Privacy
Kane Biotech Inc. collects personally identifying information about you only when you specifically and knowingly provide it to us.
We recognize that we need to earn your trust, and firmly believe that you should know exactly what personally identifying information we collect and how we are going to use it before you share it with us.
Basic statement
Personally identifying information that you provide to Kane Biotech Inc. will not be made available to third parties outside Kane Biotech Inc. without your explicit permission.
Kane Biotech Inc. collects personally identifying information about you only when you specifically and knowingly provide it to us. Your personally identifying information will be used to personalize your experience with Kane Biotech Inc., or for such other purposes as are described at any point where Kane Biotech Inc. collects this information from you.
Kane Biotech Inc. may make aggregate information about our customers (e.g. overall statistics) available to third parties for advertising and other purposes. Information that personally identifies you will be kept strictly confidential.
Personally identifying information which you choose to provide to another party or web site will be subject to their privacy policy.

What is personally identifying information?
“Personally identifying information” is information that can be explicitly used to identify and/or contact you as an individual. This includes information like your real name, email address, mailing address, phone number, credit card number, etc. Information that, by itself, cannot be explicitly linked with your “real” identity is not considered personally identifying. Examples of this are favorite or bookmarked web sites, or your preferences with respect to how you wish to see a given page or site set up according to the selections you choose.

This includes links from advertisers, sponsors and partners that may use the Kane Biotech Inc. logo as part of a co-branding agreement.
The Kane Biotech Inc. policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore beyond Kane Biotech Inc.’s control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.
