Lawyer & Notary / Barrister & Solicitor
Privacy Policy
As a lawyer, I consider it important to protect the personal information entrusted to me by my clients and others in the course of my practice. My obligations as a legal professional are defined, in part, by the rules of professional ethics established by the Law Society of Upper Canada. These obligations apply to all professionals and employees of my firm, who help me provide legal services to my clients. This policy complements my professional obligation of confidentiality towards my clients and aims to inform users of the methods of collection, use and communication of personal information collected by my firm.
The fact that you provide me with personal information means that you accept and consent to my collecting, using and disclosing your personal information, in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree to these terms, I ask that you do not provide me with personal information. Unfortunately, some services cannot be offered unless you provide me with personal information. If you therefore choose not to provide me with the necessary personal information, I may be unable to provide you with such services.
I collect, from people or organizations, only the information necessary for the provision of legal services or information to them. To the extent possible, personal information will be collected directly from the individual concerned.
I strives to ensure the security of my office and its information storage systems, both physically, technically and procedurally, in order to prevent any loss or malicious use and any unauthorized access, communication or modification.
Regarding the communication of personal information, no mode of transmission or storage of data is completely secure. Although the physical characteristics of each mode are different, mail, telephone calls, faxes, and Internet transmissions can all be lost, misdirected or intercepted, and information communicated or transmitted may be subject to interception. malicious use.
I reserve the right to change this policy at any time by making the new policy available to the public in my office. Any questions regarding this privacy policy should be brought to my attention.
