Privacy Policy
Commitment & Protection of Non-Public Personal Financial Information:
Excel Law Firm (“Excel”) respects the right to privacy of all our applicants, current and former customers, and is committed to providing the highest level of security concerning the collection, use, and sharing of your personal information, including through Excel.Law (the “Website”). Excel wants you to know how we will ensure our ongoing responsibility to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal non-public information. We want you to have the information you need to make an informed decision about sharing your information with us. This Privacy Policy explains our information collection and sharing practices, as well as the choices you can make to limit our sharing of your information.
Types of Non-Public Personal Financial Information Collected and its Sources, Use and Retention:
Excel collects your personal non-public information in multiple ways: directly from you via our applications and forms; when you contact us via email or by telephone; from our third-party marketing affiliates and lead referral companies; from your creditors’; and other finance, banking, and credit reporting agencies. We may collect certain additional information about you from the websites of other companies with whom we have relationships, and your internet usage if you visit our website. The types of information we collect includes, but is not limited to, the following: your name, address, and telephone number; information about your creditors; account balances, transaction history, payment history, and other information contained in your credit card statements; and other debt information obtained from collection agencies and consumer reports.
Excel has designed its processes concerning the collection of your personal information around protecting access to it. Excel limits our use and retention of acquired non-public personal financial information to what we believe is necessary to administer our business, to communicate with you, to detect and prevent fraud, and to assist us in providing you with our highest quality of service and products that you need and that may be of benefit or interest to you. In addition, we may use your personal information to tailor, refine, and improve our products and services. We may also use your personal information in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.
Security Procedures to Protect Non-Public Personal Financial Information:
Excel maintains physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards for your non-public personal information against unauthorized access or use. Within Excel your non-public personal information is restricted to employees who have a legitimate business need to access it including those who service your account or provide other services to you. Excel employees are educated about the importance of maintaining the security of your personal information and are subject to a corporate code of ethics and policies that require it to be secure. You can aid us in maintaining the security of your personal information by not sharing it with anyone, and by limiting the transmission of personal information over such insecure methods as the internet or email. No such method of transmission can ever be 100% secure.
Sharing Information within Excel Law Firm Companies:
Excel may disclose information that properly identifies you, such as your name, address, social security number, email address, and other personal financial account information that we acquired about you. Specifically, Excel may share your non-public personal information with its owned and affiliated companies (“Affiliates”), marketing service providers, creditors, and those third-party companies with whom Excel has established a business relationship that will enable us to carry out contracted services for you and/or offer additional beneficial services or products to you to the extent permitted by law. Excel holds its Affiliates to the same stringent policies and high standards concerning the security of your personal information as Excel itself.
Sharing Information with Third Parties:
In addition to our Affiliates and the businesses and marketing service providers that are described above, Excel reserves the right to disclose nonpublic personal information about you at its sole discretion, as permitted or required by law, in order to help us carry out our obligations to you, provide products and services that you might otherwise not be informed about, and to any third party with whom you specifically authorize us to share the information. We maintain strict procedures and protocols that dictate the circumstances around which we will provide information to your creditors when they call us, including requiring that the creditor confirm your name and the last four digits of your social security number. Under no circumstances, however, will we disclose your telephone number to one of your creditors. We will release your personal information if required by law, for example, if we receive a subpoena or otherwise believe in good faith that the law requires us to release your information. If Excel sells any part of its business, Excel may transfer your information to its successor, regardless of your opt-out status.
