Website Privacy Policy

The Site is an informational website about Catenics and its collaborative sales platform for business-to-business use by licensed beverage distributors (the "Platform"). The Site does not offer subscriptions, user accounts, or log-in access to the Platform.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the Platform or to data processed through the Platform on behalf of our customers. Data processed through the Platform is governed by the separate subscription or license agreement between Catenics and the applicable customer (a "Platform Agreement"), together with any data-protection terms or Platform-specific privacy notice referenced in it. If you are a current or prospective Platform customer, please refer to your Platform Agreement for information about how Platform data is handled.

2.1  Information you provide to us. We collect information you choose to provide when you complete a contact or demonstration request form, subscribe to updates, register for a webinar or event, or otherwise
communicate with us. This information may include your name, job title, company name, business email
address, telephone number, business address, the states or territories in which your company operates, the
type of license your company holds, information about your business needs, and the content of your
communications with us. You can choose not to provide certain information, but we may then be unable to
respond to your request. Please do not submit sensitive personal information (such as government
identification numbers or financial account information) through the Site.

2.2  Information collected automatically. Whenever you interact with the Site, certain information is
automatically received and stored, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, referring and exit pages, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked, the date and time of your visit, and approximate location derived from your IP address. We collect this information through cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, server logs, and similar technologies (see Section 5). If you receive email from us, we may also receive confirmation when you open the email or click a link in it.

2.3  Information from other sources. We may receive information about you and your company from other
sources, such as publicly available sources (including federal and state alcoholic beverage license databases and business directories), business contact data providers, industry event organizers, our affiliates, business partners, and referrals from customers or industry contacts. We may combine this information with information we collect through the Site.

We use the information we collect to:

• respond to your inquiries and requests, schedule and deliver demonstrations, and provide information about Catenics and the Platform;
• evaluate whether your company may be eligible to subscribe to the Platform, including verifying licensing status;
• send you business communications, including newsletters, product updates, event invitations, and other marketing about Catenics and the Platform, subject to your right to opt out (see Section 6);
• operate, maintain, analyze, and improve the Site, and understand how visitors use it;
• protect the security and integrity of the Site, detect and prevent fraud and misuse, and protect the rights, property, and safety of Catenics and others;
• comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal process, and enforce our Website Terms of Service; and carry out other purposes disclosed to you at the time we collect your information or with your consent.

We may also create aggregated or de-identified information that does not reasonably identify you and use it for any lawful purpose.

We are not in the business of selling personal information to others. We share personal information only as described below:

• Affiliates. With companies controlled by or under common control with IntelliDib, Inc., the parent company of Catenics, that are either subject to this Privacy Policy or follow practices at least as protective as those described in it.

• Service providers. With companies and individuals that perform functions on our behalf, such as website hosting, analytics, customer relationship management, email delivery, scheduling, marketing assistance, IT and security services, and professional advisors. They have access to the personal information needed to perform their functions but may not use it for other purposes.

• Business transfers. As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses, subsidiaries, or business units, or undergo a merger, financing, reorganization, or similar transaction. In such transactions, personal information generally is one of the transferred business assets, but it remains subject to the commitments made in this Privacy Policy unless you consent otherwise.

• Legal requirements and protection. When we believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with law, regulation, or legal process; to respond to lawful requests from public authorities; to enforce our Website Terms of Service or other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Catenics, our customers, or others, including for fraud protection.

• With your consent.  In other cases, we will notify you when information about you may be shared with third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share it.

Cookies are small data files placed on your device that allow a website to recognize your browser. We and our service providers use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use the Site, and measure the effectiveness of our communications. We may use third-party analytics services that use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your use of the Site and other websites over time.

Most browsers allow you to disable or reject cookies, or to be notified when new cookies are set; refer to your browser's Help menu or settings. Because the Site does not require you to log in, disabling cookies will generally not prevent you from viewing the Site, although some features may not function as intended. Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting; the Site does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. Where required by applicable law, we will treat a recognized opt-out preference signal, such as Global Privacy Control, as a request to opt out of the applicable processing for that browser.

• Marketing emails. You may opt out of marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us at privacy@catenics.com. Even if you opt out, we may still send you non-promotional messages, such as responses to your inquiries.

• Text messages. We will not send you marketing text messages unless you have provided express consent. You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP.

• Cookies. You have choices regarding cookies as described in Section 5.

• Providing information. You can always choose not to provide information, but this may limit our ability to respond to your requests.

• Updating information. You may contact us to update or correct the information you have provided. When you update information, we may keep a copy of the prior version for our records.

Depending on where you reside, and subject to applicable exceptions and thresholds, you may have rights under state privacy laws with respect to your personal information, which may include the right to: (a) know about and access the personal information we hold about you; (b) correct inaccurate personal information; (c) delete personal information; (d) obtain a portable copy of your personal information; and (e) opt out of the sale of personal information, targeted advertising, or certain profiling. Some state laws exempt or treat differently personal information collected in a business-to-business context, and we will respond to requests as required by applicable law.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@catenics.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding, and we may accept requests from an authorized agent where permitted by law, subject to verification. If we deny your request, you may appeal by replying to our response. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including for the duration of any existing or prospective business relationship, and as needed to comply with legal, accounting, and reporting obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When personal information is no longer needed, we delete it or de-identify it.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information, including encryption in transit (such as TLS/SSL) for information submitted through the Site's forms. The Site does not collect payment card or bank account information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please use care when sending information to us by email.

Catenics serves businesses in the beverage industry, and the Site is intended solely for business users who are at least 21 years of age. The Site is not directed to anyone under 21, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 21, including children under 13. If you are under 21, do not use the Site. If we learn that we have collected personal information from someone under 21, we will delete it. If you believe we have done so, please contact us.

The Site may include links to third-party websites, social media platforms, and services. The information practices of those third parties are governed by their own privacy policies, not this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third party before providing them with information.

Catenics is based in the United States, and the Site is intended for visitors located in the United States. Information we collect is processed and stored in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction. If you access the Site from outside the United States, you understand that your information will be transferred to, processed, and stored in the United States.

Your use of the Site is also subject to our Website Terms of Service. The Platform is offered solely to properly licensed beverage distributors that satisfy Catenics' eligibility requirements and enter into a Platform Agreement. Catenics reserves the right to decline to provide the Platform to anyone for any reason or no reason.

Our business may change, and this Privacy Policy may change as well. We will post any changes on this page and update the "Last Updated" date above. If we make material changes, we will provide notice on the Site and, where we have your email address and it is appropriate, by email. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you acknowledge the updated Privacy Policy. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Policy applies to all personal information we hold about you in connection with the Site.

If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please contact us at privacy@catenics.com or by mail at: Catenics, LLC, Attn: Privacy 5668 ½ La Jolla Blvd, La Jolla, CA 92037.
