Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of visitors to the pparxtx.org website (the "Website"). We may from time to time revise this Privacy Policy. We will post any changes here, so be sure to check back periodically.

Collection of Information:

If you decide to fill out an application for prescription assistance using the Website, you may be asked to provide personal information, such as name, address, phone number, birth date, social security number, and other information. In order to determine which prescription programs are available to you, you may also be asked to list which medications you need. Our systems are designed to maintain your application information for a short period of time (usually less than an hour) in order to give you enough time to finish and print your forms.

PhRMA may use your information to: (a) process and respond to your inquiries and for the purposes for which you provided the information, such as to receive email updates; (b) improve the content and navigability of the Website; and (c) enforce our Terms of Use. Unless you request that we maintain your information (e.g., add you to an email distribution list), our systems are designed to delete your personally identifiable information automatically once your session on the Website expires. We do not sell, rent, loan, or lease any personal information collected at our site. We may share your information with the proper authorities in response to a subpoena, legal order or official request, or when we believe you have acted in violation of our Terms of Use.


How we protect information:

Use of Cookies:

We use "cookies" on the Website to support certain functions and to better understand how our visitors use the Website.
