In addition, we recommend you to review our policy from time to time to make sure that you understand how any personal information you provide us will be used. If you continue using our web page after any policy update you are accepting the new terms and changes.

MTZ Law Group policy applies exclusively to all information collected by our web page as follows:

  • Personal Information provided to us – We only have access to and collect personal information (such as your name, date of birth, mailing or physical address, telephone number, or email address, and email preferences (collectively, “Personal Information”) that you voluntarily provided to us via email or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent your Personal Information to anyone. We are the sole owners of the Personal Information collected on this “site”.
  • Information Collected by Automated Means – Whenever you use the “site”, we, as well as any of our third-party advertisers and/or service providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically collect information about how the “site” is accessed and used (“Usage Information”).
  • Usage Information may include, in part, browser type, operating system, the page served, the time, how many users visited the “site” and this statistical data provides us with information about the use of the “site”, such as how many visitors visit a specific page on the “site”, how long they stay on that page, and which hyperlinks, if any, they “click” on. Usage Information helps us to keep the “site” fresh and interesting to our visitors and to tailor content to a visitor’s interests. Usage Information is generally non-identifying, but if we associate it with you as a specific and identifiable person, we treat it as Personal Information.
  • Device Identifiers – In the course of collecting Usage Information we may also collect your IP address, MAC Address or other unique identifier (each a “Device Identifier”) for the computer, mobile device, Wi-Fi card, or other technology (collectively, “Device”) you use to access the “site”. 

A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a web “site” or its servers. Our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. When you visit the “site” we may view your Device Identifier. We use this information to identify repeat visitors to our “site”. We also may use this information to send you immigration related information and to enhance the “site”. We may associate your Device Identifier with your Personal Information.

The technologies used on the “site”, including Device Identifiers, to collect Usage Information may include, without limitation:

  • Cookies – Cookies are data files placed on a Device when it is used to visit the “site”. We may use cookies to collect and store certain information about you. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them).
  • Web Beacons – We may also include web beacons (also known as web bugs, Internet tags, pixel tags, tracking pixels and clear GIFs) with the content and ads that we deliver to you, which we will use to collect information regarding your interaction with our content and ads. A web beacon is a transparent graphic image placed on a web page or in an email, which indicates that a page or email has been viewed or that an email has been forwarded. In addition, a web beacon allows third parties to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, the type of browser used to view the page, and the information in cookies set by the third party. A web beacon may also tell your browser to get content from another server.

Cookies and web beacons (together, ““site” Cookies”) may enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our “site”, track user actions/behavior on our “site” and track the effectiveness of marketing information.
