This Privacy Policy and Notice of Information Practices sets forth Retrophin’s practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information that you may provide through this site. Please read this entire Privacy Policy before using this site or submitting information to Retrophin through this site.

Privacy Policy and Notice of Information Practices:
Information Retrophin Collects
Personally Identifiable Information — Retrophin only collects personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, telephone number or email address, when you voluntarily submit it to Retrophin.
Cookies and Other Non‑Personally Identifiable Information — While you are browsing this site, we automatically log your IP address (a number assigned to your computer when you use the Internet) and your activity while using this site. We also collect information about your usage of our site through cookies and similar technology. There are two types of cookies: session cookies (non‑persistent cookies) and persistent cookies. Session cookies temporarily store non‑personally identifiable information about your visit to our website in your computer’s memory. The cookie is deleted as soon as you close your browser. Persistent or permanent cookies will uniquely identify your browser and will permanently save in your computer’s memory information requested by the website.
With both cookies and transparent GIF files, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or email address.
We also track the total number of visitors to our website, the number of visitors to each page of the website, and the domain names of our visitors’ Internet service providers. On certain Retrophin websites, we may also ask users that have opted to receive information to complete a survey. No personally identifiable information is gathered in any of these processes.
How Retrophin Uses This Information
Personally Identifiable Information — This information may be used by Retrophin personnel or agents of Retrophin to obtain more information, to improve this site, or to provide you with information that you have requested or additional information which Retrophin believes may be of interest to you.
Retrophin does not sell any of your personally identifiable information for marketing or advertising purposes.
Cookies and Other Non‑Personally Identifiable Information — Cookies allow us to bring you the content and features likely to be of greatest interest to you based on your previous activities on our site. In Retrophin sites that require passwords, you are giving us explicit permission to use a “persistent cookie,” which is a small data file that is generated when you enter your assigned user id and password and access the site. This file is saved in your computer’s memory, and enables your browser to access each page that is in the password‑protected area.
Pixels, or transparent GIF files, are used to help us manage our online advertising. For example, third party vendors, including Google, show Retrophin ads on sites on the internet. These vendors also use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to Retrophin’s website.
We use other non‑personally identifiable information, including information obtained through surveys, to improve this site.
Storage and Transfer of Information
Personally Identifiable Information — If at any time you wish to stop receiving emails or other communications from us, or if you have submitted personally identifiable information through our website and would like to have that information deleted from our records, please notify us. You may also request access to personal data about you that Retrophin holds and you may have the opportunity to request a correction or amendment to your personal data.
As a reminder to you when exchanging emails, any email that you send or receive on your employer’s email system may be the property of your employer. Consequently, your employer may have the ability to review your personal information sent via email.
Please note that although we attempt to adhere to requests to remove personal data from our records, it may not be possible to remove all copies depending on the manner in which the information was submitted to us. In addition, we reserve the right not remove or amend information provided to us regarding an adverse drug effect and information that is otherwise required to be retained by law.
Cookies and Other Non‑Personally Identifiable Information — Your Web browser can be set to allow you to control whether you will accept cookies, reject cookies, or to notify you each time a cookie is sent to you. If your browser is set to reject cookies, sites like ours that are cookie‑enabled will not recognize you when you return to the site and some site functionality may be lost.
Users may opt out of Google's use of cookies by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page.
Users always have the option of declining to participate in any survey they receive from Retrophin.
Links to Third Party Sites
As a convenience to our visitors, our sites currently contain links to a number of other (non‑Retrophin) sites that we believe may offer useful information. The privacy policy presented here does not apply to those sites. You should contact these sites directly for information on their privacy policies, confidentiality agreements, and data collection/distribution procedures.
Please note that linked non‑Retrophin sites may also use cookies. Retrophin cannot control the use of cookies by these non‑Retrophin sites. In addition, when you link from a Retrophin website to another website, that site may have the ability to recognize that you have come from a Retrophin site. If you do not want any other websites to know that you have been on this website, we recommend that you do not use the links provided in our site.
