To identify you by email and account to for accessing your own data.
To enable us to contact you when necessary in connection with questions or comments you may have posted in the App.
To enable us to log and prosecute abuse of this policy, or any other relevant policy.

V. WHAT THIRD PARTIES, IF ANY, IS THE DATA SHARED WITH

Unless otherwise specified herein, Bifarm will not give, sell or provide access to your personal information to any company, individual, or organization for its use in marketing, commercial solicitation, or other promotional purposes.

In order to operate the App, Bifarm may share your personal information with third party contractors. These third parties will be contractually required to protect your personal information as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

We will not share the information you give us with a government agency except as required by court order or other government demand that has the force of law, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

VI. HOW DATA IS ANONYMIZED/PROTECTED

Bifarm’s App uses industry standard technical, administrative and physical safeguards to maintain the security of your personal information. Bifarm enables the password you input to be encrypted when in route between your browser and the Bifarm server(s) and when in route between the Bifarm server(s) and some other browser or server. This practice helps prevent unauthorized third parties from intercepting and gaining access to your private data during transmission over the Internet. Bifarm uses Secure Socket Layer encryption supported by all popular Web browsers.

Some of the data you provide us, such as your name and email address, is stored in a password-protected environment, and access is provided only to those who require access to administer and maintain the system, provide requested support, or respond to your inquiry or comments.

VII. MUTUAL OBLIGATION TO PROTECT PRIVACY

To access the App functions, users must input their credentials. Users who do not have InCommon credentials may be issued self-selected passwords. For security reasons, your password must not be disclosed to any other party. Users acknowledge that disclosing passwords to others may result in the temporary or permanent termination of their rights to use the App. The misuse of passwords or misrepresentation of identity by use of another's password may compromise the security of the service, and would allow Bifarm to enforce its rights under the Terms of Use. If you lose control of your InCommon credentials or self-selected password, you may lose substantial control of your personally identifiable information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately contact the administrator who issues InCommon credentials at your institution to reset your old password. If your password has been compromised and you do not have InCommon credentials, please contact the App administrator at the email address provided below. Bifarm and InCommon shall not be responsible for any damages incurred as a result of unauthorized use of your password and hereby expressly disclaim all responsibility for any such damages.

VIII. ACCESS TO PERSONAL INFORMATION AND OPPORTUNITY TO UPDATE INFORMATION

Users may access and update the information provided to Bifarm in connection with registration to use the App at any time by contacting the App administrator at the email address provided below.

IX. NOTICE FOR UPDATES AND CHANGES TO POLICY

As our App evolves, we may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the manner in which we deal with personal information, whether to comply with applicable regulations and self-regulatory standards, or otherwise. The Privacy Policy posted here will always be current. We encourage you to review this statement regularly.
