Privacy Policy
This draft explains how ScarboroughLawyers.com handles personal information. It is intended for people who use our website and submit an inquiry or other message.
What information we collect
We may collect your name, email address, phone number, preferred contact details, language, the type of legal help you need, your short description of the issue, and information you choose to include in a contact message. We may also collect technical information needed to keep the website secure and functioning.
Why we collect it
We use this information to review your request, contact you, identify a participating lawyer who may be able to assist, send confirmations, answer general questions, prevent spam and improve the service. We do not use an inquiry to provide legal advice.
Who may receive it
Where appropriate, we may share your information with participating lawyers so they can decide whether they may be able to assist. We may also share information with service providers who help us operate the website, store submissions or send email, subject to appropriate safeguards. We do not sell your personal information.
Retention and safeguards
We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes above, legal requirements, security and resolving disputes. We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards, but no online service can promise complete security.
Your choices and deletion requests
You may ask what personal information we hold about you, request correction, or ask us to delete it, subject to legal and operational limits. Email requests to help@scarboroughlawyers.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Questions and complaints
Contact us first with privacy questions or concerns. This draft is intended to reflect principles under Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), but counsel should review the final policy before launch.
