Generally, you may visit this website without revealing any information about yourself. However, there are times when GFM and/or this website may ask for identifiable information from you, such as your name, company, e-mail address, phone number, and address.

This website may place Internet “cookies” on users’ hard drives. Internet cookies can save data about individual users, such as the user’s name, password, user-name, screen preferences, the pages of a website viewed by the user, and the information viewed or clicked by the user.

Revisions to Privacy Policy
GFM reserves the right to revise these Terms and Conditions of Use from time to time. Please check the Terms and Conditions of Use whenever you revisit this website.
- Also, on the contact screen (at the bottom, as a disclaimer), we think we should have something along these lines: Please be aware that GFM cannot guarantee that your communication with the firm by means of this website will remain free from interception by third-parties. GFM does not agree to represent you simply because you send GFM an email. An attorney-client relationship is NOT created simply by sending GFM an email, and you should not send any sensitive, confidential or private information to GFM before such a relationship is created. If you choose to send GFM any sensitive, confidential or private information to GFM before such a relationship is created, you do so at your own risk and GFM shall not be liable for any of the consequences of your doing so. Please be advised that GFM cannot represent you until we can confirm that doing so will not create a conflict of interest. For these reasons, please do not use GFM’s “contact form” to send any confidential or sensitive information to the firm.
