LexisNexis Privacy Statement

Your Privacy is Important to Us

Commitment To Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on LexisNexis Hong Kong home page and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.

Our Web site contains links to other Web sites operated by third parties. LexisNexis Hong Kong is not responsible for the privacy practices or policies of such third party web sites and this Notice does not apply to those Web sites.

Application of This Notice

This Notice applies only to the information collected by LexisNexis Hong Kong from the users of our Web site. It does not apply to information collected by LexisNexis Hong Kong in any other way, including offline.

The Information We Collect

Our Web site is not set up to automatically collect personally identifiable information from each visitor to our Web site. It does recognize the home server of visitors, but not email addresses. For example, we can tell which Internet Service Provider our visitors use, but not the names, addresses or other information about our visitors that would allow us to identify the particular visitors to our Web site.

This information is used only for internal purposes by our technical support staff. Our Web site does track certain information about the visits to our Web site. For example, we compile statistics that show the numbers and frequency of visitors to our Web site and its individual pages. These aggregated statistics are used internally to improve our Web site and for product development and marketing purposes generally. Those aggregated statistics may also be provided to advertisers and other third parties, but again, the statistics contain no personal information and cannot be used to gather such information.

In a few areas on our Web site, we ask you to provide information that will enable us to verify whether you are entitled to access and use certain information, materials and services available from our Web site, or to enable us to enhance your site visit, to assist you with customer service or technical support issues, or to follow up with you after your visit, or to otherwise support your customer relationship with LexisNexis Hong Kong. It is completely optional for you to participate. However, failure to participate may mean that you cannot access and use certain information, materials and services.

For example, we request information from you when you:

1. Log on to certain areas of our Web site, such as the lexis.com®, where you may be prompted to provide us with your LexisNexis® ID number and password as a condition to gaining access to certain information, materials or services
2. Subscribe to a newsletter or desire to be added to our mailing lists for other products or services
3. Place an order
4. Participate in a sweepstakes or other promotional offer
5. Provide feedback in an online survey.

In each of the instances above, we typically ask for your name, email address, phone number, address, law practice information, product preference information, LexisNexis ID number and password, as well as other similar personal information that is needed to register or subscribe you to services or offers. On occasion, we may ask for additional information to enable us to provide you with access to and use of certain information, materials and services. In the case of newsletters or mailing lists, you will be able to 'unsubscribe' to these mailings at any time.

 

How We Use Information: LexisNexis Hong Kong Only Uses Your Personal Information for Specific Purposes

The personal information you provide to us when using our Web site, such as your name, postal or email address or telephone number will be kept confidential and used to support your customer relationship with LexisNexis Hong Kong, and to notify you of special offers, updated information and new products and services from LexisNexis Hong Kong, offers from third parties that we think may be of interest to you, or used by LexisNexis Hong Kong or third parties for the purpose of conducting market research or surveys on behalf of LexisNexis Hong Kong. Agents or contractors of LexisNexis Hong Kong LNG who are given access to your personal information will be required to keep the information confidential and not use it for any other purpose than to carry out the services they are performing for LexisNexis Hong Kong.

LexisNexis Hong Kong may enhance or merge your information collected at its Web site with data from third parties for purposes of marketing products or services to you.

You Can Opt Out of Receiving Further Marketing from LNG at Any Time

We will send you information about our various products and services, or other products and services we feel may be of interest to you. Only LexisNexis Hong Kong (or agents or contractors working on behalf of LexisNexis Hong Kong and under confidentiality agreements) will send you these direct mailings. If you do not want to receive such mailings, simply tell us when you give us your personal information. Or, at any time you can easily opt out of receiving further marketing from LexisNexis Hong Kong by emailing us at marketing.hk@lexisnexis.com
