Privacy Policy

Effective date: 27 September 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what personal data Ablov & Partners law firm (the “Firm”, “we”) collects when you use the website ablov.com.ua (the “Website”), why we process it, how we protect it and what rights you have. The Policy is based on the Law of Ukraine “On Personal Data Protection” and, for visitors from the European Union, takes into account the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Data controller

The controller of your personal data is Ablov & Partners law firm.
Address: 1g Admiralskyi Avenue, Odesa 65012, Ukraine.
Phone: +38 098 012 5555.
Email: ablovua@gmail.com.

2. What data we collect

• data you voluntarily submit through forms on the Website: your name and phone number, and any other information you choose to include in your request;
• data you provide when you contact us by phone, email or messengers (Telegram, Viber, WhatsApp);
• technical data sent automatically when you visit the Website: IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, date and time of the visit, referral source. This data is collected using cookies and analytics services.

Please do not send documents or details of your case through the Website forms — it is better to share them with a lawyer during the consultation.

3. Purposes of processing

• to contact you in response to your request and arrange a consultation;
• to provide legal assistance and fulfil our arrangements with you;
• to analyse traffic and improve the Website;
• to measure the effectiveness of advertising;
• to comply with legal requirements.

4. Legal grounds

We process personal data on the basis of your consent, which you give by filling in a form on the Website or contacting us; to conclude and perform an agreement on legal assistance; to comply with legal obligations; and on the basis of our legitimate interest in ensuring the operation and security of the Website.

5. Cookies and analytics

The Website uses cookies — small text files stored in your browser. They are needed for the Website to work properly, to remember your language and for analytics. To analyse traffic we use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (Google LLC). These services receive anonymised data about how you use the Website. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features of the Website may then not work correctly.

6. Sharing data with third parties

We do not sell your personal data or share it with third parties for their own purposes. Access to the data may be given only to:

• service providers that keep the Website running (hosting, analytics, email), to the extent necessary for those services;
• public authorities, only in the cases and in the manner prescribed by law.

Some services (including Google) may process data on servers outside Ukraine. In such cases we rely on the data protection safeguards provided by these providers.

7. Attorney–client privilege

Information you share with us when seeking legal assistance is protected by attorney–client privilege under the Law of Ukraine “On the Bar and Practice of Law”.

8. Retention period

We keep data from requests for as long as needed to contact you and provide our services, but no longer than three years from the last interaction, unless a longer period is required by law. After that the data is deleted or anonymised.

9. Data security

We take organisational and technical measures to protect personal data against loss, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure: the Website uses a secure HTTPS connection, and only authorised staff of the Firm have access to requests.

10. Your rights

Under Article 8 of the Law of Ukraine “On Personal Data Protection” (and, where applicable, the GDPR), you have the right to:

• know what data about you is processed, for what purpose and who has access to it;
• access your data;
• request correction of inaccurate data or deletion of your data;
• object to processing and withdraw your consent at any time;
• lodge a complaint with the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights, a supervisory authority or a court.

To exercise your rights, email us at ablovua@gmail.com. We will reply within 30 calendar days.

11. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy. The current version is always available on this page together with its effective date.
