OUR COMMITMENT TO YOUR PRIVACY
Help for Injuries values your privacy. This notice details our privacy policy and practices so that you can have this information at your fingertips. We want you to know how we collect, use and protect information about our visitors. This privacy policy will tell you:
What information we collect What we can do with the collected information How you can limit contact from us and our partners
Welcome to the Help for Injuries website (“Site”). Help for Injuries respects the privacy of those who access and/or use the Site (“you”, “your”, “user” or collectively “users”) and is committed to protecting the personally identifiable information we collect.
​
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
If the online Privacy Policy changes, we will post all changes in an amended version with a new “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy.
INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT
We collect two types of information from you. The first type is personal information that you actively choose to disclose (“Active Information”) and the second type is anonymous aggregate information collected in a manner not visible to you or others visiting the Site (“Passive Information”).
Active Information. Examples of personally identifiable data that you provide to us may include your name, address, email address and telephone number. In providing Active Information, you consent and agree to being contacted with information related to your inquiry and/or information regarding our or third parties’ products and services. If you provide personally identifiable data to us, you may later elect to have that information deleted from our files, or kept from being used for purposes other than for the service requested, by following the opt-out procedures set forth below.
Passive Information. We record information relating to your use of the Site, such as the information you click on, your browser type, IP address, referring URL, and timestamp information. We use this type of information to administer the Site and provide the highest possible level of service to you. We may also use this information in the aggregate to perform statistical analyses of user behavior and characteristics in order to measure interest in and use of the various areas of the Site.
​
HOW COLLECTED INFORMATION IS USED
We will share or sell your Active and/or Passive Information with our marketing partners and affiliates to provide you legal services and commercial products that may be of interest. We also use this information to better target content in an effort to create a more personally relevant experience. Please note that we also reserve the right to, and will, rent, sell, share or transfer your personal information to third parties for any legally permissible purpose in our sole discretion.
​

Cookies are used to customize newsletters, advertising, and web page content based on browser type and user profile information. We may share, sell, or license cookies collected from your browser and hard drive to third-party advertisers. These authorized third parties may link your name, address, and e-mail address to other information which they collect, such as past online/offline purchase information and web usage from other sites. These authorized companies are contractually bound to secure the data they receive. You may disable cookies by adjusting the settings on your web browser. Each browser is different, so you may wish to review the “Help” menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.

​
INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE
We may share, license, or sell information we collect to third parties for various marketing purposes, including their online marketing programs. We also reserve the right to release all your information, to the maximum extent permitted by law, in the event that (i) we believe that the Site is being or has been used to commit unlawful acts, (ii) the information is subpoenaed or otherwise required in a court proceeding, (iii) you violate or breach an agreement with the Site, (iv) you have submitted fraudulent or otherwise invalid information to this Site, (v) we believe that you may harm, or have harmed, the property or other rights of us, our members, our employees, the Site’s other users or any other third party, (vi) we are sold to or otherwise acquired by any individual, entity, or organization, or (vii) when we otherwise deem it necessary or appropriate. We may disclose any record or communication to any third party when we, in our sole discretion, determine the disclosure to be appropriate, including sharing your e-mail address with other third parties for suppression purposes in compliance with the requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, as amended from time to time, or any other applicable state or federal law, rule, or regulation.
​
OPTING-OUT
You may opt-out of having some of your personally identifiable information used for certain purposes when providing us with this information. You may also decline to provide certain personal information to us and/or refuse cookies in your browser, although some of our features or services may not function properly or at all as a result. If you no longer wish to receive newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out by following the instructions included in each newsletter or communication or by contacting us as provided in this Privacy Policy. You may continue to receive email communications from us for up to ten (10) business days from the time we receive your unsubscribe request.
​
ACCESS/ACCURACY
To the extent that you do provide us with certain personally identifiable information, we strive to maintain the accuracy of this information. Our goal is to provide a means to contact us should you need to update or correct your information. If for any reason those means are unavailable or inaccessible through the Site, you may send updates and corrections about your personally identifiable information to info@helpforinjuries.com, and we will make reasonable efforts to make changes to the information we hold as soon as possible.
​

This includes monitoring our network and data for intrusions and utilizing industry-standard practices such as SSL encryption when transmitting sensitive information. We have also implemented physical, electronic, encrypted, and managerial procedures to protect and secure the information we collect. Please note that communication via email or mail may not be secure unless we inform you of the security measures in place prior to sending information.
​
LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites that we do not have any affiliation with, and we are not responsible for their privacy policies. It is recommended that you read the privacy policies of all such third-party websites.
​
CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
