Palmieri, Tyler, Wiener, Wilhelm & Waldron LLP (“Palmieri Tyler”) respects your privacy and is committed to collecting, maintaining and using personal information about you responsibly. Your use of this Palmieri Tyler website (“Site”) signifies your acceptance of the terms of this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) and the accompanying terms of use, which are incorporated herein by this reference. BY USING THE SITE YOU AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY.  PLEASE READ IT.

PURPOSE – This Privacy Policy is designated to inform you about what personally identifiable information (“PII”) the Site collects, and what will be done with it. PII is understood to refer to information that would allow you to be identified or contacted, such as your name, physical address, e-mail address or telephone number. You may be accessing this Site from a computer or mobile device (for example through a mobile phone, iPhone, iPad, or other electronic mobile device) and this Privacy Policy governs your use of this Site regardless of the means of access. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information provided to us in the course of our attorney-client relationships or protected by confidentiality, the attorney-client privilege, the attorney work product doctrine or any other applicable protection. Nothing in this Privacy Policy should be construed to create an attorney-client relationship with visitors to our Site or, conversely, to detract from any of the protections resulting from such relationships.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT  – You are not required to submit PII to use this Site.

You may opt-out of such mailings, submit corrections to your PII, or have your PII removed from Palmieri Tyler’s contact database at any time by contacting us at the address listed below. We will retain your PII for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period as required or allowed by law.

Those organizations will have their own privacy policies that govern their use of any PII.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

DO NOT TRACK  – California Business & Professions Code section 22575(b) (as amended) provides that California residents are entitled to know how a website operator responds to “Do Not Track”(DNT) browser settings. Some browsers or other tools include DNT features which, when turned on, send a signal to websites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked across websites over time. The Worldwide Web Consortium has been working with industry groups and regulators to develop a DNT browser technology standard to provide a standard for interpreting the DNT signals, but to date no final standard has been adopted. Palmieri Tyler does not currently take actions to respond to DNT signals. We continue to review new technologies and may adopt a DNT standard once one is created. For more information about DNT, please visit: www.allaboutdnt.org.
