PRIVACY POLICY
Orbita Privacy Policy
Updated August 02, 2024
PURPOSE
Orbita, Inc. (“Orbita,” “we,” “us” or “our”) operates certain websites and applications that may, directly or on behalf of our customers, collect personal information.
Orbita respects the privacy of its customers, suppliers, business partners, and individuals who entrust us with their personal information through our services.
The purpose of this policy is to describe how Orbita ensures the privacy of personal information in accordance with the laws and regulations of the countries in which the information is collected, used, and managed.
DEFINITIONS
- “Service” means any Orbita website or software application referencing this Policy.
- “Customer” means any entity with whom Orbita is contracted to provide a Service.
- “User” means any individual that accesses a Service.
- “Personal Data” means data about a User who can be identified from those data (or from those and other information either in Orbita’s possession or likely to come into Orbita’s possession).
SCOPE
This Privacy Policy applies to the Service and any Personal Data entered into the Service by or on behalf of a User.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information we collect from any source other than the data entered into a Service by or on behalf of a User. We may offer other products and services other than the Service referencing this Privacy Policy. If you wish to learn more about such products and other services, please contact us at privacy@orbita.ai.
WHAT DATA DO WE COLLECT?
When Users access or use a Service, Orbita may request and collect certain Personal Data. You may provide Personal Data to Orbita when you post or transmit content (including any text, graphic, audio, video, or other content), create an account, enroll in a program, complete online surveys, forms or questionnaires, or otherwise use or access the Service. The information you provide may include your name, address, phone number, email address, company name, job title, IP address, content of messages transmitted to us via the Service, and other information that personally identifies you or can otherwise be linked to you.
Also, certain web-based Services, including Orbita’s website, may send one or more cookies – small files – to your computer or device. We may be able to uniquely identify your browser with such cookies. We may use session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies provide information to us while your browser is open. Persistent cookies provide information to us after your browser is closed and later re-opened. If your browser is set to disable cookies, some features of the Service may not function.
We may also record certain information sent or made available by your device when you access the Service. Such information may include your location, your device and its specifications, the referring page or service and URL, IP address, browser type and language, operating system specifications, pages viewed, the time you spend on each page, the order in which you view pages, the date and time of your use or access, the exit page or service and URL, application crashes, and similar information.
We may also use technology such as web beacons and clear gifs to track you, and your use of and access to the Service. We may also use this technology in emails we send to you to track whether you opened the email. Please note that some web browsers and devices permit you to broadcast a preference to websites and online services that they “do not track” your online activities. At this time, we do not modify what information we collect or how we use that information based upon whether such a signal is broadcast or received.
HOW WILL WE USE YOUR DATA?
We use collected information, and share collected information with our affiliates, other businesses, suppliers, vendors, licensors, and agents, to operate, maintain, and provide the features and functionality of the Service, including to:
- respond to and process inquiries by you, our customers, and our providers;
- alert Users to new features and functionality, or to products and services offered by us or by third parties;
- provide personalized content and information;
- enable our customers and other third parties to provide you with access to services or products provided by our customers and other third parties;
- monitor the effectiveness of our marketing activity;
- transfer Personal Data between Customers to enhance user experience;
- enforce this Privacy Policy;
- monitor aggregate use of and access to the Service, including potential use of third-party analytics tools or services; and
- for any other purpose, with your consent.
We may also disclose collected information if we believe disclosure is required to comply with applicable laws, or to protect us or the Service.
In the event that we are involved in a merger, acquisition, sale, bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting creditors’ rights generally, or a change of control, there may be a disclosure of your Personal Data to another entity related to such event.
We may share your information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or other lawful enforcement requirements. Please note that you may withdraw your consent to use and/or disclose your Personal Data at any time, subject to certain restrictions prescribed by applicable law. If you do so, we may not be able to provide certain services to you.
For Supporting Customers
Orbita provides Services to its Customers to operate and manage information systems supporting certain business operations. The Orbita Services include digital information systems that collect, store, and manage data on behalf of our Customers and Users.
While Orbita Customers ultimately decide what data will be used within Orbita Services, it may include information about their users, customers, and in some cases, their patients. This information may include medical, health, healthcare, medication, treatment, contact, or other information related to people, groups, conditions, or clinical research.
