What personal information do we collect and how do we use it?

Our primary goal in collecting personal information from you may be to: (i) verify your identity; (ii) help us deliver our Services; (iii) improve, develop and market new Services; (iv) carry out requests made by you on the Site or in relation to our Services; (v) investigate or settle inquiries or disputes; (vi) comply with any applicable law, court order, other judicial process, or the requirements of a regulator; (vii) enforce our agreements with you; (viii) protect the rights, property or safety of us or third parties, including our other clients and users of the Site or our Services; (ix) provide support for the provision of our Services; (x) recruitment purposes; (xi) conduct research and draw up reports; and (xii) use as otherwise required or permitted by law.

To undertake these goals we may process the following personal information:

If you are a visitor to the Site:

  • Name and job title.
  • Contact information including email address.
  • Demographic information such as postcode, preferences and interests.
  • Other information relevant to provision of Services.

If you are an individual client in receipt of our Services or prospective individual client:

  • Name and job title.
  • Contact information including email address.
  • Payment information.
  • Other information relevant to provision of Services.
  • Information that you provide to us as part of our providing the Services to you which depends on the nature of your instruction to Lewis Silkin (e.g. if it is for a property transaction there may be limited personal information that you provide to us; but if it is for an employment or immigration matter you might provide us with a significant volume of personal information (including personal information about other persons relevant to the matter in question)). Please note this list of potential matters for instruction of Lewis Silkin and the resultant processing of personal information is non-exhaustive.
  • Relevant information as required by regulatory Know Your Client and or Anti Money Laundering regulations. This may possibly include evidence of source of funds, at the outset of and possibly from time to time throughout our relationship with clients, which we may request and/or obtain from third party sources. The sources for such verification may comprise documentation which we request from the prospective client or through the use of online sources or both. As part of our obligation to comply with applicable anti-money laundering legislation, we may disclose your information to a credit reference agency for the purposes of assessing risk and detecting money laundering or fraud. Such a search may be kept on record by the credit reference agency and disclosed to other parties, however any such searches will be recorded as a soft footprint and will not affect your credit report.

Primarily Lewis Silkin is engaged by corporate instructors (i.e. other corporate entities) and as such those instructors are not data subjects. However as part of such instructions personal information about other persons may be provided to us (e.g. personal information relating to, without limitation, any of our corporate clients’ or prospective clients’ workers, any opponent or vendor or purchaser personal information including personal information relating to their legal advisors or workers as relevant or similar).

If you are an individual whose personal information may be processed by us as a result of providing the Services to others (including individual clients and corporate clients) we will process a variety of different personal information depending on the Services provided in question.

This may include personal information relating, without limitation, to any of our corporate clients’ or prospective clients’ workers, any opponent or vendor or purchaser personal information including personal information relating to their legal advisors or workers as relevant or similar.

This is a non-exhaustive list which is reflective of the varied nature of the personal information processed as part of a law firm providing legal services:

  • For instance, if we are providing employment advice to a corporate client we may be provided with, and then process, personal information about that corporate client’s employees/workers including but not limited to: their names, their employment status, special data relating to protected characteristics under any discrimination law etc.
  • For instance, if we are providing corporate advice to a corporate client who is targeting the purchase of another company we may be provided with, and then process, personal information about the purchaser’s employees/workers as well as that of the target.
  • For instance, on occasion we are asked to conduct investigations by our clients. These investigations deal with a variety of different matters (including without limitation regulatory and employment related matters) and can be on an open or a without prejudice basis. By necessity personal data is sometimes processed in relation to individuals involved in the investigation.
  • We might also need to process personal information in relation to other third parties instructed either by our own clients or other persons or companies involved with us providing the Services to our client (for instance other law firms, experts etc.).
  • We might also need to process personal information in relation to counterparties or other third parties as part of compliance with our obligations under applicable anti-money laundering regulations. Any such personal information may be disclosed to a credit reference agency for the purposes of assessing risk and detecting money laundering or fraud. Such a search may be kept on record by the credit reference agency and disclosed to other parties, however any such searches will be recorded as a soft footprint and will not affect a credit report result.

Please note also that in the majority of cases we do not have to provide information to you about how we process your personal information when we do so as a result of providing the Services to others. We do so, however, because Lewis Silkin believes in being as transparent as possible about its data privacy practices and wants you to be able to understand how we may process your data (and about how you can exercise your resultant rights).

Please note in relation to processing personal information about our own individual clients and processing personal information about an individual whose personal information may be processed by us as a result of providing the Services to others (including individual clients and corporate clients) (as described above) where information is in the special categories of information, the basis for processing such information is in the majority of cases that it is necessary for the purpose of or in connection with legal proceedings including prospective legal proceedings, obtaining legal advice or otherwise necessary for the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal rights.

If you are a person contacted for the purposes of research:

  • Name and job title
  • Telephone number
  • Other information that may be provided by you in response to a survey, questionnaire, or other research method.

If you are a potential recruit to a Lewis Silkin office:

  • Name and job title.
  • Contact information including email address.
  • Curriculum vitae, your education, employment history and similar matters and similar information that you may provide to us.
  • Other information relevant to potential recruitment to Lewis Silkin LLP.

If you are a visitor to any of our offices :

We have security measures in place at our offices, including CCTV and building access controls. We require visitors to our offices to sign in upon arrival at reception and we keep a record of visitors for a short period of time. Visitor records are stored securely stored and only accessible on a need to know basis (e.g. to investigate an incident). There are signs in our offices which explain that CCTV is in operation. Images captured by CCTV are stored securely and only accessed on a need to know basis (e.g. to investigate an incident). CCTV recordings are typically automatically overwritten after a short period of time unless an incident occurs that requires investigation (e.g. a theft) which may require us to retain them for longer.

As part of our response to the Covid-19 pandemic, we introduced certain prevention measures, pursuant to which health or other data (e.g. temperature testing, information about any recent travel you may have undertaken, or details required for “track and trace” purposes) may be processed. Any such processing will only be undertaken in line with relevant, applicable government guidance and where there is a clear lawful basis to process such data (e.g. legitimate interests, legal obligations and/or public interest).

In particular, we may use your personal information for the following purposes:
