COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
We use cookies to track your use of our Website. Cookies are used to enhance your user experience and to help us improve our Website.
A “cookie” is a small piece of information that is stored on your device’s hard drive by your web browser when you visit certain websites. We use cookies to:
- track how you access and use the Website;
- learn when and how Visitors visit the Website;
- identify how often a Website page is used;
- learn which search terms are used to find the Website;
- learn which websites direct you to the Website;
- recognize Website Visitors and Users;
- display certain information on the Website and to improve your enjoyment of the Website and our Services; and
- For statistical purposes to improve the products and Services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks.
We use cookies we place on the Website and cookies placed by our third party service providers such as advertisers (“Third Party Cookies”). However, we do not control Third Party Cookies or the information collected through them and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through Third Party Cookies.
Acceptance of Cookies/Disabling of Cookies. Most browsers automatically accept cookies. However, most browsers allow users to manage cookies in the browser’s settings. For example, a browser may allow you to reject cookies from certain websites, reject certain types of cookies regardless of the website, reject or disable all cookies from all websites, and/or delete cookies stored previously. Some browsers also give you the option of being notified every time a cookie is sent to your browser by a website.
Changing your cookie preferences in one browser will not necessarily carry over to other browsers, so you may need to adjust your preferences each time you get a new computer, install a new browser, upgrade an existing browser, or alter or delete a browser’s cookie file.
The type of data collected and how it is used depends on the type of cookie. There are several common types of cookies. We may combine information collected by cookies with other data.
- Operationally necessary cookies (also called essential cookies). These cookies are required for the operation of the Website. For example, these cookies are required to identify irregular website behavior, prevent fraudulent activity, and improve security. They also allow users of the Website to make use of its functions (for example, shopping carts, saved search, and similar functions). Without these essential cookies, services that you have requested cannot be provided.
- Functionality-related cookies. These cookies allow us to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing or using the Website. This may include remembering choices you make, remembering your username, preferences, or settings, remembering if you reacted to something on or through the Website so that you are not asked to do it again, remembering if you have used any feature of the Website before, restricting the number of times you are shown a particular advertisement, remembering your location, and enabling social media components. As described above, you may disable functional cookies, but if you do so then various functions of the Website may be unavailable to you or may not work the way they were designed.
- Performance-related cookies (also called analytical cookies). These cookies assess the performance of the Website, including to help us understand how Visitors and Users use and interact with the Website. These cookies also enable us to personalize content and remember your preferences. These cookies help us improve the way our Website works and provide a better, personalized user experience.
- Advertising or targeted cookies. These cookies record your visits to the Website, the pages you visit on the Website, and the links you have clicked. They gather information about your browsing habits and remember that you have visited a particular website.
We and our third-party advertising platforms or networks may use this information to make the Website, its content, and advertisements displayed on our Website more relevant to your interests (this is sometimes called “behavioral” or “targeted” advertising and is further discussed below). These cookies are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. To find out more about interest-based ads and your choices, please visit the Digital Advertising Alliance, the Network Advertising Initiative, the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) Europe, http://www.allaboutcookies.org, and http://www.youronlinechoices.com.
Other Tracking Technologies. Our Website may also use the following types of tracking technologies: web beacons (also called clear GIFs), flash cookies, and pixels (also called pixel tags). A web beacon is a tiny graphic with a unique identifier that functions similar to how cookies function. However, in contrast to cookies, web beacons are embedded invisibly on websites. Flash cookies collect and store information about your use of a website and are commonly used for advertisements and videos. Pixels can be placed on websites or within emails to track your interactions with those websites and when emails are opened.
How We Respond to Do-Not-Track Signals. Due to the automatic collection of data using cookies as described above, we do not honor “do not track” requests.
