How We Collect Your Personal Information and our Sources

Information You Give Us – We collect Personal Information directly from you when you register, sign in, use our Apps and make changes to your account, including your first name, last name and email address.

We use the information collected from you to recommend and advertise additional products and features that may be of interest to you, including products and features offered by our affiliates and third parties. You may restrict the information provided to the Apps. For example, you may decline to provide us with some or all Personal Information, however, restricting information will materially reduce the services PCLaw | Time Matters may provide to you and diminish the value of the Apps to you.

We collect this information in a variety of ways, including from web forms, pop-ups, technologies like cookies or other anonymous identifiers, web logging and software on your computer or other devices. When you visit the Apps, we store information based on your usage history. We also use cookies and anonymous identifiers when you interact with the services we may offer to our partners, such as advertising services that may appear on other sites and in any other manner that we deem necessary for our business purposes.2 Either directly or through our authorized third-party service providers, we may also collect non-personal information about your use of the Apps and produce and use aggregated and anonymized information derived from your Personal Information. This may include de-identified search results and information collected by cookies and similar technologies as described below. 

Generally, you are not under a statutory or contractual obligation to provide Personal Information to us.

    13. Non-discrimination – be free from unlawful discrimination for exercising your rights under applicable privacy law.

    How to Exercise Your Personal Information Rights

    To exercise your rights to correction or deletion, our Apps are configured to give you the means to access your own Personal Information for the purposes of deleting it and/or correcting it. If you have created an account on our Apps, you can delete and/or correct some of Personal Information through your account’s customer dashboard on the Apps. 

    To exercise any of the rights described above, you or your Authorized Agent (defined below) must send us a written request (via the methods described below) that (1) provides sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom we have collected Personal Information, and (2) describes your request in sufficient detail to allow us to understand, evaluate and respond to it. Each request that meets both of these criteria will be considered a “Valid Request.” We may ask for information to verify your identity, such as name, phone number, email and address. For a request to opt out of sale or behavioral advertising, we do not require a verifiable request. We will only use Personal Information provided in a Valid Request to verify your identity and complete your request. You do not need an account to submit a Valid Request. 

    We will work to respond to your Valid Request promptly within the timeframes required by applicable privacy law (usually between 15 to 45 days depending on the type of Valid Request, with the right for us to extend the response time as necessary). We will not charge you a fee for making a Valid Request unless your Valid Request would require a disproportionate effort on our part or is excessive, repetitive or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that your Valid Request warrants a fee, we will not charge you until we have told you how much the fee is and what it is for, and you have told us you still want to proceed.

    You may submit a Valid Request using the following methods:

    • Send an email to: secure@pclawtimematters.com;
    • To exercise your rights to correction or deletion, you may also delete and/or correct some of Personal Information through your account’s customer dashboard on the Apps; or
    • To exercise your rights to opt out of sale and behavioral advertising, you may also click Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.

    You may also authorize an agent (an "Authorized Agent") to exercise your rights on your behalf. To do this, you must provide your Authorized Agent with written permission to exercise your rights on your behalf, and we may request a copy of this written permission from your Authorized Agent when they make a request on your behalf.

    In some instances, we may not be able to honor your request. For example, we may not honor your request if we cannot verify your identity or if we cannot verify that you have the authority to make a request on behalf of another individual. Additionally, we may not honor your request where not required to do so under applicable privacy laws. For example, we may deny a deletion request if the information is necessary for us to provide our Apps to you or comply with our legal obligations. We may decline to honor requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backups), or for which access is not otherwise required.

    You have the right to appeal our decision to not honor your request or our refusal to take action on a request within a reasonable period of time by contacting us at the email listed above and clearly stating that the purpose of the contact is an “appeal of privacy rights.” Within 45 days of receipt of an appeal, we will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decisions.

We use cookies to collect certain information and recognize you as a user. We use cookies for a variety of purposes in order to enhance the quality of the Apps. Cookies allow us to personalize your return visits to our Apps and to save you time during certain activities. Cookies may remain on your device until you erase them, or they expire. Most web browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies. You can find out how to do this for your particular browser by clicking "help" on your browser's menu. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of all the Apps’ features. If you delete your cookies, or use a different browser or computer, you will need to set your cookies preferences again.

    Our websites use the following services and related cookies including, but not limited to, session cookies, persistent cookies, first-party cookies, and third-party cookies. You may disable cookies in your Web browser but doing so will impact the usability of the Apps.

    We may also use technologies, such as our own cookies and third-party cookies, to provide you with personalized online display advertising tailored to your interests. For additional information regarding our use of cookies and other unique identifiers, please contact us at secure@pclawtimematters.com.

    To the extent our Apps link to other websites, be sure to review the privacy policy on the websites you are visiting as many such websites have their own policies regarding cookies and the collection and use of Personal Information.

    Do Not Track

    “Do Not Track” is a privacy preference that users can set in their web browsers. When a user turns on the Do Not Track signal, the browser sends a message to websites requesting them not to track the user.

If you believe that we might have any Personal Information from or about a child under the age of 16, please contact us immediately at secure@pclawtimematters.com

    We cannot ensure the security of any data transmitted to us over the internet.
