Privacy Policy

Dunsmuir Law respects your right to the privacy of the personal information you provide us when accessing our web site.

Unless you otherwise stated by yourself or within the below policy, any personal information you provide to our office while accessing our website and its pages will be only to Dunsmuir Law.

The following policy explains how your information will be treated as you use our site and its features. Personal information includes your name and e-mail addresses, click-through activity, and any other personal information you might provide. This policy is subject to change.

(1) Each time a visitor comes to the our site, our server (as with most modern site servers) collects basic technical information. This includes, for example, your domain name (e.g., whether the user has logged on from aol.com or msn.com), referral data (e.g., we record the address of the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to our website) and browser and platform type (e.g., a Safari browser on an Apple device).

(2) We also count, track, and aggregate the visitor’s activity into our analysis of general site traffic flow (e.g., tracking where traffic comes from, how traffic flows within the site, etc.). To these ends, we may merge information about visitors and visits into group data; but we will not disclose your identity or personally identifiable data without your permission.

If you choose to subscribe, you may periodically receive an email newsletter.

We collect subscribers’ email addresses in order to distribute our newsletter and other announcements, but do not share them with any other companies, firms, or businesses.

Users can choose to unsubscribe from our newsletters at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions found in each email.

Visitors who register for our on-line forum community area provide us with a name, password and a working e-mail address. We use this information to set up your account.

We do not sell or redistribute the forum membership list and will not send you e-mail at the address you provide, except for infrequent announcements concerning the online forum.

Your name and affiliation will be posted along with your comments on the online forum, unless you select ‘anonymous’.

Participants in our online forum are expected to comply with the rules governing the area, but we cannot control third party usage of information you choose to provide in a public forum.

For more information, see the online forum comment page.

Our offices may from time to time conduct voluntary surveys of visitors to the site to obtain readers’ opinions.

Such information may be compiled and analyzed to improve our website and offer more useful information and content, but no personal details will be traceable or associated with specific individuals.

Our office will not otherwise use or disclose your information without your consent except (a) as described in this privacy policy, or (b) as required by law, court order or as requested by other government or law enforcement authority.

Communications of a specific nature that are related to a solicitor and client relationship are privileged from disclosure.

If you would like to unsubscribe from our email list, please follow the instructions at the bottom of the e-mail.

If you would like to remove your name and email address from our online forum database, you can send an e-mail requesting removal to privacy@Dunsmuirlaw.ca.

(A) Our website contains many links to other sites on the Web. We cannot control and are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such other web sites.

(B) If you have any further questions or concerns about our privacy policies and use of personal information, please send them to privacy@Dunsmuirlaw.ca.

Effective January 1, 2004, the privacy safeguards under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, S.C. 2000, c. 5, and as amended (hereafter “PIPEDA”) will have general application to all organizations that collect personal information and make use of such information in the course of commercial activities.

You can learn more about this law from the Privacy Commission Website. We are fully-compliant with PIPEDA.
