The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (names, email addresses, etc.).

Some data are collected when you provide them to us. This could, for example, be data you enter in a contact form.

Other data are collected automatically by our IT systems when you visit and use our website. These data are primarily technical data such as the browser and operating system you are using or when you accessed the website. These data are collected automatically as soon as you enter our website.

Part of the data is collected to ensure the proper functioning of the website. Other data can be used to analyse how visitors use the site and to respond to enquiries you send us.

You always have the right to request information about your stored data, its origin, its recipients, and the purpose of its collection at no charge. You also have the right to request that your data be corrected, blocked, or deleted. You can contact us at any time using the details above if you have further questions about privacy and data protection. You may also file a complaint with the competent regulatory authorities.

You have the right to have data which we process based on your consent or in fulfilment of a contract automatically delivered to yourself or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you require the direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

If you use this website, various kinds of personal data will be collected. This privacy policy explains what information we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

Please note that data transmitted via the internet (e.g. via email communication) may be subject to security breaches. Complete protection of your data from third-party access is not possible.

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke your consent at any time with future effect. An informal email making this request is sufficient. Please note that data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

Some of our web pages use cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain any viruses. Cookies help make our website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain in your device's memory until you delete them. These cookies make it possible to recognise your browser when you next visit the site.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

These data will not be combined with data from other sources.

The basis for data processing is UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f), which allows the processing of data to fulfil a contract or for measures preliminary to a contract, and to pursue our legitimate interests in operating a secure website.

Should you send us questions via the contact form on our website, we will collect the data entered on the form, including the contact details you provide, to answer your question and any follow-up questions. We do not share this information without your permission.

We will process any data you enter in the contact form only with your consent per UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a). You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal email making this request is sufficient. Data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.

We will retain the data you provide in the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Any mandatory statutory provisions, especially those regarding mandatory data retention periods, remain unaffected by this provision.

We collect, process, and use personal data only insofar as it is necessary to establish or modify legal relationships with us. This is done based on UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b), which allows the processing of data to fulfil a contract or for measures preliminary to a contract. We collect, process and use your personal data when accessing our website only to the extent required to enable you to access our service.

Collected client data shall be deleted after completion of the matter or termination of the business relationship, subject to legal retention periods.

If you would like to receive our newsletter, we require a valid email address as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified email address and that you agree to receive this newsletter. No additional data is collected or is only collected on a voluntary basis. We only use this data to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

When visiting our website, statistical analyses may be made of your surfing behaviour. This happens primarily using cookies and analytics. The analysis of your surfing behaviour is usually anonymous, meaning that we will not be able to identify you through this data. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools or by adjusting your browser settings.

We hereby expressly prohibit the use of contact data published in the context of website legal notice requirements with regard to sending promotional and informational materials not expressly requested. The website operator reserves the right to take specific legal action if unsolicited advertising material, such as email spam, is received.

We are committed to conducting our business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained. Aldgate Chambers Solicitors may change this privacy policy from time to time.
