Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 November 2026

This policy explains how VEYLARDEN LAW (“we”, “us”) handles personal data collected through this website, in particular through the confidential inquiry form.

1. Who is responsible

The data controller is VEYLARDEN LAW, with offices at 60 Columbus Circle, New York, and 25 North Wall Quay, Dublin. For any privacy question or request, contact us at meridanlaw@gmail.com.

2. What data we collect

• Information you enter in the inquiry form: name, country, place of residence, contact email, phone or WhatsApp number (optional), the office you wish to contact, the name of the counterparty or platform, and your case summary.
• Technical data processed when you submit the form, such as your IP address, which our form provider uses to prevent spam and abuse.
• If you contact us directly by WhatsApp or telephone: your phone number, name and the content of your messages. WhatsApp is operated by Meta Platforms and processes messages under its own terms and privacy policy.
• A language preference saved in your browser (local storage) so the site remembers your chosen language. We do not use advertising or analytics cookies on this website.

3. Why we use it and on what basis

We use your information to respond to your inquiry and to carry out a preliminary conflict-of-interest check before any engagement. Our legal bases are your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, given by ticking the box on the form), steps taken at your request before entering into an engagement (Art. 6(1)(b)), and our legitimate interest in handling inquiries and meeting professional conflict-check obligations (Art. 6(1)(f)). You can withdraw your consent at any time.

4. Please do not send sensitive credentials

Never include private keys, seed phrases, passwords or verification codes in the form or in any message to us. Please also avoid sending special categories of personal data (for example health data or political opinions) unless essential, and do not send confidential documents until we have confirmed a secure channel.

5. Who receives your data

Your inquiry is delivered by email through Web3Forms, a form-processing service, to our mailbox hosted by Google (Gmail). This website is served by our hosting provider. These providers process data on our behalf or as independent service providers and may be located outside the EU/EEA, including in the United States. Where required, transfers rely on safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. We do not sell your data and do not use it for marketing.

6. How long we keep it

Inquiries that do not lead to an engagement are kept for 12 months and then deleted. If an engagement is established, your information is handled under the engagement terms and retained for as long as required by law and professional rules.

7. Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your data, to object to its processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, email meridanlaw@gmail.com. You may also lodge a complaint with a data protection authority, for example the Data Protection Commission in Ireland or the authority in your country of residence.

8. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so please share only the minimum information needed in your first message.

9. No attorney-client relationship

Submitting the form or reading this website does not create an attorney-client relationship. Such a relationship is created only by a written engagement agreement after conflict checks are complete.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. The current version is always published on this page.
