1. Our commitment
This policy explains how pennsylvaniasportsbet.com (“we”, “us” or “our”) handles personal information. We aim to comply with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), including the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), where they apply to us, together with other applicable Australian privacy obligations.
2. Information we collect
We may collect your name, contact details, identity and verification information, information about your legal matter, billing records, correspondence and other information you choose to give us. When you use this website, basic technical data such as device type, browser details, referring page and IP address may be processed through server logs or permitted analytics.
Because legal enquiries can contain sensitive information, please provide only what is reasonably necessary for us to assess your enquiry. We will seek consent where Australian law requires it for the collection of sensitive information.
3. How information is collected
We collect information directly from you through enquiries, meetings, forms, email and telephone. With authority or where lawful, we may also collect it from your representatives, counterparties, public registers, courts, regulators, professional advisers or service providers.
4. Why we use information
We may use or disclose personal information to:
- respond to enquiries and conduct conflict checks;
- provide and administer legal services after an engagement is agreed;
- verify identity and meet professional, regulatory and legal obligations;
- manage accounts, records, insurance, security and business operations;
- improve our website and communications; and
- send relevant updates where you have consented or where otherwise permitted, with an option to unsubscribe.
5. Disclosure and overseas access
We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to courts, regulators, insurers, barristers, experts, technology and storage providers, payment providers, auditors and other professional advisers. We do not sell personal information. Some service providers may store or access data outside Australia. Where required, we take reasonable steps before overseas disclosure consistent with APP 8, recognising that locations may vary with the provider and service configuration.
6. Security and retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards appropriate to the information we hold. No electronic system is completely secure. We retain records for as long as needed for the purpose collected and to meet legal, professional, insurance and recordkeeping requirements, after which they are securely destroyed or de-identified where appropriate.
7. Website storage and links
This website uses local browser storage to remember your cookie preference. Optional analytics, if introduced and accepted, may use cookies. External websites have their own privacy practices, and we are not responsible for their content or handling of information.
8. Access and correction
You may ask to access personal information we hold about you or request correction if it is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading. Exceptions may apply under the Privacy Act, including where legal professional privilege is relevant. We may need to verify your identity and will explain any refusal as required by law.
