We may collect two types of information about you: personally identifiable information and nonpersonally identifiable information.
Personally Identifiable Information
Personally identifiable information includes items such as your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address. There are three sources from which we typically obtain this information.

page or by subscribing to a blog or newsletter. - Information from our third-party partners. For example, you participate in a seminar held by a third-party partner where one of our attorneys spoke. You gave the seminar organizer your name, title, company, etc. After the seminar, the third-party partner gave us your contact information.
- Information obtained from in-person events such as trade shows. For example, you give us your business/name card at our booth at a trade show.

Some of the data we collect and aggregate is considered to be non-personally identifiable information. This information cannot and will not be used to identify, reveal, or disclose the individual with whom such data is associated. See below for use of non-personally identifiable information.
