Use of Information, Data Protection and Internet Privacy

This Privacy Policy describes the ways in which The Garvey Law Firm collects holds and uses information about individual persons who visit this website. Protection of personal privacy is extremely important to us. However, please remember that the security of information transmitted over the Internet cannot be assured.

Personally Identifiable Information

The Garvey Law Firm collects personally identifiable information such as name, address, telephone number or e-mail address only when it is voluntarily submitted to us on this website. We may use the information to respond to your requests and for our own internal purposes. Other purposes for which we may use your information may be disclosed to you when you provide your information. Where you indicate your consent, we may also provide you with helpful information, news and updates of The Garvey Law Firm services and seek your views on our services. Please note that by submitting personally identifiable information, you are consenting to such information being processed for the above listed purposes. For the above purposes, you agree that The Garvey Law Firm may use and store any such information provided by you. Third party suppliers, selected by The Garvey Law Firm, may also use and store your information, in accordance with The Garvey Law Firm instructions for the above purposes. In this context please note that your information may be held and/or used in countries outside of the United States. Although laws regarding the protection of personal data in countries outside of the United States may not require the same standards as United States laws, The Garvey Law Firm will make every effort to protect your information from loss or unauthorized disclosure.

Sharing Personally Identifiable Information

The Garvey Law Firm will not sell personally identifiable information to any third party for any purpose. We may disclose your personally identifiable information to our selected suppliers (as described above). We may also disclose your information in the following circumstances:

• (i) when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to you, or otherwise injuring or interfering with The Garvey Law Firm rights, property or operations, other users of this site, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities; or

• (ii) when we believe the law requires it, or in response to any demand by law enforcement authorities in connection with a criminal investigation, or civil or administrative authorities in connection with a pending civil case or administrative investigation.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information

The Garvey Law Firm may also collect non-personally identifiable information in aggregate form to track data such as the total number of visits to our web sites, the number of visitors to each page of our web site, and the domain names of our visitors’ internet service providers. We may use this information, which remains in aggregate form, to understand how our visitors use our web sites so that we may improve them and the services we offer. No personally identifiable information is disclosed in this process.

Use of IP Addresses

An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a set of numbers that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you log on to your internet service provider or through your organization’s local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Web servers automatically identify your computer by the IP address assigned to it during your session online.  The Garvey Law Firm may collect IP addresses for the purposes of systems administration and to audit the use of our site. We do not ordinarily link a user’s IP address to personally identifiable information of that user, which means each user’s session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to us. However, we may use IP addresses to identify users of our site when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with the site’s terms of use, or to protect our service, site or other users.

Links to Other Web Sites

The Garvey Law Firm web site may provide links to third party web sites as a service to our users. The privacy policy described here does not apply to those sites. Please ensure you check the legal and privacy policy sections of any site you access.

Security

To ensure the security and confidentiality of personal data that we collect online, The Garvey Law Firm uses data networks protected by standard firewall and password protection. Only authorized employees have access to the information you provide us. While we cannot guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration to data will not occur; we make every effort to prevent such unfortunate occurrences.

Binding Nature

By submitting personal data you agree to be bound by our privacy policy and agree that The Garvey Law Firm may, in its sole discretion, disclose information about you in the circumstances and to the extent set out in this policy.

Changes

This Privacy Policy may be revised at any time and the user is advised to check regularly for updates.
