Privacy Policy
Last updated: 24.08.2026
1. General
Sabina Mayer Law Offices (the “Firm,” “we,” “us” or “our”) respects the privacy and confidentiality of its clients, prospective clients, website visitors and other persons whose personal information it processes.
This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we may collect, why and how we use it, the circumstances in which it may be disclosed, how we use technological and artificial-intelligence-assisted services, and the rights available to individuals in relation to information concerning them.
This Policy applies to information collected or received through our website (the “Website”), through communications with us, and in connection with inquiries, engagements and professional services provided by the Firm.
For purposes of this Policy, “personal information” means information relating to an identified person or a person who can reasonably be identified, directly or indirectly, in accordance with the Israeli Privacy Protection Law, 5741-1981, as amended from time to time (the “Privacy Protection Law”).
Certain information processed by us may constitute “information of special sensitivity” within the meaning of the Privacy Protection Law.
2. Personal Information We May Collect
The nature of the personal information we collect depends on your interaction with us and the services you request.
We may collect information such as identification and contact details, family and civil-status information, citizenship and residency information, financial and billing information, correspondence, official documents and certificates, and information contained in materials submitted to us for translation, review, certification, authentication or other professional services.
Because of the nature of our work, some information may constitute information of special sensitivity under applicable law, including, where relevant, criminal-record information, where lawfully provided to us and relevant to the requested service, financial information, information concerning legal proceedings, and other private or sensitive personal circumstances.
We may also receive relevant information from governmental authorities, courts, municipalities, embassies, consulates, professional advisers, service providers, public sources or other third parties.
We seek to collect and process only information that is reasonably relevant to the purpose for which it is required.
3. Voluntary Provision of Information and Consequences of Refusal
Unless we inform you otherwise, you are not under a legal obligation to provide personal information to the Firm, and providing such information is generally voluntary.
However, certain information may be necessary for us to provide the professional service you request or to complete a legal, administrative or professional procedure. In some cases, specific information or documentation may also be required by law, a court, governmental authority or other competent body.
If you choose not to provide information that is necessary or materially relevant to the requested service, we may be unable to provide the service, complete part of it, or the scope, accuracy, completeness or quality of the service may be affected.
For example, where you ask us to translate, review, certify, authenticate or otherwise process a document, we must generally have access to the information contained in that document. If you choose not to provide the document or relevant information contained in it, we may be unable to perform the requested service.
By contacting the Firm, submitting information or documents to us, using the Website, or engaging us to provide professional services, you acknowledge that personal information provided by you, or otherwise lawfully received by us in connection with your inquiry or matter, may be collected, stored and processed for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
4. Information Concerning Other Persons
In the course of providing our services, you may provide us with personal information concerning another person, including a spouse, partner, parent, child, family member, employee, representative or other third party.
If you provide us with information concerning another person, you should ensure that you are legally entitled or otherwise authorized to provide that information to us.
Where appropriate, you should also inform that person that their information may be provided to and processed by the Firm in connection with the relevant matter.
We may also receive information concerning third parties directly from authorities, official records, professional advisers, service providers or other sources where this is relevant to the service we are providing.
5. Purposes for Which We Use Personal Information
We may use personal information to communicate with you, manage and provide the requested professional services, prepare and process documents, interact with relevant authorities and service providers, manage client files and internal workflows, issue invoices and process payments, comply with legal and professional obligations, protect our legal rights, and maintain the security and operation of our systems.
We process personal information only for purposes reasonably connected to the reason for which it was collected.
6. Controller of the Information
The person or entity responsible for determining the purposes for which personal information held by the Firm is processed is:
SABINA MAYER LAW OFFICES AND NOTARY
25 HaMered St., Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel
info@mayerlaw.co.il
Personal information may be maintained in databases, electronic systems, physical files, cloud services and other information systems operated or used by the Firm.
Questions or requests concerning the processing of personal information may be directed to the contact details above.
7. Software, Cloud Services and External Service Providers
The Firm uses third-party software, cloud services and external service providers for purposes such as email, document and project management, cloud storage, accounting, cybersecurity, website hosting and AI-assisted services. These may include Microsoft 365, OneDrive, ClickUp, Notion and similar platforms.
Personal information, including information of special sensitivity where applicable, may be stored or processed through these providers.
We take reasonable measures to assess relevant providers and to ensure that their access to personal information is limited to what is necessary for the services they provide and is subject to applicable legal, contractual and information-security requirements.
8. Use of Artificial Intelligence
The Firm may use AI-assisted tools for purposes such as drafting, translation, summarization, research, document review, and internal administrative work.
AI is used as an assistive tool and does not replace professional judgment. Where AI-generated content is materially relevant to professional work, it is subject to appropriate human review and verification.
