Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 7, 2022

Our Privacy Policy explains:

Our Policy

Mammoth Biosciences, Inc. (“Mammoth,” “we,” “our,” and/or “us”) values the privacy of individuals who use our website and related products and services. This privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) explains how we collect, use, and share information from users (“Users”) of our website at mammoth.bio (“Website”) or their devices. By using or accessing our Website, you agree to the collection, use, disclosure, and procedures this Privacy Policy describes.  The personal and other information that we collect about you is controlled by Mammoth, which is headquartered in Brisbane, California. 

What personal and other information we collect about you

Mammoth collects both “personal information” and “other information” about Users. For purposes of this Policy, “other information” is information that Mammoth cannot directly associate with a specific person without the aid of additional information. “Personal information” is information, such as a name or email address, that Mammoth can directly associate with a specific person or entity without additional information. When we combine other information with personal information, we treat all of the combined information as personal information.

Personal information. Through our Website, we collect personal information that you provide to us. 

  • Sign Up Contact information. If you sign up to explore partnership opportunities with us or to receive notifications or updates about our products and services, we ask you for your name, email address, phone number, organization, position, and information about your areas of interest.
  • Communications. If you contact us directly, we may receive additional information about you. For example, when you contact us for support, we will receive your name, email address, phone number, organization, information about your areas of interest, the contents of a message or attachments that you may send to us, and other information you choose to provide. When we send you emails, we may track whether you open them to learn how to deliver a better customer experience and improve our products and services.
  • Careers. If you make inquiries concerning career opportunities or decide that you wish to apply for a job with us, you may submit your contact information and information about your work experience and education online. We will collect the information you choose to provide on your resume, such as your education and employment experience. You may also apply through our job application submission form provided by our third-party service provider. If you do so, we collect the information you make available through your application submission, such as your resume, links to other online profiles, and other information you choose to provide.

Other information. We also collect other information through our Website. Such information may be collected passively using various technologies. Other information may be collected in the following ways:

  • Log Data. When you use the Website, we automatically receive and record certain information from your computer, mobile phone, or other devices. This may include data such as internet protocol (“IP”) address, domain name, the pages you visit or the features you use within the Website, the data and time of your activities on the Website, your software and hardware attributes (including operating system type and version, app version, device type, and device IDs), your browser type and version, the websites you visited before using our Website, the websites and search terms that brought you to our Website,  your general geographic location (e.g., your city, state, or metropolitan region), and certain cookie information (see below). To obtain such information, we may use web logs or applications that recognize your computer or device and gather information about its online activity.
  • Cookies. In providing the Website, we may use cookies. Cookies are small files that are stored on your computer or device by your web browser. Our cookies help provide additional functionality to the Website and help us analyze usage of the Website more accurately. For example, cookies can be used to collect information about your use of the Website during your current session and over time (including the pages you view and the files you download), the operating system and browser type of your computer or other device, your Internet service provider, your domain name and IP address, your general geographic location, the website that you visited before the Website, and the link you used to leave the Website. If you are concerned about having cookies on your computer, you can set your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being set, allowing you to decide whether to accept it. You can also delete cookies from your computer. However, if you choose to block or delete cookies, certain features of the Website may not operate correctly.
  • Web beacons. The Website or the emails that you receive from us may use an application known as a “web beacon” (also known as a “clear gif” or “pixel tag”). A web beacon is an electronic file that usually consists of a single-pixel image. It can be embedded in a web page or in an email to transmit information, which could include personal information. For example, it allows an email sender to determine whether a user has opened a particular email.

Information we receive from third parties

Third-Party Services. You may also post photos, comments, or reviews on our pages available through third-party platforms, including Facebook and Instagram. If you do so, we and other users may be able to view the information you make available through these third-party platforms.

Other Third Parties. We may receive additional information about you from third parties such as data or marketing partners and combine it with other information we have about you.

How we share personal and other information with third parties

We may share or otherwise disclose information we collect from or about you as described below or otherwise disclosed to you at the time of collection.

Partners and Affiliates. We may share any information we receive with our partners, subsidiaries, and affiliates for any of the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Vendors and Service Providers. We may share any information we receive with contractors, vendors, service providers, and other third parties retained in connection with the provision of our products and services.

