The Pfizer Incubator (“TPI”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer Inc, TPI and Pfizer Inc.’s affiliates are referred to collectively as “Pfizer”). TPI Pfizer is committed to protecting the privacy of the information collected from external individuals and organizations through Pfizer's online opportunity submission process. This Data Privacy Policy for TPI Submission supplements the Pfizer Privacy Policy (http://www.pfizer.com/pfizer/privacy/mn_privacy_truste.jsp) and applies to personal identifiable information and other personal data (referred to as Contact Data) provided to Pfizer in conjunction with the online opportunity submission process.

When submitting you’re the TPI Submission online, you will be submitting your personal data to TPI located in the United States. The United States may not have the same level of data protection laws as may be afforded to you in your country. Therefore, it is important for you to review this Data Privacy Policy for Online TPI Submission before submitting your TPI Submission online.

Your Contact Data will be used in conjunction with the processing and evaluation of your opportunity suggestion. Pfizer and TPI strive to maintain very high standards for the collection, processing, use, and transfer of Contact Data gathered in this context.

If you submit your Contact Data through this online service, your Contact Data will be handled and protected in accordance with the following guidelines:

Type of Data Collected
Pfizer requires that you provide certain personal identifiable information during the Online TPI Submission process. This data is likely to include: your name, your address, the research organization that you are affiliated with, and any other information that you elect to transmit through the opportunity submission process. This information will be used to create a personal profile and to evaluate your opportunity suggestion

Process of Data
Personal data collected through the online opportunity submission process will be stored and used for the purpose of evaluating your opportunity suggestion. If your opportunity suggestion results in a collaboration with Pfizer, Pfizer will further process your Contact Data during contract administration. Processing of Contact Data includes using, storing, recording, transferring, adapting, summarizing, amending, sharing and destroying Contact Data as necessary under the circumstances or as otherwise required by law.

Storage of Data
Pfizer will retain Contact Data in its systems for a period of time as Pfizer deems appropriate based on customary local Records Management practices and applicable legal requirements

Security of Data
Pfizer is committed to maintaining security of personal data submitted online and off-line. When you are asked to provide your Contact Data, Pfizer uses data security technologies customary in the industry to protect the manual and electronic processing of such data. While Pfizer uses security technology during the online opportunity submission process, Pfizer also ensures adequate security during storage to avoid loss, misuse, unauthorized access and disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

Transfers of Data
As a global company, Pfizer is able to leverage technology to efficiently obtain TPI Submissions online. To adequately evaluate your online opportunity submission, Pfizer may provide access to your Contact Data to Pfizer personnel for the purposes of evaluating your opportunity suggestion. This will involve the transfer of your Contact Data in and outside of your country. It will also be necessary to disclose your Contact Data to suppliers, contractors or service agents providing services to Pfizer in connection with your online opportunity submission and Pfizer's evaluation of your opportunity suggestion. For example, subject to certain legal requirements, Pfizer may use external service providers to collect, process and validate your Contact Data, such as name, address, and email. Pfizer typically requires that such service providers comply with Pfizer's privacy policies and local legal requirements when providing such services. Pfizer will also disclose your Contact Data to third parties if Pfizer determines, in its discretion, that such disclosure is necessary to protect Pfizer's legal interests. These transfers may be transmitted over the internet, via mail, via facsimile, or by any other method that Pfizer determines is appropriate and in accordance with applicable law.
