At Boran Legal, we take the privacy of those we serve seriously. This policy sets out plainly what information we collect, how it is used, and what choices you have. If anything here is unclear, you are welcome to write to us at [email protected] and we will do our best to explain.
1. Who We Are
Boran Legal is a legal services firm specialising in inheritance and estate matters, based in Bangkok, Thailand. Our registered address is 312 Bang Na-Trat Road, Bang Na, Bangkok 10260. When this policy refers to "we", "us", or "our", it means Boran Legal.
For questions about this policy or how we handle your data, you may contact us at [email protected] or by telephone at +66 83 271 6049.
2. Information We Collect
We collect only what is necessary for the purpose you have contacted us about. This may include:
- Your name and contact details — such as email address and phone number — when you use our contact form or reach out directly
- Information about the estate matter you are dealing with, where you choose to share it in initial correspondence
- Technical data such as your browser type and approximate location, collected automatically when you visit this website, used only to understand how the site is being used
- Correspondence records if you exchange emails or messages with us
We do not collect sensitive personal data unless it is strictly relevant to providing the service you have requested, and we will always let you know when we are doing so.
3. How We Use Your Information
Information you provide is used to:
- Respond to your enquiry and provide the service you have asked about
- Maintain a record of our professional relationship where a matter is ongoing
- Comply with our legal and professional obligations
- Improve the way this website functions and communicate with visitors more helpfully
We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling, and we do not sell or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
4. Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal information on the following grounds:
- Contractual necessity — when you engage us for a service, processing is necessary to fulfil that engagement
- Legitimate interests — for basic administrative tasks and improving our services, provided your interests do not override ours
- Legal obligation — where we are required by Thai law or applicable regulations to retain or process certain records
- Consent — for any optional communication, such as updates or general information, you may choose to receive
5. How Long We Keep Your Information
We keep personal information only as long as necessary. For active client matters, records are retained for the duration of the engagement plus any legally required retention period under Thai law — typically up to seven years following the conclusion of a matter.
Enquiries that do not proceed to a formal engagement are kept for a reasonable period to allow us to respond and, if relevant, to recall earlier contact if you return. After that, they are removed from our systems.
6. Sharing Your Information
We do not share your information with third parties except:
- Where you have asked us to communicate with a specific court, registry, or body on your behalf
- Where we are legally required to do so
- With trusted service providers who support our operations — such as secure document storage — who are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations
Any such sharing is limited strictly to what is needed and conducted with care.
7. Cookies and Website Analytics
This website uses cookies to help it function correctly and to understand how visitors are using it. You can find more detail about the cookies we use — and manage your preferences — in our Cookie Policy.
We do not use cookies to build profiles for advertising purposes.
8. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Request access to the personal information we hold about you
- Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete
- Ask us to delete information in certain circumstances
- Object to or request restriction of how we process your information
- Withdraw consent where processing was based on your consent
To exercise any of these rights, please write to us at [email protected]. We will respond within a reasonable time and without charge.
9. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. This includes using secure communication channels and restricting access to client records to those who need it.
No transmission over the internet can be entirely without risk, but we take our obligations seriously and continually review the measures we have in place.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practice or in applicable law. Any material changes will be noted at the top of this page with an updated date. We encourage you to check back occasionally if this matters to you.
