A.T. Law is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This policy sets out the basis on which any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it.
All countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) are required to have comparable standards to protect personal data. This is not always the case outside that area. We do sometimes need to transfer data outside the EEA as part of our business and work. For users of this website who are based in the European Union, you should be aware that information which you provide to A.T. Law may be transferred to countries which may not have data protection laws equivalent to those in force in the European Union.
Collection of Information and Data
We may collect the following information which relates to you:-
- Information you might provide if you contact us for example your home address, email address or mobile telephone numbers;
- Information you provide by completing forms on the website or contacting us via the website;
- Information in respect of visits made to our website.
The information provided will be used
- to enhance this website and the provision of our services;
- to provide services to clients where this might require the processing of your information and data on their behalf;
- to make available this website and our other services to you;
- for the smooth management of our firm’s business together with fulfilling any legal requirements;
- to offer you information related to our services that you may have requested from A.T. Law or where you agreed that we may contact you for with information which may be of interest to you
Email addresses
We respect the privacy of personal email accounts. We store your email addresses just as securely as other personal information. We will not send you unwanted email messages or junk mail, and your details will not be passed to any organisation outside A.T. Law for marketing purposes without your express consent.
We may however use email in response to enquiries you make about our services or service issues.
Disclosure of information
We take all reasonable care to prevent any unauthorised access to your personal data.
We may disclose your information to third parties where:
- we use other companies to provide some of our services or to provide services to us. To enable them to do this, we may need to let them process your personal information and data. Our staff and those working for our agents or contractors have a responsibility to keep your information confidential and are only allowed to use it to offer products and services on our behalf;
- we are under a legal or professional obligation to disclose your information and data;
- our firm is acquired or merges or transfers, whether in whole or in part, as a result of which your data and information will be disclosed to prospective merger partners or owners of this firm.
Right of access to your information
If you want to know exactly what personal information A.T. Law holds on you, you can obtain it. If it transpires that the information held is inaccurate, we will make the necessary amendments and confirm to you that these have been made. Please write to Archin Talpade in this regard.
How we protect your data
Our general Email enquiry forms are not sent via an encrypted channel and for this reason we ask that you do not include confidential information when using them (such as bank account details).
Cookies
Like most other websites, during the course of any visit to the A.T. Law website, we use small files which are stored on your hard drive by our browser ("cookies") to monitor your use of the website. Once you have closed your browser, we do not use the information these cookies collect.
We may use non-personally identifiable information to analyse the use of our site (such as cumulative information on the pages visited by our users), which allows us to improve the design and content of our site.
However, it is possible, though unlikely, that we might be forced to disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process or when we believe in good faith that the law, whether in the U.K. or elsewhere, requires it, for example, in response to a court order, subpoena or a law enforcement agency's request.
We cannot guarantee the privacy of personal information you transmit over the web or that may be collectable in transit by others, including contractors who provide services to us.
Changes
As a result of changes we make to our services, amendments to laws or regulation or developments in the processes we use, we may amend the data we hold about you and/or the manner in which or the purposes for which we process such data. Where we might require your agreement to making amendments to your data we will notify you of the change. However, unless you inform us otherwise, we will regard your continuing use of the services to which any amendments relate to represent your agreement to the amendments.
