Grobstein Teeple LLP (“Grobstein Teeple,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit www.gtllp.com (the “Site”) or otherwise interact with us, and explains the privacy rights available to you, including rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”).
This policy applies to visitors, prospective clients, and business contacts. It does not cover information we process solely on behalf of clients in the course of providing professional services, which is governed by our engagement terms and professional obligations.
1. Who We Are
Grobstein Teeple LLP is an accounting and consulting firm headquartered in Woodland Hills, California, with offices across the United States. Grobstein Teeple LLP is the business responsible for the personal information described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We have collected the following categories of personal information within the last 12 months:
| Category (CCPA) | Examples we collect | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Identifiers | Name, email address, telephone number, postal address, IP address | You (forms, email, calls); your organization or representatives; automatic collection |
| Professional or employment-related information | Job title, company name, industry, professional affiliations | You; your organization; publicly available sources |
| Internet or other electronic network activity | Pages viewed, links clicked, browser and device details, approximate location derived from IP, cookie identifiers | Automatic collection via cookies and similar technologies (see our Cookie Policy) |
| Commercial information | Records of services inquired about or engaged | You; our records |
| Communications | Messages you send us through forms, email, or otherwise | You |
We do not collect sensitive personal information through this Site, and we do not knowingly collect information from individuals under 16 through this Site.
3. How We Use Personal Information
We use personal information for the following business purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries and provide information, advice, and professional services you request
- To send newsletters, insights, event invitations, and marketing communications where you have signed up or otherwise consented; you can opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link in each message or by contacting us
- To operate, analyze, secure, and improve the Site and our services
- To comply with legal, regulatory, and professional obligations, and to establish or defend legal claims
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or transfer of all or part of our business, in which case personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity subject to this policy
4. How We Disclose Personal Information
We disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients:
- Service providers acting on our behalf under contract, including website hosting, IT support, analytics, email and communications, and form-processing providers
- Professional advisers such as lawyers, auditors, and insurers where necessary
- Government authorities, courts, or regulators where required by law, subpoena, or valid legal process, or to protect our rights
- A successor entity in the event of a business transfer
We do not sell personal information for money. However, our use of certain advertising and analytics cookies may constitute “sharing” of personal information (identifiers and internet activity) with advertising partners for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined by the CCPA. You can opt out at any time via the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link in our footer, through our cookie preference center, or automatically by using a browser that sends the Global Privacy Control signal.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy, which includes a current list of the cookies in use. Non-essential cookies (analytics, functional, advertising) are set only with your consent, which you can give, refuse, or withdraw at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link in our footer.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control: we honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for the browser you are using. Because there is no common industry standard for legacy “Do Not Track” browser signals, we do not respond to DNT signals other than GPC.
6. Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
- Know/Access: request the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the purposes, and the categories of third parties to whom it was disclosed
- Delete: request deletion of personal information we have collected from you, subject to legal exceptions
- Correct: request correction of inaccurate personal information
- Opt out of sale or sharing: direct us not to sell or share your personal information
- Limit use of sensitive personal information: not applicable, as we do not collect sensitive personal information through this Site
- Non-discrimination: we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights
How to submit a request: use either of the following methods:
- Our online request form:
/privacy-request/ - Email:
[email protected]
We will confirm receipt within 10 business days and respond within 45 calendar days (extendable by a further 45 days where reasonably necessary, in which case we will tell you). We may need to verify your identity by matching information you provide against information we hold; we will not ask for more than is necessary. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf; we will require proof of the agent’s authority and may still need to verify your identity directly.
Residents of other states with comprehensive privacy laws may have similar rights and may use the same contact methods.
7. Retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, to comply with legal, regulatory, and professional record-keeping obligations, and to establish or defend legal claims. In general: [INSERT AGREED RETENTION CRITERIA, e.g. “website inquiry records are retained for X years; newsletter data until you unsubscribe; analytics data for X months”]. When information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it.
8. Security
We use appropriate technical, physical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Third-Party Sites
The Site may link to third-party websites. Their privacy practices are their own responsibility, and a link is not an endorsement. Review their policies before providing personal information.
10. Changes to This Policy
We review this policy at least once every 12 months and whenever our practices change. We will post the updated policy here with a revised effective date, and for material changes we will provide more prominent notice on the Site.
