We may also automatically collect limited technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, pages visited, approximate location and Website usage information.

If you choose to create a profile, participate in The Legal Circle community, submit content or otherwise provide professional information, certain information may be visible to other users or visitors depending on the relevant feature and settings.

You should not publish confidential client information, privileged information, personal information belonging to another person, or any material that you are not authorised to disclose.

We may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Website, remember preferences, understand usage patterns and improve Website performance.

Third-party analytics, advertising, hosting, communication or other technology providers may also use cookies or similar technologies in connection with services they provide to us.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings, although disabling certain cookies may affect Website functionality.

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

We may share information where reasonably necessary with:

• Service providers who support our Website and operations.
• Event, technology, hosting, communication and analytics providers.

The Legal Circle is a professional community and information platform.

Use of the Website, submission of an enquiry, participation in the community, communication with a lawyer or viewing any information on the Website does not by itself create a lawyer-client relationship.

Information published on the Website is not a substitute for independent legal advice. Users should obtain professional legal advice appropriate to their particular circumstances before taking action on any legal matter.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, for legitimate business purposes, or as required by applicable law.

Subject to applicable law, you may request access to, correction of or deletion of your personal information and may withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

You may also opt out of certain non-essential communications by following the relevant unsubscribe instructions or contacting us.

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the content, security or privacy practices of such third parties.

You should review the privacy policies applicable to those websites before providing them with personal information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
