Welcome!  Thank you for visiting a website owned and operated by Avanos Medical,
Inc. (together with its subsidiaries and affiliated companies, “Avanos,” “we,”

health and healthcare by preventing infection, eliminating pain, and speeding
recovery.  We recognize the importance of protecting your personal information
and are committed to processing it responsibly and in compliance with applicable
data protection laws.

This Privacy Notice applies to personal information that we obtain or collect
from or about individuals who use our website www.AvanosMedical.com and our
other related websites, tools, applications or mobile apps (altogether, the
“Site”).  We may provide additional or more specific information on the
collection, use, or other processing of personal information obtained through
use of a particular website or related to a specific product or service.  This
Privacy Notice is designed to inform you about how we collect, use, share, and
otherwise process your personal information, and the choices you can make about
collection, use, and sharing of information you affirmatively provide to us, or
that we passively collect, when you use the Site.

When you access or use the Site, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy
Notice and understand its contents.  Your use of the Site is subject to this
Privacy Notice and any applicable Terms and Conditions.

Personal Information Avanos Collects

Avanos collects personal information about you in a variety of ways.  The
following are examples of the types of personal information that may be
collected.  The specific kinds of personal information collected will depend on
the Site you use:

 * Registration and Account Information:
   * You can browse the Site without providing us with direct identifiers like
     your name, email address, phone number, mobile telephone number, or mailing
     address.
   * To register for an account or establish a profile on the Site, you will
     need to give us personal information such as your:
     * Contact information (such as name, email address, mailing address, and
       phone number)

 * * * Payment information (including payment card numbers, billing address, and
       bank account information), where relevant
     * Account log-in credentials (e.g., username and password).

 * Information to Respond to Your Requests: You may also give us your personal
   information to sign up for our newsletters and other communications.  You can
   exercise certain choices concerning how and when you will receive such
   newsletters and other communications by following instructions available on
   the Site.
 * Information You Post on the Site: You may provide us with information
   regarding your opinions and reviews of products.
 * Information from Other Sources: The information we collect may be combined
   with information from outside records (e.g., demographic information,
   navigation information, marketing information, and/or additional contact
   information) that we have acquired in accordance with the law.
 * Mobile Information: We may collect additional information from you if you
   access the Site through a mobile device (e.g., your unique device identifier,
   your device’s operating system, or the mobile carrier for your phone,
   location or GPS/geo-location).

 

 * Geolocation Information: When you visit the Site, we may collect geo-location
   information to provide certain location-based services that you request

   information sent to us by your computer, mobile device, or other access
   device that tells us how you are using the Site (“usage information”).  We
   use tracking technologies—such as cookies (including cookies stored in
   HTML-5), web beacons/GIFs, embedded scripts, e-tags/cache browsers—to collect
   usage information, purchase history, and product use history.  We may also
   collect password information from you when you log in, as well as computer
   and connection information.  During some of your visits to the Site, we may
   use software tools to measure and collect session information, including page
   response times, download errors, time spent on certain pages, and page
   interaction information.  For more information about the use of cookies and
   similar technologies on the Site, please review our Cookies and Tracking
   Technologies Policy.

 

 * Health and Medical Information (ON-Q* TRAC): Certain registration information
   and special categories of personal data, including health information, will
   be collected about patients who use our ON-Q* TRAC System.  Similarly,
   certain personal information will be collected about healthcare providers who
   register to use our ON-Q* TRAC System.  We may de-identify data collected
   through ON-Q* TRAC, consistent with applicable laws.   If a patient or
   healthcare provider deactivates his or her account, or no longer has a
   business relationship with us, we may nevertheless retain de-identified
   health and medical information related to that patient.  We may use and share
   such de-identified information without restriction.

will be accessed or used by children under the age of 13.  We do not knowingly

When Do We Share Personal Information?

We respect the importance of privacy.  We do not sell your personal information
to marketing companies outside of Avanos, unless we have your consent. 
Generally, we may share your information, in order to facilitate the provision
of our products, services, and communications with customers, including:

 * The Avanos Corporate Family:  We may share the information we collect about
   you with the Avanos corporate family and their and our affiliates and

   disclosed to: (i) provide joint content and our services (e.g., registration,
   transactions, analytics and customer support); (ii) help detect and prevent
   potentially illegal acts, violations of our policies, fraud and/or data

 * Legal and Law Enforcement:  We may share personal information with law
   enforcement, governmental agencies, or authorized third-parties, in response
   to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal
   activity or any other activity that may expose us, you, or any other Avanos
   user to legal liability.  In this regard, we may share your information with
   third parties in response to a subpoena, other legal process and/or as

   complaints and anything else we may deem relevant to the investigation.
 * Change of Control or Reorganization:  If we decide to sell, buy, merge or

   practice to seek appropriate protection for personal information in these
   types of transactions.
 * Companies in the Mobile App Industry:  If you access the Site through a
   mobile device, we may also share your information with carriers, operating
   systems, and platforms.
 * Other Entities with Your Consent:  We will share personal information with

   using a specific service).  On the Site, you may have opportunities to
   express interest in or register for other services.  If you do, we will
   provide information about you to those third parties, or parties working on
   their behalf, to implement your request.

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information

If the processing of your personal information is subject to the EU General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR), whenever we use or share personal information, we
ensure that we have identified a legal basis under which such processing may
occur.  Where we reference that we use your personal information in connection
with a request, order, transaction, or agreement (or preparing for the same), or
to provide you with services that you requested (such as use of the Site), we do
this because it is necessary for the performance of an agreement with you.

Further, to the extent GDPR is implicated, where we reference that we use
personal information in relation to improvement, development, or marketing of
our products or services, for reasons of safety and security, or to satisfy
regulatory requirements, other than in connection with your agreement or
request, we do this on the basis of our (or a third party’s) legitimate
interests or with your consent, as appropriate.

International Data Transfers

Avanos is headquartered in the United States, and we have operations, entities,
and service providers in the United States and throughout the world.  Some
countries have implemented transfer restrictions for personal information, in
connection with which Avanos takes various measures, including the Standard
Contractual Clauses authorized under the EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC.

The personal information that we collect pursuant to this Privacy Notice may be
transferred to countries other than your own country for storage or processing,
and these countries may offer different levels of privacy protection than apply
in your own country.

Avanos will retain  personal information collected pursuant to this Privacy
Notice for as long is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it is
processed (as outlined in this Privacy Notice).  We will also retain  personal
information collected pursuant to this Privacy Notice in order to comply with

defend against legal claims in the countries where we do business.

Notice to California Residents:

 * Requests for Listing of Certain Disclosures.  Residents of the State of
   California may request a list of all third parties to which the Site has
   disclosed certain personal information (as defined by California law) during
   the preceding year for those third-parties’ direct marketing purposes.  If
   you are a California resident and want such a list, please contact us at
   dataprotection@avanos.com.  For all requests, you must put the statement
   “Your California Privacy Rights” in the body of your request, as well as your

 * How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals for California Residents:  California
   Business & Professions Code Section 22575(b) (as amended effective January 1,
   2014) provides that California residents are entitled to know how Avanos
   responds to “Do Not Track” browser settings.  Avanos does not currently take
   actions to respond to Do Not Track signals because a uniform technological
   standard has not yet been developed.  We continue to review new technologies
   and may adopt a standard once one is created.
