Agilent Technologies, Inc. values your privacy and the protection of your Personal Data. This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) explains how Agilent Technologies, and our affiliates process information collected from or about you (“Personal Data”). Agilent has multiple legal entities in different jurisdictions that are responsible for the Personal Data they process, and we process Personal Data in accordance with applicable laws.
Agilent bases our privacy practices on accepted principles of privacy and data protection. These principles include:
Transparency: To be open about and communicate how and why we collect Personal Data before such collection takes place.
Fairness: To respect individual’s privacy and obtain Personal Data in good faith by legitimate, lawful, and fair means, while acting in accordance with our Privacy Notice.
Design in Privacy and Security: To create solutions and process Personal Data with privacy and data security at the forefront and in accordance with these principles.
This Notice describes the types of Personal Data that Agilent may collect or process, how we may use and disclose that Personal Data, and how you may exercise any rights you may have regarding our processing of your Personal Data.
This Notice applies to Personal Data collected or processed by us online (through websites, applications, email, interactions with you on social media and otherwise) (“Online Services”); when we provide products or services to your doctor, hospital, medical treatment or commercial laboratory, or other healthcare provider (collectively, “Healthcare Organization,” which refers both to the Healthcare Provider institution, organization, or company, and individuals employed by or working for or with such organization “Healthcare Professionals”); when we process health information and in connection with adverse events, complaints, and reports; when we process information regarding transfers of value to you as a Healthcare Professional to satisfy regulatory reporting obligations we are subject to; when we process information in other situations where you interact with us, including but not limited to interacting with or visiting our sites and offices or our events (e.g., tradeshows, virtual events, and conferences) (such products, services, Online Services, and other systems collectively, the “Products and Services”); when we process your data as an employee of a company for which we provide Products or Services, or collaborate to develop or sell such Products or Services; when we process your data as an employee of a company from which we procure products or services; when we process your Personal Data as a prospective employee of Agilent; or anywhere this Notice is posted or referenced. This Notice also applies to Personal Data that is collected or processed when you interact with us in person, by telephone, or by mail.
Agilent may have other unique privacy notices that apply to certain specific situations, including informed consent forms for use in research. To the extent you were provided with a different privacy notice or policy and those policies or notices apply, those policies or notices will govern our interactions with you, not this one.
If you provide us with Personal Data of anyone other than yourself (such as a patient or family member), please note that you are responsible for complying with all applicable privacy and data protection laws prior to providing that information to Agilent (including obtaining consent, if required).
Please review this Notice carefully. To the extent permitted by applicable law, by providing us your Personal Data or otherwise interacting with us, you are agreeing to this Notice.
The Agilent subsidiary or affiliate with whom you, your employer, your Healthcare Organization, or your patient is interacting or who owns and operates the Product or Service is, where applicable, the entity responsible for the collection and use of your Personal Data (known in some jurisdictions as the “data controller”).
Personal Data” is any information—as electronically or otherwise recorded—that can be used to identify a person or that we can link directly to an individual, such as name, address, email address or telephone number. Personal Data in some jurisdictions can include information that indirectly identifies a person, such as a unique number assigned to a patient by a Healthcare Organization or a clinical trial participant, even absent other identifying information.
Personal Data may include information considered sensitive in some jurisdictions, such as biometric information, genetic information, medical and health information, financial account information, geolocation, ethnic or racial origin, information concerning your sex life or your sexual orientation, and other information. Please note that, for patients, as described below, we may receive information about you from Healthcare Professionals or Healthcare Organizations involved in your treatment, or others, when legally permitted.
We will process any Personal Data we collect in accordance with applicable law and as described in this Notice (unless, as explained above, a separate policy or notice governs). In some circumstances, if you do not provide us with your Personal Data, certain Products and Services may be unavailable to you.
Below is a high-level summary of the types of Personal Data we may collect from you. Following that high-level summary is additional detail and information on how we collect, process, and use Personal Data and the potential recipients of your Personal Data, and how we have done so in the preceding 12 months. Some jurisdictions require us to state the legal bases for processing your Personal Data, which are included below, but please note that not all jurisdictions may recognize all legal bases.

When we previously obtained your consent, to withdraw consent to processing; and
