Definition of “Personal Information”
As used in this Privacy Policy, “personal information” means information that identifies You and which is submitted to and/or collected by these Sites and maintained by Optinose in an accessible form.
Information You Provide
We will only collect personal information when it is voluntarily submitted to us via these Sites through a form or email. For example, some areas of these Sites ask You to submit personal information in order for You to benefit from the specified features or to participate in a particular activity. On the registration screen for such feature or activity, we clearly label which information is required for registration or participation, and which information is optional and may be given at Your discretion. You may always refuse to provide information to us, but this may lead to our inability to provide You with certain information, products or services or for You to participate in certain activities.
Passive Information Collection
As You navigate through these Sites, we may passively collect (that is, gather without Your actively providing the information) certain non-personal information using various technologies and means, such as Internet protocol addresses, cookies, Internet tags, web beacons and navigational data collection. For example, Your Internet browser automatically transmits to these Sites some of this unidentifiable information, such as the URL of the website You just came from, the Internet Protocol (IP) address and the browser version Your computer is currently using. These Sites may also collect unidentifiable information from Your computer through cookies, Internet tags, web beacons or other means. Cookies are text files we place in Your computer’s browser to store Your preferences.

In some instances, we may remove personal identifiers from data and maintain it as non-personal information. We also may combine non-personal information with personal information. If we do combine any non-personal information with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information under this Privacy Policy as long as it is so combined.
We may disclose personal information You provide through these Sites to other Optinose affiliates that agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We also may disclose personal information You provide through these Sites to third parties that are not Optinose affiliates, but only:

- to a purchaser or successor entity in connection with the sale, merger, assignment, or other transfer of Optinose or any of its affiliates, or line of business or product of Optinose or any of its affiliates, or sale of substantially all of the assets of Optinose or any of its affiliates; or
- to respond to law enforcement requests or where we determine in good faith that disclosure is required by applicable laws, court orders or government regulations; or
- to enforce our Terms of Use; to protect our operations; to protect the rights, privacy, safety or property of Optinose, You or others; or to permit us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain; or
