Like most companies, we share information in certain circumstances with third parties through operation of our website and our business. Below we explain when that happens.
Service Providers

These service providers will have access to your information in order to provide services to us.
As Directed By You and With Your Consent
Except as otherwise provided in this Policy, we share information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Syntis only at your direction or when we have your consent to do so.
Legal Proceedings
We may share information with third party companies, organizations, governmental authorities, or individuals outside of Syntis if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
- Meet any applicable law, regulation, subpoena, legal process or governmental request;
- Enforce a contract, including but not limited to any applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof;
- Detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; or

We may share information about you as part of a merger or acquisition if Syntis is involved in a merger, asset sale, financing, liquidation or bankruptcy, or acquisition of all or some portion of our business to another company, we may share your information with that company before and after the transaction closes. In such a case, unless otherwise directed by applicable law, your information would remain subject to the terms of the applicable privacy policy in effect at the time of such transfer.
Aggregate Information
We may de-identify or aggregate information so that you are not identified as an individual, and use and provide that information to third parties without restriction. We may also provide aggregate usage information to third parties (or allow third parties to collect that information from you), who may use such information to understand how often and in what ways people use our website. However, we never disclose aggregate usage or de-identified information to a third party (or allow a third party to collect such information) in a manner that would identify you as an individual person.
Opting Out
You may unsubscribe from Syntis marketing communications at any time by following the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any such communication. Most promotional communications will also offer recipients choices about receiving additional messages.
International Transfer
We are based in the United States, and our website is hosted there. If you are using our website from another country, the laws governing our collection and use of information may be different from the laws of your country. If you decide to use our website, or share your information with us, you are agreeing to be governed by the laws of the United States, and agree to the transfer of your information to the United States.
Children
Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not attempt to use our website or send any information about yourself to us. If you are the parent of a child under the age of 13, and you believe he or she has shared information with us, please contact us at info@syntis.bio so that we can remove such information from our systems.
Security of Your Information
We use reasonable security measures, including measures designed to protect against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage to your information. We also take certain measures to enhance the security of our website, however, since the Internet is not a 100% secure environment, we cannot guarantee, ensure, or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. There is no guarantee that information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. It is your responsibility to protect the security of your login information.
Retention of Information
We retain information in accordance with applicable laws. The length of time we keep information depends on the type of information and whether we have an on-going business or legal need to retain it (for example, to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements).
Third Party Websites and Website
Our website may contain links to other websites and services operated by third parties. These third-party websites and services may collect information about you if you click on a link or visit those websites or services. Your interactions with these features and third parties are governed by the privacy policy of the third party, not by this Policy.
