The purpose of this Privacy Notice (this “Notice”) is to explain how Clark-Esposito Law Firm, P.C. (“we,” “us” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses personal information we collect when individuals engage with us or use our services (the “Services”) and the personal information we receive about individuals as a result of providing the Services to third parties.  This Notice also explains your rights related to our processing of your personal information.

​

We may collect personal information in the course of our business, when you contact us or request information from us, when you engage our Services, or as a result of your relationship with our staff and clients.  We may collect the following categories of personal information: (i) contact details including name, physical address, phone number, and e-mail address; (ii) payment information (including bank accounts and wire details), billing instructions, and other relevant financial information; (iii) areas or topics that are of interest to you; and (iv) information that you provide to us as part of our provision of Services to you, which will differ depending on the nature of your engagement with us.  We may collect personal data from different sources, including sources that are publicly available, such as the internet and social media sites, from third parties engaged by us to provide Services for us or our clients, from third parties with whom we partner to sponsor or co-sponsor events, and from counterparties, adversaries or their respective counsel or other agents.  

 

We process your personal information as necessary to enable us to perform and deliver Services, including providing legal advice for which you have engaged us.  We may use your information for marketing and promotional purposes, such as sending you alerts on topics you have identified as being of interest to you.  You can unsubscribe from these marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe feature at the bottom of each marketing e-mail, if any, or by contacting us.  We may also process your personal information as necessary to conduct our business, such as to perform conflict checks and to maintain accurate records.  In addition, we will use your personal information as necessary to bill you for our Services, to collect payment, and/or to otherwise establish, defend or enforce our legal rights.  

​

In all cases, we have a legitimate interest in using your personal information as necessary to provide you with Services, to comply with our professional and ethical duties as attorneys, to grow and develop our business, to enforce or defend our rights, and to otherwise comply with applicable law. 

​

We may share your personal information with third parties to whom we outsource certain services, such as IT systems or software providers, confidential waste disposal providers, and document and information storage providers.  We may also share your personal information with third parties as necessary in the fulfillment of our Services, such as opposing counsel, courts, arbitrators, court reporters, clerks, government regulators, or investigators.  In certain instances, we may need to transfer personal information to countries that do not have similar protections in place regarding your personal information and its uses as set out in this Notice.  In such instances, we will take reasonable steps so that your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Notice.  

​

If at any point, you believe the personal information we have about you is incorrect, you may request to see the information and to have it corrected.  We retain your personal information for so long as we have a legal basis to do so.  You may also request that your personal information be deleted.  If you wish to object to or raise a complaint on how we have handled your personal information, or if you would like to have your personal information transferred, or if you have any other questions about our privacy practices, you may contact us.  If you are not satisfied with our response or believe that our processing of your personal information is not in accordance with law, you may register a complaint with the authority in your jurisdiction.  This Notice, as updated from time to time, covers all ongoing engagements between you and the Firm.
