Danone's stated policy is to 'strive not to rely on animal testing' in development and research activities, prioritizing non-animal alternatives 'insofar' such alternatives are available. However, Danone explicitly reserves the right to conduct animal testing when required by regulatory authorities for safety approval, special foods with medical purposes, or for health research. This represents a conditional rather than absolute stance against animal testing.Company's own statement
