We have published this Privacy Policy to help you understand how we collect and use your personal information.

Collection of Personally Identifiable Information

Certain features of gslegalconsult.com require you to provide personally identifiable information. Personally, identifiable information generally includes information that could be used to determine your identity, such as your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, birth date, among other information. The following are certain situations in which we may collect personally identifiable information from you:

Registration: When you register with us, we may ask for personally identifiable information like your e-mail address and birth date. We collect this personally identifiable information from you.

Forms: We may collect personally identifiable information from you if you choose to fill out any forms, profiles, or surveys on gslegalconsult.com.

Correspondence: If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters, or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on gslegalconsult.com, we may choose to collect such information about you.

Other Sources: We may receive and collect information about you from other sources, such as instant messaging services, blogs, newspapers, other users of our products and services, and our affiliates.

Use of Personally Identifiable Information

We use your personally identifiable information as follows:

- to fulfill your requests for certain products, services, and information;
- to contact you and deliver information to you such as administrative notices, offerings, and other communications relevant to your use of venustaslaw.com;
- to provide you information about seminars, services, events, and information offered by us and our affiliates; to analyze site usage, conduct market research, improve marketing and promotional efforts, and improve and customize our content, layout, products, and services;
- to provide customer support and troubleshoot and resolve problems and disputes;
- for trying to detect and protect against error, fraud, or other criminal activity, enforcing our Terms & Conditions, other internal purposes, and as otherwise described to you at the time of collection; and
- as otherwise outlined in this Privacy Policy.

You expressly agree to our use of your personally identifiable information as outlined in this Privacy Policy and the Terms & Conditions.

Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information

The following describes some of the ways that your personally identifiable information may be disclosed in the normal scope of business:

Co-Sponsored Events: Depending on your privacy preferences, we may contact you with information about seminars and other events sponsored by us. Some of these events may be co-sponsored with other organizations. In such cases, we may lend our mailing list to a co-sponsor so that all communications regarding the event can be processed centrally.

Internal Service Providers: We may use third parties that we refer to as internal service providers to facilitate or outsource one or more aspects of our business, product, and service operations (e.g., technology, Forums, analytical tools, advertising campaign management), and therefore we may provide some of your personal information directly to these internal service providers.

Please note that if you provide additional information to an internal service provider directly, then the internal service provider’s use of your personally identifiable information is governed by its privacy policy. You should evaluate internal service providers' practices before deciding to provide information directly to an internal service provider.

Successors in Interest: Your personal information may be transferred to another law firm that succeeds to all or part of our business, for example, if we reorganize our structure or transfer a significant portion of our assets or personnel to another firm. In such an event, your personal information will continue to be protected by this Privacy Policy and the privacy preferences you have expressed to us.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right (and you authorize us) to share or disclose your personally identifiable information when we determine, in our sole discretion, that the disclosure of your personally identifiable information is necessary to identify or contact you or bring a legal action, including against you if:

- you are or may be violating this Privacy Policy or our Terms & Conditions;
- you are interfering with another’s rights or property, including, without limitation, our rights or property;
- you are violating any applicable law, rule, or regulation;
- necessary or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation; and/or
- requested by authorities in any act of terrorism or instance of local, regional or national emergency.

Personally identifiable information and other personal information collected from you may also be transferred to a third party due to a sale, acquisition, merger, other transfer, reorganization, or bankruptcy (a “Transfer“) involving us and/or our affiliates. We specifically reserve the right to transfer personally identifiable information collected from gslegalconsult.com, and any of its databases, together with any personally identifiable information contained therein, to a third party in connection with a Transfer, and nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to interfere with our ability to transfer all or part of our business and/or assets (including gslegalconsult.com) to an affiliate or independent third party at any time, for any purpose, without any limitation whatsoever.

Please note that, although we use security measures to keep your personally identifiable information anonymous, no security measure is perfect or impenetrable. Due to the existing environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Therefore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary within this Privacy Policy, the Terms & Conditions or gslegalconsult.com, you use gslegalconsult.com at your own risk, and we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private.

Network Advertising

We may use third-party advertising companies for marketing, advertising, and promotional purposes, as well as to serve advertisements to you. Using third-party advertising companies helps third-party advertisers and us better determine which advertisements or content to serve to you. For example, the third-party advertisers may use information regarding your visits to gslegalconsult.com and other Websites to provide advertisements about goods and services that third-party advertisers believe will be of interest to you.

The types of information that third-party advertising companies may collect include the following:
- the type of Internet browser you use;
- the type of computer operating system you use;
- the domain name of a Web site you visit, as well as information related to Web sites and Web pages you are viewing when an advertisement is requested;
- whether or not you visit specific pages of gslegalconsult.com or other Web sites;
- the location of your Internet service provider’s point of presence;
- the date and time of a visit to a Web site;
- search keywords passed from another server;
- the number of times you have clicked on an advertisement; and
- other interactions between you and a Web site.

Cookie technology

“Cookies” are alphanumeric identifiers in the form of text files that are inserted and stored by your Web browser on your computer’s hard drive. Our external service providers, internal service providers, and third-party advertising companies may set and access cookies on your computer to track and store preferential information about you. We and our external service providers, internal service providers, and third-party advertising companies gather anonymous information about you through cookie technology on an aggregate level only. For example, a third-party advertising company may assign a cookie to limit the amount of times you see a particular advertisement or help better determine which advertisements to serve to you. Please note that most Internet browsers will allow you to stop cookies from being stored on your computer and delete cookies stored on your computer.

Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your information. In the unlikely event that an unauthorized third party compromises our security measures, we will not be responsible for any damages directly or indirectly caused by an unauthorized third party’s ability to view, use or disseminate such information.

Governing Law; Arbitration

This Privacy Policy is to be governed by and construed according to the laws of the state of Florida, without regard for principles of conflicts of laws. Any civil action, claim, dispute, or proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Privacy Policy shall be referred to final and binding arbitration, before a single arbitrator, under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association in Palm Beach County, Florida. You and we shall select the arbitrator, and if you and we are unable to reach an agreement on the selection of the arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the notice of arbitration is served, then the American Arbitration Association shall select the arbitrator. The arbitration shall not commence until the party requesting it has deposited One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) with the arbitrator as a retainer for the arbitrator’s fees and costs. The party requesting arbitration shall advance such sums as are required from time to time by the arbitrator to pay the arbitrator’s fees and costs until the prevailing party is determined or the parties have agreed in writing to an alternate allocation of fees and costs.

Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon you and us, and your and our respective administrators, executors, legal representatives, successors, and assigns, and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, in no event shall either you or we are entitled to punitive, special, indirect, or consequential damages, and both you and we hereby waive your rights to any punitive, special, indirect, or consequential damages, including, but not limited to, damages for any loss of profit, revenue or business.
