MEDIDATA PRIVACY POLICY



This “Privacy Policy” describes the privacy practices of Medidata Solutions,
Inc. and our subsidiaries and affiliates (including our US subsidiary
Intelemage, LLC; together, collectively, “Medidata”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). This
Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose and otherwise process
personal information in connection with our websites, mobile apps, and other
services, and explains the rights and choices available to individuals with
respect to their information. For convenience, our websites and mobile apps are
collectively referred to as the “Sites,” and, together with our other services,
collectively referred to as the “Services.” This Privacy Policy governs any of
the Services on which the Privacy Policy is posted.

Individuals located in the European Union should be sure to read the important
information provided here.

Individuals located in California should be sure to read the important
information provided here.


SUMMARY OF OUR PRIVACY PRACTICES

 * The Types of Information We Collect About You: We collect information that
   you provide to us, such as your contact details, as well as information that
   is automatically collected by our Sites, such as your IP address and
   information collected by our use of Cookies.
 * Purposes of Processing Your Information: We process information about you in
   order to provide our Sites and Services; to communicate with you; to comply
   with law and prevent fraud; and for other reasons with your consent. We may
   also anonymize your data – which means the data can no longer be used to
   identify you – in order to perform analytics to learn how to better provide
   our Sites and Services.
 * Your Rights and Choices: Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have legal
   rights associated with our processing of your data, including rights to
   access, correct, delete, transfer, or object to the processing of your data.
   Regardless of where you live, we will honor your request to opt out of being
   contacted by us for marketing reasons.
 * How to Contact Us: Medidata is the controller of your information when it is
   processed in the context of our Sites and Services. Our Data Protection
   Officer may be contacted by emailing dataprivacy@medidata.com. However,
   please note that Medidata’s customers are the controllers of your data when
   it is processed in Medidata’s platform, applications, and related services.
   For example, if you are a patient in a clinical trial, or an investigator who
   logs into our applications, your data controller is the Sponsor of that trial
   and/or the participating healthcare provider.


MEDIDATA’S PLATFORM, APPLICATIONS, AND CUSTOMER DATA

As part of Medidata’s platform, applications and related services, our
customer’s employees and authorized users may enter information from or about
their authorized users, employees, and clinical trial subjects (collectively,
“Customer Data”), into our servers.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to Customer Data, and we are not responsible
for our customers’ handling of Customer Data. Our customers have their own
policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of your personal
information. Our use of Customer Data is subject to the written agreement for
services between Medidata and the customer that in no way involves the sale of
your data. Medidata’s responsibility under that agreement – that we take very
seriously – is the obligation to keep Customer Data safe and secure. To learn
about how a particular customer handles your personal information, we encourage
you to read that customer’s privacy statement or contact that customer.

Medidata has no control or ownership of Customer Data. Please direct any
questions regarding Customer Data to the customer for which you work or which
collected your information using a Medidata platform or application.


PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect personal information about you in the following ways:


INFORMATION YOU GIVE US

Personal information that you may provide through the Services or otherwise
communicate with us includes:

 * Personal and Business Contact information, such as your first name, last
   name, postal address, email address, telephone number, job title, and
   employer name;
 * Profile information, such as your username and password, industry, interests
   and preferences; 
 * Feedback and correspondence, such as information you provide in your
   responses to surveys, when you participate in market research activities,
   report a problem with the Sites, receive customer support or otherwise
   correspond with us;
 * Transaction information, such details about any purchases you make through
   the Sites, event registrations you make through the Sites, and billing
   details;
 * Usage information, such as information about how you use the Sites and
   interact with us;
 * Marketing information, such as your preferences for receiving marketing
   communications and details about how you engage with them.

We may combine other publicly available information, such as information related
to the organization for which you work, with the personal information that you
provide to us through our Sites or Services.


INFORMATION AUTOMATICALLY COLLECTED

We may collect an IP address from visitors to our Sites. We use IP addresses to
help diagnose problems with our server(s), to administer the Sites, and to
monitor activities on and interactions with our Sites.

We may also automatically log information about you and your computer or mobile
device when you access our Sites. For example, we may log your computer or
mobile device operating system name and version, manufacturer and model, browser
type, browser language, screen resolution, the website you visited before
browsing to our Sites, pages you viewed, how long you spent on a page, access
times and information about your use of and actions on our Sites. We collect

or you opt into marketing communications.


TO CREATE ANONYMOUS DATA FOR ANALYTICS

We may create anonymous data from your personal information and other
individuals whose personal information we collect. We make personal information

unethical or illegal activity.

 * Affiliates. We may disclose your personal information to our subsidiaries and
   corporate affiliates for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy;
 * Service Providers. We may employ third party companies and individuals to
   administer and provide the Services on our behalf (such as training, customer
   support, hosting, email delivery and database management services). These
   third parties may use your information only as directed by Medidata and in a
   manner consistent with this Privacy Policy, and are prohibited from using or
   disclosing your information for any other purpose;
 * Professional advisors. We may disclose your personal information to
   professional advisors, such as lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers, where
   necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us;

   disclose information about you to government or law enforcement officials or
   private parties as required by law, and disclose and use such information as

   requests from government authorities; (b) enforce the terms and conditions
   that govern our Services; (d) protect our rights, privacy, safety or
   property, and/or that of you or others; and (e) protect, investigate and
   deter against fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal
   activity;
 * Business Transfers. Medidata may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or
   all of its business or assets, including your personal information, in
   connection with a business deal (or potential business deal) such as a
   merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets or in
   the event of bankruptcy, in which case we will make reasonable efforts to
   require the recipient to honor this Privacy Policy.

do not provide this information when requested (or you later ask to delete it),
we may not be able to provide you with the Services and may need to close your

COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES


WHAT ARE COOKIES?

