Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

When you use Brisamo we may collect: the details you submit in our forms (such as your name, email, location, the practice area and a description of your matter); firm sign-up details; questions you post; and basic technical data (such as device and analytics information).

2. How we use it

We use your information to match you with relevant law firms, to operate and improve the service, to respond to you, and to keep the platform secure. We do not sell your personal data.

3. Who we share it with

When you request to be matched or to contact a firm, we share the relevant details with the law firm(s) we introduce you to, so they can respond. We use service providers who handle data on our behalf under appropriate safeguards: Cloudflare (hosting and delivery of this website), Web3Forms (delivery of the forms you send us to our inbox) and Zoho Mail (our email).

4. Law-firm listings and removal

Brisamo lists law firms using information the firms have published themselves and other publicly available sources, so that people can find legal help abroad. Our legal basis for this is legitimate interest in operating an open directory. Until a firm confirms its profile, the profile page states that it was compiled from public information. If you are a listed firm — or are authorised to act for one — you can claim your profile, ask us to correct it, or request its removal at any time. We action verified requests within 5 working days and confirm by email.

5. Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-Y0XHRVMVPK) to see how the site is used: which pages people arrive on, which guides they read and where they leave. We do not use advertising cookies, we do not build advertising audiences, and we do not sell or share your data.

Consent starts switched off. Under Google Consent Mode v2 every storage type is set to “denied” until you answer the banner, so no cookie and no identifier is written to your device and no visit history is built for you. Google still receives a cookieless signal that a page was viewed; it cannot be tied to your device across visits. We rely on our legitimate interest in understanding basic, aggregate site performance as the legal basis for this cookieless signal; it does not identify you and is not combined with any other data we hold.

If you accept, two cookies are set on this domain — _ga and _ga_Y0XHRVMVPK — holding a random identifier that tells returning visits apart. They hold no name, no email address and none of the content you write into our forms. Analytics data is kept for 14 months and then deleted. Declining limits nothing on the site.

You can change or withdraw this choice at any time on this device:

Separately from Google Analytics, and without any cookie: when you use a contact link on this site (email, telephone or WhatsApp), or when a form you send is accepted, your browser makes one small request to this same domain. All that is recorded is which kind of link was used and which page it was used on. Nothing is written to your device, the request carries no identifier and no personal data, and we do not store your IP address. It does not depend on the choice above — it is how we see that people are getting in touch at all, including the visitors who decline analytics cookies. The share buttons on our guides are not counted.

6. Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes above or as required by law, then delete or anonymise it.

7. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@brisamo.com.

8. Changes and contact

We may update this policy from time to time; material changes will be reflected here. Questions about your data: hello@brisamo.com.
