Research Access

Privacy Policy

Effective November 13, 2026 · Applies to tplabsusa.com and researcher catalog access registration.

Who we are

tplabsusa.com is operated by Lab Research ("we", "us") to verify researcher eligibility and manage catalog access. Questions about this policy can be submitted through our Contact Us page.

What we collect

How we use it

Cookies and browser storage

This portal stores a minimal verification flag in your browser so returning researchers can bypass duplicate registration prompts after confirming eligibility. It does not load third-party advertising pixels. Our web host, Cloudflare, measures page performance and security without using tracking cookies. Once you enter the main catalog portal, standard session cookies are used to keep you signed in.

Who we share it with

Only the infrastructure providers needed to operate the portal and fulfill orders: our web host (Cloudflare), our storefront and order management platform, transactional email delivery providers, and our email communications software. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for third-party marketing.

How long we keep it

Account details and your research-use acknowledgment are kept for as long as your researcher account remains active, and for any subsequent period required by record-keeping obligations. Technical security logs are retained for a short period to prevent abuse.

Your choices and rights

You can ask us at any time to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or opt out of marketing communications, by reaching out via our Contact Us page. Residents of California and other states with privacy laws have the rights those laws provide, and we honor those requests for all users.

Age

This portal and our catalog are strictly for adults aged 21 and over who are qualified research personnel. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 21; if you believe we have, contact us and we will delete it immediately.

Changes

If this policy changes, the effective date above will be updated accordingly. Material changes are communicated by email to registered researcher accounts.
