Regeneron is a global organization with affiliates, partners and subcontractors located in many countries around the world. Your Personal Data may be accessed from or transferred to countries outside of where your Personal Data was collected. This includes the United States and other countries where Regeneron is located, has a collaborator who is conducting research, or where Regeneron seeks to market its products. Although these countries may not have the same level of Personal Data protection as the country where you live, Regeneron has implemented technical and organizational safeguards to protect your Personal Data and is ultimately responsible for protecting your privacy.

If you are located in the EEA, be advised that Regeneron has implemented the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of Personal Data between our affiliates, partners and collaborators, which require parties to protect Personal Data they process from Europe in accordance with local data protection laws. A copy can be obtained by requesting directly from the Data Privacy Office, see the Updates and Contacting Us section below.

How Do We Protect Your Personal Data?

Regeneron uses technical and organizational security measures to guard against unauthorized access to your Personal Data or against the unauthorized alteration, disclosure, destruction and/or loss of such data. In deciding what level of security is appropriate, Regeneron will take into account the nature of the Personal Data in question, and the harm that might result from its unauthorized use, disclosure or loss.

Although we take reasonable precautions to protect the information we collect on the Regeneron Sites, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
