Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 29, 2023

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data collected and processed by Leloir, the operator and owner of leloir.com, during interactions with users. This includes visits to our website, accessing investor and shareholder information, and visits to our pages on third-party social media sites like LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, and similar platforms. The policy also covers communications with Leloir, applications for career opportunities, and subscriptions to the Leloir newsletter.

Data Processing on Behalf of Clients (EU Residents & Québec Residents)

For users in the European Union (EU) and Quebec, Leloir acts as a data processor, processing personal data in line with our clients' instructions, who act as data controllers. Our clients are responsible for establishing the lawful basis for data collection and processing, including necessary consent. For inquiries about data collection and processing by our clients, please contact them directly. In Quebec, in compliance with Law 25, we ensure transparency in data processing, obtain explicit consent, and allow users the right to access, rectify, and delete their data, as well as the right to data portability.

Third-Party Links

leloir.com may contain links to third-party websites and social media sites. We do not control these third parties' data collection and processing. They may have their own privacy policies, and we recommend reviewing these policies when visiting such sites.

Data Collection

We collect personal data directly from users visiting leloir.com, inquiring about our products and services, or applying for career opportunities. Under GDPR and Quebec's Law 25, we act as a data controller, processing data with consent or other legal bases. Users have the right to withdraw consent at any time.

Marketing Data

We collect marketing data, such as names, email addresses, company names, business addresses, telephone numbers, preferences, and social media engagement. Our website uses cookies, and we adhere to the privacy-by-default principle. Essential cookies for site functionality cannot be blocked. If you consent to advertising cookies, we use this data for personalized advertising.

If you consent to Leloir's use of advertising cookies, we collect and process Marketing Data to promote our products and services, as well as to provide you with personalized and tailored advertising based on your preferences.

Sharing of Personal Data

We may share personal data with service providers under contractual agreements to process data according to our instructions and with appropriate safeguards. Our service providers assist with various services, including employment, chat hosting, infrastructure, communications, analytics, ad tracking, webinar hosting, ERP/HCM, and CRM.

We may share data with subsidiaries in Canada, the US, the EU, and elsewhere as needed for our services. We may also share data for legal compliance, to respond to public and government requests, enforce our policies, address emergencies, or prevent fraud.

In business transactions like mergers or acquisitions, personal data may be transferred as part of the transaction.

Data Storage and Transfer

We store data in data centres and cloud environments in the US, Canada, and the EU. Operations in the EU comply with GDPR. Some services may involve collaboration with US-based providers.

Information Security

We implement physical, technical, and organizational security measures, including SOC and ISO 27001 certifications, to protect personal data. However, we cannot guarantee complete security due to evolving cyber threats.
