  • Consent. We may disclose personal information in accordance with any consent you provide.
  • Government agencies, regulators, and professional advisors. We may disclose personal information or any information collected through this Site or Services if we are required to do so by law or pursuant to legal process, in response to a request from government officials or law enforcement authorities, as necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of illegal activity, to comply with our legal obligations, and defend our legal interests.

We may disclose or transfer personal information or any information collected through the Site or Services to third parties who acquire all or a portion of our business, whether such acquisition is by way of merger, consolidation, or purchase of all or a portion of our assets, or in connection with any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding brought by or against us.
  • Social Media Platforms and Networks: Our Site may have features such as, plugins, widgets, or and other tools made available by third parties that may result in information being collected or disclosed between us and the third party.  The third party’s use of your information is not governed by this Privacy Policy.

V. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

DiPasquale Moore and our third-party providers set and use cookies and similar tracking technologies (collectively “Cookies”) on the Site to store and manage user preferences, enable content, and gather analytic and usage data.  This Cookies Policy provides information about how we use Cookies, and how you can control and manage them. 

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on a computer or other device and is used to identify the user or device and to collect information.  Cookies are typically assigned to one of three categories, depending on their function and intended purpose: Essential Cookies, Analytics Cookies, and Advertising Cookies. We use the following types of cookies on the Site:

Cookie TypeDescription
Essential CookiesThese are cookies that the Site needs in order to function, and that enable you to move around and use the Site and features. Without these essential cookies, the Site will not perform as smoothly for you as we would like it to and we may not be able to provide the Site or certain services or features you request.
Analytics CookiesAnalytics cookies allow us to understand more about how many visitors we have to our Site, how many times they visit us, and how many times a user viewed specific pages within our Site. Although analytics cookies allow us to gather specific information about the pages that you visit and whether you have visited our Site multiple times, we cannot use them to find out details such as your name or address. We use Google Analytics. For more information about Google Analytics, please refer to “How Google Uses Information From Sites or Apps that Use Our Services,” which can be found at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, or any other URL Google may provide from time to time. To access and use the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
Advertising CookiesDepending on your location and in certain circumstances, DiPasquale Moore may work with third-party online or mobile advertising providers that use cookies to help us manage our online and mobile advertising. We (or an advertising provider acting on our behalf) may place these cookies on your computer or device to display our ads on these providers’ platforms. The information collected from these cookies may also allow us to analyze the effectiveness of our advertising.

You can manage Cookies in your web browser (for example, Edge, Explorer, Chrome, Safari, etc.) settings, and you always have the choice to change these settings by accepting, rejecting, or deleting cookies.  If you choose to change your settings, you may find that certain functions and features will not work as intended on the services.  Cookie settings are slightly different depending on the browser used, so to manage Cookies, you should refer to the program documentation and the relevant settings within your particular browser.

We understand that you may want to know more about Cookies.  Here are some useful resources that provide detailed information about types of Cookies, how they are used, and how you can manage your Cookie preferences: www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.

Some web browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar feature that signals to websites that a visitor does not want to have his/her online activity and behavior tracked. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and there is currently no industry consensus for how to recognize or respond to a DNT signal. For these reasons, DiPasquale Moore does not currently respond to DNT signals.

VI. California Shine the Light Law

Residents of the State of California may ask us to provide them with a list of the types of personal information that we have disclosed during the preceding year to third parties for their direct marketing purposes, and the identity of those third parties. If you are a California resident and would like such a list, please contact us at the email address provided below. For all such requests, please indicate “CA Shine the Light” in the subject field of your request. You must also include your full name, email address, street address, city, state, and zip code.

VII. Information Storage and Security

We employ reasonable security precautions to help protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of personal information provided on or through the Site.  However, no method of transmitting or storing data is completely secure.  As a result, although we strive to protect personal information about you, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us through or in connection with the Site.  If you have reason to believe that personal information is no longer secure, please notify us immediately by contacting us in accordance with the last section below.  In the event of a breach that we are required by law to inform you of, we may notify you electronically, in writing, or by telephone, if permitted to do so by law.

VIII. Data Retention

We retain information about you and your use of our Site for as long as is needed to fulfill our legitimate business purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.  The specific periods for which we keep information about you vary depending on the nature of the information, why we need it, and whether the personal information is de-identified. We also consider the minimum necessary retention period prescribed by applicable laws, recommended by industry standards, and stated in contracts and other legal obligations.

IX. Children’s Privacy

Our Site and Services are not intended for persons under 13 years of age.  If we learn that we have collected personal information from persons under 13 through our Site or Services, we will take appropriate steps to delete this information.   

The Site may contain links to various websites that we do not control.  When you click on one of these links, you will no longer be transacting business through the Site.  Third party websites maintain their own privacy policies, and we do not exercise any control over any of the third party websites that may be linked to the Site.  If you visit a website that is linked to the Site, you should consult that website’s privacy policy before providing any personal information.  Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other websites, and we are not liable for their misuse of personal information about you.

XI. Updates to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices, technology, legal requirements, and other factors.  When changes are made to this Privacy Policy, they will become effective immediately upon posting.  We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for the latest information on our information processing practices.  To the extent that our Privacy Policy changes in a material way, the Privacy Policy that was in place at the time that you submitted personal information to us will generally govern that information unless we receive your consent (express or implied) to the new Privacy Policy where and as required by applicable law.
