Privacy Policy on the Protection of Personal Information of Me Christos Karteris
At Me Christos Karteris, we firmly believe in the importance of protecting the personal information of our clients, employees, applicants, and suppliers, referred to below as “you” and “your.” We are deeply committed to protecting confidential information and respecting your privacy. We are subject to the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (“Law 25”). As such, we undertake to take all possible and reasonable measures to maintain the confidentiality of the personal information we collect in the course of our activities, while maintaining a framework that facilitates exchanges with our clients, employees, and suppliers.
In addition to complying with the requirements of Law 25, we are also bound by the Code of Professional Conduct of Lawyers, which imposes very strict standards regarding confidentiality, including solicitor-client privilege.
Purpose of the Policy
The Privacy Policy of Me Christos Karteris (the “Policy”) is intended to inform its clients, employees, applicants, and suppliers of our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of personal information. By choosing to provide us with personal information, whether via the Internet, our client portal, by email, in person, by telephone, or by any other means, you accept the terms and conditions of this Policy and authorize us to process your personal information in accordance with it, for the purposes set out below.
Why Do We Collect Personal Information?
Me Christos Karteris collects personal information only in connection with his various activities and the mandates entrusted to him, or for purposes consistent with those activities, always in compliance with applicable laws.
What Personal Information Do We Collect?
The amount and type of information collected are limited to what is necessary for the identified purposes. Me Christos Karteris collects only what he needs.
Given the nature of his activities, Me Christos Karteris may be required to retain a significant amount of personal data. This may include, without limitation: first name, last name, and email address, in addition to any other personal information that you or Me Christos Karteris have deemed relevant and that you have provided to us.
Please note that if you provide us with personal information about other individuals, you must ensure that you have given those individuals appropriate notice that you are providing us with their information and that you have obtained their consent to such disclosure.
Who May Access Your Personal Information?
Me Christos Karteris will never disclose your personal information unless legally required to do so. He takes all reasonably necessary measures to ensure that your personal data is processed securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Your personal data is processed at our operational offices and at any other location where the parties involved in such processing are located, such as our service providers. Only our personnel and authorized suppliers may access your information, to the extent that such information is necessary for the performance of their duties.
How Is Your Personal Information Protected?
Me Christos Karteris has adopted appropriate physical, technical, and administrative security procedures to best protect your personal information against any unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. These measures are regularly reassessed and improved to ensure optimal protection of your data.
For example, our website is hosted on physical, private, and secure servers located in Canada, which use built-in security measures. Our web technology provider is Quebec-based.
We use data transmission systems protected by password and encryption. Our personnel has been trained in the protection of personal information, and we enter into contractual agreements to that effect with all of our service providers. These providers meet the highest security standards in the protection of personal information.
We have implemented physical safeguards as well as organizational, contractual, and technological security measures to protect your personal information against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, use, or transmission.
For example:
- Restrict access only to authorized employees and service providers;
- Raise awareness among employees and service providers about the importance of protecting personal information.
Like most organizations, we cannot guarantee that the safeguards we use will always be effective. No method of transmitting information over the Internet, by mail, or of storing information is completely secure; Me Christos Karteris therefore cannot guarantee its absolute security.
A breach of security measures may result in risks such as phishing and identity theft. In such cases, we promptly take steps to mitigate the risks and to inform you when there is a real risk of serious harm or when required by law.
It is also important to note that we cannot be held responsible for personal data that you share with other users, that you send to us through unsecured email programs, or that you publish in public spaces such as our social media platforms. These public spaces may be accessed or viewed by anyone visiting our website and are therefore not covered by this Policy.
We also ask for your cooperation in helping protect your personal information.
