Hood Venture Counsel, P.C. (the “Firm,” “we,” or “us”), recognizes the importance of your personal privacy. Therefore, we have created this Privacy Policy so that you know how we use and disclose your information when you make it available to us. The Privacy Policy below discloses our practices regarding data collection and usage for the websites located at jonhoodesq.com, as well as the related mobile websites (collectively, the “Websites”) and the service provided thereon (collectively, the “Service”).
By using or accessing the Service, you signify your agreement to be bound by this Privacy Policy. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR OTHERWISE USE OUR WEBSITES.
Key aspects of our privacy practices described in this Privacy Policy include the following explanations:
- The data that we collect and why we collect it;
- How we use that data;
- How we share data; and
- The rights to your data.
Personal Data That We Collect:
You may be required to submit certain personal data when you register on the Service. The personal data which you may provide to us could include your email, name, phone number, and other personal data collected from you or through some other form of consent from you or notification to you.
Non-Personal or Aggregate Data That We Collect:
When you access our Service, we may automatically collect non-personal data from you, such as web pages viewed, browser type, operating system, and referring service.
Information Usage:
We will only use your personal data as described below, unless you have specifically consented to another type of use, either at the time the personal data is collected from you or through some other form of consent from you or notification to you:
- We may use your personal data to provide legal services to you.
- We may use your personal data to respond to inquiries made by you through the Websites.
- We may disclose personal data as required by law or legal process.

Non-personally identifiable or aggregate information may be used by us for any purposes permitted by law, provided that such information shall not specifically identify you.
Cookies and Similar Technologies:
“Cookies” are pieces of information that may be placed on your computer by a service for the purpose of facilitating and enhancing your communication and interaction with that service. Many services use cookies for these purposes. We may use cookies (and similar items such as clear gifs, web beacons, tags, etc.) on our Service to customize your visit and for other purposes to make your visit more convenient or to enable us to enhance our Service. You may stop or restrict the placement of cookies on your computer or flush them from your browser by adjusting your web browser preferences, in which case you may still use our Service, but it may interfere with some of its functionality. Cookies and similar items are not used by us to automatically retrieve personally identifiable information from your computer without your knowledge.
If you delete your cookies, change browsers or use a different cookie, our cookie (or an opt-out cookie) may no longer work and you will have to reinput (or opt-out) again.
Security:
The security of your personal data is very important to us. When we collect your personal data online, we use reasonable efforts to protect it from unauthorized access. However, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that your personal data will be completely free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your use of our Service demonstrates your assumption of this risk. We have put in place reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect. For more information on protecting your privacy, please visit www.ftc.gov/privacy.
Your Disclosures in Blogs And Other Social Media:
You should be aware that personal data which you voluntarily include and transmit online on the Service or in a publicly accessible blog, chat room, social media platform or otherwise online, or that you share in an open forum such as an in-person panel or survey, may be viewed and used by others without any restrictions. We are unable to control such uses of your personal data, and by using the Service or any other online services you assume the risk that the personal data provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties for any number of purposes.
Other Services:
As a convenience to you, we may provide links to third-party services from within our Service. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third-party sites. When you link away from our Service, you do so at your own risk.
Changes to this Privacy Policy:
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from this Privacy Policy at any time. However, if at any time in the future we plan to use personal data in a way that materially differs from this Privacy Policy, including sharing such information with more third parties, we will email you and give you the opportunity to review the revised policy before you choose to continue using our Services.
Communications with the Firm:
By providing your email address to us, you expressly consent to receive emails from us. By providing your phone number to us, you expressly consent to receive phone calls and/or text messages from us. Any phone calls and/or text messages delivered to your phone or device may cause you to incur extra data, text messaging, or other charges from your wireless carrier.
