Privacy Policy

Every computer connected to the Internet is provided with a domain name (e.g. yourdomain.com) and an IP Address (e.g. 112.134.21.1). When a visitor requests a page from within the Swanson Klein Law, PLLC site, our Web Servers automatically identify and log the HTTP request that is made to our Web Server. This information reveals nothing personal about you. In fact, the only information that we automatically gather and log is as follows:

1. The IP Address of the Site that may have Referred you.
2. Your IP Address.
3. The Web Page that you may have linked to us from, if any.
4. The Product Identifier for Version and Make of Browser (e.g. Internet Explorer 9.0)
5. The Operating System platform that you may be running (e.g. Macintosh or Windows)
6. Search Words or Terms that are passed from a Search Engine (e.g. Google, Yahoo, or Bing)
7. There is absolutely nothing special about the information just described, and the practice of collecting this data has been generally standardized by virtually every Web Server on the Internet today.

The purpose for this information is actually two-fold. One, Swanson Klein Law, PLLC has found it advantageous to examine visitor traffic in its aggregate, so that we can ensure maximum compatibility for the various Browsers and Operating Systems that visit our site. Additionally, as any business should attest, it is our desire to generate greater amounts of visitor traffic. By analyzing visitation patterns, referring URLs and Search Engine terms, we can strategically enhance our exposure on the Internet.

A cookie cannot read data from your hard disk or read cookie files that may have been created from other sites. The Swanson Klein Law, PLLC website utilizes cookies as a means of providing personalisation features to our visitors. For example, we utilize cookies to remember settings (background music selections, wallpapers preferences, etc.) that you may have made at our website.

You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your browser. Typically, by accessing the browser’s help feature you can obtain information on how to prevent your browser from accepting all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our website and other websites may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.

We may also request your e-mail address or mailing address for the purposes of conducting a survey, adding you to our mailing list, or by your request to have someone contact you for additional information. Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested.
