In these Terms of Use, “us”, “we” and “our” refers to Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories or its Affiliates (defined below), except as otherwise indicated. “You” and “your” refers to you and the company that you represent, except as otherwise indicated.

The Services do not include the actual analytical, testing or other services ordered by you from us, which are subject to separate standard terms and conditions or, if it exists, a written agreement between you and us. The Site and the Services are provided solely as a convenience to you. Each of our Affiliates is a separate and distinct legal entity that shall solely be responsible for the services that it provides to you, if any, and for its conduct, actions, inactions, liabilities, indemnification or other obligations relating to such services. In no event shall any Affiliate be jointly and severally liable with any other Affiliate in any respect, nor shall any Affiliate have any obligation or liability with respect to services provided by any other Affiliate. In this Agreement “Affiliate” means any entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories.

We reserve the right to refuse access to the Site or use of the Services to anyone or any entity at any time, in our sole discretion. You warrant that you have provided us with current, complete and accurate information, and you agree to update the information to keep the registration information you submitted via the registration form current, complete and accurate. By submitting your completed registration form with us, you are representing to us that you are our client or an Authorized Employee of our client, that you are legally entitled to access the Client Data (as defined in Section 2 below) and this Site and to use the Services. You will be deemed to make these representations and warranties to us each time you access the Site. We will have no responsibility to independently verify any person’s authority to access the Client Data.

We may reject a submitted registration form in our sole discretion for any reason.

We hereby grant you a limited, revocable, nontransferable, nonexclusive license to access the Site and use the Services on the terms stated in this Agreement solely for your company’s internal business use for purposes of accessing and reviewing the status and results of sample submissions and analytical services that have been ordered from us by or on behalf of our client who has granted you authority to access this Site and use the Services on its behalf (the “Client Data”). Without limiting the foregoing or expanding any of your rights hereunder, you agree that you will not disclose, republish, reproduce, or distribute any of the information, data (other than Client Data), materials or other content accessed on or through the Site (the “Content”) or make any use of the Content that would allow a third party to have access to the Content.

7. Site Integrity and Limits on Access. We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to or use of the Site or the Services, and access to and use of the Site and the Services may be subject to interference from numerous factors outside of our reasonable control. You agree not to use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Site, the Services or any of our other computer systems.

You agree that you will not use any robot, spider, other automatic device, or manual process to “screen scrape,” monitor, “mine,” “mirror” or copy the Site or any Content or Client Data.
8. Data Security. The Site uses Secure Sockets Layer encryption (or other reasonable technical security safeguards) in the transmission of sensitive information. We maintain a secured area on the Site for transmission of registration information, test sample information and analytical data and store this data in a private database. Because encryption slows down the response time of Web pages, some areas of the Site are not secured. Nevertheless, we endeavor to ensure that all pages transmitting financial information are encrypted. Please inform us immediately if any such page is not encrypted. Please refer to your browser’s online help for further information on determining whether a specific page you are viewing is encrypted. We utilize reasonable technical security measures such as firewalls, passwords and other mechanisms on our computer systems housing all registration and financial data.

The Site, the Content and the Services are proprietary to us and our licensors and are protected by applicable patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret and other intellectual property right laws, and we and our licensors retain sole ownership thereof.

You will abide by any and all additional intellectual property notices, information, or restrictions contained in any Content on the Site or through the Services.
