PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy is applicable to www.mrllp.com
and all other sites on the World Wide Web operated by Michelman & Robinson,
LLP ("MRLLP").
MRLLP does not currently collect personal identifying information. Incidental
to your use of this website, our web server automatically logs certain 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 website, the website address,
if any, from which you linked directly to our website, the website address,
if any, to which you travel from our website, and other similar traffic-related
information. We may also aggregate information relating to your and other
visitors' traffic patterns. We use the foregoing information to help us improve
the website and the services that we provide through the website. We do not
use such data in any way to create or maintain a personal profile of you or
collect personal information from you.
We will not disclose information we collect through your use of the website
to 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 website-related services (e.g., web hosting
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 MRLLP, the users of the website, or the public.
A recently enacted federal law, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, requires that
financial institutions inform customers about their policies for collecting
and disclosing nonpublic personal information that is obtained from clients
who use financial services for personal, family or household purposes. A law
firm which provides tax planning or tax preparation services may be classified
as a financial institution for the purposes of this Act. Please note that,
in accordance with professional standards of confidentiality, we have always
protected your right to privacy, and it will continue to be our policy to
do so.
In order to provide legal services to our clients, we may obtain nonpublic
personal information about them in the following ways:
We do not disclose any of the information described
above regarding our current or former clients to third parties unless the
client consents or unless the disclosure is required by law. It is possible,
for example, that we could be compelled to disclose such information in response
to the service upon us of a subpoena issued by a court or agency. In any such
case we would endeavor to timely advise you of the receipt by us of such legal
process, and otherwise act in any lawful manner to protect your interests,
such as by asserting (if appropriate) claims of attorney-client privilege.
We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about our clients to
those employees who need to know that information in order to provide products
or services to them. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards
that comply with federal regulations to guard clients' nonpublic personal
information.
We retain records relating to professional services that we provide so that
we are better able to attend to your professional needs, and in compliance
with applicable professional standards.
