Privacy Policy

This website is operated by the Biomolecular Research and Advanced Computing Center (BioRacc) (“BioRacc,” “we,” or “us”), part of the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences at Texas Southern University in Houston, Texas.

Our mailing address is 3100 Cleburne Street, Houston, TX 77004. You can reach us at kehinde.idowu@tsu.edu or 713-313-5641.

This website does not use third-party analytics, advertising trackers, or marketing cookies. We do not operate account registration or online payment forms on this site.

If you contact us by email or phone, we receive whatever information you choose to include (such as your name, email address, affiliation, and the content of your message). We use that information only to respond to your inquiry and, where relevant, to follow up on research, training, or collaboration requests.

Like most websites, our hosting environment may automatically record standard server or access logs (for example, IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps). These logs are used for security, reliability, and troubleshooting—not for marketing profiling.

We do not set advertising or analytics cookies. The site may rely on essential browser or hosting features needed to deliver pages securely. If that changes in the future, we will update this policy.

Scientific research data collected through BioRacc laboratory studies, collaborations, or institutional review board (IRB)–approved protocols is governed by applicable research agreements, university policies, and applicable law—not by this website Privacy Policy.

This policy covers only information related to visiting or contacting us through this public website.

Contact details and messages you send us are used to answer questions, arrange meetings, evaluate collaboration or training interest, and administer related university research activities.

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with university IT or administrative staff when needed to operate the site or respond to requests, or when required by law, university policy, or a valid legal process.

This site links to external resources, including Texas Southern University pages, funder sites, maps, and social channels. Those sites have their own privacy practices. We are not responsible for the content or privacy policies of third-party websites.

We retain correspondence and related records only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, university record-keeping, or legal requirements. We take reasonable administrative and technical steps to protect information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

This website is intended for a general academic and professional audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this site.

BioRacc operates under Texas Southern University. University-wide privacy, IT, and records policies may also apply to certain activities. Where university policy and this page both apply, university policy controls for university systems and records.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Continued use of the site after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.

Questions about this Privacy Policy may be sent to kehinde.idowu@tsu.edu, or by mail to BioRacc, 3100 Cleburne Street, Houston, TX 77004.
