Dear Visitor, at Novo Nordisk we respect and protect your privacy. This website has been created to provide information about our company, products and services. This privacy policy describes how and why we collect information about you as a user. This privacy statement applies only to information gathered on this website. We strongly encourage you to read the privacy statements of every other site you visit that gathers personally identifiable information.
We at Novo Nordisk strive to make a difference and improve the life of millions of people affected by diabetes and other illnesses around the world. We use information about our visitors to improve our products and gather vital information that could help us improve our websites. Being an industry leader in Corporate Social Responsibility we take your privacy seriously, and we only collect and keep information as long as we need it for a specific task. We will never transfer or sell personally identifiable information about our visitors to a third party unless we explicitly state so at the time of collection, or ask for your permission before doing so.
Some information we ask you for directly, but other information is collected automatically. All information collected automatically is stored in an aggregate form and cannot be used to identify you as a specific individual. To provide additional functionality on our website, answer your enquiries, and improve our products, we occasionally ask you to provide us with information that can at times be personally identifiable and sensitive. As a result, information gathered by us can be divided into two main categories: personally identifiable and sensitive information, and aggregated visitor statistics. We do not link aggregated visitor statistics with personally identifiable and sensitive information.
Aggregated visitor statistics.
When you visit our websites, we automatically collect general information about your computer and its location, as well as where you came from. This information cannot be used to identify you as an individual. This information is only used in aggregate form to tell us where our visitors come from, what they look at, and where they spend the most time. This allows us to improve our websites to create a better experience for you.
Information we gather automatically:
At times, we need to collect more personal information about you. We might ask you for information such as your occupation to better understand our visitors, and to improve your visitor experience.
Typically, the information we ask for includes some of the following, but this list is not exhaustive:
In any case, whenever we ask you for any personal information that can be used to identify you as an individual, we will always provide an explanation as to why we gather the information, how we gather it, how we store it, and how we plan on treating and using it. We will only gather this information if you specifically agree to ‘opt-in’, i.e. you explicitly give us your consent to collect this information from you. We will not gather any personally identifiable information from you unless you specifically agree to provide it to us. We will only gather and store personally identifiable information for the purpose stated during the gathering process. When we finish processing your information for the stated purpose, we will erase and destroy it to ensure your privacy.
There is always a lot of information that a company can ask you for,
but Novo Nordisk will only ask for information where there is a clear
and necessary need for that information, which is clearly and
adequately explained to you. You will always have a choice as to what
information you provide. Also, you can write to us and ask for a
summary of information we have that relates to you or contact us to
have information deleted or modified.
There are three main ways in which we gather information. They will
be explained below.
As with most other web sites, our servers keep logs over which files
were downloaded, and which computers downloaded those files.
Information gathered by our servers can be analysed and used to create
aggregate visitor statistics which we use for evaluating and improving
our sites.
We use a JavaScript based visitor tracking software solution that uses cookies on users’ devices, together with small scripts on our pages, which are executed every time you click somewhere on our site. We are tracking clickstream data and analysing various patterns of your behaviour, which is vital to our understanding of our visitor's needs and interest, and our ability to improve our sites.
Aggregate visitor information is sent by your computer to secure
servers owned by our visitor traffic tracking vendor. Only Novo
Nordisk and our vendor are allowed to access this data. Sale or
transfer of any data to a third party is strictly forbidden.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device, e.g.
computer, tablet or mobile phone. This link provides an in-depth
overview of the use of cookies and their consequences for visitors to
our website.

does not currently use/allow for use of chat rooms.
The only third party that might have access to your information is our visitor traffic tracking vendor. We store our aggregated visitor traffic data, and survey data on their secure servers. The vendor is working under the instruction of Novo Nordisk in accordance with our safety measures and is strictly forbidden from transferring any part of our data stored on their servers to any other third party. We don’t share personally identifying or sensitive information with other third parties without your prior explicit permission, except when required by law or official regulations. We may disclose, only in aggregate form, our statistical analysis or demographics of users to third parties, e.g. “x% of site visitors are men.”
Protecting the privacy of children is important. Novo Nordisk does
not intend to collect personally identifiable information from
children (a child is defined as being under the age of 18) without
permission of the child’s parent or legal guardian. Children should
submit personally identifiable information to Novo Nordisk only with
the explicit permission of their parent or legal guardian. Where
appropriate, we will instruct children not to submit personal
information. If your child has submitted personal information and you
would like to request that such information be removed, please
contact webmaster@novonordisk.com.
Novo Nordisk is committed to keeping data about you accurate and up
to date. Therefore please advise Novo Nordisk of any changes to your
details from time to time by contacting Novo Nordisk via the Contact
Us form on this page.
You may access the personal information held about you by or on
behalf of Novo Nordisk and to ascertain the purposes for which it is
processed subject to certain criteria being met. Please contact via
the Contact Us form on this page for further information if you wish
to obtain insight in your personal information.
