Privacy & Data Policy

Version 1.0, Effective August 2026. Aether Laboratories respects the privacy of every researcher, institution, and visitor who reaches this site.

01

Information We Collect

We collect only what is necessary to fulfill your order, communicate with you, and keep this site running well.

Provided Directly

Full name, email address, and phone number.
Shipping address and billing address, if different.
Order details: the compounds you purchase, quantities, and totals.

Collected Automatically

Approximate location, derived from IP address.
Browser type, device type, operating system, and screen size.
Pages visited, links clicked, time on page, and scroll depth.
The site that referred you to us: a search engine, a social platform, an ad.

What We Never Store

We do not store full card numbers, bank account credentials, or cryptocurrency wallet keys. Every payment is processed by a PCI‑compliant third‑party processor; we receive only a transaction confirmation and the last four digits of the card, kept for receipts and dispute resolution.

02

How We Use Your Information

Process and ship your order.
Send order confirmations, shipping updates, and delivery tracking.
Respond to support and documentation requests.
Detect, prevent, and investigate fraud, chargebacks, or misuse.
Meet our legal, accounting, and tax obligations.
Improve site performance and product offerings, in aggregate.
Send marketing about new compounds or batches, only if you’ve opted in, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

No Data Sales, Ever

We do not sell your personal information, and we never will. We do not share your name, email, or shipping details with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

03

Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember your cart, keep you signed in, measure how the site performs, and serve relevant advertising.

Essential cookies: required for cart, checkout, and account login.
Google Analytics: aggregate, anonymized traffic and performance data.
Microsoft Clarity: anonymized session replay and heatmaps; never captures passwords or card numbers.
Google Ads & Meta Ads: measure ad performance and show relevant ads on those platforms.

We honor browser Do Not Track signals where technically supported. You can opt out of advertising-related tracking directly: Google Analytics opt‑out, Google Ads settings, or Meta ad preferences. Blocking all cookies in your browser may break parts of the site that depend on them.

04

Third‑Party Service Providers

We share only the minimum necessary information with vendors who help us operate. Each is bound by their own privacy obligations and may only use your information to provide services to us.

Payment processors: receive billing details to process the charge; they do not share your full card number with us.
Shipping carriers: receive your address and order number to deliver the package.
Email & SMS providers: send order confirmations, tracking updates, and support replies.
Hosting & infrastructure providers: host the website and its data.
Analytics & advertising partners: as listed in Section 03.

We may also disclose information when required by law (a court order, subpoena, or regulator request) or to protect our legal rights, our customers, or the public.

05

How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain customer data for as long as your account is active or until you request deletion, whichever comes first. Certain records are kept longer where legally required, such as tax records, fraud investigations, or open disputes.

Active marketing data is removed immediately upon request.
Order history is anonymized once any tax or legal retention period has lapsed.
Backups are overwritten on our normal rotation schedule, typically within 90 days.

06

Your Rights

Regardless of where you live, you can access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you (subject to the legal retention exceptions above), opt out of marketing email via the unsubscribe link in any message, and opt out of advertising trackers using the tools listed in Section 03.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you also have rights under the GDPR, including data portability and the right to object to or restrict processing. If you are a California resident, you have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know what categories of personal information we’ve collected, the right to delete it, and the right to opt out of any “sale” or “sharing” of personal information, which, again, we do not do.

To exercise any of these rights, email support@aether-laboratories.com from the address associated with your order. We respond within 30 days.

07

Data Security

We protect your information with industry-standard safeguards: TLS/SSL encryption in transit, encrypted storage of order records, role-based access controls across our team, and PCI-compliant payment terminals. No system is completely secure, but we work continuously to reduce risk.

In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify affected customers without undue delay and in accordance with applicable law, along with the steps we’re taking to contain it.

08

Children’s Privacy

This website and its products are intended for adult researchers and laboratory professionals. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we discover we have collected information from a minor, we delete it.

09

International Users

Aether Laboratories operates from the United States. If you visit our site from outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S., which may have different data-protection laws than your country.

10

Research Documentation Requests

Certificate of Analysis and other technical documentation requests are handled by our support team separately from marketing data, and are used only to locate and deliver the requested record, never to build a marketing profile.

11

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The version posted at the time you visit or place an order is the version that applies. We will update the effective date above whenever we make material changes, and notify customers by email when appropriate.
