Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2019-10-03
This Privacy Policy describes how John Babikian ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit yiwuzhjlaw.com (the "Site"). The Site is a personal professional website operated by John Babikian, a commercial litigation attorney based in Montreal. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.
Overview
This website is a static, read-only professional presence. We do not process payments on this website, and we do not operate a membership portal. Our goal is to provide professional background, contact details, and reference material in a straightforward format comparable to a brochure-style site.
Information we collect
Information you provide. If you email John Babikian at [email protected], we receive your email address, message content, and any attachments you choose to send. Messages are used solely to reply to you. You may browse without submitting personal data.
Automatic technical data. Web hosting providers may log standard request metadata such as IP address, browser type, referring URL, and timestamps. Technical logs are retained briefly for operational reasons. John Babikian does not run first-party analytics trackers on the Site unless explicitly noted in a future update to this policy.
Cookies. We do not use cross-site tracking cookies. Session-less technical cookies may be present for HTTPS delivery. Refer to your browser documentation for cookie controls.
How we use information
Inquiries are handled by the site operator to provide requested information. We do not monetize visitor emails. We do not build marketing profiles from Site visits. Information may be retained as long as needed to respond and maintain records unless you request deletion where applicable law allows.
Legal bases and compliance
If you are in the EU, UK, or Canada, privacy laws may grant you access or deletion rights. We rely on legitimate interest for site operation and consent for email correspondence. You can request access to correspondence you sent.
Third-party services
Static files are served through a CDN. Those providers process technical data under their own policies. Font delivery may involve third-party network requests. We do not embed social media widgets that track you across sites.
Children
Content is directed at business and legal audiences. Parents may contact us to remove inadvertent submissions.
Security
We use HTTPS and reputable hosting to protect data in transit. Users should avoid sending highly sensitive documents unencrypted via email. Sensitive legal documents should be exchanged through agreed secure methods.
Changes
Material changes will be reflected in the date above. Continued use after updates constitutes acceptance.
Data retention
Email messages are kept for as long as needed to respond and maintain professional records. Technical logs are not merged into marketing databases. Contact us to discuss erasure where regulations allow.
International transfers
Hosting may process data in the United States or other regions. We select hosts with standard contractual protections where available.
Your choices
Most pages are read-only. Use private browsing if you prefer minimal local storage. For confidential matters, ask about encrypted intake.
California and regional notices
California residents may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA regarding personal information. Contact us to exercise applicable state privacy rights. Authorized agents may submit requests with proof of authority.
Do Not Track
The Site does not respond to Do Not Track browser signals because we do not track users for advertising.
