Protection of information

How Pfizer handles privacy internally

Our commitment to security

We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect online. While we strive to protect your personal data against potential risks and exposures, the absolute security of data in the online sphere cannot be guaranteed.

Third parties
We may share the aggregate de-identified information (discussed previously), with third parties as described below.
• Companies and people who work for us: Because we are a large company, we contract with other companies and individuals to help us provide services. For example, we may host some of our websites on another company's computers, hire technical consultants to maintain our web-based health sites, or work with companies to remove repetitive information from customer lists, analyze data, provide marketing assistance, and provide customer service.

• Business transfers: If we transfer a business unit (such as a subsidiary) or an asset (such as a website) to another company, we will require it to honor the terms of this Privacy Policy.
• Legal requirements: We may release account when we believe release is required to comply with law.
• Links to other websites: We may from time to time provide links to third party websites for your convenience and information. Such third party websites are not controlled by us.

We do not and will not, at any time, request your credit or debit card information, bank account numbers, PIN numbers or passwords in a non-secure or unsolicited e-mail or telephone communication. Please refrain from providing such information through any non-secure medium.
