Privacy Notice
At FCK Legal, we don't fck around with your personal information.
Last updated: 4 MARCH 2023
This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) applies whenever Forstai Cyber Kinetics LLC (referred to in this Notice as “FCK Legal”, “we” or “us”) processes personal information about you – for example, by collecting it, using it, storing it, or disclosing it to others. It describes the contexts in which we process your personal information, who else might have access to it, and what rights you can exercise and how to exercise them.
FCK Legal operates in the State of Oregon, but does business with clients around the world. Because of that, we have drafted this notice to ensure that you are aware of information relevant to data protections applicable to a wide range of individuals, including those in the European Economic Area, United Kingdon, and California. It’s long and complex, but until global politicians make it easy for the rest of us, we’re doing our best. You can always contact us with questions at contact@fcklegal.com.
