the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer), the type of
operating system you are using (e.g., Windows 2000), and the domain name and

Webtrends Our
Web server will install a cookie on your machine in order to aid the accuracy

This website uses Internet Protocol
(IP) Addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your
Internet service provider so you can access the Internet. Generally, an IP
address changes each time you connect to the Internet (it is a
"dynamic" address). Note, depending on your individual circumstance,
it is possible that your IP Address that we collect,
or even perhaps a cookie we use, may contain information that could be deemed
identifiable. This is because with some internet connections your IP Address
doesn't change (it is "static") and could be associated with your
personal computer. We use your IP address to report aggregate information on
usage trends to help improve the website.
Areas of this website that collect
Your Information use industry standard secure socket layer encryption (SSL);
however, to take advantage of this your browser must support encryption
protection (found in Internet Explorer release 3.0 and above).

these individuals or entities perform for, or with, Elanco. These agents,
contractors or partners are restricted from using this data in any way other
than to provide services for Elanco, or services for the collaboration in which
they and Elanco are engaged (for example, some of our products are developed
and marketed through joint agreements with other companies). We may, for
example, provide your information to agents, contractors or partners for
hosting our databases, for data processing services, or so that they can mail
you information that you requested.
Elanco reserves the right to share
Your Information to respond to duly authorized information requests of
governmental authorities or where required by law. In exceptionally rare
circumstances where national, state or company security is at issue (such as
with the World Trade Center terrorist act in September, 2001), Elanco reserves
the right to share our entire database of visitors and customers with
appropriate governmental authorities.
We may also provide Your Information
to a third party in connection with the sale, assignment, or other transfer of
the business of this website to which the information relates, in which case we
will require any such buyer to agree to treat Your Information in accordance
with this Privacy Policy.
