PRIVACY POLICY
Effective October 1, 2009
This Privacy Policy is provided by Johnston Greene LLC, an Illinois Limited Liability Company (the "Practice"), and will govern your use of all websites owned or controlled by the Practice, or any other entity that is or becomes a part of the Practice (collectively, "Practice Websites"), including all content provided on, or through access to, any Practice Website ("Content") and all services provided through any Practice Website ("Services").
Your Privacy. The Practice is committed to the protection of your privacy, and will treat all of the information you provide through any Practice Website, including your registration information, with the utmost respect. The Practice works diligently to ensure that it has taken all appropriate administrative and technical measures to prevent the unauthorized or unlawful use of your personally identifiable information, and to prevent any accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, such information. The Practice will not sell or disclose personally identifiable information about you to unaffiliated third parties except in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Collection of Information.
As with many websites, the Practice Websites collect certain information about visitors, even when they are not logged in. The Practice may record your IP address, the URLs of the websites and pages you visit (before, during and after your visit to any Practice Website), the times and dates of such visits, information about the computer hardware and software you use and other information that may be available. Also, the Practice may place "cookies" on your computer to recognize you on return visits to enable the Practice to enhance your browsing experience, as well as to collect additional information about you. You may adjust your browser settings or use other means to prevent cookies from being placed on your computer, but doing so may result in reduced functionality and a less personalized browsing experience.
During registration and at other times when you visit Practice Websites, the Practice may ask you to provide certain additional information about yourself, including your name, contact information, the organization you come from and certain other information that the Practice may use to identify you. If you choose not to provide such information, you may not be permitted to access certain Practice Websites, or certain Content or Services.
Use of Information.
The Practice uses the information that it collects about you to improve your browsing experience by personalizing the Practice Websites to your interest, and also to help the Practice select Content and Services that you may find interesting and useful. Information about the Content you visit and Services you use may be used alone or in conjunction with information collected from other users to help the Practice tailor the Practice Websites and its other products and services to better suit the needs and interests of you and other users.
Information that you provide may also be used as part of the Practice's effort to keep you informed about events, special offers and selected products and services that may be of interest to you. In some cases, the Practice may contact you with information from carefully selected third parties, but the Practice will not provide information to third parties for such purposes. In other cases, your information might be shared with a third party pursuant to a process that contemplates such sharing but which you knowingly initiate.
The Practice reserves the right to disclose any information that it obtains through any Practice Website to appropriate governmental or regulatory authorities, if required by law or any governmental agency.
Transfers of Information. From time to time, the Practice may disclose information about you to carefully selected service providers that the Practice may engage to host Practice Websites or to provide other services. The Practice will require all such service providers to use the information solely to provide the specified services, and otherwise to conform to the requirements of this Privacy Policy. Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, the Practice will not provide your information to third parties for any other purpose, including marketing. Information that the Practice collects may be stored and processed in and transferred between each other entity that is part of the Practice and their respective partners, affiliates or contractors have offices in order to enable the Practice to use the information as set out in this Privacy Policy. The Practice will respect and protect your privacy as set out in this Privacy Policy.
Reviewing and Updating Your Information. After you have registered on any Practice Website, you may review and update your registration information by following the procedure set forth in the applicable Practice Website. From time to time, the Practice may contact you to ask you to keep this information current. By doing so, you can help the Practice notify you of new developments and news from the Practice and the Practice Websites, as well as changes to the provisions of this Agreement.
