Categories of Third Parties to Whom we Disclose Your Personal Information: We may disclose your personal information to the third parties described in the “Sharing Your Data” section of our Privacy Policy as well as with other third parties as may be described to you at the time we collect your personal information.

Sale or Sharing of Your Personal Information: We do not generally sell or share information as the terms “sell” and “sharing” are traditionally understood. We do not sell or share personal information (including de-identified personal information) to third parties for money. During the past 12 months, we may have engaged in delivering online advertising that was tailored to your interests, but we did not disclose data that would identify you by name, address or phone number. To the extent “sale” or “sharing” under the CCPA/CPRA are interpreted to include advertising technology activities such as those disclosed here and in our Privacy Policy as a “sale” or “sharing,” we will comply with applicable law, including the CCPA/CPRA, as to such activities. As described below, you have the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information. Additionally, you should know that the CCPA/CPRA prohibits third parties to whom we “sell” or “share” personal information from reselling or resharing it unless you have received explicit notice and an opportunity to opt-out of further sales or sharing. We do not sell or share sensitive personal information, nor do we sell or share any personal information about individuals who we know are under sixteen (16) years old.

California Privacy Rights. If you are a California consumer, you have certain rights related to your personal information under the CCPA/CPRA, including:

Right to Know. You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information. Once we receive and verify your request, we will disclose to you, if requested: the categories of personal information we collected about you; the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you; the categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you; our business or commercial purpose for collecting, disclosing, selling or sharing your personal information; the categories of third parties to whom we disclose your personal information; and if we sold, shared or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, three separate lists setting out: sales (identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased); sharing (identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained); and disclosures for a business purpose (identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained).

Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. You have the right to limit the use or disclosure of your sensitive personal information if used to infer characteristics about you. To exercise this right, please contact us using the Your Privacy Choices form. GRAIL may continue using sensitive personal information for certain purposes expressly permitted by the CCPA/CPRA.

Non-Discrimination. Consistent with the CCPA/CPRA, we will not discriminate against you for choosing to exercise any of your CCPA/CPRA rights, including, for example, by denying goods or services to you, charging you different prices or rates, or providing a different level of quality of products or services. However, we may charge a different price or rate or provide a different level or quality of goods or services when that difference is reasonably related to the value provided to us by the data.

Methods for Submitting Requests. There are many ways you can exercise your rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including by:

Completing an online request using our Your Privacy Choices form here;
Sending us an email at privacy@grailbio.com with the phrase “California Privacy Rights” in the subject line;
Sending us a letter at the address provided in the Contact Us section of this Privacy Policy; or
Calling us toll-free at (833) 694‑2553.

Once we have received your request, we will process your request within the time provided by applicable law. If we need more time, we will tell you in writing why and how much longer we need, either by mail or electronically (based on your choice).

Authorized Agents. You may use an authorized agent to submit a consumer rights request. When we verify your agent’s request, we may verify both your and your agent’s identity and request a signed document from you that authorizes your agent to make the request for you. To protect your personal information, we reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit adequate proof that you authorized them to act for you.

Verification. When you exercise your right to know, delete, or correct, we will take steps to verify your identity with a reasonably high degree of certainty before processing your request. We may ask for additional information so that we can verify your identity. If it is necessary to collect additional information, we will use the information only for verification purposes and will delete it as soon as practicable after complying with your request. We will only use the personal information you provide to us in response to this request to verify your identity and to process your request, unless you initially provided the information for another purpose. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Retaining Your Personal Information: We seek to only retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected such information, as set out in this Privacy Policy, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, subject to your rights, in certain circumstances, to have your personal information erased. We may be required by law to hold certain personal information for specific periods. In other cases, we will retain your personal information for an appropriate period after our relationship ends to protect ourselves from legal claims or to administer our business. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

Shine the Light
In addition to the CCPA/CPRA privacy rights described above, California law permits California residents to request certain details about how their information is shared with third parties and, in some cases, affiliates, for those third parties’ and affiliates’ own direct marketing purposes. Under the law, a business must either provide this information or permit California customers to opt in to, or opt out of, this type of sharing. We may from time to time elect to share certain personal information (as defined by the California Shine the Light Act) about you collected by us with third parties or affiliates for those third parties’ or affiliates’ own direct marketing purposes. Californians are entitled to request information relating to our compliance with the California Shine the Light Act and to opt out of such future sharing of your personal information by contacting us at privacy@grailbio.com with the phrase “Do Not Share” in the subject line.

