placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you
delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer
for a number of purposes, such as retrieving certain information you
have previously provided (such as passwords), helping to determine what
areas of the Website visitors find most valuable, and customizing the
Website based on your preferences on an ongoing basis. Persistent cookies
placed by this site on your computer may hold personally identifiable
information, but only if you have registered or have otherwise consented
to the retention of personally identifiable information you have provided
at the site. Otherwise, our site’s server only knows that an unidentified
visitor with your cookie has returned to the site.
You can set your browser to accept all cookies, to reject all cookies,
or to notify you whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide
each time whether to accept it. To learn more about cookies and how
to specify your preferences, please search for "cookie" in the “Help”
portion of your browser.
A site may use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a
number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so
you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally
identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic
(changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static
(unique to a particular user's computer). The IP address can be used
to diagnose problems with a server, report aggregate information, determine
the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to a site,
and administer and improve the site.
"Internet tags" (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible
GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the Website
server information such as the IP address and browser type related to
the visitor's computer. Tags may be placed both on online advertisements
that bring people to the site and on different pages of the site. Such
tags indicate how many times a page is opened and which information
is consulted.
"Navigational data" (log files, server logs, and clickstream data)
are used for system management, to improve the content of the site,
market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors.
Use and Disclosure of Information
Except as otherwise stated, we may use information collected via this
site to improve the content of our site, to customize the site to your
preferences, to communicate information to you (if you have requested
it), for our marketing and research purposes, and for any other purpose
specified. In addition, we may make full use of all information acquired
through this site that is not in personally identifiable form.
If you provide personally identifiable information to this site, we
may combine such information with other actively collected information
unless we specify otherwise at the point of collection. We may disclose
personally identifiable information you provide via this site to other
Johnson & Johnson affiliates worldwide that agree to treat it in
accordance with this Privacy Policy and use it for the same purposes.
We also may disclose personally identifiable information you provide
via this site to third parties that are not Johnson & Johnson affiliates,
but only:
- to contractors we use to support our business (such as fulfillment
services, technical support, delivery services, and financial institutions),
in which case we will require such third parties to agree to treat
it in accordance with this Privacy Policy and use it for the same
purposes;
- in connection with the sale, assignment, or other transfer of the
business of this site to which the information relates, in which case
we will require any such buyer to agree to treat it in accordance
with this Privacy Policy and use it for the same purposes; or
- to respond to law enforcement requests or where required by applicable
laws, court orders, or government regulations.
The collection, use, and disclosure of information contemplated in
this Privacy Policy may involve a transfer of the information to jurisdictions
located outside your country of residence that may not have equivalent
laws and rules regarding personally identifiable information. In these
cases, you will be asked to consent to such transfers and disclosures
in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Access, Correction, and Deletion
To keep personally identifiable information that you provide via this
site accurate, current, and complete, please contact us as specified
below and we will take appropriate steps to update or correct such information
in our possession, or to delete your information from our contact list.
Security
This site takes reasonable steps to protect personally identifiable
information as you transmit it to our site and to protect such information
from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration,
or destruction. You should keep in mind that no Internet transmission
is ever completely secure or error-free. In particular, e-mail sent
to or from this site may not be secure.
Links to Other Websites
This site may contain links or references to other Websites to which
this Privacy Policy does not apply. We encourage you to read the Privacy
Policy of every Website you visit.
