This Privacy Policy describes how Brian Sebaaly Law  (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects the personal information you provide when using our website (briansebaalylaw.com) or through our advertising partners. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information.

A website privacy policy is a statement that outlines how a site collects and uses customer or client data. It establishes practices for collecting, using, disclosing, protecting, and managing personal information. Any website that collects user data needs to have a Privacy Policy 1. It is an essential legal document that informs users about how we collect and handle their personal data 2. By being upfront about what information we collect and how we use it, we demonstrate our respect for your privacy and our commitment to transparency 3. At Brian Sebaaly Law, we take an ethical approach to data privacy, going beyond basic legal compliance to implement best practices for protecting your information.

Data Security

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. These measures are designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Some of the security measures we employ include:

  • Data encryption: We use encryption to protect your data both in transit and at rest. This means that your information is converted into a code that cannot be read without a special key, making it much more difficult for unauthorized individuals to access.
  • Access controls: We limit access to your personal information to only those employees who need it to perform their job duties. This helps to prevent unauthorized access and ensures that your information is only handled by authorized personnel.
  • Regular security assessments: We conduct regular security assessments to identify and address potential vulnerabilities in our systems. This helps us to stay ahead of potential threats and ensure that our security measures are up-to-date.
  • Employee training: We provide our employees with regular training on data security best practices. This helps to ensure that everyone in our organization is aware of their responsibilities for protecting your information.
  • Secure data storage: We store your data on secure servers with appropriate physical and technical safeguards. This helps to protect your information from unauthorized access, damage, or loss.

We also take steps to ensure that our service providers who have access to your information maintain its confidentiality and security.

Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not provide any personal information on our website. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information.

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) is a federal privacy act that protects the privacy of minors online. COPPA ensures that any personal information or sensitive data, such as a first and last name, address, contact information, and other sensitive information, is not obtained from a child without explicit authorization from a parent or guardian. We comply with COPPA by:

  • Obtaining verifiable parental consent: Before collecting personal information from a child under 13, we will obtain verifiable parental consent in accordance with COPPA regulations.
  • Providing parents with access: We allow parents to review and delete their child’s personal information.
  • Posting a clear privacy policy: We have a clear and concise privacy policy that explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information from children.
