This Privacy Policy details how we handle your personal information to protect your privacy.
Privacy Legislation
Like all Canadian organizations engaged in commercial activities, we are required to comply with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”). As a professional services firm, we have professional and ethical obligations to keep confidential the information we receive in the context of a lawyer-client and agent-client relationship.
Personal information is defined in PIPEDA as information about an identifiable individual, but does not include the name, title or business address or telephone number of an employee of an organization.
How We Use Your Information
Kevin Marshall Law Office uses your personal information only for the reasons for which it was collected. Like most other commercial websites, we may periodically review our data collection and usage practices in order to guarantee that the data we collect is used to provide or improve our services.
When you provide your personal information through a contact form on this website, we will only use that data to respond to your request to be contacted by our firm, and to provide our staff with a better understanding of your current situation.
Personal information provided when signing up for a newsletter is used to send you updates, newsletters or alerts.
Data collected when you access this website (pages you visit, how long you spend on a page, links you click on, browsers used, how you arrived on the website, etc.) is used to improve the website. We also use the data for marketing purposes to determine how to better provide you with the information you seek.
Options for Personal Information
We do not collect personal information for use beyond the terms laid out in this Privacy Policy.
You may withdraw your consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your personal information at any time, subject to legal and/or contractual restrictions and upon reasonable notice. Your withdrawal of consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your personal information may impact our ability to represent you and provide you with legal advice.
Who Uses Your Data
Your data is used by authorized employees or agents of Kevin Marshall Law Office in order to perform the outlined actions.
Security
We use appropriate and effective security measures in order to protect your privacy and the personal information that you provide us. We protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure or alteration.
Expiration of Data
Kevin Marshall Law Office will retain your personal information in an online file dedicated to you for as long as your data serves the purpose for which the data was collected. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will delete or anonymize it. If that is not possible, it will be securely stored and isolated until deletion is possible.
Access to your Personal Information
You have a right to challenge the accuracy and/or completeness of your personal information and to have it amended. You also have a right to request access to your personal information and to receive an accounting of how that information has been used and disclosed, subject to certain exceptions prescribed by law. For example, if the requested information would reveal personal information about another individual, your request for access may be limited or denied.
To request access or to amend your personal information, please contact the lawyer or agent with whom you normally correspond or write to our Privacy Contact at: help@kmlawyer.ca.
