Privacy Policy

1. Scope and applicability

This policy applies to personal information collected through the Adveniq Biosciences website (the "Site"), including through the scientific and strategic inquiry form. It does not apply to information collected through third-party services, platforms, or links that may be referenced from this Site.

This Site is intended for scientific partners, veterinary professionals, institutional contacts, and strategic investors. It is not directed at general consumers or minors under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 18 years of age.

2. Information we collect

We collect personal information only when voluntarily provided. The types of information we may collect include:

We do not collect sensitive personal information such as health data, financial account details, or government identification numbers through this Site.

3. How we use your information

• To review and respond to scientific, veterinary, or investment inquiries submitted through the Site.
• To assess alignment between your stated interests and Adveniq's current scientific and strategic priorities.
• To maintain a record of professional contacts for the purposes of legitimate pre-commercial business development.
• To comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not use personal information for direct marketing, advertising, or any commercial purpose beyond the legitimate business activities described above. We do not sell, rent, or exchange personal information with any third party for commercial purposes.

4. Legal basis for processing

Under PIPEDA, we rely on your express consent as the primary basis for collecting and using your personal information. Consent is obtained at the point of form submission through the mandatory consent checkbox. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at the address provided in Section 9.

We may also rely on legitimate business interests where processing is necessary for purposes reasonably expected within a professional relationship, such as maintaining records of institutional correspondence.

5. Cookies and tracking technologies

This Site currently uses only essential cookies necessary for basic website operation and security. We do not use advertising cookies, behavioural tracking cookies, or third-party analytics services that collect identifiable personal data.

If we introduce analytics or non-essential cookies in the future, this policy will be updated and appropriate consent mechanisms will be implemented prior to deployment.

You may configure your browser to refuse all cookies or to alert you when cookies are being set. Refusing essential cookies may affect the functional performance of this Site.

6. Disclosure and third parties

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties, except in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers: We may engage trusted third-party service providers (such as website hosting and email services) who process data on our behalf under confidentiality obligations and only as instructed by Adveniq.
• Legal compliance: We may disclose information where required to comply with applicable law, court order, or regulatory authority.
• Business transitions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections.

Any third-party service providers we engage are required to handle personal information in a manner consistent with this policy and applicable Canadian privacy law.

7. Data retention and storage

Personal information submitted through the inquiry form is retained only as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law. In practice, inquiry records are retained for a period not exceeding 24 months from the date of last substantive contact, after which they are securely deleted or anonymised.

Data is stored on servers located in Canada or the United States. Where data is processed or stored in the United States, it may be subject to US federal law, including laws that permit access by law enforcement or national security authorities. We take reasonable contractual and technical measures to protect your information in such contexts.
