This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how Mirador Therapeutics, Inc. and our subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Mirador,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) collect, use and share your personal information in connection with our website at https://miradortx.com/ and any other websites or online platforms we operate that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Site”), our social media profiles, our email communications, and our related services and offerings (collectively, the “Platform”), and the choices that you have with respect to your personal information.
We reserve the right, at any time, to modify this Privacy Policy. If we make revisions that change the way we collect, use, or share personal information, we will post those changes in this Privacy Policy. You should review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you keep up to date on our most current policies and practices. We will note the effective date of the latest version of our Privacy Policy at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.

1. COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal Information You Provide to Us. We collect and process personal information for different purposes:
- When you contact us for general inquiries, to subscribe to our email alerts or for information about our clinical trials. If you submit an inquiry through our website, send us an email or call us directly, we collect personal information from you such as your name, email address, phone number and the reason for your communication. We use this information to respond to your inquiry or provide you with the information that you are looking for when you navigate our website. We also collect any marketing preferences you may provide relating to our communications, such as if you unsubscribe to our email communications.
- Clinical trials. We do not collect personal information directly from the subjects that participate in our clinical trials. Subject personal information is collected by the sites that manage the trials that we sponsor. The subject data that we obtain from the sites is pseudonymized, meaning that a subject’s identifiable personal information is replaced with a code that we cannot link back to that individual. In general, any personal information we collect in connection with our clinical trials is addressed in the applicable informed consent form or other privacy notice provided separately.
- Clinical trial site staff and investigators. We collect personal information from these individuals to review their credentials and ensure they are qualified to perform the work related to the clinical trial.
- When you attend symposia or conferences where we participate. We may collect your contact information as well as your qualifications. We use this information to answer any questions you may have about Mirador and to keep track of the number of visitors to Mirador’s booth.
Unless we specifically request it, we ask that you not provide us with any sensitive personal information (e.g., information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, health, biometrics or genetic characteristics, criminal background or trade union membership).
Personal Information Collected Automatically. We, our service providers, and our business partners may automatically log or collect information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your activity over time on our Platform and other sites and online services, including:
- Device data, such as your computer or mobile device operating system type and version number, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, IP address, unique identifiers, the website you visited before browsing to our website, and general location information such as city, state or geographic area.
- Online activity data, such as pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about your activity on a page or screen, access times, and duration of access.
Like many online services, the Platform uses cookies and similar technologies to facilitate automatic data collection, which may include:
- Cookies, which are text files that websites store on a visitor’s device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of helping you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, enabling functionality, helping us understand user activity and patterns, and facilitating online advertising.
- Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are typically used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked, typically to compile statistics about usage of websites and the success of marketing campaigns.
- Local storage, which is used to save data on a visitor’s device. We may use data from local storage to, for example, turn on web navigation, store multimedia preferences, customize what we show you based on your past interactions with our Platform, remember your preferences, or measure ad effectiveness.
Personal Information from Third Parties. We may obtain personal information about you from third parties, such as the organization you work for, public sources (such as social media profiles), event sponsors, and our other business partners. We may also obtain de-identified, limited data sets of personal information from third party collaborators and scientific partners for use in our internal research and development efforts pursuant to written agreements containing appropriate safeguards for the protection of such personal information as required by applicable law.
Referrals. You may have the opportunity to refer colleagues or other contacts to us and share their contact information with us. Please do not refer someone to us or share their contact information with us unless you have their permission to do so.
