What personal data we collect?
We collect and process information provided to us by or on behalf of our clients and their respective executives, agents, consultants and staff for the purpose of rendering legal services. This collection and processing of personal data is justified by the scope of our function and is based on our legal and contractual obligations as a law firm providing professional legal services, always in accordance with our commitment to inviolable trust towards our clients.
Nasioudis Law Firm is primarily engaged by corporate entities and as such those legal entities are not data subjects. However, even within that context, personal data may be provided to us (e.g. personal information relating to any of our corporate clients’ or prospective clients’ officers or personnel, opponent or vendor or purchaser or personal information relating to their legal or other advisors or personnel, as the case may be). The personal data collected is not limited only to the kind of information that can be found on a business card, such as names, titles/position, company name, work addresses, e-mail addresses and phone numbers, but may include other identifiable information. In case an entity provides us with data of their personnel, it warrants that it has informed them of the processing of their personal data by our law firm pursuant to applicable legislation, where necessary.
We further collect background information and personal data necessary not only to fulfil our statutory obligations in relation to conflict checks, anti-money laundering, know our clients procedures but also to prepare for legal proceedings or defend a claim or render the required legal services to our clients. To such effect, and subject to the nature of the legal services, we may collect and process personal data of third parties that are relevant to the legal services and to the case we are handling (court officers, witnesses, and other individuals involved), in accordance with ethical standards and rules applicable to our profession, such as the Lawyer’s Code of Conduct.
