Effective as of the date listed above, Exact Sciences Corporation, and its subsidiaries & affiliates, (collectively, “Exact Science” or “we” or “us” or “our”) have adopted this Cookies Policy. This Cookies Policy is designed to be read in conjunction our general Privacy Policy. For the purposes of this Cookies Policy, we say the “Website,” we mean Exact Sciences’ websites and their sub-domains, including https://www.exactsciences.com.

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard drive by a web page server. Cookies contain information that can later be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. There are several types of cookies:

• Session cookies provide information about how a website is used during a single browser session while a user is visiting a website. Session cookies usually expire after the browser is closed.
• Persistent cookies remain on your device between different browser sessions for a set amount of time in order to enable the website to remember user preferences, settings, or actions across other sites. A persistent cookie will remain on a user’s device for a set period of time specified in the cookie.
• First-party cookies are cookies set by the operator of the website you are visiting.
• Third-party cookies are cookies set by third parties that are different from the operator website you are visiting.
• Web beacons, tags, scripts, pixels, and other similar technologies may be used in the Website or in our emails to help us to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon.

Collectively, we refer to the above technologies as ‘cookies’ in this Policy.

We, along with external parties, use cookies and other similar technologies. You can see what cookies we place and/or collect and for what purposes by clicking “Cookie Settings” on the cookie banner when you first visit the Website.

We group the cookies that we use into the following categories based upon their function (note that all types of cookies, as described above, may be found in any category):

The Website allows third-parties to place cookies on your Internet-connected device in order to deliver advertisements based upon your web-browsing habits and history. Further, in order to provide interoperability and plug-ins from various social media websites (like Facebook), the Website allows these third-parties to place and collect cookies on your Internet-connected device. However, you can restrict the third-party collection of cookies through the instructions provided in the section How To Restrict Cookies below.

In certain jurisdictions, you may choose to enable online (where available) a universal tool that automatically communicates your opt-out preferences, such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) to disable non-necessary cookies automatically. Exact Sciences recognizes the Global Privacy Control but does not have a mechanism in place to respond to Do Not Track signals.

You can choose which specific non-necessary cookies to accept or reject by clicking on “Cookie Settings.”

You also can adjust the settings in your browser in order to restrict or block cookies that are set by the Website (or any other website on the Internet). Your browser may include information on how to adjust your settings.

We will provide notice of significant updates but encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on the Policy. We will post the date our Policy was last updated at the top of the Policy. Your continued use of the Websites constitutes your agreement to be bound by such changes to this Policy.