In addition, Orbita provides consulting services to assist Orbita Customers with their implementation and use of Orbita Services at various stages within their project management process as well as varying levels of assistance. Information may be shared as required by the project and at the discretion and control of the Customers to limit and request any special handling requirements.
For Marketing
Orbita collects and uses information gathered through our Services for marketing purposes to provide further information regarding our services and solutions. As addressed and detailed within this Policy, our processing activities are accurate to the stated purposes and all such information is secured with technical and organizational measures to ensure protection for confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
For Business Operation Use
Orbita collects certain Personal Data for billing and operations in support of its business. Contact information from Customers is used to perform business operations related to proposals, agreements, billing, invoicing, and tax reporting purposes.
HOW DO WE STORE YOUR DATA?
Orbita stores the Personal Data we collect for as long as is necessary for the purpose(s) for which we originally collected it. We may retain certain Personal Data for legitimate business purposes and as required by law.
Personal Data that is no longer needed for the purposes defined in this Privacy Policy is destroyed, or where applicable, stripped of personal identifying data attributes (anonymized).
HOW WE SECURE YOUR DATA?
Orbita has implemented and maintains safeguards to secure Personal Data from misuse, loss, or unauthorized alteration. Additionally, safeguards are also in place to ensure that Orbita suppliers, vendors, contractors, and partners are required to keep any shared information confidential and are not permitted to use it for any other purpose than the performance of services for Orbita.
When necessary, Orbita requires and enforces the use of encryption when storing and transmitting data. Access controls are in place to ensure that restrictive limits are established and maintained with controls for authentication, authorization, and accounting. Access to Personal Data is protected with these controls and Orbita regularly monitors its systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks.
USE OF SUBPROCESSORS
Orbita may retain our affiliates and other third parties (“Subprocessors”) to further process data on your behalf in connection with the provision of the Services. Reasonably necessary steps are taken to ensure that such data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and that no transfer of Personal Data will take place to an Orbita Subprocessor unless there are adequate controls in place.
As appropriate, Orbita will only disclose Personal Data with a Subprocessor provided contractual assurances are in place with at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by this Policy and that they will process Personal Data for limited and specific purposes consistent with any consent provided by the Customer or User.
Orbita’s current list of our Subprocessors is available here.
LEGAL DISCLOSURES
Under certain circumstances, Orbita may be required to disclose Personal Data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g. a court or a government agency).

Rights and choices
The CCPA provides California Users with specific rights regarding their Personal Data. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights. You have the right to require that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Data over the past 12 months (the “Right to Know”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity (see the “How to Contact Us” section below), we will disclose to you:
- The categories of Personal Data we collected about you.
- The categories of sources for the Personal Data we collected about you.
- Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that Personal Data.
- The categories of third parties with whom we share that Personal Data.
- If we sold or disclosed your Personal Data for a business purpose, two lists disclosing the personal categories that each category purchased or obtained.
- The specific pieces of Personal Data we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
You have the right to request that we delete any of your Personal Data that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions (the “Right to Delete”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity (see the “How to Contact Us” section below), we will review your request to see if an exception allowing us to retain the information applies. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:
- complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Data, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our obligations to you;
- detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
- debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
- exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;
- comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code 1546 et. Seq.);
- Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement if you previously provided informed consent;
- enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;
- comply with a legal obligation;
- make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
We will delete or deidentify Personal Data not subject to one of these exceptions from our records and will direct our service providers to take similar action. We do not provide these deletion rights for business-to-business Personal Data. To exercise your rights to know or delete described herein, please submit a request as described in the “How to Contact Us” section below. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a Request to Know or Delete related to your Personal Data. You may only submit a Request to Know twice within a 12-month period. Your Request to Know or Delete must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Data or an authorized representative and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
Response Timing and Format
We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. We endeavor to substantively respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to another 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Data that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Personal Data Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights
If you are age 16 or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your Personal Data at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not sell the Personal Data of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years old. Consumers who opt-in to Personal Data sales may opt-out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to us by contacting Orbita at privacy@orbita.ai. Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize Personal Data sales. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to Personal Data sales at any time by contacting support with your request: (privacy@orbita.ai). You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We will only use Personal Data provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:
- Deny you goods or services.
- Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
- Provide you with a different level or quality of goods or services.
- Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services. However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Data’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
