Privacy Policy

Please read this privacy policy carefully before using this website. This Online Privacy Policy informs our visitors how we treat personal information that you may provide us using this website.

Data Collection
Ionis respects the privacy of visitors to our website and only collects personal information when you provide it to us voluntarily. You may visit our website without telling us anything about yourself. If you contact us and choose to provide personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, telephone number or e-mail address, we may combine that information with data you share with us offline. We will use this information and may share it with other companies and/or individuals (e.g., our partners, consultants, and service providers) for the purpose for which you submitted it to us. For example, if you requested information regarding a particular program, we may use the information you provide to respond to your inquiry or to provide you with information that you requested. We will not send unsolicited messages to users of our website who indicate they do not wish to receive such messages. If you do not wish to receive unsolicited email messages from us, please contact us at [email protected].

From time to time, our website may be configured to collect domain information such as the pages visited and links clicked. This data is collected for analytics purposes and enables us to become more familiar with which users visit our site, how often they visit and what parts of the site they visit most often. Ionis uses this information to improve our website. No personally identifiable information is gathered in this process. This information is collected automatically and requires no action on your part.

Cookies
Periodically, some pages on this website may use “cookies,” which are small files that the site places on your hard drive for identification purposes. These files are used for site registration and customization the next time you visit us. You should note that cookies cannot read data off of your hard drive. Your web browser may allow you to be notified when you are receiving a cookie, giving you the choice to accept it or not. You can also refuse all cookies by turning them off in your browser. By not accepting cookies, some pages may not fully function and you may not be able to access certain information on this website.

Our website uses Google Analytics, a website analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies to analyze use patterns and may collect information about your use of our website, including your IP address.

Storage and Sharing of Information
Ionis, or in some cases third party companies and/or individuals that work with or for us, may store the personally identifiable data collected via this site in an electronic database. Ionis and these third parties may also exchange such data with each other or with you over the Internet or over intranet systems to process the data, send information to you in response to your request, or otherwise carrying out the purposes described above. We may also release your personally identifiable data in response to a court order, subpoena, search warrant, or applicable law or regulation. In such circumstances we will take appropriate measures to ensure that the requester understands the sensitive nature of the personally identifying information that they may receive.

While Ionis makes reasonable efforts to protect the personally identifiable data collected through its website, please be aware that there is always some risk involved when submitting data over the Internet. We cannot guarantee that our website is 100% safe from illegal tampering or “hacking.” Any data transmitted over the Internet may be at risk.
