Privacy Policy

Effective: July 14, 2005

This Privacy Policy describes the personally identifiable information that Polsinelli Shalton Flanigan Suelthaus, PC ("Polsinelli," "we" or "us") collects in the United States through our website located at www.polsinelli.com (the "Web Site") and how we use that information. Please note that this Privacy Policy applies solely to our online information gathering and dissemination practices in connection with the Web Site, and does not apply to any of our practices conducted offline. If you have any questions or comments about this Privacy Policy or our practices regarding your personally identifiable information, please contact us at info@polsinelli.com.

Information We Collect

Polsinelli collects two types of information about users of our Web Site:

Personally identifiable information: In general, you do not have to provide us with your personally identifiable information to use this Web Site. However, certain services to which you may subscribe through this Web Site ( e.g., our legal alerts, email messages and events) may require you to provide personally identifiable information, such as your name, physical address, and email address. We use such personally identifiable information to respond to your inquiries and to send you newsletters or publications that you request. You may also receive other mailings relating to Polsinelli seminars or events that we think may be of interest to you. If you decide at any time that you no longer wish to receive mailings from us, please refer to the paragraph below headed "Changing or Deleting Personal Information."

If you contact us by email through the Web Site, we may keep a record of your contact information and correspondence, and we reserve the right to use your email address, and any information that you provide to us in your message, to respond thereto. In addition, on rare occasions, we may send by email important administrative information regarding the Web Site or services to users who have provided us with their email addresses; because this information may be important to your use of the Web Site, it is not possible to "opt out" of receiving these emails.

The Web Site is not directed to children under thirteen (13) years of age, and Polsinelli does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from such children. If you are younger than thirteen, please do not provide any personally identifiable information while using the Web Site.

Non-personally identifiable information : We may use cookies to collect non-personally identifiable information in connection with the Web Site. Our web pages may incorporate "pixel tags", "web beacons", or similar tracking technologies (collectively, "tags") that allow us or our agents to track the actions of users of our Web Site. Tags are used to collect non-personally identifiable information, such as the name of your internet service provider, the IP address of the computer you are using, the type of browser software and operating system that you use, the date and time you access our Web Site, the website address, if any, from which you linked directly to our Web Site, the website address, if any, to which you travel from our Web Site, and other similar traffic-related information. We may also aggregate your information with similar data collected from other users to help us improve our Web Site and the services that we provide through our Web Site. We do not use such data in any way to create or maintain a personal profile of you or collect personally identifiable information from you.

How We Use the Information We Gather

Generally, we will not disclose personally identifiable information that we collect through your use of the Web Site to unaffiliated third parties. We reserve the right, however, to provide such information to our employees, contractors, agents, and designees to the extent necessary to enable them to perform certain Web Site related services ( e.g., web hosting, improve Web Site-related services and features, or maintenance services) on our behalf. We also reserve the right to disclose such information to any third party if we believe that we are required to do so for any or all of the following reasons: (i) by law; (ii) to comply with legal processes or governmental requests; (iii) to prevent, investigate, detect, or prosecute criminal offenses or attacks on the technical integrity of the Web Site or our network; and/or (iv) to protect the rights, property, or safety of Polsinelli and its affiliates, their partners, and employees, the users of the Web Site, or the public.

Changing or Deleting Personal Information

If you would like to change your personal information, or if you no longer wish to receive materials from us or want your personal information removed from Polsinelli' database, please contact us at info@polsinelli.com. Alternatively, when you receive materials from us by email or other communications you can make use of the "opt out" provision in such communications so that we know that you no longer wish to receive such materials from us.

 

Security

Polsinelli seeks to adopt commercially reasonable security measures consistent with legal industry practice to assist in protecting against the loss, misuse, and alteration of personally identifiable information which is under our control. Unfortunately, no security system, or system of transmitting data over the Internet, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result of the foregoing, while we undertake commercially reasonable efforts to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot guarantee the security of our servers, the means by which information is transmitted between your computer and our servers, or any information provided to us or to any third party through or in connection with the Web Site. You provide all such information entirely at your own risk.

Revisions to Privacy Policy

Polsinelli reserves the right to update and revise this Privacy Policy at any time. You can determine if this Privacy Policy has been revised since your last visit by referring to the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Your use of our Web Site after the "Effective Date" constitutes your acceptance of the terms of the Privacy Policy as amended or revised by us, and you should therefore review this Privacy Policy regularly to ensure that you are aware of its terms.

Business Transfers

We reserve the right to transfer any and all information that we collect from users, or that we otherwise collect in connection with the Web Site, including, without limitation, to unaffiliated third parties or third parties ( i.e., other legal entities of Polsinelli), in the event of a sale or transfer of assets or of any portion of our business.

Privacy on Other Sites

Our Web Site contains links to other websites. Please be aware that we are not and cannot be responsible for the privacy practices of such other websites and that this Privacy Policy applies solely to the information which we collect through this Web Site. We encourage you to ensure that you read the privacy policies of all the destination websites which you visit.
