We may hire third parties to help us collect and analyse such data, and we may share such statistical data with third parties. Again, such statistical data will not specifically identify you or any other User. We use this information to help us make our Internet site more useful to visitors – to learn about the number of visitors to our Internet site, what part of the Internet site they are interested in, how long the use the Internet site, the number and size of any downloads, and the types of technology our visitors use.

2. If it is required for any legal proceeding;
3. To prove or protect our legal rights; and

If you follow hyperlinks from our Site to another Site, please note that we are not responsible for and have no control over their privacy policies and practices.
How Long We Store Personal Data
Law & Legal Pty Ltd retains the personal information collected on its Sites only as long as necessary to provide the services, products, subscriptions and information you request or as permitted by applicable law. Any information that is not or is no longer required to facilitate your relationship, transactions or record with Law & Legal Pty Ltd or is required by applicable law will be safely destroyed. You will be notified if your data is kept for longer than this period.
How We Protect Your Personal Data
Personal data shall be subject to additional safeguards to ensure this data is processed securely. For example, we work hard to ensure data is encrypted when in transit and storage, and access to this data will be strictly limited to a minimum number of individuals and subject to confidentiality commitments.
We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Policy. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to any of our websites; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access. When possible, encryption is used, both in transit and storage. Access controls within the organisation limit who may access information.
Our website(s) is hosted on Amazon Web Servers ("AWS"), so we rely in part on these third parties to protect the data you provide through it. When you pay us, third party payment processors collect your data and process the payment, and interact with your bank, digital wallet or credit card issuer. At any moment, you can change or delete that data. If you ask for your preferences to change or for data to be deleted, we keep a record that we deleted your data, e.g. (in an analogue way) "john@example.org has unsubscribed from our notifications and removed his country of residence."
We never transfer your data outside of the United Kingdom ("UK") or European Economic Area ("EEA") unless we have your explicit consent for it, or on the basis of specific safeguards in individual circumstances of which we’ll let you know if they apply to your data.
While we take all reasonable precautions to ensure that user data is secure and that users are protected, there always remains the risk of harm. The Internet as a whole can be insecure at times and therefore we are unable to guarantee the security of user data beyond what is reasonably practical.

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights:
1. Right to be informed;
2. Right of access;
3. Right to rectification;
4. Right to erasure;

7. Right to object.
You may have additional rights to privacy under your own jurisdiction’s laws which this privacy policy cannot change.
