Privacy Policy
Effective: July 2026 · Biological Laboratories
1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains what information Biological Laboratories collects through this Site, how it is used, and the choices you have. This Site currently collects information only through the contact/inquiry form.
2. Information We Collect
When you submit the inquiry form, we receive the information you choose to enter — typically your name, email address, institution or lab name (optional), the reagent you’re asking about, and any message you write. The form opens your own email client to send this information directly to us; we do not store form submissions on this Site.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information you provide to respond to your inquiry, confirm research-use eligibility, prepare quotes or orders, and provide Certificates of Analysis on request. We do not use your information for unrelated marketing without your consent.
4. Cookies & Analytics
This Site does not currently set tracking cookies or run third-party analytics. If that changes, this section will be updated to describe what is collected and how to opt out.
5. How We Share Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share order-related information with shipping carriers and independent testing labs strictly as needed to fulfill an order or provide a Certificate of Analysis.
6. Data Retention
We retain inquiry and order correspondence only as long as needed to fulfill your request and meet our own record-keeping and legal obligations.
7. Your Rights
You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you at any time by emailing orders@biologicallaboratories.com.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information shared with us, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
9. Children’s Privacy
This Site is intended for buyers 21 years of age or older and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
10. Changes to This Policy

Shipping & Refunds Policy
Effective: July 2026 · Biological Laboratories
1. Order Processing
Orders are typically processed within 1–2 business days of buyer-eligibility confirmation. Processing may take longer for large, bulk, or institutional orders.
2. Shipping Method & Cold-Chain Handling
Lyophilized reagents are shipped in discreet, insulated packaging. Cold-chain or dry-ice shipping is available on request for orders that require it — ask before you order if your protocol needs it.
3. Shipping Eligibility & Restrictions
We ship only to buyers who have certified research-use eligibility under our Terms of Service. We reserve the right to decline shipment to any address or buyer we cannot reasonably verify, and to comply with any destination’s local restrictions on research-chemical imports.
4. Delivery Times
Estimated delivery times depend on destination and carrier and are provided at checkout or by email. Biological Laboratories is not responsible for carrier delays outside our control.
5. Lost, Delayed, or Damaged Shipments
If a shipment arrives damaged or does not arrive within the expected window, contact us within 7 days of the expected delivery date with your order details so we can investigate with the carrier and arrange a replacement or refund where appropriate.
6. Returns Eligibility
Because our products are research chemicals sold by the lot, we can only accept returns of unopened, unreconstituted vials in their original packaging, within 14 days of delivery. Reconstituted, opened, or used vials cannot be returned for safety and quality-control reasons. Incorrect or defective items are eligible for a return or replacement regardless of this window — contact us first.
7. Refund Process
Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method within 5–10 business days of us receiving the returned item, or immediately for confirmed carrier loss or a defective/incorrect shipment.
8. Contact
For any shipping or order issue, email orders@biologicallaboratories.com with your order details.
