Consequently, Roche has taken the necessary precautions for doing justice to the globally applicable data protection requirements, complying with the provisions of the EU and of Germany, as well as respective other applicable standards.

With regard to the cases listed in a. and c., the data controller will take appropriate measures to guard the rights and freedoms, as well as your justified interests, which include, at a minimum, the right to have a person from the data controller intervene, to present your own position, and to appeal the decision.

An IP address is a number assigned to your computer for accessing the Internet. On the Internet, each computer is identified by means of an IP address; this allows computers and servers to recognize each other on the network and to communicate with each other. Roche collects IP address for purposes of system administration, in order to supply group companies, business partners and/or suppliers with statistics, for analyzing websites, and for reviewing the performance of a website.

On certain websites and in emails, Roche can use a popular Internet technology called “web beacon” (aka “action tag” or “clear GIF” technology). Web beacons help analyze the effectiveness of websites by measuring, e.g., how many visitors access a site, or how many visitors click on important parts of a site.
Web beacons, cookies and other technologies for tracking per se do not collect personal information about you. It is not until you voluntarily provide such information that identifies you personally, e.g., by registering or sending emails, that these automated processes can be used to collect personal information about your use of the websites and/or interactive emails in order to design these to be more useful to you.
