Maxwell Gillott Solicitors
Privacy Policy
We are aware of the real concerns of many of our clients over privacy on the Internet, and have developed this policy because we want you to feel confident about the privacy and security of your personal information. If you want to know exactly what personal information we hold on you, you can obtain it. If it turns out that there are any inaccuracies, we will make the necessary amendments and confirm to you that these have been made. Please write to us at King's Yard, High Street, Lancaster LA1 1LA.
We respect the privacy of all your personal information including e mail details. None of your personal details will be passed to ANY other organisation without your explicit permission. The enquiry and feed back forms on this website include personal information which we collect solely to enable us to reply easily to you, and provide you with the legal services you have requested. However, while we ourselves will not pass on any information, the internet is an open system and you should be aware of this before completing the forms. We may use email to send you messages about current matters and other information about the firm. We may also use email to keep you up to date with news about your current matters, as well as anything you show an interest in, either online, or through discussion with us. If you do not want to be kept informed in this way by email, please let us know.
We do not currently use “cookies” on our website.
Information supplied over the Internet to us may NOT be covered by solicitor-client privilege until a formal contract or retainer is in force between us. Once instructed we are bound to treat as confidential all relevant information supplied to us.
If you instruct us to act for you then we shall write to you setting out our exact terms of engagement and seeking your precise instructions on what we are at liberty to disclose to third parties. If there has been no other contact between us, we will destroy all information obtained from the contact and feedback sheets within 12 months.While nearly all processing is carried out within our offices, as the Internet is a global environment, some personal data may be transmitted internationally by our service providers. We are registered under the Data Protection Act and take all reasonable care to prevent any unauthorised access to your personal data. Third party Internet sites that you can link to through maxwellgillott.co.uk are not covered by our Privacy and Security policy, so we urge you to be careful when you enter any personal information online. We cannot accept responsibility or liability for these sites.
This privacy policy may be varied from time to time to ensure that we provide the best service for our clients. Please check on our website for the up-to-date policy which will apply to both new and existing users.
