2. HOW WE DISCLOSE PERSONAL DATA

We disclose personal data in the following ways

  • With our Service Providers.

Authorized Agent Requests

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may submit a request related to your personal data.

4. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND PLUGINS

This Policy applies only to websites and apps operated by Kelley Drye & Warren LLP.

The Site may provide links to third-party websites for your convenience. We do not endorse the practices of such sites, and we are not responsible for their practices. We recommend that you review the privacy and security policies of each website you visit before providing any personal data.

The Site may also offer you the ability to interact with social plugins from social media networks, which may allow us and the social media network to receive data from or about you. In some cases, we may know that you clicked on a social plugin or receive other information from the social media network. Similarly, if you have previously provided personal data to a third party operating a plugin on the Site, that third party may recognize you on the Site. Your use of social media network plugins is subject to the plugin provider’s privacy policy, so please read these policies carefully to understand their policies and your options. As with linked websites, we have no control over the data that is collected, stored, or used by plugin providers, and we are not responsible for the practices of such networks.

5. SECURING YOUR DATA

We have implemented and maintain appropriate physical, administrative, and technical measures designed to safeguard the data under our control against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, unauthorized access, and other unlawful or unauthorized use. However, as no transmission of information over the internet is absolutely secure, we cannot guarantee the safety of your information.

6. REVISIONS TO THIS POLICY

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, remove, or otherwise revise portions of this Policy at any time. When we do, we will post the change(s) to our Sites. Your continued use of our Site following the posting of changes to this Policy means you accept these changes. If we change the Policy in a material way, we will provide appropriate notice to you, such as by posting a temporary banner on the Site, sending an email to individuals for whom we have an email address, or by temporarily noting ​“UPDATED” next to the Privacy Policy link on the footer of the Site.
