Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 10, 2026

Jonjit Singh Law Corporation ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the personal information of our clients and website visitors. We collect, use, and disclose personal information only as necessary to provide legal services and to meet our professional obligations, in accordance with British Columbia's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you regarding your information. By engaging our services or using this website, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

2. What Information We Collect

In the course of providing legal services and operating this website, we may collect the following types of personal information:

  • Identification and contact details — including your name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number.
  • Information about your legal matter — including facts, documents, and other information you provide to us so that we can advise or represent you.
  • Correspondence — emails, letters, and records of telephone conversations relating to your matter or inquiries.
  • Billing and financial information — including invoices, payment records, and trust account information as required by Law Society of BC rules.
  • Website usage data — including IP addresses, browser type, pages visited, and referring URLs collected through basic analytics tools (see Section 8).

We collect only the information that is reasonably necessary for the purposes described below. We do not collect sensitive personal information (such as health or financial data) unless it is directly relevant to your legal matter.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

  • To provide legal advice, representation, and related professional services to you.
  • To communicate with you about your legal matter, including providing updates and responding to your inquiries.
  • To prepare and send invoices, process payments, and maintain trust accounting records as required by the Law Society of BC.
  • To comply with our legal and professional obligations, including duties under the Legal Profession Act (BC), Law Society of BC rules, and applicable legislation.
  • To improve the quality of our services and the functionality of our website.
  • To send you information about legal updates or firm news where you have consented to receive such communications.

We will not use your personal information for any purpose other than those listed above without first obtaining your consent, except where permitted or required by law.

4. Disclosure of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may disclose your personal information only in the following circumstances:

  • Service providers — to third parties who assist us in delivering services, such as the Land Title and Survey Authority (LTSA), government agencies, notaries, financial institutions, opposing counsel, or other parties as required to complete your legal matter.
  • Legal and professional obligations — where required or authorized by law, court order, or regulatory authority, including the Law Society of BC.
  • Your consent — where you have expressly authorized us to share your information with a specific party.
  • Business transfers — in the unlikely event of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of our practice, personal information may be disclosed as part of that transaction, subject to the recipient maintaining equivalent privacy protections.

All third parties with whom we share your information are required to maintain the confidentiality of that information and to use it only for the purposes for which it was disclosed.

5. Retention

We retain client files and personal information for the period required by the Law Society of BC and applicable legislation. In general, closed client files are retained for a minimum of seven (7) years from the date the matter concludes, or longer if required by specific legislative provisions or professional obligations. After the applicable retention period, personal information is securely destroyed or anonymized.

Website analytics data is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes described in Section 8.

6. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information in our custody or control from unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal, or destruction. These measures include secure electronic storage, password protection, restricted staff access, and confidentiality obligations for all personnel.

While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to promptly addressing any privacy breach in accordance with our obligations under PIPA.

7. Access and Correction

Subject to certain exceptions permitted by law (including solicitor-client privilege and third-party confidentiality), you have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you and to request that any inaccurate information be corrected. To make such a request, please contact us in writing using the contact details in Section 9.

We will respond to access requests within 30 days, or notify you if additional time is required. We may charge a reasonable fee for access requests in accordance with PIPA.
