Introduction
Winsten Law Group (“WLG,” “we,” “us”) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of all individuals who use our website, located at www.winsten.com (the “Site”). Our goal is to safely deliver the information, resources, and services that are most relevant and helpful to you. In order to achieve this goal, from time to time we may collect information during your visits. This Privacy Policy is designed to help you learn more about the personal information we collect through our Site, how we use that information, who we might share it with, and how we protect it. Please note that this Privacy Policy applies solely to our online information-gathering and dissemination practices in connection with the Site, and does not apply to any of our practices conducted offline or outside of the US.
Information We Collect
Winsten Law Group collects two types of information about users of our Site:
(1) Personally identifiable information: In general, you do not have to provide us with your personally identifiable information to use this Site. However, certain services to which you may subscribe through this Site (e.g. email messages and newsletters) may require you to provide personally identifiable information, such as your name, physical address, and email address. We use such personally identifiable information to respond to your inquiries and to send you information, newsletters, etc. that you request.
If you contact us by email through the Site, we may keep a record of your contact information and correspondence, and we reserve the right to use your email address, and any information that you provide to us in your message, to respond thereto. In addition, on rare occasions, we may send by email important administrative information regarding the Site or services to users who have provided us with their email addresses; because this information may be important to your use of the Site, it is not possible to “opt out” of receiving these emails.
The Site is not directed to children under eighteen (18) years of age, and Winsten Law Group does not intend to nor knowingly collects personally identifiable information from such children. If you are younger than thirteen, please do not provide any personally identifiable information while using the Site.
(2) Non-personally identifiable information: We may use cookies to collect non-personally identifiable information in connection with the Site. Our web pages may incorporate “pixel tags”, “web beacons”, or similar tracking technologies (collectively, “pixel tags”) that allow us or our agents to track the actions of users of our Site. Pixel tags are used to collect non-personally identifiable information, such as the name of your internet service provider, the IP address of the computer you are using, the type of browser software and operating system that you use, the date and time you access our Site, the website address, if any, from which you linked directly to our Site, the website address, if any, to which you travel from our Site, and other similar traffic-related information.

We do not use such data in any way to create or maintain a personal profile of you or collect personally identifiable information from you.

We reserve the right, however, to provide such information to our employees, contractors, agents, and designees to the extent necessary to enable them to perform certain Site-related services , such as web hosting and to improve Site-related services and features, or maintenance services on our behalf. We also reserve the right to disclose such information to any third party in the good faith belief that it is necessary to do so for any or all of the following reasons: (i) by law; (ii) to comply with legal processes or governmental requests; (iii) to prevent, investigate, detect, or prosecute criminal offenses or attacks on the technical integrity of the Site or our network; and/or (iv) to protect the rights, property, or safety of Winsten Law Group and its affiliates, their partners, and employees, the users of the Site, or the public.

Security
Winsten Law Group is committed to protecting your personal information and seeks to employ commercially reasonable security measures consistent with legal industry practice to assist in protecting against the loss, misuse, and alteration of personally identifiable information which is under our control. Unfortunately, however, no security system, or system of transmitting data over the Internet, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, though we undertake commercially reasonable efforts to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot guarantee the security of our servers, the means by which information is transmitted between your computer and Winsten Law Group’s servers, or any information provided to us or to any third party through or in connection with the Site. You provide all such information entirely at your own risk.

Winsten Law Group therefore reserves the right to update and revise this Privacy Policy at any time. You can determine if this Privacy Policy has been revised since your last visit by referring to the "Effective Date of Current Policy" date at the top of this page. Your use of our Site constitutes your acceptance of the terms of the Privacy Policy as amended or revised by us, and you should therefore review this Privacy Policy regularly to ensure that you are aware of its terms.
