PRIVACY POLICY

Our Commitment

When it comes to safeguarding your personal data or the anonymous information we gather as part of our website visit analytics, our commitment to you is to take every feasible step to maintain your privacy.

The information under our purview is stored on our own secure servers and protected by a firewall. Access to this information is restricted to Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia employees and authorized agents and only when it’s essential for the fulfillment of their duties (which can include but is not limited to system operation and maintenance).

Moreover, we have implemented numerous defensive mechanisms to prevent unauthorized access to the information you share with us. Specifically, our server utilizes Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. This allows us to encrypt the information you share with us. Encryption is akin to securing something in a safe — the key to unlock this safe is only held by our webmaster and a select group of highly trusted employees and authorized agents.

Furthermore, we do not distribute, share, sell, lease, or rent your information to external third parties, with the following important exceptions:

• Entities to whom we are legally obliged to release information in compliance with the federal Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, the California Online Privacy Protection Act, or via a court order
• Parties who require the information in order to aid us in meeting your needs
• External attorneys who we reasonably believe can assist you with legal issues beyond our scope of practice or geographic practice area
• Successors, assignees, and other recipients of our business assets in the event Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia is sold, merged, acquired, or dissolved, or if revealing the information is necessary to safeguard our legal rights or property

Please note that our online privacy policy applies only to information we collect.

Privacy Disclaimer
