Who collects your information

We collect information from you on the Website, and we are responsible for the protection of your information.

What information we collect

Requested information. We may request specific personal information (for example, on our Contact page) in order to fulfill your requests for information. We collect only basic personal data that does not include any special categories of information (such as health-related information). The types of personal information we collect and save include:

Contact information such as name, e-mail address, physical address, phone number, title, and company name.
Information you provide via forms or e-mail concerning our services, or other information such as feedback, comments, or other messages.
Technical information collected in our logs (such as standard web-log entries including your IP address, page URLs, and time stamp).
Device information such as the mobile phone provider associated with the device you use to access the Website, your device’s unique identifier, the type of device and its operating system, the pages or features accessed most frequently, messages placed through the Website, how pages or features of the Website are used, search terms entered, and similar analytics about use of the Website.

Aggregate information. We may also collect anonymous, nonidentifying, and aggregate information such as the type of browser you are using, device type, the operating system you are using, and the domain name of your Internet service provider.

Why your information is collected

We need to collect your personal information so we can respond to your requests for information. We also collect aggregate information to help us better design the Website. We collect log information for monitoring purposes to help us diagnose problems with our servers, administer the Website, calculate usage levels, and otherwise provide services to you.

How we use the information we collect

We use the personal information you provide for the purposes for which you submitted it, including:

Responding to your inquiries and fulfilling your requests. We may use your information to respond to your inquiries and fulfill your requests for information.
Communicating with you about our services. We may use your information to send you information about our services and other items that may be of interest to you.
Sending administrative e-mails. We may use your information to send you e-mails to (a) provide you with information regarding the Website, or (b) inform you of changes to this Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use, or our other policies.

We may also use anonymous information that we collect to improve the design and content of our Website and to enable us to personalize your experience of it. We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze how our Website is used, analyze trends, and offer you programs or services.

In general, we will not share your personal information except (a) for the purposes for which you provided it; (b) with your consent; (c) as may be required by law (for example, in response to a court order or subpoena, or a law enforcement agency request); (d) as we think necessary to protect ourselves or others from injury; or (e) on a confidential basis with persons or organizations with whom we contract to carry out internal operations or as necessary to operate the Website. We may also share aggregate information with others, including affiliated and nonaffiliated organizations. Finally, we may transfer your personal information to our successor-in-interest in the event of an acquisition, sale, merger, or bankruptcy.

Other ways your information could be shared

You may elect to share certain personal information with individuals or with the public through your own use of the Website — for example, if the Website makes it possible to share information publicly through social media. In that case, you control such sharing. Always use caution when sharing information through the Website. We are not responsible for any consequences of your sharing of information through and beyond the Website.

How you can access and control your information

For instructions on how you can access your personal information that we have collected, or how to correct errors in that information, please send an e-mail to chris@firmhandshake.law. We will promptly stop using your information and remove it from our servers and databases at any time upon your e-mail request. To protect your privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access, making corrections, or removing your information.

How we store and protect your information

We store personal information we receive on our Website systems for future use, and we have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect. No data transmission or storage solution can ever be completely secure; although we take industry-standard steps to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or receive from us, or that we store on our or our service providers’ systems.

If you are visiting the Website from outside the United States, your connection will be through and to servers located in the United States, and the information you provide will be securely stored in web servers and internal systems located within the United States.

We store personal information for as long as reasonably required for its purpose. We may store information longer for legitimate business reasons or as legally required; otherwise, we store your personal information until you request that we remove it. We store our logs and other technical records indefinitely.

Cookies and other network technologies

Our web pages may presently or in the future use “cookies” — text files that our web server may place on your device to store your preferences. We may use session, persistent, first-party, and third-party cookies. Cookies by themselves do not tell us your e-mail address or other personal information unless you choose to provide it to us; once you do, that information may be linked to the data stored in a cookie. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you control over whether to accept or reject it. If your browser does not accept cookies, you may not be able to take advantage of all of the Website’s features.

We or our service providers may also use pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs, embedded links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools in connection with some Website pages and HTML-formatted e-mail messages, for purposes such as compiling aggregate statistics about Website usage and response rates.

As you use the Internet, you leave a trail of electronic information at each website you visit (“clickstream data”), which can be collected and stored by a website’s server. We may use clickstream data as a form of non-personal information to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our Website, how visitors navigate through the Website, and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet visitors’ needs.

At this time, the Website does not specifically respond to do-not-track signals.

Collection of information by others

We provide links to certain third-party websites that you may click on from our Website. Please check the privacy policies of those other websites to learn how they collect, use, store, and share information you may submit to them or that they collect.

Children’s information

Our Website is not intended for use by children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from minors, and we comply with applicable privacy laws, including the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and associated Federal Trade Commission rules for collecting personal information from minors. If we discover that a child under the age of 13 has provided personal information to us without parental consent, we will make efforts to delete that information in accordance with COPPA. If you have concerns about our Website, or wish to remove a child’s personal information from our servers, please contact us at chris@firmhandshake.law.

California privacy rights

California law allows California residents to request information regarding our disclosures, if any, during the prior calendar year, of their personal information to third parties. To make such a request, please contact us at chris@firmhandshake.law, including enough detail — at a minimum your name and e-mail address — for us to locate your file. We will attempt to respond within 30 days of receipt. This policy does not cover all information sharing; our disclosure covers only information covered by the applicable law.

Changes to this policy

Because our business needs may change over time, we reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy. If we plan to use your personal information in a way that differs materially from this Privacy Policy, we will revise this Privacy Policy as appropriate. Your continued use of the Website following notice of a change means you accept that change.
