Protection of Private Information and Documents Received

My law office is committed to the protection of your privacy. We treat all information received through my website, andreaparliament.com, including your registration information, with the utmost respect. By law, I must ask you to provide certain information about yourself, including your name, contact information, the organization you come from and certain other information used to verify your identity. If you choose not to provide such information, you may not be permitted to access certain website features or legal services.

My law office works diligently to ensure that it has taken all appropriate administrative and technical measures to prevent the unauthorized or unlawful use of your personally identifiable information, and to prevent any accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, such information. My law office will not sell or disclose personally identifiable information about you to any third parties except in accordance with this Privacy Policy. 

When your matter has been completed, you will be provided with any original documents not required by our office or other parties.  If you would prefer that we hold onto your original documents for safekeeping, we will be happy to provide this service and ask you to Sign a Safe Custody Agreement. All of our closed files are scanned and stored in digital format using 128 bit encryption for both the transference and storage of the files for a minimum of ten years.  If you require copies of documents once the file has been closed, a small administrative fee may be charged to retrieve the file from storage.

 

Collection of Digital Information

My Web site, like most interactive websites, collects certain information about visitors, even when they are not logged in. My law office may record your IP address, the URLs of the Web sites and pages you visit (before, during and after your visit to andreaparliament.com), the times and dates of such visits, information about computer hardware and software you use and other information that may be available. Also, my law office may place cookies on your computer to recognize you on return visits to enhance your browsing experience. You may adjust your browser settings or use other means to prevent cookies from being placed on your computer, but doing so may result in reduced functionality and a less personalized browsing experience.

 

 

Mandatory Disclosure of Information

My law office does not disclose any of your personal information to any third parties, except where required by the nature of our work as appropriate to governmental or regulatory authorities, or if required by law.  

 

Online Communication and Retention

While significant steps have been taken to ensure the security of digital information sent to my law office via Internet, e-mail or Webforms, nothing is ever 100% secure. Just like any other communication medium, any information you send to my law office is done at your own risk. 

Transmission of information from this Web site only creates an attorney-client relationship between you and my law office when you have specifically requested such a relationship through the appropriate online forms and have provided all of the information requested. The remaining general information provided on our website is intended for educational purposes only and does not create a client/lawyer relationship.
