Privacy Policy

This policy explains what personal information Lawfirm (“we”, “us”) collects through this website and in the course of our work, how we use and protect it, and the choices you have. We aim to collect only what we need, use it only for the purpose it was given, and keep it no longer than necessary.

Information we collect

• When you contact us: your name, email address, telephone number (optional), the topic you choose and the message you write.
• When we act for you: the information needed to provide our services, which may include identity documents, financial details and information about other people involved in your matter.
• When you visit the website: the technical information a web server records automatically, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested.

How we use your information

• To respond to your inquiry and decide whether we can help.
• To provide legal services and manage our relationship with you.
• To meet our professional, legal and regulatory obligations, including record-keeping and conflict checks.
• To keep the website secure and working properly.

We do not use your information for marketing without your consent, and we never sell it.

Why we may use it

We use personal information because you have asked us to (for example by sending a message), because we need it to provide services you have engaged us for, because we must do so to meet legal or professional obligations, or because it is necessary for our legitimate interests in running a secure and well-managed practice, in a way that does not override your rights.

Who we share it with

We share personal information only when necessary: with service providers who host our website and email and are bound to protect it; with other parties to your matter, such as courts, other lawyers or experts, when you instruct us to or when the matter requires it; and when we are required to by law. Each provider receives only what it needs for its task.

International transfers

Some of our service providers may store or process information in other countries. Where that happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure the information receives a level of protection comparable to this policy.

How long we keep it

Messages that do not lead to an engagement are deleted once they are no longer needed to respond. Client files are kept for as long as professional and legal record-keeping requirements apply, and then securely destroyed.

How we protect it

We use technical and organizational measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, including access controls, encryption in transit and staff confidentiality obligations. No system is completely secure, so please do not send confidential details through the website until we have confirmed that we can act for you.

Cookies and similar technologies

This website does not use advertising or analytics cookies. It stores one small item in your browser for the duration of your visit so that its opening animation is shown only once. The map on the Contact page is provided by a third party and loads only if you choose to show it.

Your choices and rights

You may ask to access the personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to have it deleted where we no longer need it. You may object to some uses of it, and withdraw consent you have given. To make a request, contact us using the details below; we may need to confirm your identity first. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the data protection authority where you live.

Confidentiality

Information you share with us in the course of a matter is also protected by our professional duty of confidentiality, which continues after the matter ends.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last changed.
