Privacy Policy Statement

Thank you for your interest in our website. The protection of your personal data during the collection, processing and use on the occasion of your visit to our homepage is an important concern for us. We have taken technical and organisational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations are observed by us and by external service providers. We would like to inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of your personal data provided to us, as well as about their processing and use.

1. Collection and processing of data
   Personal data is information about your identity. This includes information such as name, address, telephone number and e-mail address. In general, you can visit our homepage without leaving any personal data behind, e. g. if you only want to find out about our events and call up the corresponding pages. The accesses to our homepage and each retrieval of a file stored on the homepage are logged. This storage serves internal system-related and statistical purposes. The following are logged: name of the file retrieved, date and time of the retrieval, amount of data transferred, notification of successful retrieval, web browser and requesting domain. No personal data is transferred during this process. In certain cases we may need your name and address as well as other information in order to provide the services you require. This additional personal data is sent via e-mail and stored if you provide this information voluntarily, e. g. as part of an enquiry or a reservation, and you can object to the use of this data at any time. All you need to do is send an e-mail to post@lawfirmchange.com.
2. Purpose, use and disclosure of personal data
   If you provide us with personal data, we will only use it to answer your enquiries or for the use of information and communication systems as well as within the framework of statutory provisions. Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties or otherwise transferred if this is necessary for the purpose of carrying out the activities referred to in point 2, paragraph 1, or if you have given your prior consent to the transfer. We will only disclose personal information about customers if we are required to do so by law, or if we are required to do so by a court order, or if disclosure is necessary to enforce or protect our Terms of Service or other agreements. This applies accordingly with regard to the storage of data. Our employees and the companies we commission are obliged to maintain confidentiality and comply with the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act.
3. Erasure
   The deletion of stored personal data takes place if you revoke your consent to the storage, if their knowledge is no longer necessary for the fulfilment of the purpose pursued with the storage or if their storage is inadmissible for other legal reasons, unless legal storage regulations speak against a deletion, then in place of the deletion a blocking of the data occurs.
4. Helpdesk
   Upon written request, we will be pleased to inform you about the personal data stored on your person. We make every effort to store your personal data by taking all technical and organizational measures in such a way that they are not accessible to third parties. When communicating by e-mail, we cannot guarantee complete data security, so that we recommend that you send confidential information by post.
