Version of 5 November 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 Company LLC, EDRPOU code 38478044.
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, Signal);
- 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. We also use your IP address temporarily to protect the forms from spam.
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. Necessary cookies remember your choice, analytics cookies show how the Website works, and advertising cookies show whether an ad led to an enquiry. For this we use Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Google Ads (Google LLC), as well as Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Corporation). These services may receive your IP address, device data, the pages you visit and your actions on the Website. If you came to the Website from an ad, the ad click ID (gclid, gbraid or wbraid) and utm source tags are kept in your browser for 90 days and added to your enquiry so we know which ad brought it. Clicks on the call and messenger buttons are recorded on the Website together with the ad click ID and kept for 30 days so we can match a call with the ad; your IP address is not stored. When an enquiry turns into a consultation or an agreement, we send Google Ads only the ad click ID (gclid, gbraid or wbraid), the event name (consultation or agreement), its time and the agreement amount — without your name or the details of your case. We send Google the phone number from your request only in encrypted (hashed, SHA-256) form, to match the enquiry with the ad (Google Ads enhanced conversions). This shows us which ads bring clients. You can turn off analytics and advertising cookies. See our Cookie Policy for details.
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, advertising, email, Telegram, the enquiry management system), to the extent necessary for those services;
- public authorities, only in the cases and in the manner prescribed by law.
Some services (including Google, Microsoft and Telegram) 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.
