Introduction

MICHAEL J. CORTES, P.A. (the “Firm”) is committed to protecting your personally identifiable information, and we appreciate you choosing to do business with us. This page describes our privacy policy. By visiting Firm’s website, you accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Personal Information Gathered By Firm

The information we obtain from prospective clients helps us continually improve our services. We receive and store any information you enter on our web site at cortesmediation.com (the “Website”) or give us in any other way. We may use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing our services, improving future services, improving our business, and communicating with you.

We may also receive and store certain types of information when you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we may use “cookies,” to obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses Firm.

Cookies

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that are transferred to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser to enable us to recognize your browser and to provide certain features and improve our business. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.

Information Sharing

We take your privacy very seriously. We never share or sell it to others. We may, however, share certain information only with reputable corporate partners. Examples include but are not limited to, case management software, sending postal mail and e-mail, processing credit card payments, and providing other services to our clients. They have access to only as much personal information as is needed to perform their functions.

We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of the Firm, our employees, our clients, or others. This includes exchanging limited information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Information Security

We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. For example, we reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an invoice payment. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number and other information needed to our merchant services provider for processing.

Links to Other Sites

The Website may include links to other sites. We do not have access to or control over cookies or other features that they may use, and the information practices of these websites are not covered by this Privacy Policy. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices.
