Cookies, Tracking Technologies & Analytics

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to function effectively, analyze performance, and enhance your user experience. These technologies may be placed by us or by our Service Providers. We use the following categories of cookies:

  • Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms.
  • Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site.

You can control and manage cookies through your web browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. However, if you block all cookies, some parts of our website may not function properly.

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain Personal Information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of providing legal services, satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, and resolving disputes. Our retention periods are determined by considering:

  • The duration of our client relationship with you.
  • Our legal and ethical obligations under applicable law and rules of professional conduct, which may require us to maintain client files for a specific number of years after a matter is concluded.
  • The nature and sensitivity of the Personal Information.
  • The potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure.
  • Whether we can achieve the relevant purposes through other means.

For example, client case files are retained in accordance with professional responsibility rules, while records of consent for SMS messaging are retained as long as is necessary to demonstrate compliance. Upon request for deletion, we will erase or anonymize your Personal Information unless a legal or ethical obligation requires us to retain it.

Security Measures

We are committed to protecting the security of your Personal Information. We have implemented and maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure of the information in our custody and control.

  • Using encryption for sensitive data in transit and at rest where appropriate.
  • Providing regular data security and confidentiality training for our staff.
  • Implementing and maintaining secure network configurations.

While we take these precautions, we recognize that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
