Legal Floris LLC is incorporated in Delaware, USA, under registration number 5783431. We take local and international law serious. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 takes effect on the 25th of May 2018 and Legal Floris LLC applies the GDPR in all online and offline communication with visitors of our website(s). Customer and data protection is under the GDPR divided into seven different chapters; terms and conditions, privacy statement and policy, cookies, right to be forgotten, data access, data breach, and data rectification.
This updated data protection policy takes effect on the 25th of May 2018
Terms and conditions
Legal Floris LLC offers recovery services. There cannot be any misunderstanding; the firm is not licensed with a BAR association and due to the international and cross-border nature of the firms’ work, we cannot represent clients in courts. Fortunately, fund recovery services are settled out of court and follow a strict protocol. The implementation of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Scheme (BRRD) within the European Union provides customers of a failed bank with a clear and strong regulatory framework that aims to safeguard customer deposits.
A fund recovery procedure follows a strict schedule that gives depositors access to their funds. Legal Floris LLC aims to craft an efficient and effective recovery plan that limits further damages and enables depositors to go through a full claim filing procedure in just a matter of days. Since we value our work and believe in what we do, all fees for our services are contractually agreed and paid afterwards. This means that Legal Floris LLC takes the risk of delivering work before a payment is made. This also means that we reserve the right to reject potential customers and don’t do business with everyone.
Privacy statement and policy
We do not collect personally identifiable information about you – such as your name, address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address, etc. – unless you choose to fill out a ‘Contact’ form, found on many of the pages of the site, and specifically on the pages FBME Customers receive up to 100.000 Euro, FBME Bank Cyprus fund recovery and latest news for FBME Bank customers.
We do automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit our site – such as the type of browser you are using, the type of operating system you are using, and the domain name of your internet service provider.
We use the non-personally identifiable information to analyze site usage (such as aggregated information on the pages visited by our users), which allows us to improve the design and content of our site.
In the ordinary course, we use the personally identifiable information you provide solely to respond to your inquiry or process an application form you have completed on various sections of our Web site.
We will not contact you about other matters, unless you specifically request it, nor will we share, rent, or sell your personally identifiable information outside our firm, except where we are required to share your information with any third parties who provide services on our behalf.
However, it is possible, though unlikely, that we might be forced to disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, for example, in response to a court order, subpoena or a law enforcement agency’s request.
Also, we cannot guarantee the privacy of personal information you transmit over the web or that may be collectible in transit by others, including contractors who provide services to us.
Our site contains links to other sites, like central banks and FBME Bank in particular, whose information practices may be different than ours. Visitors should consult the other sites’ privacy notices as we have no control over information that is submitted to, or collected by, these third parties.
IT environment
Prospects and customers of Legal Floris LLC come from all parts of the world. In our effort to offer easy accessibility we use restricted software programs, such as Outlook, Skype, Whatsapp, and Signal. These programs operate behind a firewall and are only available on one computer/cell phone without additional applications or ‘apps’ to avoid contagion or data sharing with other applications. We remove messages and personal data of prospects from our files within a 30-day period after the last contact unless the information we have received is part of a criminal investigation by law enforcement.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. A cookie is a text-only string of information that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer’s hard disk so that the website can remember who you are. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site and services.
We may use cookies in the following ways:
- Where they are essential to make our site work.
- To enable the features on our site (which give you the ability to recall recently viewed pages and see information which you have input on line).
- To compile anonymous, aggregated statistics that allow us to understand how users use our site and to help us improve the structure of our site. We cannot identify you personally in this way.
Disabling/enabling cookies
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying the settings in your browser. However, you may not be able to use all the interactive features of our site if cookies are disabled.
Right to be forgotten
Customer information and transactional evidence are required to achieve maximum results. When potential clients want to protect their privacy or have other reasons to get their personal and/or corporate information removed from our databases, they can send an email to [email protected]. The right to be forgotten does not substitute the required reporting under CRS/FATCA or data breach policies.
Data access
Legal Floris LLC does not track website visitors for marketing purposes. Prospects who leave their contact information via one of the contact forms on the website or request a callback are contacted. An agreement between Legal Floris LLC and a prospect is completed in a contract. If no business relationship is formed, input to the contact form is removed from our files within a period of 30 days. This includes all documentation that was forwarded by a prospect.
Data breach
Under the GDPR, Legal Floris LLC reports abuse and personal data breaches to the relevant authorities within 72 hours after we become aware of the breach. Upon the request of authorities, we provide requested information after receipt of a subpoena or are served with a summons.
When data breach involves third parties, and the individual’s rights and freedoms are adversely affected, the individuals involved are informed as well. The data breach also involves impersonation and the abuse of the identity of a third party.
The processes in place to detect data breach and criminal activities emanate from various EU laws and regulation, as well as US law. Legal Floris LLC keeps a private record of data breaches.
Data rectification
Prospects and individuals who believe they submitted incorrect information in the past are invited to contact us and change the particulars of their file.
We reserve the right to revise this policy or any part of it from time to time.
Please review the policy periodically for changes.
