Thank you for visiting this law firm's website (www.wlam.law) ("the Website") and giving this firm the opportunity to help with your legal issue. The Website is operated by Law 0ffice 0f T1m W. Lam ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and respecting your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy notice, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us. If there are any terms in this privacy notice that you do not agree with, please discontinue use of the Website immediately. This Privacy Policy only applies to the Website and its pages; it does not apply to our information collection activities outside of the Website, if any.
WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
Personal Information You Disclose to Us
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you participate on the Website. The personal information we collect may include the following:
Personal Information Voluntarily Provided by You. We collect names; phone numbers; email addresses; mailing addresses; contact preferences; facts related to your inquiry; and other similar information.
All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.
Information Automatically Collected
We may automatically collect certain information when you visit, use, or navigate the Website. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about who and when you use our Website and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of the Website, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes.
Like many businesses, we may also collect information through cookies and similar technologies. Cookies are files that a website or its service provider transfers to your computer through your web browser (if you have cookies enabled) that allows the website or service provider systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember information. We may use cookies to compile aggregate data about website traffic and interaction to offer better website experiences and tools in the future. We may work with third-party service providers to better understand the Website's visitors and to improve the Website.
Information Collected from Other Sources
We may collect limited data from public databases, marketing partners, social media platforms, and other outside sources.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION?
We may use your information for legitimate business purposes, entering and performing a contract with you, compliance with legal obligations, and with your consent.
WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to third-parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third-parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?
We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.
HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?
We do not offer any option or services which may require registration or login with third-party social media accounts other than Google (for which login or registration is optional). The Website's contact form and questionnaire is powered by Google Forms and is subject to Google's Terms of Service.
WHAT IS OUR STANCE ON THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES?
We are not responsible for the safety of any information that you share with third-party providers who advertise, but are not affiliated with, our Website, if any.
HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.
HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security, and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Website is at your own risk. You should only access the Website within a secure environment.
CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
