Privacy Policy

AttorneyLegalDirectory.com ("AttorneyLegalDirectory.com") is a “Directory Service”. This policy discloses our privacy practices and contains detailed information about the following: 1. What information of yours does AttorneyLegalDirectory.com collect? When you submit a case to AttorneyLegalDirectory.com, we ask that you provide your name, e-mail address, address, city, state, zip code, phone numbers and other information regarding your complaint. If you are an attorney, you will also be asked to provide your firm name, address, telephone number, state where you are licensed, and bar number. In the course of your use of the site, we may also request additional information from you. If you are searching for an attorney, you will be asked to describe your situation so that attorneys can evaluate your legal needs and generate a response to assist you. AttorneyLegalDirectory.com collects information so we can understand what makes you different from its other unique users. Information collected online is usually defined as being either anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information refers to data that cannot be tied back to a specific individual. For example, AttorneyLegalDirectory.com may collect certain information each time a visitor comes to our site so we can improve the overall quality of the visitor's online experience. AttorneyLegalDirectory.com collects the visitor's IP address, referral data, browser and platform type (e.g., a Internet Explorer browser on a PC platform). AttorneyLegalDirectory.com may also collect certain personal information in the following ways from different parts of its Web site. If you contact AttorneyLegalDirectory.com, we may keep a record of that e-mail correspondence. We do not collect any e-mail addresses of those who communicate with AttorneyLegalDirectory.com via e-mail. We use the information provided and collected so that we may respond to the e-mail. 2. What are "cookies" and how does AttorneyLegalDirectory.com use them? In addition to the personally identifiable information that AttorneyLegalDirectory.com collects we may also collect anonymous information passively using cookies. A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred from a website to the hard drive of your computer so that the site administrator may identify your computer and passively track its activities on the website. This unique number identifies your Web browser --but not you-- to AttorneyLegalDirectory.com computers whenever you visit our site. A cookie will not let a website know any personally identifiable information about you, such as your real name and address. AttorneyLegalDirectory.com uses cookies designed to let us know which particular computer you are using, but nothing more. AttorneyLegalDirectory.com is not generally interested in any one individual and does not collect personally identifiable information about any one person using cookies. Since cookies are only text files, they cannot run like a program on your computer, search your computer for other information, or transmit any information to anyone. 3.