Marketing. We do not rent, sell, or share information about you with non-affiliated companies for their direct marketing purposes, unless we have your permission.

Analytics Partners. We use analytics services such as Google Analytics to collect and process certain analytics data. These services may also collect information about your use of other websites, apps, and online resources. You can learn about Google’s practices by going to https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and opt-out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Merger, Sale, or Other Asset Transfers. We may disclose and transfer information about you to service providers, advisors, potential transactional partners, or other third parties in connection with the consideration, negotiation, or completion of a corporate transaction in which we are acquired by or merged with another company or we sell, liquidate, or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. 

Consent. We may also disclose information from or about you or your devices with your permission.

Your Choices

Marketing Communications. You can unsubscribe from our promotional emails via the link provided in the emails. Even if you opt out of receiving promotional messages from us, you will continue to receive administrative messages from us.

How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals. Some web browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” feature that signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. How browsers communicate “Do Not Track” signals is not uniform at this time, and there is no standard application of “Do Not Track”. Accordingly, our Website does not respond to such signals except as specifically required by law. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit www.allaboutdnt.com.

Please note that opting out of tracking or targeted advertising through these mechanisms does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads while online.

Third Party Content, Services and Features

Our Website may contain links to other websites, products, or services that we do not own or operate. These other websites may send their own cookies to your device, and they may independently collect data or solicit personal information. Those parties may also use technologies that automatically or passively collect personal information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you visit or use other online websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. Please be aware that this Privacy Policy does not apply to your activities on these third-party services or any information you disclose to these third parties. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such sites. If you have any questions about how these other sites use information from or about you, you should contact them directly. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before providing any information to them.

Security, Retention and Monitoring

Unless otherwise required by law, we are not responsible for monitoring or recording any activity, including communications, although we reserve the right to do so.

To help protect you and others, we may monitor use of the Website, and use personal information and other information we collect, in order to: identify fraudulent activities; prevent abuse of and investigate and/or seek prosecution for any potential threats to or misuse of the Website; ensure compliance with this Privacy Policy; investigate violations of or enforce these agreements; and otherwise, protect the rights and property of us, our partners, and Users.  Monitoring may result in the collection, recording, and analysis of online activity or communications through the Website.  If you do not consent to these conditions, you must discontinue your use of the Website.  

We seek to maintain commercially reasonable security measures designed to help protect your information against unauthorized or accidental disclosure, access, misuse, loss, or alteration. However, there is no such thing as perfect security. Although we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information.

We may retain information about you for the period necessary for us to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy and internal company policies. Unless we need to keep your information to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, or other obligations, or the information is required for business reasons (such as to resolve disputes, provide services, and enforce agreements), when Mammoth no longer needs to use your information, we will take steps to remove it from our active systems and records and/or to properly anonymize it so that you can no longer be identified from it. Even if we delete your information from active databases, the information may remain on backup or storage media to the extent allowed by applicable law. 

Children’s Privacy

Our Website, products and services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone who is under the age of 13 or sell or share such information. We recommend that persons over 13 but under 18 years of age ask their parents for permission before using the Website or sending any information about themselves to anyone over the Internet. If you learn that a child has provided us with personal information in violation of this Privacy Policy, please alert us at privacy@mammothbiosci.com.

Information for site users from outside the United States

The personal and other information that we collect through or in connection with the Website is transferred to and processed in the United States for the purposes described above. If you choose to use our Website from the European Union, Canada or elsewhere outside of the United States, please be aware that information we collect will be transferred to and processed in the United States. We also may subcontract the processing of your data to, or otherwise share your data with, affiliates or third parties in the United States or countries other than your country of residence. The data-protection laws in these countries may be different from, and less stringent than, those in your country of residence. By using our Website or providing us with any information, you fully understand and unambiguously consent to this transfer, processing, and storage of your information in the United States and other jurisdictions, where the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside and/or are a citizen.

Changes to this Policy

Our Website may change from time to time. As a result, we may need to change this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time and without prior notice. We will post any revised Privacy Policy on our website with an “effective date” indicating when the changes will take effect. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. If we materially change the ways in which we use or share information from or about you or your devices previously collected from you through our Website, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the changes through our Website, by email, or other communication.
