Privacy Policy

Introduction and purpose

Brabners LLP (‘we’, ‘our’, ‘us’, ‘the Firm’) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of personal information. This policy describes how we collect and use personal information about you.

All personal information we collect or are provided with will only be held and stored in accordance with this policy and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”), the Data Protection Act 2018 and any other legislation relating to the protection of personal information (data protection laws). Brabners LLP is the ‘data controller’, unless stated otherwise.

When we act as the controller of your personal information, we are responsible for your personal information, including deciding how we hold and use personal information. We are required under data protection laws to notify you of the information contained in this policy. For the purposes of this policy:

• ‘Clients’ includes natural persons who have engaged us to provide legal advice to them in their personal capacity;
• ‘Instructing officers’ includes natural persons who have instructed us on behalf of a company, partnership, trust, estate, agency, department, corporate body of any description or any other group or organisation;
• ‘Subscribers’ includes natural persons that have signed up to one of our newsletters or bulletins, have attended or registered to attend one of our events or follow us on social media; and
• ‘Interested parties’ includes visitors accompanying clients or instructing officers to our premises, beneficiaries to a will or trust about which we are advising a client and dependants relevant to family law matters.

This policy applies to the personal information of past and present clients, instructing officers,  subscribers and interested parties. Please note that you may fall in to more than one of these categories so we may hold your personal information in a number of capacities.

If you are a past or present employee, member or consultant of the Firm, we will hold further personal information about you. For further details please contact dataprotection@brabners.com or speak to your line manager or supervisor.

This policy does not form part of any contract that you may have with the Firm. It is provided for information purposes only.
