5. Online enquiries and unsolicited information
If you contact us through this website, please do not send highly confidential, privileged, sensitive or time-critical information unless and until we have requested it or agreed to receive it.
Submission of an online enquiry does not of itself create a solicitor-client relationship. Personal information submitted through preliminary enquiries may nevertheless be collected and assessed by us for conflict, intake, response and administration purposes.
If we receive unsolicited personal information that we do not reasonably require, we may destroy or de-identify it where lawful and practicable.
6. Cookies, analytics and website technologies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to:
– enable website functionality;
– understand website traffic and usage patterns;
– improve website design, performance and user experience;
– maintain security and diagnose technical issues; and
– support communications and content delivery.
The website may use analytics or similar services operated by third-party providers. These providers may collect or receive information about your interaction with the website and may store or process that information on our behalf.
You can usually manage cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may affect website functionality.
7. Direct marketing and communications
We may send you legal updates, publications, event invitations, alerts or other marketing communications where permitted by applicable law.
We may use your personal information for direct marketing where:
– you have consented;
– you would reasonably expect us to do so; or
– we are otherwise permitted by law.
We will not use sensitive information for direct marketing without consent.
You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe facility in the relevant message or by contacting us using the details below. We will process opt-out requests in accordance with applicable law.
8. Disclosure of personal information
We may disclose personal information to:
– our principals, employees and contractors;
– related entities and administrative support personnel;
– barristers, experts, translators, interpreters, consultants and agents engaged in connection with a matter;
– courts, tribunals, regulators and government agencies;
– counterparties or their advisers where necessary in a matter;
– service providers who assist with IT, hosting, cloud storage, communications, analytics, document management, cybersecurity, recruitment, accounting, payment processing, marketing or administration;
– insurers, auditors and professional advisers; and
– any other person or entity where disclosure is authorised, required or permitted by law.
We take reasonable steps to ensure that third-party recipients who handle personal information on our behalf do so appropriately.
9. Overseas disclosure
Some of our service providers, systems, cloud platforms, software tools or data storage arrangements may be located in, accessible from, or supported from outside Australia.
As a result, personal information may be disclosed to overseas recipients in connection with website hosting, cloud storage, communications, analytics, document management, software support, cybersecurity or other business operations.
Where we disclose personal information overseas, we will take reasonable steps, where required, to ensure the recipient handles the information in a manner consistent with applicable privacy requirements.
10. Security of personal information
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. These steps may include:
– access controls and user permissions;
– secure systems and password protections;
– cloud and infrastructure safeguards;
– document and file management controls;
– staff confidentiality and handling procedures; and
– cybersecurity and monitoring measures.
However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
11. Retention and destruction
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including for legal, regulatory, professional, accounting, dispute resolution, risk management and record-keeping purposes.
When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it, subject to any legal or professional obligations requiring retention.
12. Access and correction
You may request access to personal information we hold about you and request correction of inaccurate, out-of-date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading information.
Requests should be made in writing using the contact details below.
We may refuse access or correction in some circumstances permitted by law. If we do so, we will provide written reasons where required.
We may require verification of identity before processing a request. In some cases, we may charge a reasonable administrative fee for giving access, but we will not charge for making a correction request.
13. Complaints
If you have a complaint about how we have handled your personal information, please contact us using the details below.
We will consider your complaint and respond within a reasonable time.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may be entitled to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
14. Third-party information
