Processing of personal for the provision of legal services

 

We process the personal data of our clients (their representatives, employees) for the purpose of providing legal services. Such data is processed for the purpose of concluding or executing contracts with our clients and for complying with the legal requirements applicable to RESPONSE, including anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing requirements.

 

The personal data of RESPONSE clients (their representatives, employees, processed for this purpose, might be:

  • basic personal data (name, surname, personal identification number, date of birth, etc.);
  • contact data (residence address, e-mail address, phone number, etc.);
  • financial data (information about the ownership or source of funds or income, transactional data and their amounts, etc.) and other financial information that may be processed in accordance with anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing requirements applied for us;
  • data, obtained from various state registers and other legitimate sources;
  • other data, you provide during the conclusion or performance of mutual contracts and data necessary for the provision of our services.

 

We may also process other natural persons’ data (e.g., personal data relating to another party in court proceedings) in the course of providing legal services. We process such data in accordance with Republic of Lithuania Law on the Bar as well as other legal acts regulating the provision of legal services.

 

In all cases RESPONSE processes personal data of their clients (their representatives, employees) or other persons only to the extent that this is necessary for ensuring proper provision of legal services and execution of legal obligations.

 

Personal data of clients (their representatives, employees) is typically retained for 10 years from the execution of contract, unless applicable legal regulations impose a longer period for the retention of relevant personal data.

 

Processing of personal data upon your request

 

When you contact us by email, phone or in any other way, RESPONSE will process the personal data you have submitted. The purpose of processing personal data is to manage the requests we receive, as well as to protect our (or other persons’) rights and legitimate interests. The basis for processing such data is RESPONSE’s legitimate interest.

 

Please comply to at least the minimum requirements for the protection of your personal data, i.e. do not provide excess personal data that is not necessary for the purpose sought. Also, please provide only as much personal data as it is necessary for attaining the purpose for which the request or letter is submitted.

 

The personal data submitted by you with your requests may be stored for up to 3 years. However, this retention period may also depend on the content, nature of the personal data submitted to RESPONSE and other circumstances. Given the need to protect RESPONSE (or other persons’) rights and legitimate interests, as well as in other cases indicated in legal acts, your personal data may be stored for a longer period.
