- “Do Not Track” (DNT) and Universal Opt-Out Preference Signals
Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar feature that signals to web services that a visitor does not want to have their online activity and behavior tracked. If a web service operator elects to respond to a particular DNT signal, the web service operator may refrain from collecting certain personal information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and there is currently no industry consensus as to what constitutes a DNT signal. For these reasons, many web service operators, including HH LLP, do not proactively respond to DNT signals. For more information about DNT signals, visit https://allaboutdnt.com.New standards are being developed for a Universal Opt-Out Mechanism, such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”), which allow users with GPC-enabled browsers and devices to send a signal that will communicate the user’s request to opt-out of sales of their personal information and to opt-out of certain sharing of their personal information. The CPRA and other laws allow for the acceptance of Opt-Out Preference Signals such as the GPC, as an option for individuals to transmit an Opt-Out of selling/sharing personal information. If we detect and recognize such a signal from your device or browser, we will honor it.

We ask that you provide us with information so that we may reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we have collected
Personal Information or are an authorized representative of that person and to describe your request with enough detail for us to understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We may ask if the following (or similar) questions:

- We will use only the Personal Information you or your representative provide within your verifiable Consumer request to verify your identity or your authority to make the request
All requests to delete Personal Information may be subject to our internal information retention policies and/or to any applicable legal requirements.
Response Timing and Format
We will both acknowledge receipt of your initial request and respond to you with the results of our research into your verifiable Consumer request within the timeframe allowances specified within the CCPA/CPRA.
Any response we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the receipt of your verifiable Consumer request and may state reasons as to why we cannot comply with your request.
We will use a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information successfully to another entity.

Privacy Notice for Clients in Canada, the European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom
NOTICE EFFECTIVE DATE: December 2025
HH LLP respects your privacy and is committed to using responsible practices in the collection, maintenance, and use of your personal information. This privacy notice explains our information practices with respect to our legal services for our clients in Canada; the European Economic Area, which includes the European Union, Iceland, Norway, and Lichtenstein; and the United Kingdom.
While we do not have offices located in those countries, we may process any personal data that you provide to us (“Personal Data”) for our legitimate business interests. Specifically, we may process Personal Data to perform the legal services for which the Firm has been retained, to process client and employee data, to keep our client records current, to analyze and help us manage our practice, and for legal and regulatory compliance. The Firm’s legitimate interests may include assisting clients in complying with U.S. laws and regulations, in reporting or responding to U.S. agency requests or requirements, in asserting rights and claims under U.S. laws, and in complying with industry practices or industry self-regulation. Our legitimate interests also include monitoring and protecting our firm, its systems, network, infrastructure, computers, information, intellectual property and other rights from security intrusions, unauthorized access or acquisition of information, data and system breaches, hacking, industrial espionage and cyberattacks.
Our legal services may occasionally require us to disclose Personal Data to other third parties such as expert witnesses or other professional advisors in the U.S. or elsewhere. We may disclose Personal Data about you if we believe in good faith that the law requires it (such as a subpoena, court order or a law enforcement request), or if we reasonably believe it is necessary to protect our legal interests. Personal Data collected from you may be transferred to a third party in the unlikely event of a sale, acquisition, merger, or bankruptcy involving us.
We will process Personal Data in accordance with instructions in connection with our legal services, have appropriate organizational and technical measures against its unauthorized access or acquisition, and take reasonable steps to limit access to it and ensure confidentiality. We use commercially reasonable security measures to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to your Personal Data. However, we cannot and do not guarantee that these measures will be sufficient to protect against all efforts to gain unauthorized access to it. Your Personal Data will be used and stored in the United States, where data protection and privacy regulations may differ from those in other parts of the world.
If your personal data is subject to GDPR or UK GDPR, we will transfer personal data from the EEA or UK to a location outside the EEA or UK only when there has been a documented adequacy determination, or where we have confirmed adequate privacy protections and we have one of the mechanisms to transfer the data in place such as Standard Contractual Clauses or reliance on a derogation. If your personal data is subject to PIPEDA, we will transfer personal data from Canada to locations outside Canada only where we have confirmed adequate privacy protections. If we transfer personal data to a third party acting as our agent, we will also obligate the third party to have adequate privacy protections in place.
If our processing of your personal information is subject to GDPR, UKGDPR, and/or PIPEDA, and unless subject to an exemption, you may have the following rights with respect to your personal information:
- To request a copy of the personal information we hold about you and where possible, to transmit that data directly to another data controller.
- To request we correct any personal information about you.
- To request your personal information be erased when no longer necessary for us to retain such data.
- To withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal information.
- To request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
- Where there is a dispute in relation to the accuracy or processing of your personal information, to request a restriction be placed on further processing.
- To object to the processing of personal information (where applicable).
- To lodge a complaint with a data supervisory authority.
We will need to verify your identity to process any requests described in this Section and may deny your request if we are unable to verify your identity. Government or other identification may be required.
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), when we process your personal information, we will only do so in the following situations:
- We need to use your information to perform our responsibilities under our agreement with you.
- We have a legitimate interest in processing your personal information. For example, we may process your personal information to send you marketing communications, to communicate with you about the Client Services, and to provide and improve the Client Services.
- We have your consent to do so.
