Privacy Policy & Legal Notices

Who We Are

Kearney Law Group Ltd is the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. We are registered in Northern Ireland (company number NI663222), and our registered office is Bishop Street Chambers, 26–28 Bishop Street, Derry BT48 6PR. You can contact us about your data at [email protected] or on 02890 912 938. We are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (registration number ZA796425).

What Information We Collect

When you use our website or contact us, we may collect:

• Personal details like your name, address, phone number, and email address.
• Details about your case or enquiry to help us understand how to support you.
• Health information such as details of your injuries, medical treatment and medical records, where they are relevant to your claim.
• Website usage data such as pages you visit, time spent on the site, and how you found us.
• Cookies and tracking data to improve your experience and website performance.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Respond to your questions and provide legal advice or services.
• Help us improve our website and services.
• Send you news, updates, or offers if you agree to receive them.
• Meet our legal and regulatory obligations.
• Protect our business and prevent fraud.

Our Legal Reasons for Using Your Information

Data protection law only allows us to use your information where we have a legal reason to. Ours are:

• Your enquiry and your claim. We use your details to respond to your enquiry, to consider whether we can help, and to act for you if you instruct us. This is necessary to take the steps you ask for before we agree to act, and then to carry out our agreement with you.
• Legal and regulatory duties. We keep records and share information where the law or the Law Society of Northern Ireland requires us to.
• Our legitimate interests. We use limited information to run, improve and protect our business and our website, including preventing fraud, where this does not override your own interests and rights.
• Your consent. We only send you news, updates or offers if you have agreed to receive them. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Details of your injuries and medical treatment are health information, which the law treats as a special category of personal data. We use it only where it is necessary to establish, pursue or defend a legal claim.

How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep your information only for as long as we need it. If you make an enquiry and we do not go on to act for you, we keep your details for as long as we need to deal with the enquiry and any follow-up. If we act for you, we keep your file after your case ends for as long as the law and the Law Society of Northern Ireland’s rules require, and for as long as we may need it to answer any question or complaint about our work. We then delete it or destroy it securely.

How We Protect Your Information

We take strong measures to keep your information safe:

• Using secure servers and encryption.
• Restricting access to authorised staff only.
• Regularly reviewing our security practices.

Sharing Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal data. We may share your information:

• Where needed to run your claim, with medical experts, barristers, the other party and their insurers or solicitors, anyone providing insurance or funding for your claim, and the courts.
• With trusted service providers who help us run our business, such as IT support.
• If required by law or legal process.
• With your permission or to protect your vital interests.

Your Rights

You have rights regarding your personal data, including:

• Access: You can ask for a copy of your data.
• Correction: You can ask us to fix incorrect or incomplete data.
• Deletion: You can ask us to delete your data where we no longer need it.
• Restriction: You can ask us to limit how we use your data.
• Object: You can object to some processing, like marketing emails.
• Portability: You can ask for information you gave us in a format you can take elsewhere, where this applies.
• Withdraw Consent: If you gave permission to contact you, you can change your mind anytime.
