1. Introduction
Peptivabio, LLC (“Peptivabio,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of users accessing our website for research purposes. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information from purchasers and visitors. This policy applies exclusively to operations within the United States and to research professionals and institutions. The Site is not intended for personal, household, or consumer use, and our products are not for use in humans or animals. We do not knowingly collect information from minors or general consumers.
2. Scope of Use and Intended Audience
Our platform is exclusively for qualified institutions, laboratories, and professionals conducting scientific research. Any personal or non-research use violates our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. We do not sell products for human or animal consumption and do not process personal health data, biometric data, or other consumer-protected information.
3. Information Collected
When you create an account or place an order, we may collect:
Names and institutional affiliations
Email addresses
Billing and shipping information
Limited transaction details required to process payments
We also collect technical data such as IP addresses, browser information, and device identifiers to support platform functionality and security. Payment processors handle payment credentials directly; Peptivabio does not retain full credit card numbers or CVV codes.
4. Use of Information
Information collected is used to:
Verify eligibility to purchase for research purposes
Process and ship orders
Communicate about transactions or compliance updates
Improve platform operations
We do not use personal information for consumer marketing, nor do we sell, rent, or license customer information.
5. Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies and analytics tools to monitor system performance, usage trends, and detect technical or fraudulent activity. These tools do not collect personally sensitive information.
Technologies such as cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, and other anonymous identifiers may be used to:
Recognize logged-in users
Provide features based on preferences
Track site interactions
You may limit or reject cookies via your browser settings, though some Site functions may be affected. Peptivabio may respond to “Do Not Track” signals, though implementation is not standardized across all browsers.
6. Disclosure of Information
We may share limited information with third-party service providers for:
Order fulfillment
Payment processing
Technical operations
Legal compliance
These providers are bound by confidentiality and prohibited from using information for marketing purposes. Disclosure may also occur as required by law, court order, or regulatory authority.
7. Data Security
We implement commercially reasonable measures to protect information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure, including secure communications, role-based access, and trusted service providers.
However, no electronic system is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the privacy of your information, and you use our Services at your own risk. Peptivabio is not responsible for third-party breaches or circumvention of privacy settings.
8. Data Retention
Account and transaction data are retained as long as necessary for legal, regulatory, or operational purposes. Once no longer needed, data is securely deleted or de-identified. We may share information with third parties for lawful purposes without notice or compensation.
9. Access and Control
Eligible research purchasers may request access or correction of their account information by contacting our compliance team. Identity and eligibility verification may be required. Consumer data deletion requests under general consumer laws are not honored, as our operations are strictly business-to-business.
10. Children’s Data
We do not sell products to children and do not knowingly collect data from individuals under 21. Accounts created with false information will be terminated, and associated data will be purged.
11. Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in operations, legal obligations, or data practices. Material changes will be posted with a new effective date. Continued use after updates indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
