Privacy Policy

What we collect

When you contact the firm through this website, the firm collects the details you choose to provide: your name, email address and telephone number, the information you give about your matter, and any documents you upload, such as a résumé or covering letter submitted through the careers forms.

The website may also record limited technical information, such as your browser type and general usage, to keep the site secure and working properly. The firm does not use this information to identify you personally.

Why we collect it

Personal data is collected and processed only for specified purposes: to respond to your enquiry, to provide legal services where you engage the firm, and to consider applications for employment or internships. It is processed on the basis of your consent and for these stated purposes, and not for any unrelated purpose.

Consent

You provide your personal data voluntarily and with your consent. That consent is yours to withdraw at any time by contacting the firm, after which the firm will stop processing your data for the relevant purpose, subject to any legal or professional obligation to retain it.

How it is used and shared

Your personal data is used only for the purposes described above. The firm does not sell personal data. It is shared only where necessary to provide the service you have asked for, or where the firm is required to disclose it by law or by an order of a court or authority.

Communications with the firm for the purpose of seeking or receiving legal advice are, in addition, protected by professional privilege and confidentiality.

Retention

Personal data is kept only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as the firm is required to keep it under the law or its professional obligations, after which it is deleted or anonymised.

Security

The firm takes reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss or misuse. No system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and you should avoid sending highly sensitive information through the website until an engagement is in place.

Your rights

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 you have the right to access a summary of the personal data the firm holds about you and how it is processed, to seek correction or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data, and to seek the erasure of your data where it is no longer needed. You may also nominate another person to exercise these rights in the event of your death or incapacity.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact the firm using the details on the contact page. If your concern is not resolved, you have the right to complain to the Data Protection Board of India.

The firm may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in the law or in its practices. The current version, with its date, will always be available on this page.
