D. How We Share Your Information:
We do not sell, rent or loan your personal information to any non-affiliated third parties, except as described in this Policy. We will only share your information with companies, organizations, and individuals outside of Orion Pharmacy as described below:
When We Work With Service Providers
We may share your information with affiliated and unaffiliated companies that perform tasks on our behalf related to our business. Such tasks include analyzing site usage data, customer service, electronic and postal mail service, and social and other media services. Third-party service providers only receive your information as necessary to perform their role, and we instruct them not to use your information for any other purposes.
We may work with other companies who place cookies, tags, and web beacons on our websites. These companies help operate our websites and provide you with additional products and services.
We may also use third-party advertising networks to serve advertisements on our behalf. The cookies received with the banner advertisements served by these networks may be used to collect and build behavioural profiles by these companies to deliver targeted advertisements on our website and unaffiliated websites.
When We Work With Third-Party Partners
We may work with other companies who operate their own websites or mobile applications, to allow them to offer Orion Pharmacy customers the ability to connect to Orion Pharmacy services. These services give you more options for ways to use Orion Pharmacy services from websites or apps that are not owned or operated by Orion Pharmacy.
When Sharing is Required by Law or Helps Us Protect Our Interests
We will use and disclose your information as necessary or appropriate under applicable law, to comply with legal process, to respond to such requests from public and government authorities, to enforce our terms and conditions, including investigations of potential violations, to detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, to protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and to allow us to pursue available remedies to limit the damages that we may sustain. In matters involving claims of personal or public safety or in litigation where the data is pertinent, we may use or disclose personal information without your consent or court process.
When We Work On Business Transactions
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores or assets, or as part of a merger, acquisition, sale of company assets, in connection with the evaluation of and entry into such transactions, or in the course of providing transition of services to another provider. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Additionally, in the unlikely event that Orion Pharmacy or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will, of course, be one of the transferred assets as permissible under law.
Non-identifiable or Aggregate Information with Third Parties
We may share non-identifiable or aggregate information with third parties for lawful purposes.

Online Tracking and Interest-Based Advertisements
Orion Pharmacy engages third party advertisers to provide interest-based advertising on our website, as well as other third-party sites in order to display advertising that is relevant to you. These third parties may collect information about your use of our services over time and that information may be combined with information collected on different websites and online services.
These third-party advertisers may be participants in the Network Advertising Initiative and/or the Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioural Advertising, which allows users to opt-out of ad targeting from participating companies.Please Note: When you “opt-out” of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from Orion Pharmacy. It means that the online ads that you do see will not be tailored for you based on your particular interests. We may still collect information about you for any purpose permitted under the Policy, including for analytics and fraud prevention.
Our “Do Not Track” Policy
Orion Pharmacy respects enhanced user privacy controls. We support the development and implementation of a standard “do not track” browser feature, which signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Please note that at this time store.OrionPharmacy.co.ke does not interpret or respond to “do not track” signals. However, you may set your Web browser to not accept new cookies or web beacons, be notified when you receive a new cookie or disable cookies altogether. Please note that by disabling these features, your experience on the online store may not be as smooth and you will not be able to take full advantage of our website’s features. Please see the Help section of your browser for instructions on managing security preferences.
