Data practices

Sterile Gauze Source Privacy Policy

This policy explains how information supplied through the website may be used for independent business sourcing coordination. It applies to inquiry details, business contact information and basic technical records generated when a visitor uses the site. Do not submit patient records, clinical histories or other sensitive health information.

Information we collect

Inquiry forms may collect names, company details, work email, telephone, product specifications, order quantities, destinations, budget preferences and other procurement notes. Standard server records may include IP address, browser type, requested pages and timestamps. Optional controls are combined with the existing requirements message for submission and do not create a supplier rating.

How information is used

We use submitted data to clarify the buyer brief, coordinate possible supplier outreach, compare quotations and respond to the business contact. Relevant requirement details may be shared with potential suppliers or service providers when necessary to handle the inquiry. We do not use a buyer’s submission to claim that a supplier, product or document has been approved.

Storage and benefit state

The browser may store a first-shown timestamp for the sourcing-benefit window and a session flag for a closed ticker. The first timestamp is not reset by opening, closing or refreshing the benefit display and expires after at most seven days. These interface records do not extend eligibility or guarantee a commercial result.

Retention and security

Information is retained as reasonably needed for inquiry coordination, recordkeeping, security and legal obligations. Reasonable safeguards are used, but no online transmission or storage system can be guaranteed secure. Business users should avoid sending secrets that are not needed for an initial quote request.

Your choices

You may decline optional budget and supplier-preference fields. You may also request correction or deletion of contact information where applicable, subject to legal and operational retention needs. Submit a request through the contact page using the business email associated with the inquiry.

Updates

We may revise this policy to reflect service or legal changes. The current version published on this page governs subsequent website use.
