The Law Office of Elizabeth McGee (the “Practice”) respects your privacy and is committed to collecting, maintaining and using personal information about you responsibly. This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) applies to all your use of www.mcgeelawsf.com and other services offered through the mcgeelawsf.com domain (the “Site”) except to the extent those services include privacy policies that expressly override this Policy. This Policy describes how your personal information will be treated as you use our Site and services. This Policy expressly does not apply to information provided to us in the course of our attorney-client relationships or protected by confidentiality, the attorney-client privilege, the attorney work product doctrine or any other applicable protection. Nothing in this Policy should be construed to create an attorney-client relationship with visitors to our website or, conversely, to detract from any of the protections resulting from such relationships.

BY USING THE SITE YOU AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY. PLEASE READ IT.

How we obtain your personal data

We will hold your personal data if we have received it directly from you. Therefore, if you use this site to fill in a form, then you are providing your personal data to the Practice. Similarly, if you correspond with the Practice (whether in writing or orally), we will retain the personal data which you provide in your correspondence.

The Practice regularly receives information as part of our professional activities. This information comes from clients and third parties with whom we or our clients have dealings. Some of this information might be your personal data.

The Practice also obtains information about your use of this site and the resources that you access. It does this by using cookies (small text files) which are stored on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies enable us to store information about your preferences and we use them to improve the functionality of our website and your experience when using it. Cookies can be disabled by changing the settings on your browser. If you do decide to disable cookies, you may not be able to access some areas of our website.

How we use and share your personal data

Whether we receive your personal data directly from you or from a third-party source, we will only use your personal data in connection with our ordinary professional activities as lawyers (including the fulfilment of our legal or regulatory obligations). Where you have provided your personal data to us directly, we will use your personal data for the purpose for which it was provided (which will include, unless you expressly so prohibit or it is prohibited by law, marketing our services to you).

Irrespective of how we obtain your personal data, the Practice shares it internally within our offices. We may also need to transfer this data to third parties. Where we share or transfer your personal data, we will do this in accordance with applicable data protection laws. By providing your personal data to the Practice, you are expressly notified of the transfer of your personal data to, and the collection and processing of such personal data in, the United States and other countries or jurisdictions where we or our vendors operate and you acknowledge that the level of protection afforded to your personal data in those jurisdictions may be less than that which would apply in your own country or jurisdiction.

We will endeavor to take appropriate technical and organizational measures against unauthorized or unlawful processing of your personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, your personal data.

Your Rights

In addition to your rights under applicable data protection legislation and where we are permitted or required by applicable law and regulation and by our professional obligations, we will provide you, upon request, with a copy of your personal data and we will correct any errors identified by you. We will also comply with your request to stop sending you marketing material and will refrain from doing so without your express consent in jurisdictions which so require. All such requests, or any questions or comments regarding this policy, should be addressed to info@mcgeelawsf.com.

Changes

We reserve the right to change this Policy at any time without advance notice. Should any new policy go into effect, we will post it on this website. Your continued use of this website after any change to the Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