We may collect information using “cookies.” Cookies are small data files stored
on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website. We may use
both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and
persistent cookies (which stay on your computer or mobile device until you
delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on
our Site.

We use two broad categories of cookies: (1) first party cookies, served directly
by us to your computer or mobile device, which we use to recognize your computer
or mobile device when it revisits our Site; and (2) third party cookies, which
are served by service providers on our Site, and can be used by such service
providers to recognise your computer or mobile device when it visits other
websites.


COOKIES WE USE

Our Site uses the following types of cookies for the purposes set out below:

 * Essential Cookies. These cookies are essential to provide you with services
   available through our Site and to enable you to use some of its features.
   Without these cookies, the services that you have asked for cannot be
   provided, and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services.
   These are primarily used by our employees and contractors.
 * Functionality Cookies. These cookies allow our Site to remember choices you
   make when you use our Site. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you
   with a more personal experience and to avoid you having to re-select your
   preferences or re-enter information every time you visit our Site.
 * Analytics and Performance Cookies. These cookies are used to collect
   information about traffic to our Site and how users use our Site. The
   information gathered may include the number of visitors to our Site, the
   websites that referred them to our Site, the pages they visited on our Site,
   what time of day and duration they visited our Site, whether they have
   visited our Site before, and other similar information. We use this
   information to help operate our Site more efficiently, to gather broad
   demographic information and to monitor the level of activity on our Site. We
   primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses its
   own cookies. It is only used to improve how our Site works. You can find out
   more information about Google Analytics cookies here and about how Google
   protects your data here. You can prevent the use of Google Analytics relating
   to your use of our Site by downloading and installing the browser plugin
   available here.
 * Targeted and Advertising Cookies. These cookies track your browsing habits to
   enable us to show advertising on a third party site which is more likely to
   be of interest to you. These cookies use information about your browsing
   history to group you with other users who have similar interests. You can
   disable certain cookies which remember your browsing habits and target
   advertising at you by visiting this site. If you choose to remove targeted or
   advertising cookies, you will still see advertisements but they may not be
   relevant to you. Even if you do choose to remove cookies by the companies
   listed at the above link, not all companies that serve online behavioural
   advertising are included in this list, and so you may still receive some
   cookies and tailored advertisements from companies that are not listed.


DISABLING COOKIES

You can typically remove or reject cookies via your browser settings. In order
to do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located
within the “settings,” “help” “tools” or “edit” facility). Many browsers are set
to accept cookies until you change your settings.

Further information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been
set on your computer or mobile device and how to manage and delete them,
visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

If you do not accept our cookies, you may experience some inconvenience in your
use of our Site. For example, we may not be able to recognize your computer or
mobile device and you may need to log in every time you visit our Site.


FLASH TECHNOLOGY

We may use supporting technologies for our Sites that use Flash cookies (which
are also known as Flash Local Shared Object (“LSOs”)) on our Site to collect and
store information about your use of our Site. Unlike other cookies, Flash
cookies cannot be removed or rejected via your browser settings. If you do not
want Flash cookies stored on your computer or mobile device, you can adjust the
settings of your Flash player to block Flash LSO storage using the tools
contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel at this website. You can also
control Flash LSOs by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel at this
website and following the instructions. Please note that setting the Flash
Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash LSOs may reduce or impede the
functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash
applications used in connection with our Site.


ON-SITE TRACKING

We may also use tracking tags (which are also known as web beacons) on our Site
to track the actions of users while on our Site. Unlike cookies, which are
stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website,
tracking tags are embedded on webpages. Tags compile statistics about usage of
the Site, so that we can manage our content more effectively. The information we
collect using tracking tags is not linked to our users’ personal data.


DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS

Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the
online services that you visit. We currently do not currently respond to do not
track signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please
visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.


SECURITY

The security of your personal information is important to us. We take a number
of organizational, technical and physical measures designed to protect the
personal information we collect, both during transmission and once we receive
it. However, no security safeguards are 100% secure and we cannot guarantee the
security of your information.


INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER 

Medidata is headquartered in the United States and has affiliates and service
providers in other countries, and your personal information may be transferred
to the United States or other locations outside of your state, province, country
or other governmental jurisdiction where privacy laws may not be as protective
as those in your jurisdiction.

European Union users should read the important information provided here about
the transfer of personal information outside of the European Economic Area.


OTHER SITES AND SERVICES

The Sites may contain links to other websites and services. These links are not
an endorsement, authorization or representation that we are affiliated with that
third party. We do not exercise control over third party websites or services,
and are not responsible for their actions. Other websites and services follow
different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the personal information you
submit to them. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of the other
websites you visit and services you use.


USER GENERATED CONTENT

We may make available on our Sites, or link to, features that allow you to share
information online (e.g., on message boards, in chat areas, in file uploads,
through events, etc.). Please be aware that whenever you voluntarily disclose
personal information online, that information becomes public and can be
collected and used by others. We have no control over, and take no
responsibility for, the use, storage or dissemination of such publicly-disclosed
personal information. By posting personal information online in public forums,
you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties.


CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. We encourage you
to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy
practices. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy you will be
notified via the contact information you have provided to us or another manner
that we believe reasonably likely to reach you. This may include posting a
specific announcement on our Sites.

Any modifications to this Privacy Policy will be effective upon our posting of
the new terms and/or upon implementation of the new changes in the Service (or
as otherwise indicated at the time of posting). In all cases, your continued use
of the Sites and Services after the posting of any modified Privacy Policy
indicates your acceptance of the terms of the modified Privacy Policy.
