In certain circumstances, Henry Schein may be required to disclose personal information when required by law, when required to protect our legal rights, or in an emergency situation where the health or security of an individual is endangered.
We may also disclose personal information in the context of any sale or transaction involving all or a portion of the business.
Henry Schein uses DigiCert, Inc. for its sites' security certificates. Please be aware that these protection tools do not protect information that is not collected through our Web site, such as information provided to us by e-mail.
We also conduct information risk assessments, we train our staff to understand the importance of protecting personal information, and we are responsibly managing access rights within the company. We include both physical security and IT security in our overall data security approach. We are diligent in selecting vendors that process personal information on our behalf so that they also ensure appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the data.
Henry Schein makes reasonable efforts to notify individuals and regulatory authorities, as required by law, if we reasonably believe that personal information has been stolen, disclosed, altered or infringed by an unauthorized person.
We also endorse the concept of privacy by design which is an approach to projects that promotes privacy and data protection compliance from the outset. This means considering the privacy and security implications for any new project or process throughout its lifecycle.
Under certain circumstances, you may have the privacy rights described in this section. Any request you submit to us is subject to an identification and verification process. We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify you are the individual about whom we collected personal information.
If you require this notice to be provided in a different format (e.g audio and Braille), please submit the request to Henry Schein by either:
If we cannot comply with a request, we will explain the reasons in our response. We will use personal information provided in a verifiable request only to verify your identity or authority to make the request and to track and document request responses.
We will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify personal information that we collect, process, store, disclose and otherwise use and to respond to your applicable privacy rights requests. In some cases, we may suggest that you receive the most recent or a summary of your personal information and give you the opportunity to elect whether you want the rest. We will typically not charge a fee to fully respond to your requests; provided, however, that we may charge a reasonable fee, or refuse to act upon a request, if your request is excessive, repetitive, unfounded or overly burdensome. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, or that we may refuse it, we will give you notice explaining why we made that decision. You will be provided a cost estimate and the opportunity to accept such fees before we will charge you for responding to your request.