Supplemental State Privacy Notice

Additional Rights Under State Laws

You may have certain rights regarding our processing of your personal information under applicable state law, including, for example if you are a consumer in Colorado, Connecticut, Nevada, Utah or Virginia. This section is intended to comply with these laws by supplementing the information provided elsewhere in the Privacy Policy.

Collection of personal information. GRAIL may collect the personal information described in the What Information We Collect section of our Privacy Notice. Please note that some of this personal information will be considered sensitive under your state’s legal definition which can vary across different states. Any health information we collect is subject to our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices. In the event of a conflict between this Supplemental State Privacy Notice and the HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, the Notice of Privacy Practices will control with respect to your health data.

Use of personal information. We may collect, use, or disclose personal information about US state residents for purposes listed in the Purposes for Which We Will Use your Data section of our Privacy Statement.

Disclosure of personal information. We may disclose your personal information to the categories of service providers and third parties identified in the Sharing your Data section of our Privacy Notice, and in ways that are described in that section.

Your privacy rights. We provide the privacy rights described in the Your Choices section of our Privacy Notice regardless of your location. Your state may afford you additional privacy rights as noted below. To exercise your right, please email us at privacy@grailbio.com or visit our Your Privacy Choices form. We will respond to your verifiable request within the time limit afforded under applicable law.

The right to know whether GRAIL is processing your personal information
The right to receive (“access”) a copy of your personal information
The right to correct inaccurate personal information
The right to request deletion of your personal information
The right to opt out of certain disclosures of your Personal Information (for more information about your right to opt-out, please see below)
The right to appeal GRAIL’s refusal to take action regarding a privacy rights request

Please note that exceptions to these rights may still apply as otherwise described in this Privacy Notice.

Additional opt-out rights

Certain states have the right to opt out of targeted advertising and sales. If you are a resident of one of these states, you can use our cookie preferences tool (click on "Cookie Notice and Choices" in the site footer) to disable ad trackers on our website in order to opt out.
Users in some states may opt out of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. While you may still make this request, GRAIL does not currently use profiling in this manner.
Certain states provide residents a limited right to opt out of the sale of personal information. GRAIL does not sell or share personal information (including de-identified personal information) to third parties for money. We may engage in delivering online advertising that was tailored to your interest, but we do not disclose data that would identify you by name, address, or phone number, nor do we disclose sensitive information like health data for those purposes. To the extent “sale” is interpreted under applicable law to include advertising technology activities described here and elsewhere in our Privacy Policy as a “sale,” we will comply with applicable law with respect to such activities. You can exercise your rights to opt-out by emailing us at privacy@grailbio.com or visiting our Your Privacy Choices form.

These rights will not apply, however, if GRAIL does not collect any personal information about you or if all of the information we collect is exempt from your applicable state’s privacy laws. For example, these state laws do not apply to personal information that is already protected by certain other privacy laws, such as protected health information subject to HIPAA. For information regarding your rights with respect to your protected health information, please visit our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.

Privacy Notice for European Users

GRAIL’s processing of your personal data may be subject to applicable privacy laws in the EEA and the UK, including the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“EU GDPR”), the UK Data Protection Act 2018 (“DPA18”) and the EU GDPR as it forms part of the law of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland (together with the DPA18, the “UK GDPR”).

For the purposes of this privacy notice, “personal data” means any data or information that relates to and can identify a living individual. The data controller of your personal data is GRAIL, Inc., which can be contacted by post at GRAIL Bio UK Ltd. 210 Euston Road, London, NW1 2DA (Attn: Legal Department), by email at privacy@grailbio.com and by telephone at +0-808-303-0070.

Depending on the context in which GRAIL collects and uses your personal data, this Privacy Notice for European Users may apply in addition to, or be superseded by, other privacy notices or policies that govern our processing of your personal data. For example, participants in GRAIL’s clinical research trials will receive a privacy notice or policy that is specific to each trial, whereas if you apply for a position at GRAIL Bio UK Ltd, our Applicant Privacy Notice will explain more about how we process your personal data in that specific context.

