The client portal is separate from the public-facing Website and is intended for current clients to access case-related information and communicate with the Firm. Information submitted or maintained through the client portal may be governed by additional terms, policies, agreements, and security practices applicable to the portal provider.
Please use the client portal rather than the public Website contact form when the Firm has instructed you to communicate with us through the portal.
9. Third-Party Websites
Our Website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those websites before providing personal information.
10. Information Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures designed to protect information in our possession from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
Massachusetts regulations require businesses that own or license certain personal information about Massachusetts residents to maintain a comprehensive information-security program with safeguards appropriate to the size and nature of the business and the information involved.
However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
For this reason, please do not submit highly sensitive information through an ordinary Website contact form or other unsecured communication method unless the Firm has specifically instructed you to do so.
11. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, operating our business, maintaining appropriate records, complying with legal and professional obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements and policies. The length of time information is retained may depend on the nature of the information and the circumstances in which it was collected.
