At Bio-Imaging Technologies, Inc., we are
strongly committed to protecting your privacy. You can navigate
the majority of our site without giving us any personal information

about you in order to provide the information or services
you are requesting.
Your privacy is important to us. To protect
your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our online information
practices and the choices you can make about the way your information
is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make
it available on every page of our site, particularly at every
point where you may opt to provide us your personally identifiable
information.
The Information We Collect
This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the Bio-Imaging
website, http://www.bioimaging.com. We collect information in several ways,
which are described below:

The personal information collected when you
register to receive information on an automated basis is your

you have the option of canceling your registration and removing
your email from the database by simply clicking on the unsubscribe
link at the bottom of each email alert message.
2. On some pages, you may opt to provide
us information about yourself if you are interested (a) in
serving as a Radiologist in a clinical trial; or (b) in an

forms may include your name, title, company name, address,
contact numbers, and email. However, only your name and email

to receive access to webcasts, periodic newsletters, or information
on a specific Bio-Imaging product or service. Generally, the
personal information collected when you register to receive
this type of information is your name, company, affiliation,

and aggregate measurement purposes only.
The Way We Use Information
We store the information you provide about yourself in a secure database in
order to provide you with the information, products, and/or services you

you request that it be removed. The information you provide us about yourself
will be shared with Bio-Imaging employees to the extent necessary to accommodate
your request. You must consent for us to share your identifiable information
with third parties, who would be bound by a confidentiality agreement.
For example, if you provide your name, mailing
address, telephone and email address and request more information
about Bio-Imaging's services, this information will be shared
with appropriate Bio-Imaging personnel to fulfill your request.
