Non-Personal Information is collected directly from you in the same ways we collect Personally Identifiable Information as described above. Additionally, your electronic interactions with BASF and third parties acting on behalf of BASF provides Non-Personal Information through your browser (e.g., Internet Protocol ("IP") address, operating system version, computer type, etc.); through cookies as set forth below;and by BASF and third parties acting on behalf of BASF potential use of pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFS or other similar technologies in the Website, Platform, Product, or Service and email communications (these technologies are used in part to measure the success of marketing campaigns, compile response and website and/or webpage usage statistics, and track the actions of Website, Platform, Service, or Product users and email recipients).

Cookies

This section of our Privacy Policy contains information on what "cookies" are, the cookies used by the applicable Website, Platform, Product, or Service, how to switch cookies off in your browser, how to specifically disable third party advertising cookies, and some useful links for further reading. Please note that any applicable terms of use or agreement may have functionalities that require additional cookies specific to that Website, Platform, Product, or Service. By using the Website, Platform, Product, or Service or becoming a community user or subscriber related to any such Website, Platform, Service, or Product you understand and agree that we can place the types of cookies described in this section and as may be further defined in any applicable terms of use or agreement. If you do not see the information you were looking for, or you have any further questions about the use of cookies on the webpage, please contact BASF at Pharma-solutions@basf.com.

What Are Cookies? "Cookies" are small text files that are stored by your web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer or Safari) on your computer's hard drive or on your mobile phone. They allow websites to store such things as user preferences. You can think of cookies as providing a "memory" for a website or webpage, enabling it to recognize a user and respond appropriately. The specific cookies may change, but they will generally be found in the below description of cookie types.

Webpages use both session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary cookies that expire (and are automatically erased) when you close your browser or you are logged out of a site. Persistent cookies usually have an expiration date far into the future and thus stay in your browser until they expire, or until you manually delete them. We use persistent cookies for functionalities which make it possible for you to return to the site without having to log in. In addition to cookies set by the website you are visiting (first party cookies), both session and persistent cookies may be set by others (third party cookies). For example, analytics firms, social media sites and advertising networks may all set cookies when you visit other sites with which they have relationships.

Functionality cookies. These cookies allow our Website, Platform, Product, or Service to remember choices you make to improve your experience (such as your unit of measurement preferences) and to provide enhanced, more personal features (such as information about your browser and whether you have configured your Website, Platform, Product, or Service tools), and to improve response speed and efficiency by storing certain frequently-accessed information. By using the Website, Platform, Product, or Service you agree that we can place these types of cookies.

We also set anonymous cookies on certain other sites that we advertise on. If you receive one of those cookies, we may then use it to identify you as having visited that specific webpage if you later visit our webpage, and will serve targeted advertising based on this information.

How Do I Turn Cookies Off? You do not have to accept cookies to use our Website, Platform, Product, or Service. Although most browsers are initially set to accept cookies, you may reset your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie or to reject cookies generally. Most browsers offer instructions on how to do so in the "Help" section of the toolbar. While you are not required to accept our cookies to access our Website, Platform, Product, or Service, if you reject cookies, certain products, offerings, features, or resources of our Website, Platform, Product, or Service (including certain Internet Products) may not work properly and you may experience some loss of convenience.

All modern browsers allow you to change your cookie settings. These settings will typically be found in the "options" or "preferences" menu of your browser.

How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals

We have not implemented the necessary program changes to honor "Do Not Track" or "DNT" browser signals.
