If you participate in a Bioventus-sponsored clinical trial, you will receive detailed information on the scope of personal data processing in your informed consent document. The information you are given for your specific trial controls your situation. In general, your data will be processed for the purpose of conducting the trial, applying for the approval of a new medical device product, and, if applicable, for other purposes as specified in the pertinent declaration of consent for the study.

If you apply for a job with Bioventus, we will use the personal data that you provide in your application, including any attachments sent, for the purpose of considering your candidacy for employment.

If you have a social media profile, including a LinkedIn profile, Bioventus may process the data you choose to share on social media as well.
Bioventus will only process your personal data when allowed by law; that is, when we have a legal basis for processing. We use personal data when one of the following legal bases applies:
Bioventus will only process personal information in a way that is compatible with and relevant to the purpose for which it was collected or authorized by you, or as we notify you if the purposes change. You have the right to object to or request that we restrict the processing of your personal data for such additional purposes.
Bioventus will take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is accurate, complete, current, secure, and reliable for its intended uses. We employ procedural and technological security measures that are designed to protect your personal information from loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
Bioventus will retain your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for legitimate business purposes or as required by law. Personal information will be kept until it is no longer necessary to provide our products and services, to fulfill our contractual agreements with you, to comply with applicable law, to protect Bioventus’ rights and interests (e.g., where the retention is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims), or as otherwise needed for the purposes for which it was collected or processed.
At times, personal data may be transferred to service providers or systems in countries that may not offer a level of data protection equivalent to that in your country, including the United States. Where such transfers occur, Bioventus complies with the cross-border data transfer and export control laws of the countries in which it operates.
For personal data exports out of the European Union (“EU”) or European Economic Area (“EEA”), Bioventus enters into the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses with the recipient to ensure compliance with the special requirements on transfers of personal data out of such countries. Where necessary, Bioventus will take appropriate supplementary measures to ensure an essentially equivalent level of data protection to that guaranteed in the EEA, in accordance with European Data Protection Board ("EDPB") recommendations.
