We at Farah & Farah, P.A. (“the Firm” or “us” or “we”) respect your privacy concerns and are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. This privacy policy (this “Privacy Policy”) applies to automated and voluntary information collected on our website (the “Website”) as well as our other online channels and social media. The Terms and Conditions of the Website (“T&C”) are incorporated herein, and all terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning attributed to them in the T&C

This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you how the Firm may collect and use your personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) and other information through the Sites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party sites, resources, or Linked Websites, as those sites have their own policies.

We have a philosophy about the way we interact with our users. If you hear from us, we will always aim to be respectful, relevant, and appropriate. If at any time you do not feel we’ve lived up to our philosophy, please let us know by getting in touch with us at contact@farahandfarah.com.

How Can the Terms of the Privacy Policy Be Modified?

This Privacy Policy constitutes an understanding between you and the Firm. We reserve the right to change, modify, alter, or otherwise update how we handle the information we collect and process via the Sites and to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. All changes and modifications are effective upon posting. You agree to review this Privacy Policy periodically to be aware of any such modifications. We will indicate that changes to this Privacy Policy have been made by updating the date after “Last Updated” at the end of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the then-current version of this Privacy Policy, then you are not authorized to use this Website. Continued use of the Sites is deemed conclusive acceptance of the changed or modified Privacy Policy. Any material changes in how we use Personal Information will apply only to information collected thereafter unless we provide you with notice or obtain your consent in accordance with applicable law. The current version of this Privacy Policy is accessible via the footer of the Website’s homepage. By visiting the Website, you accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

How Do We Collect Information?

The Website enables Website users (each a “user” and collectively “users,” “you,” “your,” “yours,” or “yourself”) to browse the Website. By using this Website, you consent to the collection and use of your Personal Information and other information by the Firm as described in this Privacy Policy.

We may obtain Personal or Non-Personal information from third parties such as our service providers, vendors, independent contractors, business partners, sponsors, and other sources (e.g., offline records or publicly available information). We may combine the Personal Information we collect with information we obtain from these sources. We will treat any such combined information as Personal Information.

We may use Google Analytics and other digital services (“Apps”) to help our Website work better. The Apps use technical tools such as “cookies.” Cookies (including web beacons, pixels, gifs, tags, or similar technologies) are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and tell us how and when pages in this Website are visited and by how many people. Our cookies do not collect Personal Information, and we do not combine the general information collected through cookies with other Personal Information to tell us who you are or reveal your screen name or email address.

Most browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, as well as (depending on the sophistication of your browser software) allowing you to decide on acceptance of each new cookie in a variety of ways. Please refer to your browser’s “help/tool” or “edit” section for further information on managing the cookies feature on your computer. You may use this Website even if you choose to reject or delete certain cookies. However, we strongly recommend that you leave the cookies activated because cookies enable you to take advantage of some of the Website’s most attractive features.

The Website may contain plugins for services like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok and other social media. The Firm does not control any of the content from social media sites or plug-ins. We recommend that you review the privacy policies and data-sharing statements for such social media sites and plug-ins prior to clicking on the plugins. A plugin is a software component that adds a specific feature to an existing program, allowing for customization.

By registering and using this Website, you acknowledge that the processing of your information for the purposes described above may involve the transfer of such information from within the United States of America to countries outside the United States of America, whose data protection regulation may or may not be as stringent as those within the United States of America.

We have in place substantial security procedures as to how your Personal Information is stored and used and to try to prevent any unauthorized access or misuse of it. Our goal is for all Personal Information you submit to us to be located behind a firewall. We take security extremely seriously, but as no security system is 100 percent secure, we cannot completely guarantee the protection of your Personal Information any more than any other organization can.
