Lobby 26 ("we", "our", "the Firm") is committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of every individual who contacts or engages with us. This Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information. Given the sensitive nature of our work, we apply standards that significantly exceed statutory minimum requirements.
We collect information you voluntarily provide when you contact us via WhatsApp, our website inquiry form, or other communication channels. This includes your name, phone number, email address, and a description of your legal matter. We may also collect technical data such as IP addresses and browser type through standard web analytics tools.
All information shared with Lobby 26 is used exclusively to assess and respond to your inquiry, provide requested professional services, and communicate with you about your matter. We do not use your personal data for marketing without your explicit consent. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party except where required by law or with your explicit written authorisation.
All communications between you and Lobby 26's legal team are protected under professional privilege as provided under the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, and the Bar Council of India Rules. Information shared for the purpose of obtaining legal advice is strictly confidential. This protection extends across all four service pillars where our legal team is engaged.
Before any detailed briefing of your matter, Lobby 26 executes a comprehensive Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with each client. This NDA is legally binding under Indian Contract Law and provides military-grade data security obligations on our firm and all personnel who may access your case information.
We implement military-grade encryption for all digital communications. Client data is stored on encrypted servers with access restricted on a strict "Need-to-Know" basis. Our physical documents are secured in access-controlled premises with round-the-clock monitoring. We conduct regular internal security audits to ensure continued compliance with our data protection standards.
We retain client records for a period of seven (7) years from the conclusion of a matter, as required by professional standards and Indian law. After this period, records are securely destroyed. You may request deletion of your data at any time, subject to our legal obligations to retain certain records.
Our website may use limited third-party tools such as Google Analytics for aggregate traffic analysis. These tools do not have access to personally identifiable information submitted through inquiry channels. We do not permit third-party advertising on our platform.
You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request corrections, request deletion (subject to legal obligations), and withdraw consent to communications at any time. To exercise these rights, contact us via WhatsApp at +91 73588 45568 or through our website.
Our website uses essential cookies required for basic functionality. We do not use tracking cookies for advertising purposes. By continuing to use our website, you consent to the use of essential cookies.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any material changes will be communicated to existing clients directly. Continued use of our services after any change constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy. The effective date at the top of this page indicates the most recent revision.
For any privacy-related concerns, to exercise your data rights, or to raise a grievance, contact our Compliance Officer via WhatsApp at +91 73588 45568. We aim to respond to all privacy requests within 14 business days.
This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of India. Any disputes arising from this policy shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Mumbai, Maharashtra. This document constitutes a legally binding agreement between you and Lobby 26 Advisory Services.
