Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Kronenberger Rosenfeld, LLP (“Kronenberger Rosenfeld,” the “firm,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, and shares personal information of users who visit this website (the “Website”) or otherwise submit a case submission to us. This Privacy Policy does not apply to Kronenberger Rosenfeld's collection of information by any other means, including without limitation from its clients in the course of representing them.

Each time you (“You” or “Your”) use the Website, the then-current version of this Privacy Policy will apply. We encourage You to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. IF AT ANY TIME YOU FIND THIS PRIVACY POLICY UNACCEPTABLE, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE WEBSITE. Unless Kronenberger Rosenfeld obtains Your express consent, any revised Privacy Policy will apply only to information collected after the date of the revised Privacy Policy.

How We Collect Information Collection

Kronenberger Rosenfeld collects information through the Website that You voluntarily provide to us, such as Your name, email address, phone number, address, and any information that You submit with an online case submission form or when You join the firm’s email list. Your information may include identifiers, such as Your email address, professional, employment, or transactional information, categories of information protected under California Civil Code §1798.80, such as Your phone number, and characteristics of protected classifications under state or federal law. You need not provide Kronenberger Rosenfeld with personal information as a condition of using the Website. However, Your failure to provide certain personal information when asked will prevent certain features of the Website from functioning and may prevent Kronenberger Rosenfeld from effectively responding to Your requests.

Kronenberger Rosenfeld also uses cookies and other technologies to automatically collect technical information when You visit the Website. This information may include internet or other electronic network activity information and geolocation data. A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a user's computer or device, and the purpose is to identify You as a unique user of a website. Kronenberger Rosenfeld uses these common tools, including cookies that may be placed by third parties, to gather information that web browsers and devices automatically make available, such as the user's Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, internet service provider (“ISP”) domain name, computer and web browser type, pages visited on the Website, and other activity on the Website. For more information about how cookies and tracking technologies are used, see below.

We may also collect public information, such as if You post a review about Kronenberger Rosenfeld and tag us or the Website on social media.

How We Use and Disclose Information

Further, we may use Your information for commercial purposes, such as to send You marketing communications. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link within the email or contacting us as outlined below. In other words, Your information is processed for purposes of responding to You and investigating potential legal services, for legal purposes, in our legitimate interests in providing, improving, and marketing our services, or with Your consent.