Location Information. In addition to the approximate geographic location information collected as described above, we may, with your consent, access more specific location information to enhance the user experience and increase the usefulness of the Website. This includes geographical location information collected by device-based location services (including GPS data). You may choose to allow us to access your location by granting the Website access to your location when prompted or through your device’s location services settings. We also use the Google Maps API(s). Pursuant to the Google Maps APIs Terms and Conditions, use of this location feature is also subject to Google’s Privacy Policy. For information on how Google categorizes location information, please visit Types of location data used by Google. Both the Google Terms and Conditions and Google’s Privacy Policy are incorporated into this Privacy Policy by this reference.
Analytics. Our Website uses third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to collect and process data about your use of the Website, including when you visit the Website, URLs of the websites that you visit prior to visiting the Website and when you visit those websites, and IP addresses assigned to the devices from where you access the Internet. Our analytics providers may set and read cookies to collect this data and your web browser will automatically send data collected by those cookies to our analytics providers. Our analytics providers use this data to provide us with reports that we will use to improve the Website’s structure and content. For more information on how Google uses this data, visit Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s page on How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps. To prevent this data from being used by Google Analytics, follow the instructions to download and install the https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptoutGoogle Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for each browser you use. Using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on will not prevent us from using other analytics tools and will not prevent data from being sent to the Website itself or to Google. For more information about how Google Analytics uses cookies to measure user interactions on websites, visit Google Analytics Cookie Usage on Websites. You may disable cookies as discussed above, but that may impact your use and enjoyment of the Website and our Services.
Advertising Networks, Personalized Advertising, Remarketing, and Retargeting. From time to time the Website may use or participate in advertising networks and related advertising services that are managed and provided by third-party advertising servers, advertising agencies, technology vendors, and research firms, including advertising services provided by Facebook (sometimes referred to the Facebook “tracking pixel”). These services collect information about your visits to and interactions with the Website and other websites and will use that information to target advertisements for goods and services. The information collected may be associated with your Personal Information. These targeted advertisements may appear on the Website or on other websites. Advertising networks often gather data about consumers who view advertisements to make inferences about a consumer’s interests and preferences, which enables their computers to deliver advertisements directly targeted to the consumer’s specific interests. This practice is often referred to as “online behavioral advertising.” For example, a third-party advertising network might collect the type of web browser you use, the type of computer operating system you use, the domain name of a website you visit, whether or not you visit specific pages of the Website and other websites, the location of your Internet service provider, the date and time of a visit to a website, and other interactions between you and a website.
If you have a Facebook account but do not wish Facebook to collect data relating to you via the Website, we suggest that you: (a) hide social media platform plug-ins using an ad blocker; (b) always log off completely from Facebook before visiting other websites and delete all related cookies; and, (c) where the option is available, disable the advertising services and networks operated by Facebook.
Additionally, we may have enabled and implemented the following Google Analytics Advertising Features: Remarketing with Analytics, Demographics and Interest reporting, Campaign Manager Integration, Display & Video 360 integration, Google Display Network (GDN) Impression Reporting, and Segments. Remarketing with Analytics uses Google Analytics cookies to serve advertisements to you across the Internet based on your visits to the Website. Demographics and Interest reporting uses a third-party cookie to collect information about our Website traffic by tracking users across websites and across time, which generates a report for us to better understand Website users. Campaign Manager Integration allow us to view, analyze, and create remarketing lists using our Campaign Manager data in Google Analytics. Display & Video 360 integration allows us to create remarketing lists in Google Analytics and have those lists available in Display & Video 360. Google Display Network (“GDN”) Impression Reporting allows us to measure the impact of unclicked GDN Display ad impressions on website behavior and conversions. Segments allows us to isolate and analyze subsets of Website users by sorting our Google Analytics data. To opt out of remarketing advertising provided through Google, to customize your ad preferences, or to limit Google’s collection or use this information, visit Google’s Safety Center and Google’s Ad Settings and follow Google’s personalized ad opt-out instructions. Opting out will not affect your use of the Website.
