Privacy Policy
Bayer is aware that the security of your private information
from the use of our website is an important concern. We take the
protection of your personal data very seriously. Therefore we would
like you to know what data we maintain and what data we discard.
With this privacy statement, we would like to inform you about our
security measures.
Collection of data
You can use our website without disclosing your personal data.
You are not required to provide personal information as a condition
of using our site, except as may be necessary to provide you a
product or service at your request. When you use our website, data
may be stored for various security purposes. This data may include
the name of your Internet service provider, the website that you
used to link to our site, the web sites that you visit from our
site and your IP address. This data could possibly lead to your
identification, but we do not use it to do so. We do use the data
from time to time for statistical purposes, but maintain the
anonymity of each individual user so that the person cannot be
identified. In cases when personal data is provided to others to
provide you products or services you have requested, or for other
purposes you have authorized, we rely on technical and
organizational means to assure that applicable data security
regulations are followed.
Collection and processing of personal data
We collect personal data only when you provide it to us, through
registration, completion of forms or e-mails, as part of an order
for products or services, inquiries or requests about materials
being ordered and similar situations in which you have chosen to
provide the information. The database and its contents remain at
our company and stay with data processors or servers acting on our
behalf and responsible to us. Your personal data will not be passed
on by us or by our agents for use by third parties in any form
whatsoever, unless we have obtained your consent or are legally
required to do so. We will retain control of and responsibility for
the use of any personal data you disclose to us. Some of this data
may be stored or processed in computers located in other
jurisdictions, such as the United States, whose data protection
laws may differ from the jurisdiction in which you live. In such
cases, we will ensure that appropriate protections are in place to
require the data processor in that country to maintain protections
on the data that are equivalent to those that apply in the country
in which you live.
Purposes of use
The data we collect will only be used for the purpose of
supplying you with the requested products or services or for other
purposes for which you have given your consent, except where
otherwise provided by law.
Right of access and correction
You have the right to review and amend any personal data stored
in our system if you believe it may be out of date or incorrect.
Just send an e-mail to the address given in the imprint or contact
the Data Protection Officer at the address below.
Right of cancellation
You have the right at any time to withdraw your consent to the
use of your personal data in the future. Again, just send an e-mail
to the address given in the imprint or contact the Data Protection
Officer at the address below.
Data retention
We only retain personal data for as long as is necessary for us
to render a service you have requested or to which you have given
your consent, except where otherwise provided by law (e.g. in
connection with pending litigation).

Security
Bayer uses technical and organizational security precautions to
protect your data from manipulation, loss, destruction or access by
unauthorized persons. Any personal data that is provided to Bayer
by you will be encrypted in transit to prevent its possible misuse
by third parties. Our security procedures are continuously revised
based on new technological developments.
Children
In light of the importance of protecting children's privacy, we
do not collect, process or use on our website any information
relating to an individual whom we know to be under 13 years old
without the prior, verifiable consent of his or her legal
representative. Such legal representative has the right, upon
request, to view the information provided by the child and/or to
require that it be deleted.
