The purpose of this site is to provide general information about VL to clients,  potential clients and people considering a career at VL. This site is not intended to provide and should not be construed as legal advice for any purpose. The presentation of information on the site or through electronic communication, or the receipt of it, or the sending of an electronic communication, or inquiry through the site, will not create an attorney/client relationship with VL or any lawyer at VL; provided, however, that if you are an existing client of VL and you send an electronic mail to VL pertaining to a matter in which VL then represents you, such electronic mail may be entitled to be treated as confidential or privileged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge that electronic mail and the internet are generally insecure media of communication, and VL cannot guarantee the confidentiality of any electronic mail sent to or received by VL, or guarantee any risk with your email address, or any information submitted by you to VL through the site.

Information provided on this site may not constitute the most current or complete information with respect to legal topics or developments. Accordingly, a recipient of information from this site should not take, or refrain from taking, any action based on information on this site without first seeking legal advice from competent counsel in the relevant jurisdiction. Under the rules or regulations of some jurisdictions, this material may constitute advertising. VL expressly disclaims all liability based on any information contained on this site.

VL may hyperlink to or otherwise make third-party information available on the site. This is done solely for the purposes of convenience. VL is not responsible for and does not endorse or approve of any such third party or their content that may be accessed or available through this site, nor is VL responsible for the practices, including as to data privacy, of any third-party sites accessible through this site.

VL maintains its offices in Philadelphia, PA. The jurisdictions in which its lawyers are licensed, admitted or otherwise authorized to practice are indicated in the “about” section of this site. 

PRIVACY POLICY

With respect to information submitted or collected on the site, you accept VL’s privacy policy as set forth in this section. This section does not pertain to, and VL is not responsible for the privacy practices of, any third party websites to which the site hyperlinks. Certain areas of the site may be subject to additional privacy-related provisions, links to which will be posted in those areas.

When you use the site, which may be hosted in part or its entirety by a third party, the site may collect information indirectly and automatically (through, for example, the use of “cookies” or your “ip address” each as further explained herein) about your activities. VL uses this activity information (the “activity information”) for internal purposes such as to administer the site, improve the site, and help VL understand how the site is being used including the demographics and “clickstreams” of its visitors. “cookies” are small pieces of information stored on your hard drive, not on the site. You are always free to decline cookies if your browser permits, but in that case, some portions of the site may not operate properly. An “Ip address” is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the internet.

The site is designed so that you may generally browse it without providing any “personally identifiable information” (or “PII” defined below). certain areas of the site, however, may require or allow the voluntary submission of PII (for example, submission of PII in a contact form). VL uses your PII for the purposes for which it was submitted by you to VL and for VL to send you information or communications that may be of interest to you. Except as otherwise set forth in this section, VL does not share your PII with third parties. “Personally identifiable information” (or “PII”) means information that would allow someone to identify or contact you, such as your name, physical or electronic mail address, and telephone number; provided, however, that PII does not include aggregated information that, by itself, does not permit the identification of individual persons and does not include the activity information.

VL will use responsible efforts to remove your PII from our then current site at any time upon your written request by contacting us through this site. Such removal of PII will not ensure the permanent removal of such PII from the site. For example, such PII may remain in VL’s archival or backup copies of the site.

VL may share PII with third parties, including affiliated firms and third parties performing services for or on behalf of VL. Such services may include communications, database, event management, hosting, mailing, and marketing services. VL cannot fully ensure that your PII will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, VL may be legally obligated to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may circumvent VL’s security measures to unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or an error may occur in the administration of the site. In the unlikely event that VL needs to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, VL may, and you authorize VL to, disclose any information about you to government officials as permitted by applicable law.

VL has implemented and follows appropriate technical measures to protect against the risks of unauthorized access to, erroneous disclosure of, and unlawful interception of PII. you should know, however, that VL cannot fully eliminate such risks. VL hopes this section clarifies VL’s procedures regarding its collection, if any, use, and disclosure of your information including PII.
