Information Collection and Use

MedImmune measures the performance of its Web sites in order to determine how we can improve and expand upon the content and services we provide. We have designed our Web sites so that you are not required to provide any personally identifiable information unless you are requesting access to certain options and services. We, along with our third party partners engaged to provide marketing and advertising on our behalf, only collect personally identifiable information that you voluntarily provide to us. You may choose at any time not to provide personally identifiable information, although this may restrict our ability to provide requested services or information.

The following is personally identifiable information that you may volunteer to provide to us and examples of how we use such information:

• Registration: If you complete a registration form on our Web site, including any forms required to submit your personally identifiable information for employment opportunities, we will use the personally identifiable information in such forms to process your request for services and information. Personally identifiable information may also be used if you request to receive certain information via fax or email. We may use this information to send you a welcome email; to verify your username and password; to provide information about Web site updates, special offers; and to provide other responsive information to the data you share with us. Additionally, we may refer to your personally identifiable information to better understand your needs and how we can improve our Web sites.
• Questionnaires and Surveys: Personally identifiable information will be obtained from you if you choose to participate in our interactive services, including questionnaires and web surveys. We may use this personally identifiable information to provide you with information and services for which you have expressed an interest based on your answers. Additionally, we may refer to your personally identifiable information to better understand your needs and how we can improve our Web sites.
• Email Notifications and Newsletters: We may use information obtained from you, such as contact information (name and email address), to complete your submitted request to receive specific company information, such as e-mail notifications, literature requests, and newsletter subscriptions.
• Request to Email Information to a Friend: If you elect to use our referral services and provide information for us to contact a family member or friend, we may use the personally identifiable information obtained from you regarding your family member or friend to send them a one-time email inviting them to visit our Web site. Personally identifiable information provided by you may also be used to inform the recipient of your (the sender's) name. We may store this information for the purpose of sending this email.

We gather certain information about the use of our Web site by our visitors. This information is then compiled and analyzed in a way that does not identify our visitors personally. The information may include the referring Uniform Resource Locator (URL), indicating from where a visitor to our Web site has come, which URLs have been visited on our Web site and in what order, what browser is being used, and what Internet Protocol (IP) address a visitor used to get to our Web site.
