Upon your request, we may also use your Personal Data to send you special promotions or newsletters with information that may interest you.

If you are a healthcare professional or an institutional healthcare provider, you are responsible for obtaining any legally required authorization, consent or other permission from your patients prior to providing their Personal Data to Moderna. By submitting any Personal Data about a patient, you represent and warrant to Moderna that you have obtained all required permissions to do so.

We also may use the information to contact the prescribing physician to follow up regarding an event involving use of our product.

e. Through data collection tools

When permitted or you have provided consent, Moderna automatically will collect information about use of the Services through data collection tools, such as web beacons and cookies. A "web beacon" is a piece of code that enables us to monitor user activity and website traffic. A "cookie" is a randomly generated unique numeric code stored in the user’s web browser settings or computer’s hard drive. A cookie typically contains the name of the domain (internet location) from which the cookie originated, the “lifetime” of the cookie (i.e., when it expires), as well as the randomly generated unique numeric code.

For more details, please see Moderna’s Cookie Statement.

We use the information collected through data collection tools to monitor usage patterns, store information about user preferences and to improve the Services. For example, your Personal Data may be used to create customized offers, information and services tailored to your interests and preferences.  We may track your activities over time and across third-party websites, apps or other online services to display advertisements on third-party websites. If you do not want us to use your information in this way, please see “Your Privacy Choices” below.

Moderna may collect and use this information for the purposes described in this Privacy Statement or at the time the information was collected.

g. Social media plugins

When you use services, Social Media operators can place a cookie on your computer to recognize individuals who have visited previously. If you are logged into a Social Media account while using the services, the social plugins allow that Social Media to receive information that you have accessed and used the Services. The social plugins also allow the Social Media operator to share information about your activities in or through the Services with other Social Media users. Moderna does not control any of the content from the Social Media plugins. For more information about Social Media plugins, please refer to any privacy and/or other legal notices of the respective Social Media platform.

h. Through third parties

Third parties that assist us with our business operations also collect and use information (including Personal Data and Usage Data) and may share the collected information with us. For example, our vendors collect and share information with us to improve user experience, we may view your LinkedIn profile, or any other publicly available profile.

When you access any interactive service, you will be asked to affirmatively choose ("opt in") to provide the requested information. You may always choose not to provide the requested information but then you may not be able to use the Service as intended.

Your User Contribution may remain on backup media, cached or otherwise retained by Moderna for administrative or legal purposes, or your User Contribution may remain publicly available if you or someone else has forwarded or re-posted your User Contribution on another website or service prior to its deletion.

California Consumer Privacy Act - Notice for California Residents

If you are a California resident, this Privacy Notice supplements the information above regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal data.           

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) gives California consumers the right to know what personal data is collected about them, how it will be used and to whom it is disclosed.  California consumers may have the right to request access to and deletion of their personal data, and the right to request that their personal data not be sold to the extent applicable under the CCPA.

The purpose of this notice is to describe our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and sale of personal data and instructions for submitting CCPA data privacy requests.  Some of the Personal Data that we collect, use, and disclose may be exempt from the CCPA because it is regulated by other federal and state laws that apply to us.

We collect personal data from you when you interact with us online (through our Site, our other websites, Apps and Services) or offline (such as through your health care providers, if you are a patient, with your authorization as applicable.)  The personal data we may collect from you will depend on the nature of our interaction with you, but can include the following categories that we have collected in the preceding twelve (12) months:

Your Rights

California residents are provided specific rights subject to certain exceptions.

  • The Right to Know. You have the right to request that we disclose what personal data we collect, use, disclose, and sell. The process for exercising this right is describe below under How to Submit a Data Privacy Request.

  • The Right to Deletion. You have the right to request deletion of any personal data about you that we have collected from you. The process for exercising this right is describe below under How to Submit a Data Privacy Request

  • The Right to Opt-Out. You have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal data.

  • The Right to Non-Discrimination. You have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising your rights.

How to Submit a Data Privacy Request

You may exercise your Right to Know and Right to Deletion by visiting our request web page or calling (844) 971-2551.

To process your request for access or deletion, we must be able to verify your identity to a reasonable degree of certainty.  We will ask you to provide your contact information and additional identifiers based on your relationship with us.

You may designate an authorized agent to make a request to access, delete, or opt-out of the sale of your information on your behalf.  When you use an authorized agent to submit a request for access or deletion, you must provide the authorized agent with written permission to do so, and, in certain circumstances, we may ask you to verify your own identity directly with us.  We may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.

  • Right to Know:

    Please note that we may not be required to provide you access to the specific pieces of information we have collected about you or delete information if we are unable to verify your identity.

  • Right to Delete:

    We may not be required to delete information under certain circumstances. Specifically, the CCPA includes exemptions that provide that we do not have to delete data that, for example, is necessary to comply with legal obligations including those pertaining to the quality, safety or effectiveness of a product or activity regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), complete a transaction, detect security incidents, or for certain other internal purposes.

