This Privacy Policy explains how Halcyon Commerce, Inc. (“Halcyon,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information in connection with our website and related business communications. Halcyon is a global sourcing partner for research-grade and specialty chemicals, connecting laboratories and R&D organizations with an approved international manufacturing network.
This document is prepared for publication and counsel review. Items marked TODO require confirmation before the policy is treated as final.
This Policy applies to information we obtain when you visit halcyoncommerce.com (the “Site”), submit inquiries or requests for quotation, communicate with us by email or other business channels, apply or inquire as a manufacturer or supplier, or otherwise interact with Halcyon in a commercial context.
This Policy does not apply to information processed solely under a separate written agreement that contains its own confidentiality or data-handling terms, except as those agreements incorporate this Policy by reference.
We collect information that you provide directly and information generated through ordinary use of the Site and business systems.
TODO – Confirm analytics providers and any advertising or tag-management tools in use.
We use information for legitimate business purposes consistent with operating a commercialization company, including to:
We do not sell personal information as a consumer data product. We do not operate a consumer marketplace or SaaS offering to the public.
Halcyon may use a proprietary internal system known as Atlas to organize business communications, supplier and manufacturer information, commercial opportunities, customer relationships, and operational workflows.
Atlas is an internal business system. It is designed to improve responsiveness and operational efficiency for Halcyon’s team. Atlas is not sold as a consumer product and is not offered as a public software platform.
Information processed in Atlas remains subject to this Policy and to Halcyon’s internal access controls. Atlas supports human commercial judgment; it does not make autonomous purchasing, qualification, or regulatory decisions on behalf of customers or manufacturers.
We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We encourage you to use discretion when transmitting sensitive commercial or personal information.
If you believe your information has been compromised in connection with Halcyon, contact us promptly using the details below.
Halcyon works with manufacturers and customers across regions. Information may be processed in the United States and in other countries where we, our manufacturers, or our service providers operate. Those countries may have data-protection laws that differ from the laws in your location.
Where we transfer information internationally, we take steps we consider appropriate under the circumstances, which may include contractual protections with service providers and careful limitation of what is shared for a given commercial purpose.
TODO – Confirm transfer mechanisms if counsel determines additional contractual clauses are required for specific jurisdictions.
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including to maintain commercial records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal or accounting obligations. Retention periods vary by record type and commercial relationship.
When information is no longer needed, we take steps to delete, de-identify, or securely archive it in accordance with our internal practices.
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority where available.
To make a request, contact us at the privacy email below. We may need to verify your identity and the scope of the request before responding. We will not discriminate against you for exercising rights available under applicable law.
Marketing communications: you may opt out of non-essential marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in those messages or by contacting us. Operational or transactional messages related to an active inquiry may still be sent as needed.
TODO – Confirm whether additional notices are required for specific U.S. state or international privacy regimes after counsel review.
The Site and Halcyon’s services are directed to business professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information to us, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Material changes will be posted on this page. Continued use of the Site after an update constitutes notice of the revised Policy, except where applicable law requires additional consent.
