What information do we collect?

VISITORS: Our Firm Websites automatically log IP address information transmitted by your server, which may identify your or your Internet service provider’s Internet domain, but which normally would not include individually identifiable information such as your email address. You may browse our Firm Websites without disclosing any additional information to us, although certain services and features may be unavailable unless you provide us additional information.

INFORMATION REQUESTERS: You may voluntarily choose to submit forms on our Firm Websites or send us email to request newsletters, updates, information on our services, or to provide us with feedback. You should NOT send us any confidential information describing your legal problems or requesting advice on legal matters. See our Disclaimer for more information.

How do we use your information?

We use visitor logs to monitor and improve the performance of our Firm Websites, including navigation, links, search terms, and page and image load times. For more information on visitor logs and traffic analysis, please email Fran Sheldon, Web Technology Administrator, at fsheldon@saul.com.

If you choose to provide us with identifying information through a form or email, we will use it to facilitate fulfillment of your requests. We may also store your identifying information, and may use that information for future communications from Saul Ewing to you, including the Firm's legal Updates and Newsletters (see Publications), announcements and other information which may be of interest to you, and any communication reasonably necessary to respond to and process your requests.

b. We may provide your information to governmental agencies or other third parties as required by laws and regulations, including, for example, responding to subpoenas or other legal process.

How long do we keep your information?

We may keep contact information about information requesters as long as we deem it appropriate to fulfill the requests, maintain records of delivered information, or conduct marketing activities.

Do we ensure the accuracy of your information?

We use reasonable efforts to record and store data accurately when it is submitted to us through our Firm Websites. We do not assume any responsibility for verifying the ongoing accuracy of identifying information after it has been submitted.

How do we secure your information?

How do we use cookies?

Our Firm Websites may use "cookies" (small text files used to store information relating to visited Web pages) primarily to facilitate site navigation. If you are concerned about cookies, most Web browsers (such as Internet Explorer and Netscape) may be set to reject cookies or to prompt you individually to accept or reject a specific cookie. If your browser is not set to accept cookies, some pages may not display correctly and some features of the Firm Websites may not be available to you.
