Privacy Policy

General Lab Supply (“GenLab”) is the operator of this site. It is GenLab’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, GenLab collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. GenLab’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how GenLab’s visitors use its website. From time to time, GenLab may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

GenLab also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. GenLab does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to GenLab’s websites choose to interact with GenLab in ways that require GenLab to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that GenLab gathers depends on the nature of the interaction.Those who engage in transactions with GenLab – by purchasing products, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, GenLab collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with GenLab. GenLab does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

GenLab may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, GenLab may monitor the most popular parts of the gogenlab.com site. GenLab may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, GenLab does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

GenLab discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on GenLab’s behalf or to provide services available at GenLab’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using GenLab’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. GenLab will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, GenLab discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when GenLab believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of GenLab, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a GenLab website and have supplied your email address, GenLab may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with GenLab and our products. We primarily use our website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. GenLab takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
