Privacy Statement Effective December 1, 2007
Our Commitment to Privacy
Your privacy is very important
to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this
notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make
about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to
find, we make it available on our home page and at every point where personally
identifiable information may be requested.
This notice applies to all information collected from or submitted to the following
Courtport ("CP")
Web sites, but to make this notice easier to read we will use the
term "our Web site", which means Courtport.com and LegalDockets.com.
Other CP Web sites may operate under their own privacy notices.
Our Web site contains links to other Web sites operated by third parties. CP is
not responsible for the privacy practices or policies of such third party web sites
and this Notice does not apply to those Web sites.

Application of This Notice
This Notice applies only to the information collected by CP from the users of our
Web site. It does not apply to information collected by CP in any other way, including
offline.

The Information We Collect
Our Web site is not set up to automatically collect personally identifiable information
from each visitor to our Web site. It does recognize the home server of visitors,
but not email addresses. For example, we can tell which Internet Service Provider
our visitors use, but not the names, addresses or other information about our visitors
that would allow us to identify the particular visitors to our Web site. This information
is used only for internal purposes by our technical support staff.
Our Web site does track certain information about the visits to our Web site. For
example, we compile statistics that show the numbers and frequency of visitors to
our Web site and its individual pages. These aggregated statistics are used internally
to improve our Web site and for product development and marketing purposes generally.
Those aggregated statistics may also be provided to advertisers and other third
parties, but again, the statistics contain no personal information and cannot be
used to gather such information.
In a few areas on our Web site, we ask you to provide information that will enable
us to verify whether you are entitled to access and use certain information, materials
and services available from our Web site, or to enable us to enhance your site visit,
to assist you with customer service or technical support issues, or to follow up
with you after your visit, or to otherwise support your customer relationship with
CP. It is completely optional for you to participate. However, failure to participate
may mean that you cannot access and use certain information, materials and services.
For example, we request information from you when you:
- Log on to certain areas of our Web site, such as Courtport.com, where you may be prompted to provide us with your Courtport Name or Email Address and password as a
condition to gaining access to certain information, materials or services.
- Register or sign up to use a service such as courtport.com.
- Subscribe to a newsletter or desire to be added to our mailing lists for other
products or services.
- Place an order.
- Participate in a sweepstakes or other promotional offers.
- Provide feedback in an online survey.
In each of the instances above, we typically ask for your name, email address, phone
number, address, law practice information, product preference information, Courtport
name and password, as well as other similar personal information that is needed
to register or subscribe you to services or offers. On occasion, we may ask for
additional information to enable us to provide you with access to and use of certain
information, materials and services. In the case of newsletters or mailing lists,
you will be able to "unsubscribe" to these mailings at any time.

How We Use Information: CP Only Uses Your Personal Information for Specific Purposes
The personal information you provide to us when using our Web site, such as your
name, postal or email address or telephone number will be kept confidential and
used to support your customer relationship with CP, and to notify you of special
offers, updated information and new products and services from CP, offers from third
parties that we think may be of interest to you, or used by CP or third parties
for the purpose of conducting market research or surveys on behalf of CP. Agents
or contractors of CP who are given access to your personal information will be required
to keep the information confidential and not use it for any other purpose than to
carry out the services they are performing for CP. CP may enhance or merge your information collected at its Web site with data from
third parties for purposes of marketing products or services to you.
With respect to network advertising companies (companies that manage and provide
advertising for numerous unrelated companies), to the extent that CP utilizes such
advertising companies to provide advertisements on our Web site, CP may provide
them with your log-in name and any demographic information about you that we collect.
Those advertising companies may combine that data with non-personally identifiable
data collected by the advertising company from your computer solely for the purpose
of delivering on our Web site advertisements that are targeted to you.
Circumstances may arise where we are required to disclose your personal information
to third parties for purposes other than to support your customer relationship with
CP, such as in connection with a corporate divestiture or dissolution where we sell
all or a portion of our business or assets (including our associated customer lists
containing your personal information), or if disclosure is required by law or is
pertinent to judicial or governmental investigations or proceedings.

You Can Opt Out of Receiving Further Marketing from CP at Any Time
We will send you information about our various products and services, or other products
and services we feel may be of interest to you. Only CP (or agents or contractors
working on behalf of CP and under confidentiality agreements) will send you these
direct mailings. If you do not want to receive such mailings, simply tell us when
you give us your personal information. Or, at any time you can easily opt out of
receiving further marketing from CP by emailing us from our contact page.

Our Commitment to Data Security
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use
of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial
procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

How You Can Access or Correct Your Information
You can request a copy of the personally-identifiable
information that CP has collected about you via the Internet and/or correct factual inaccuracies by contacting us.