We do not knowingly provide identifiable, confidential, privileged or private client information to open or public AI systems without the specific consent required by applicable professional ethical rules. Where AI systems are used in connection with client information, we seek to use appropriately controlled services and configurations providing suitable confidentiality, access-control, security, retention and no-training protections.
Where client personal or confidential information is to be processed through an AI platform and applicable law or professional ethical rules require client consent, the Firm obtains the client’s specific prior informed consent in the manner required by the applicable rules. The Firm does not rely on this Privacy Policy as blanket consent for such use.
9. Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties
We do not sell personal information.
We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to provide our services, including to courts, governmental authorities, municipalities, embassies, consulates, notaries, translators, professional advisers, payment providers, technology and cloud-service providers, and other persons or organizations involved in handling your matter.
We may also disclose information where required or permitted by law, pursuant to a court order or request of a competent authority, or where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.
10. Website Information and Cookies
The Website may use cookies and similar technologies provided by Squarespace and other service providers for purposes such as website operation, security, functionality, analytics and performance.
Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies will be used subject to the visitor’s consent through the Website’s cookie preferences or consent banner. Visitors may accept, reject or manage such cookies through the options made available on the Website.
Strictly necessary cookies may be used without consent where they are required for the proper operation, security or functionality of the Website.
Information collected through cookies or similar technologies may include technical information such as IP address, browser or device information, pages visited and access times. Such processing may also be subject to the privacy policies and terms of the relevant technology providers.
11. Information Security
We take reasonable administrative, organizational, and technological measures to protect personal information, including information of special sensitivity, against unauthorized access, disclosure, misuse, loss, or alteration.
Access is limited, where reasonably practicable, to personnel and service providers who require it for legitimate professional, administrative, or technical purposes.
While we take reasonable precautions, no information system or online service can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
12. International Storage and Transfer of Information
Some of the technological and professional service providers used by the Firm may operate servers, personnel or infrastructure outside Israel.
Personal information may therefore be stored, accessed or processed in jurisdictions outside Israel.
Where personal information is transferred or made accessible outside Israel, we do so in accordance with applicable Israeli law and, where required, apply appropriate contractual, organizational and information-security safeguards.
13. Retention of Personal Information
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including for the provision and documentation of professional services, maintaining client and matter records, complying with legal, professional, accounting and tax obligations, resolving disputes, protecting legal rights, and other legitimate record-keeping purposes.
Client files and related professional records may be retained for a period determined by the Firm or as otherwise agreed with the client in writing, subject to applicable law. Different retention periods may apply to different categories of information.
We review, at least annually, whether personal information retained by us remains necessary and seek to delete or anonymize information that is no longer necessary, unless its continued retention is required or permitted by law or is reasonably necessary for one of the purposes described above.
14. Rights Regarding Personal Information
Subject to applicable law, an individual may have the right to review personal information concerning them that is held by the Firm and, where such information is incorrect, incomplete, unclear or outdated, to request its correction.
Where the applicable legal requirements are met, an individual may also have the right to request deletion of personal information concerning them.
Where personal information has been transferred to Israel from the European Economic Area and is subject to the Privacy Protection Regulations (Provisions Regarding Information Transferred to Israel from the European Economic Area), 2023, additional requirements may apply, including obligations concerning deletion of information, limitation of retention of information that is no longer necessary, accuracy of information, and notification to the data subject.
These requirements may also apply, in accordance with applicable law, to other personal information maintained in the same database.
Requests concerning access, correction or deletion of personal information may be submitted to:
info@mayerlaw.co.il
We may require reasonable information in order to verify the identity of the person making a request before providing access to, correcting or deleting information.
Nothing in this section requires us to correct or delete information where retaining that information is required or permitted by applicable law, professional obligations or another lawful purpose.
Where the EEA Regulations require us to provide information directly to a data subject, we provide the applicable notice within the time and in the manner required by those Regulations, subject to the exceptions provided therein.
15. Communications and Direct Mailing
Where we send marketing communications, newsletters or other communications that constitute direct mailing under applicable law, we will do so subject to applicable legal requirements.
Where applicable, recipients may request removal from the relevant mailing list or use the unsubscribe method provided in the communication.
This section does not apply to communications that are reasonably necessary in connection with an inquiry, an existing professional relationship, a client matter, invoicing, administration or the provision of requested services.
16. Third-Party Websites and Services
The Website may contain links to websites, applications or services operated by third parties.
The Firm does not control independent third-party websites and is not responsible for their privacy practices, information-security measures, content or operation.
Users should review the privacy policies and terms of third-party services where appropriate.
17. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including in response to changes in applicable law, regulatory guidance, technology, the services we provide, or the software and systems used by the Firm.
The current version will be made available on the Website or through another appropriate means.
The date of the latest revision will appear at the beginning of this Policy.
