Privacy Policy and Notice of Information Practices:
Data Collection
Genzyme only collects personally identifiable data such as your name, address, telephone number or email address when you voluntarily submit it to Genzyme. This information may be used by Genzyme personnel as a means to contact you to obtain more information, to improve this site, or it might be used to provide you with information that you have requested or additional information which Genzyme believes may be of interest to you. The data will not be transferred outside the company without your prior consent, but may be used within Genzyme or by a company acting as an agent of Genzyme for processing and mailing purposes. Genzyme may also use this information within the company for performing marketing studies or for other commercial purposes for which it may receive compensation.
Genzyme maintains the data collected in an electronic database of voluntarily submitted personally identifiable information. Genzyme and its agents may exchange such information with each other or with you over the internet or intranet systems for the purposes of carrying out the services described above.
While Genzyme makes every reasonable effort to protect the information collected through its websites, please be aware that there is always some risk involved when submitting data over the Internet. We cannot guarantee that our website is 100% safe from illegal tampering or "hacking." Any data transmitted over the Internet may be at risk; however, once it is received at Genzyme and entered into its database, it has the same protection that Genzyme extends to its own confidential information.
We track the total number of visitors to our website, the number of visitors to each page of the website, and the domain names of our visitors' Internet service providers. No personally identifiable information is gathered in this process.

Our website uses a technology called "non-persistent cookies," which is a small data file that a server gives to your browser when you access a website in order to let you access the pages you request and to track the pages visited. Using non-persistent cookies to track page visits helps us analyze our site usage more accurately.
On some of our websites, we also use pixels, or transparent GIF files, to help manage online advertising. These GIF files are provided by our ad management partner, DoubleClick. These files enable DoubleClick to recognize a unique cookie on your Web browser, which in turn enables us to learn which advertisements bring users to our website. The cookie was placed by us, or by another advertiser who works with DoubleClick. With both cookies and Spotlight technology, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or email address.
