Leapcure, Inc. ("Leapcure") provides services relating to clinical trial awareness and recruitment, specifically utilizing digital marketing strategies to assist in pairing interested and potentially eligible individuals with clinical trials. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how Leapcure handles your personal data provided when you use our websites www.leapcure.com, www.research.leapcure.com, and other websites we operate that link to this Policy (our "Websites") or engage with services that Leapcure offers (the "Services"). This Policy is designed to inform you about what types of personal data we collect when you complete a screening through our Services, how your personal data is handled and with whom it is shared and your rights regarding your personal data.
This Policy does not apply to the processing of your personal data if you are potentially accepted into a clinical trial at a later date. That specific clinical trial will have a separate privacy notice and related informed consent form which would be provided to you at the time of enrollment in that clinical trial.
When you complete a screening through our Services, you may provide us the following personal data:
Third Party sources. We may combine personal data we receive from you directly, including our screening questionnaire, with personal data you explicitly share through other sources, such as:
Automatic user experience data collection. We and our service providers may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with the Services, our communications and our Websites, such as:
We use the following tools for automatic data collection:
We use your personal data for the following purposes:
Contact details and clinical trial preferences. We will collect your contact details (such as name, home address and email address) and clinical trial participation preferences when you submit information to be initially screened for the clinical trial. Examples include, how far you are willing to travel, how you prefer to be contacted, and your previous participation in clinical trials. This personal data will be used to contact you if you meet the requirements for a clinical trial. Processing of your personal data for these purposes is necessary for you to express your interest in the clinical trial through our Services. If you do not qualify for this clinical trial, your contact details and participation preferences will be kept on file to inform you of future clinical trial opportunities. We will use your personal data for these purposes to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, for our legitimate business interests or, if required, your consent.
Health data. We will collect information about your health when you complete an initial screening with our Services, such as your confirmation on whether you have suffered from the studied condition, your current disease stage, prior medical findings and any ongoing treatments. We use this personal data as necessary to assess your eligibility for clinical trials. If you successfully complete the initial screening process through our Services, which means meeting the clinical trial study criteria as a possible patient participant, you may then be connected directly with the clinical trial research team at a study site so they can further evaluate your participation in the clinical trial. This connection includes sharing the screening results, including your health data, with the research team. The research team will assess your eligibility for the clinical trial based on the personal data you have provided to us and your initial screening evaluation through our Services. We will use your personal data for these purposes to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations and/or for our legitimate business interests. We may also create aggregated, de-identified or other anonymous data from this health data, which we will share with the applicable research teams. You may be asked to provide your explicit consent at the time you register for a screening with our Services, which will act as your consent for the sharing of this personal data with Leapcure and, potentially, the research team. To learn more, please see our Consumer Health Privacy Policy.
Providing your personal data is necessary to ensure you can be initially screened for the clinical trial through our Services. If you refuse to provide this data, or do not provide any consent required to process this personal data, we may not be able to conduct a preliminary screening through our Services.
If you are accepted into the clinical trial, the provision of your personal data for the clinical trial sponsor and/or the research team for all purposes connected with the clinical trial will be governed by separate privacy notices that will be provided to you at that time.
User experience data. Collection of your personal data for these purposes is necessary for our legitimate interest in understanding your user experience for support purposes and to provide and improve our Websites and Services.
As part of these activities, we may create aggregated, de-identified or other anonymous data from user experience data we collect. We may use this anonymous data for user experience purposes, such as improving our Websites and screening questionnaire experience and to better tailor experiences to Website users, including to analyze and improve the Services provided, and promote our business.
Marketing and advertising. We may collect and use your contact information for marketing and advertising purposes, including:
Except where consent is required, we undertake such marketing and advertising on the basis of our legitimate business interests. Where we seek your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.
Compliance and protection. To comply with our legal obligations or when it is in our legitimate interests, we may use your personal data to:
To facilitate corporate acquisitions, mergers or transactions. We may use your personal data, when it is in our legitimate business interests, when we do a business deal, or negotiate a business deal, involving the sale or transfer of all or a part of our business or assets. These deals can include any merger, financing, acquisition, or bankruptcy transaction or proceeding.
HIPAA. The information we collect or receive about the patients we recruit for clinical trials may be "Protected Health Information" or "PHI" subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, as amended, including its implementing regulations ("HIPAA"). In such cases, we would handle PHI as a "business associate" under HIPAA, and we would be required to protect such PHI in accordance with HIPAA and our contracts with the clinical trial sites and/or sponsors.
We may share your personal data with:
Service providers. Companies and individuals that provide services on our behalf or help us operate our Services or our business (such as hosting and cloud services, information technology, customer support, email delivery, Website analytics services and consultants).
Business clients. We share your personal data with business clients to help better assist you in finding a clinical trial.
Professional advisors. Professional advisors, such as lawyers, auditors, bankers and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.
Authorities and others. Law enforcement, government authorities, and private parties, as we believe in good faith to be necessary or appropriate for the compliance and protection purposes described above.
Business transferees. Acquirers and other relevant participants in business transactions (or negotiations for such transactions) involving a corporate divestiture, merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization, sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the business or assets of, or equity interests in, Leapcure or our affiliates (including, in connection with a bankruptcy or similar proceedings).
Sponsor. Your personal health and clinical trial interest data may also be shared with the sponsor of the clinical trial (and/or representatives working on the sponsor's behalf, such as data processors) in pseudonymised form for the purpose of sharing updates on clinical trial patient recruitment efforts and asking questions about specific considerations for patients on the clinical trial. Pseudonymised form means that the data that identifies you is replaced with a data subject identification number, which is a number specific to you, to protect your identity.
We store all of the above referenced information collected from individuals in our TLS/SSL secure database that has restricted access to essential individuals and is password protected. When you complete a screening through our Services, all information collected, including notes from calls with individuals to confirm answers to the screening questionnaire, are stored only in the database defined above.
Opt-in to marketing communications. You may opt-in to marketing-related communications by following the opt-in instructions contained in the marketing communications we send you.
Online tracking opt-out. There are a number of ways to limit online tracking, which we have summarized below:
Note that because these opt out mechanisms are specific to the device or browser on which they are exercised, you will need to opt out on every browser and device that you use.
Do Not Track. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send "Do Not Track" signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to "Do Not Track" or similar signals. To find out more about "Do Not Track," please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

We retain personal data for as long as we have to by law, or where there is no legal requirement, we will only store it for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected as described in this Policy. To determine the appropriate period for retaining your personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of personal data, the purposes for which we use personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. This includes all categories of data in the above-referenced items, and any account information, such as your username and password to access completed screening questions.
Our Services may contain links to websites and other online services operated by third parties. In addition, our content may be integrated into web pages or other online services that are not associated with us. These links and integrations are not an endorsement of, or representation that we are affiliated with, any third party. We do not control websites or online services operated by third parties, and we are not responsible for their actions.
We use reasonable organisational, technical and administrative measures designed to protect against unauthorised access, misuse, loss, disclosure, alteration and destruction of personal data. Unfortunately, data transmission over the Internet cannot be guaranteed as completely secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of personal data.
The Services are not intended for use by children under 13 years of age, unless use is previously consented to and governed on behalf of the minor by the legal guardian/parent. If we learn that we have collected personal data through our Services from a child under 13 without the consent of the child's parent or guardian as required by law, we will delete it.