WHEN WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION AND ELECTRONIC DATA
We do share Personal Information and Electronic Data with the following categories of persons or companies:
Service Providers. We may share Personal Information and Electronic Data with Service Providers who are required to protect Personal Information from disclosure and to only use such Personal Information for the purposes of performing the requested Services. We use companies that:
Help operate the Website;
Take payments when you pay for a legal service using our Website;
Fill orders you place using our Website;
Help with customer service;
Help us with public relations and marketing advice;
Provide Email service; and
Provide professional services such as accountants and lawyers.
Law Enforcement and Legal Proceedings. We may be required to share data with law enforcement members and with third parties in response to subpoenas, court orders, and valid law enforcement requests. We may also use and share Personal Information to defend our legal rights, or to protect third parties including sharing information necessary in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person. In complying with court orders and similar legal processes, LegalBreeze strives for transparency. When permitted, we will make a reasonable effort to notify Users of such disclosure. However, if you have engaged an attorney through our Services (for example, by entering into an engagement and promising to pay the lawyer any required legal fees or costs), LegalBreeze considers communications and documents shared between consumers and lawyers to be privileged attorney-client communications and, to the extent legally permissible, may notify the engaged lawyer of the subpoena, court order, or governmental request so that the lawyer may respond to the request.
Successors in Business Transactions. If our Company or its assets are subject to a sales process or sold, if the Company is subject to a bankruptcy or reorganization or if the data is an asset transferred or acquired by a third party, we may disclose Personal Information to the subsequent owner(s) or successor(s). We may also disclose such data in connection with the evaluation of those transactions.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
LegalBreeze does not knowingly collect information from, or direct any of our content specifically to, children under the age of 18. If we learn or have reason to suspect that a User of our Service is under the age of 18, we will promptly delete any Personal Information in that User’s account.
CALIFRONIA’S PRIVACY RIGHTS
Under California Civil Code Section 1798.83, California residents have the right to obtain:
a list of all third parties to whom we may have disclosed your Personal Information within the past year for direct marketing purposes; and
a description of the categories of Personal Information disclosed.
To obtain such information, please email your request to info@LegalBreeze.com.
DATA SECURITY
We use administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect the Personal Information we collect. However, we cannot guarantee the security of the Personal Information you provide when using the Website or that the Personal Information will not be lost, altered misused, or stolen. If you become aware of any breach of Website security or this Privacy Policy, please notify us by email at info@LegalBreeze.com immediately.
CONFIDENTIALITY, CONNECTIONS AND DOCUMENT STORAGE
When using our instant connection Services, including chat, email, phone and video conferencing, a consumer User may provide information about the consumer’s legal service needs via online forms on our Website or by speaking with a LegalBreeze employee. This information will be viewed by each lawyer the consumer elects to contact and may be viewed by LegalBreeze employees for quality control and technical support purposes. This information will not be visible to Visitors but is also not confidential insofar as it will be received and viewed by each lawyer you contact and by LegalBreeze employees. Please be careful when sharing information you consider sensitive or confidential via our Services.
LegalBreeze uses third party service providers to transmit, store, encrypt, process and display uploaded documents on your behalf. LegalBreeze has taken measures reasonably necessary to ensure that these Services keep uploaded documents private and secure, but these organizations are ultimately beyond our control. By using the documents feature, you acknowledge that you understand and agree to assume the risks.
ACCESS FROM OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
If you are accessing or using the Website from outside the United States, please be aware that data may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States (where our and our suppliers’ servers and databases are located and operated). The data protection and related laws and regulations of the United States might not be as comprehensive as those in the country from which you access the Website.
HOW TO ACCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
You may access, update, alter, or delete your basic User profile information by editing your user profile or contacting info@LegalBreeze.com. LegalBreeze will retain User Personal Information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you Services. If you wish to cancel your account, delete your Personal Information, or request that we no longer use your Personal Information to provide you Services, please contact info@LegalBreeze.com. We will retain and use your User Personal information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements, but barring legal requirements, we will seek to delete your full profile within 30 days.
