Privacy Policy

nNovation LLP collects, uses and discloses personal information in the course of providing services. If you have any questions with respect to any of this, please contact nNovation LLP at the contact information provided on the top of this webpage.

Mostly, personal information is collected directly from clients. However, people who are not clients may also have their information collected by nNovation LLP. In most situations, the individuals will know about the collection, use and disclosure of their personal information and will have the opportunity to withdraw their consent. In situations where there is no consent or no opportunity to withdraw consent, nNovation LLP will only continue its collection, use or disclosure of the information if it is permitted or required by law.

The types of personal information potentially collected, used and disclosed are varied. However, except as described below, only that information necessary for the provision of services by nNovation LLP will be collected, used or disclosed. Some examples of the personal information involved are a client's and/or opposing parties' identification information; financial information; health information; professional and academic information. Each case or matter in which nNovation LLP is engaged will involve different types of information depending on the issue being looked at, or resolved, by nNovation LLP. What will remain constant, however, is that nNovation LLP will limit its collection, use and disclosure of personal information to that which is necessary for it to work on the case or matter. So, for example, if the matter involves a challenge to a government decision to deny access to personal information, nNovation LLP will need to know information such as:

• what information the person was looking for, and
• why the information was not released.

What nNovation LLP would not need to collect, use or disclose would be, for example, the colour of the person's hair or how many times per year they visit the dentist - information that has no bearing on the case or matter involved.

Sometimes nNovation LLP will engage the services of other organizations to help resolve matters. For example, a mediator could be hired to settle a dispute between a client and an opposing party. In situations where a third party will be involved, the sharing of personal information will be done with the consent of the people involved or, if there is no consent and the collection or sharing must take place regardless, it will only be done if it is otherwise permitted by law.

nNovation LLP also will use personal information of people who agree to have their information used for the purpose of marketing the law firm. When agreeing to this, these individuals will be notified of the type of marketing activities being contemplated. For the most part, and by way of example, this would mean that the individual would consent to receiving occasional telephone calls or emails from nNovation LLP.

Lastly, nNovation LLP will keep any personal information in its care safe, secure and accessible to the person about whom the information belongs (save for when the law allows for the information not to be accessible). Most personal information used in resolving cases will be kept for 6 years. Other personal information used for the purpose of marketing will be kept until the individual informs nNovation LLP to cease using the information. If individuals wish to access their information, they simply have to contact nNovation LLP by any of the contact means described at the top of the webpage.