Provision of Personal Data. We only process personal data where we have a legal basis for doing so. The legal bases are described in the section of our Privacy Policy titled “Purposes for which we will use your data”. Where we use your personal data to provide our products or services, in relation to your application for employment or to comply with our legal obligations, the provision of this personal data is mandatory. The failure to provide the requested personal data means that we may not be able to provide these products or services or process your application. The provision of all other personal data, such as the details you provide so we can send marketing communications, is optional.

Your Rights. If you are an individual in the EEA or the UK, or GRAIL’s processing of your personal data is otherwise subject to the GDPR or the UK GDPR, you may have certain rights with respect to your personal data. You can exercise these rights at any time by contacting us at privacy@grailbio.com.

Request Access to your Personal Data. You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

Request Portability of your Personal Data. You can ask us to transfer your personal data to another data controller in a machine-readable form. This right will only apply where we process your personal data based on your consent or where the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract between us.
Object to the Processing of your Personal Data. You can object to our processing where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) as our legal basis. You can also object at any time to our use of your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
Withdraw Your Consent. Where we are relying on your consent to process your personal data, you can withdraw consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. However, where we are relying on your consent as the legal basis for processing, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you following the withdrawal of such consent.
You also have the right to complain to an EEA or UK data protection authority in the place you live, work or where you believe a breach of the GDPR or the UK GDPR occurred. However, GRAIL would appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns before you do this, so please contact us in the first instance at privacy@grailbio.com.

If necessary, we will notify any other parties (such as our suppliers or service providers) to which we have transferred your personal data of any changes that we make when you make a request under the GDPR or the UK GDPR. While we communicate to these parties, we are not responsible for the actions they take to answer your request. In some cases, you may also be able to access your personal data held by these third parties and correct, amend or delete it where it is inaccurate.

Your rights under the GDPR and the UK GDPR may be limited, such as where fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person or would infringe the rights of a third party (including our rights), or if you ask us to erase personal data that we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping. We will inform you of relevant exemptions we rely upon when responding to any request you make.

Transferring your Personal Data. When we transfer your personal data outside the EEA and the UK, and to the extent required by the GDPR and the UK GDPR, we rely on appropriate or suitable safeguards to transfer your personal data, including:

Using standard contractual clauses approved by relevant authorities as ensuring adequate safeguards for personal data;
Obtaining your consent to transfer personal data after first informing you about the possible risks of such a transfer;
When the transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract between you and us or if the transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract between us and a third party that is entered into in your interest; and
Where the transfer is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

For further information, including to obtain a copy of the documents used to protect your personal data, please contact us at privacy@grailbio.com.

Retaining your Personal Data. We seek to only retain personal data described in this Privacy Notice and our Privacy Policy for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected such data, as set out in this Privacy Notice and our Privacy Policy, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, subject to your rights, in certain circumstances, to have your personal data erased. We may be required in law to hold certain personal data for specific periods. In other cases, we will retain your personal data for an appropriate period after our relationship ends to protect ourselves from legal claims or to administer our business. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

The Galleri test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older. The Galleri test does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests recommended by a healthcare provider. Galleri is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located. Use of Galleri is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.

Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of medical history, clinical signs and symptoms. A test result of No Cancer Signal Detected does not rule out cancer. A test result of Cancer Signal Detected requires confirmatory diagnostic evaluation by medically established procedures (e.g. imaging) to confirm cancer.

If cancer is not confirmed with further testing, it could mean that cancer is not present or testing was insufficient to detect cancer, including due to the cancer being located in a different part of the body. False-positive (a cancer signal detected when cancer is not present) and false-negative (a cancer signal not detected when cancer is present) test results do occur. Rx only.

The GRAIL clinical laboratory is certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) and accredited by the College of American Pathologists. The Galleri test was developed and its performance characteristics were determined by GRAIL. The Galleri test has not been cleared or approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The GRAIL clinical laboratory is regulated under CLIA to perform high-complexity testing. The Galleri test is intended for clinical purposes.