  • Sale or Disclosure of Personal data: The CCPA defines “sale” broadly to include sharing, transferring, disclosing or otherwise communicating personal data with a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration. We share personal data with service providers who work on our behalf and agree not to use or sell your personal data for other purposes or if you have intentionally directed us to share information with a third party. In addition, with your approval, we share certain internet tracking data, including cookies and the IP address used to access our websites.

  • Notice of Financial Incentive:

    Moderna does not offer financial incentives in exchange for the collection or sale of personal data. However, we do provide discounts and incentives to individuals who use our products and services and enroll in incentive programs that we offer from time to time; enrolling in these programs requires you to provide certain of your personal data so that we may administer the programs and, in some cases, provide marketing and advertising to you. Under CCPA, this could be considered an offer of a “financial incentive” and so we provide this notice to you to describe our practice and to provide a good faith estimate of the value of your personal data that we may collect related to the programs.

    In the normal course of our business, we do not assign monetary or other value to personal data, but in accordance with CCPA, we make a good faith estimate that the value of the personal data collected and used is equivalent to the value of the discount or financial incentive we provide in these programs. To make this good faith estimate, we may consider among other factors, the (i) categories of personal data collected, (ii) the discount or incentive offered, (iii) the sales or use of our products and services by those who enroll versus those who do not, and (iv) the cost and expenses we incur in offering the programs.

    The incentive programs require you to opt-in to participate as set forth on the page where you can enroll or opt-in to the programs. You can opt-out either by contacting us at the information set forth below, or by following the terms and conditions provided when you are enrolling in the program. While we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under CCPA, if you request deletion of your personal data, we may not be able to delete such information if it is necessary to administer the incentive or discount you requested and still provide you such incentive or discount.

Nevada

Nevada Residents As Covered by Nevada Privacy Law
Moderna does not sell Covered Information as defined under Nevada law. If you would like to make a further inquiry regarding the selling of your Covered Information, as defined under Nevada law, visit our request web page.

EU/EEA, UK & Switzerland

Moderna’s processing of your personal data is based on any one of the following legal grounds: (A) legitimate business purposes, (B) where you have provided consent, (C) as necessary to comply with Moderna’s legal and regulatory obligations and (D) as necessary to perform a contract under which you have been engaged.

How can you access, correct or delete the personal data about you that we process? You have a right to request to access, correct/update or delete your personal data (including your health information). You may make such a request at any time, by visiting our request web page. We will provide you with access to the information we hold about you, correct/update, and or delete that information that was provided to us by a Healthcare Professional or a consumer regarding an adverse drug event.

It is not technologically possible to remove from our servers each and every record of your information. The need to back-up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means that a copy of information about you (including your health-related interests) may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate.

Nevertheless, when permitted by law, Moderna will delete your personal data (including health information) stored in the databases Moderna actively uses for research and daily business activities or stored in other readily searchable media. In addition, we will use reasonable efforts not to disclose any personal data stored in a non-erasable format after receiving your request for removal, except as required by law.

How can you exercise the right to data portability? According to the right to data portability, you have the right to request that your personal data provided to Moderna be delivered to you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, subject to certain conditions and can be requested by visiting our request web page.

Make a Privacy Complaint with the ICO (UK). If you feel Moderna’s processing your personal data violates any applicable law, rule or regulation, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at: https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/.

Make a Privacy Complaint with the Federal Data Protection Commissioner of Switzerland. If you feel Moderna’s processing your personal data violates any applicable law, rule or regulation, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Federal Data Protection Commissioner at: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/en/home.html.

How We Manage Disclosure of Transfers of Value

Moderna collects data about the transfers of value that you have received from us so that we can comply with our obligations under the IPHA Code, specifically that companies must document and publicly disclose annually certain transfers of value made directly or indirectly to health professionals and other relevant decision makers located in Europe.

Moderna recognizes the legitimate public interest in better understanding the financial relationships that healthcare professionals have with the pharmaceutical industry for the purposes of transparency and trust in the pharmaceutical industry.

The law requires us to inform you of the legal basis for collecting and processing your personal data where Moderna is the data controller. Where Moderna processes data relating to transfers of value made to you, Moderna relies on the legal basis of legitimate interests to process that data. Moderna’s compliance with the IPHA Code and these further objectives cannot be met without processing personal data about you and the transfers of value that you have received from us. We have carried out a Legitimate Interests Assessment and consider that this processing is necessary, proportionate and without unjustified harm to you.

If you do not agree to the disclosure of data relating to transfers of value made to you by Moderna, you can raise an objection via privacy@modernatx.com.

Japan

In accordance with the Act on Protection of Personal Information of Japan (APPI) and other applicable laws and regulations, Moderna will disclose the personal data that Moderna holds about you according to the applicable procedures. In addition, if you inform Moderna that your personal data is inaccurate, Moderna will review and correct, add or delete the data as required in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and procedures.

Requests may be filed by visiting our request web page; please note that this may require a fee.
