As information that may be of interest to visitors, the site may contain extracts from press articles or opinions stated by experts. Such information solely reflects the opinion of the expert or publication and shall not be construed as Guerbet’s.

Guerbet does not guarantee either the accuracy or completeness of such information, whatsoever it may be, and shall not under any circumstances be held liable if it is inaccurate or incomplete.

Information provided on the Website may include direct or indirect references to Guerbet products not available in your own country or offered under a different name, and which may be subject to various regulations and terms of use. The fact that they are referred to does not mean that Guerbet plans to market them. Ask our local subsidiary or sales partner for any information about product availability in your country.

However, during the consultation of the Guerbet Website, certain user data is collected automatically:

• The user's IP address (this address enables access to the Internet, and is assigned to the user's computer by the internet service provider; the information, which changes based on the user's session, is not personally identifiable);
• The address of the website from which the user is connected directly to the Guerbet website;
• The date and time of the visit of the user on the Guerbet website and the pages visited;
• The operating system of the user’s computer as well as its browser;
• “Cookies” (identifying how the user accesses the web pages, the time at which they do so, and the number of pages visited).

Guerbet thus collects anonymous user data (or anonymous information) on this website, such as the pages that you visit and the searches that you undertake. These data are anonymous, since they will in no event enable personal identification of the user of the website.

We use this anonymous information to help us improve the content of our sites and to obtain overall statistics on your visits. These statistics can be prepared by third parties, the latter being bound by an obligation of confidentiality.
