Privacy Statement
LT Online intends for LAWTRAC.com to complement the services that the company provides. This statement, set forth below, is our privacy statement for all of our professional services.
Here we describe the practices we follow to respect the privacy of all visitors to this site. At LT Online, we have focused on implementing fair information practices that are designed to protect your privacy. We believe that everyone benefits from the free flow of information when that information is gathered and used responsibly.
If you have questions or you do not feel that your concerns have been addressed in our privacy statement, contact us.
Collection, use, disclosure, choice
Registration is not required for you to use our site. If you are merely a visitor to LAWTRAC.com, we do not collect any personal information about you, except to the limited extent through the use of cookies, which are described below. However, there may be circumstances in which you choose to register to ongoing updates from LT Online.
In these cases, LT Online may contact registrants to invite them to special events, provide them with information about our services, publications and products, or for other marketing purposes.
Information collected at registration is protected using industry-standard encryption technology as it is sent over the Internet. For example, you may choose to register for:
-
Email alerts
LT Online offers an email alert service to site visitors, in which we send subscribers email updates when new information is added to LAWTRAC.com. If you decide to subscribe, we will collect basic contact information about you, such as your name and email address. -
Expressing an interest in working for LT Online
The LT Online Web site enables you to register your interest in working for us or applying for an advertised vacancy. For more detail about the recruitment process and the information required, visit the careers section of LAWTRAC.com. -
Thought Webcasts
Registration may be required before viewing an LT Online webcast (live or archived). When you register, you may be asked to provide your name, email and mailing addresses, country, industry, company, position and phone number. At the time of registration, you may also be asked whether or not you are a client of LT Online, and whether or not you would like to be informed of upcoming webcasts via email alerts. All information is required in order to view any webcast. At the time of registration, you can check a box to automate the log—in process, which allows you to be automatically logged on upon your return to the LT Online webcast section when using the same computer. We use registration information for internal research and analysis purposes to help us understand who is viewing our webcasts, and become better equipped to serve your needs.
If you are interested in webcasts, but you do not wish to provide any personally identifiable information, you can read the executive summaries ("webcast recaps") posted on LAWTRAC.com or at LAWTRAC.WebEx.com, which require no registration. -
Surveys
LT Online may conduct surveys via its web site (www.surveys—census.com). Survey participants may be asked for personal information (name, contact information, etc.) in addition to opinions or feedback. The type of information collected in surveys will vary. -
Training registration
LT Online occasionally requires registration in exchange for our application training: white papers, articles, studies, reports, survey analyses, booklets, etc. Personal information may be asked for on registration forms and the type of information collected may vary. LT Online reserves the right to distribute certain thought leadership materials only to those who supply the requested information. -
Event registration
LT Online facilitates event registration via its own web site or, at times, via third party web sites.

Cookies
The LT Online LAWTRAC.com web site, the LAWTRAC Online family of products and/or any of its governed sections may use cookies. A "cookie" is technology that allows our site to store tokens of information (an 'identifier') in your browser used only by our site while you are on our site or using the product.

LT Online occasionally advertises on third party web sites. As part of our effort to track the success of our advertising campaigns, we may at times use a technology called "web beacons," or "action tags," which count visitors who have come to LAWTRAC.com after being exposed to an LT Online ad on a third party site. We do not use this technology to access your personal information; it is only used to compile aggregated statistics about visitors who come to LAWTRAC.com and to gauge the effectiveness of our ads.
