However,  such law firms are separate and independent from us with their own Websites, agreements and terms. As we are not related entities, you will have to review their sites and agreements to understand their Policies and Terms. In the normal course of business, most Viewers/claimants will quickly be matched with a law firm from which they may choose to employ as their attorney.  As a consequence, KL will have only a small amount of personal data obtained from potential Claimants and all or most of that data will promptly be made available to that law firm. That data will not be considered Confidential as to that law firm, KL, call centers or other entities involved in this process.  More detailed information can be found in our Privacy Policy.
