DrugBank Clinical API

Privacy Notice: Version 2.0, Effective

Things you should know

The DrugBank Developer Hub is our central location for customers and trial users to configure and access their DrugBank API accounts.

Account Creation

API Customers and potential API customers (trials) create an account in our API Developer Hub interface (https://dev.drugbank.com/). We capture the following information about these users directly in our database:

  • Email

  • Billing Email (optional)

  • First and Last Name

  • Phone number (optional)

  • Organization

  • Country

  • State / Province

  • HubSpot contact ID

  • Stripe Customer Identifier

  • API Key

In addition, we capture the following technical details, tied to this account, directly in our database:

  • Current / Last sign in IP address

  • Current / Last sign in timestamp

  • Sign in count

API Access

The Developer Hub Account is used to access the API. The customer receives an API key and password which they use to make calls. The DrugBank API is usage-based, therefore we track all requests made through this account to the API. The full request including any parameters (E.g. search terms, product IDs) are recorded. However, it is important to note that there are no API endpoints that require personal information to be submitted (E.g. patient details). The following information is captured for each request to the API:

  • The associated customer account ID

  • The request path

  • The full request body

  • The request IP address

  • The request timestamp

  • The status of the request (success/failure)

  • Request performance

We record the entire request body in order to understand how users are making use of the API (individually and collectively). In addition it allows our customer success team to better support customers when they face technical issues with the API.

Billing

The Developer Hub system integrates with the Stripe payment system. Stripe allows us to

automatically bill customer credit cards based on usage. Stripe handles all credit card

transactions, we do not store credit card information directly within our database.

As part of the Stripe offering, we are able to see and provide invoices to customers. Information on invoices is limited to:

  • Customer email address

  • Customer Stripe ID

  • Stripe transaction ID

  • Payment type

  • Payment timestamp

  • Payment status (success/failure)
