Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Thank you for visiting the firm’s website. The Firm is committed to protecting and respecting the privacy of visitors to its websites. This Privacy Policy describes:
- how and why we collect certain information from you via the website and the online services provided through the website;
- with whom we share such information;
- how we store that information, including information as to how we secure the information;
- how you can access and update such information; and

If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or our information collection and use practices, please contact us using the information in the “Contact Us” section below.
Information We Collect and How We Use It
Non-personal Information. Like many websites, we may collect certain technical information about your use of the website. Generally, this information is not sufficient for the Firm to identify you without reference to other information. For example, we may collect your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, the identity of your Internet Service Provider (ISP), the number and duration of page views, how you were directed to the website, and the number of clicks you make when using the website. This does not include demographic information about you. We track and aggregate your usage information with that of other visitors to the website to better understand how effective our website is and how visitors interact with it. We may use third-party services, such as Google Analytics and our website host, to provide analytics based on this data. The analytics and the underlying data are generally only accessible to the Firm and its third-party providers.
Additionally, certain sections of our website may utilize session or persistent cookies. A cookie is a file that web servers place on an Internet user’s computer. Cookies are designed to store basic information about the user and transmit that information back to servers that recognize them. They may be used to measure visitor behavior on and in connection with a website, including through the transmission of usage information. A session cookie stays on your machine only as long as your browser is open and tuned to the site that placed the cookie. A persistent cookie remains on your machine after you log out of your account and will become active again when you return to the website. Some portions of our website use cookies as described below. You can adjust your Internet browser settings to reflect your preferences for accepting, storing, and/or deleting cookies.
Please note that do-not-track signals are not effective on our website.
Personal Information
You can submit personal information (such as name and email address) via the website for the following purposes:
- Asking for further information. You have the opportunity to provide feedback to us or make inquiries to us through the “Contact Us” link. We use this information to communicate with you as requested.
Sharing of Your Information
We may share your personal information with third parties in one or more of the following ways:
- Third-party service providers, such as website hosts: We utilize third-party services to host our website. These third parties may have access to your personal information submitted through the website, consistent with the hosting of the site.
- Third-party organizations that otherwise assist the Firm in providing goods, services, or information, including cloud storage providers in the case of firm and client data.
- Successor organizations. If the Firm undergoes a business transition, such as a merger or acquisition, we may transfer your personal information to the successor organization in connection with that transaction. If material changes to the Firm’s privacy practices will occur as a result of the business transition, the Firm will post a notice on the website.
- Auditors and other professional advisers.
- Law enforcement or other government and regulatory agencies, or other third parties, as required by, and in accordance with, applicable law or regulation.
We do not share or sell personally identifiable information to third parties for their commercial marketing purposes.
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as permitted or required by law or regulation.
The information which we may collect from you may be transferred to, stored and processed by us in a destination outside of the European Economic Area (the “EEA”), including the United States and countries whose laws concerning data privacy may not be comparable to those in EEA jurisdictions, but will only be done so in accordance with applicable laws.
How We Store Information Collected from You
We store your personal and non-personal information with the hosting providers and cloud storage providers discussed above. Our administrative departments may store application information in accordance with firm retention practices.
The Firm will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with our standard procedures, this policy, and all applicable laws.
The Firm uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect your personal and non-personal information, online and offline. Due to the nature of our website, we do not currently encrypt any transmissions to or from the website. If you are uncomfortable with the unencrypted transmission of personal information described herein, please do not submit information to us through the website.
Our employees, including contract employees, are generally subject to restrictions that limit their use of information obtained from the Firm to the business purpose of providing our services to you.
However, while we take reasonable precautions against possible security breaches of the website and our customer databases and records, no website or Internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. Owners of personal information are generally advised to take steps to keep their personal information safe to the extent possible.
How to Access and Update Your Personal Information
At any time, you may contact the Firm to request that we:
- provide you with a copy of any personal data pursuant to Article 15 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) and/or Section 45 of the Data Protection Act 2018 (“DPA”) (to the extent that each of the GDPR and DPA applies to you); and/or
- make changes to your personal information (including deleting such information).
If you request that the Firm update or otherwise modify your information, we will amend your personal information within a reasonable time after your request. To request modifications of personal information that the Firm possesses about you, please contact us using the information in the “Contact Us” section below.
However, please note that, after your personal information is changed, the Firm will continue to have the right to store all personal information collected from you through the website (including personal information which is no longer in active use due to its amendment in accordance with this Section) in our archives and to use and disclose such personal information for certain purposes permitted or required by applicable laws, including as we deem necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, to enforce our rights, or to protect the safety and security of our website or other users. For example, we are required by law to retain certain job applicant information for a minimum of three years (although where the GDPR applies we may retain job applicant information for a more limited period of time).
