Privacy Policy
Doty Barlow Britt & Thieman LLP (“DBBT”) respects the privacy rights of our online visitors and is committed to protecting your personal information. To further this commitment, we have adopted this Online Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to govern how we collect, store and use the information you provide us through this website.
Scope
This Privacy Policy currently applies to the following website: www.dotylaw.com
Please note that this Privacy Policy applies only to information submitted and collected online through the website listed above, and does not apply to information that may be collected by DBBT offline. When you link to this website or to any other sites from this website, the Privacy Policy for that website no longer applies.
Please note that by using our website, you signify your assent to DBBT’s Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use our site. We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy. If we make a material change to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by posting the change on our website or in this Privacy Policy. Please check back from time to time to ensure that you are aware of these changes. Your continued use of our website will signify your acceptance of these changes.
Log Files
We review data and information contained in log files located on our web server, which record the date and time of each visit to our website, the user’s IP (internet protocol) address, the referring IP address or domain (the prior website visited), and the files viewed on our website (including HTML pages, graphics, etc.). We use log file information to analyze data in the aggregate to determine the trends and usage of our site. We do not correlate the log data to identify specific users.
We do not, and will not, disclose, sell, rent or share any information derived from log files with any third parties or as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy.
Types of information Collected
In general, you can visit DBBT website without telling us who you are and without giving any personal information about yourself. However, you may also voluntarily provide DBBT with personal information. Personal information collected on our website may include your first and/or last name, telephone number, e-mail address and other personal comments provided to us.
Use of Information Collected
Generally, information that we collect for a particular purpose is used for that purpose only. For example, if you contact us to receive information from us, the e-mail address that you provide will only be used to send you, via e-mail, such information. In some instances, however, you may also be given the option to have your information used for an activity or service different from the activity or service that you are requesting. Only if you choose to receive additional services, will DBBT use your information to provide these services to you.
Use of Cookies or Other Means of Collecting Information
We may use cookies to improve the use of our website. A “cookie” is a small file or record-keeping device that websites often store on a user’s computer. Storage of cookies on your system provides an easy and convenient method for us to personalize your experience on our website. For example, cookies will tell us that you have visited our website before and may contain other information that will make your next visit to our site more enjoyable. We do not use cookies to collect personal information such as your name or to link your browsing habits to personal information already collected about you. You can always disable cookies or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being sent to your computer.
DBBT may also keep track of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for safety and security reasons. An IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer every time you log on to the Internet.
The only other information passively collected by DBBT is in the form of log files that record website activity, including how many “hits” a particular web page is getting (a.k.a. “navigational data”). These entries are generated anonymously and enable DBBT to assess overall website activity and troubleshoot technical concerns. We also use the log file entries for our marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve the online services we provide you. Log files are used internally only, and are not associated with any particular user, computer or browser.
Links to Third Party Sites
You should be aware that while you are browsing our website, you may be directed to other sites that are beyond our control and for which we are not responsible. Because we cannot guarantee that the privacy policies of such sites meet our standards, we recommend that you read the privacy policy of the website to which you link before you submit any personal information. We are not responsible for the collection, use, maintenance, sharing, or disclosure of data and information by such third parties.
Maintenance & Transmission of Data & Information
Although we use reasonable efforts to maintain the privacy of your personally identifiable data and information, due to technological limitations, and the risk of unlawful interceptions and accessing of transmissions and/or data, we cannot completely assure you, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable data and information, and any other electronically communicated information, will be absolutely confidential.
