• debit or credit card information

• social security number

Your personal information is collected in various ways:

• directly (e.g., when you complete a form or sign a contract);

• automatically (e.g., when you access our website, or social account); and

• through third parties and publicly available sources (e.g., through Facebook, LinkedIn, your company website, or otherwise).

​

• contact you for customer service

We will share personal information with law enforcement or other authorities if required by law.

We will not share your personal information with any other third party.

 

Legal Basis for Processing Your Personal Information

 

We rely on these legal grounds to process your personal information:

 

• Consent. We may use your personal information as described in this Policy subject to your consent. To withdraw your consent, please email us at hello@radianceiplaw.com. You may also choose not to provide, or to withdraw, your consent for cookies. Please see Your Legal Rights and Choices below for more information on opt-outs.

• Performance of a contract. We may need to collect and use your personal information to perform our contractual obligations.

• Legitimate Interests. We may use your personal information for our legitimate interests to provide our services and to improve our services and content. We process information on behalf of our customers who have legitimate interests in operating their businesses. We may use technical information as described in this Policy and use personal information for our advertising and marketing purposes consistent with our legitimate interests and any choices that we offer or consents that may be required under applicable law.

 

Users Outside the European Economic Area

Countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) do not always offer the same levels of protection to your personal data, so European law has prohibited transfers of personal data outside of the EEA unless the transfer meets certain criteria.

 

Many of our third-party service providers are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

 

Whenever we transfer your personal information out of the EEA, we do our best to ensure a similar data security by ensuring at least one of these safeguards is in place: 

• We will only transfer your personal information to countries that the European Commission have approved as providing an adequate level of protection for personal information; or

• Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal information the same protection it has in Europe; or

• If we use US-based providers that are part of EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have equivalent safeguards in place.

 

If none of the above safeguards are available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You may withdraw this consent. 

 

Security and Storage of Information

We have tried to help protect the personal information we collect. Unfortunately, no measures can be guaranteed to provide 100% security.  We cannot guarantee the security of your personal information in all circumstances.

 

Take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your device and account by choosing a robust password nobody else knows or can easily guess and keeping your log-in and password private. We are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or compromised passwords or for any activity on your account via unauthorized password activity.

 

We retain the personal data we collect for so long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the data was collected, to perform our contractual and legal obligations, and for any statute of limitations periods to bring and defend claims.
