Privacy Policy

Pyeong An Law Firm processes personal information to receive and review applications, contact applicants, save and restore draft applications, respond to website inquiries, protect website access and understand website usage.

This policy concerns use of this website. Information processed for an engagement or individual legal matter is subject to the notice applicable to that matter.

• Required for online applications: photograph, Korean name, gender, date of birth, email, mobile number, address, preferred practice area, at least one education record, personal statement and records of consent to collection and use.
• Additional information entered or uploaded by applicants: Hanja and English names, home and emergency contact details, military service, veterans and disability information, education, grades and class rank, bar examination information, employment, internships and overseas experience, languages, qualifications, awards, other entries, personal statement files and supporting documents.
• Inquiries: contact details, email and inquiry content provided by the person making an inquiry, used as necessary to respond.
• Information arising during use: access requests and IP addresses, hashed IP and email values for request limits, draft identifiers, visited pages, times, browser or device environment and analytics cookie identifiers.

Entries may include health-related information such as disability status. Read the collection, use and sensitive information consent notice on the application screen. Redact unnecessary resident registration numbers and other people's personal information from supporting documents before submission.

Information is received through application entries, uploads, draft saves and email or telephone inquiries. You may refuse required collection and use consent, but cannot submit an online application without it.

• Draft applications and attachments: 14 days from the last draft save. Saving again renews the period.
• Submitted online applications and attachments: one year from the vacancy's hiring end date. If no hiring end date exists, the application deadline is used; if neither date exists, the submission date is used.
• Website inquiry information: retained until the purpose, such as responding to the inquiry, has been fulfilled.
• Request-limit hashes: values used to limit daily recruitment requests and email sending are retained for 24 hours.

Expired online applications are deleted together with their linked attachments. Where information must be retained under law, the period and scope specified by that law apply.

The application periods above concern records in the online application system. Email copies and sending records, access information and analytics are subject to separate service retention settings. Please use the contact details below for inquiries about those records.

Website inquiries and application records are used for their stated purposes. Disclosure to third parties for another purpose requires the user's consent or a basis specified by applicable law.

External services used to operate the website, store records, send emails and analyse usage, and the related information, are described below.

The following external services support website operation, storage of application materials, notification emails and usage analytics. Email sending takes place when the sending service is connected.

The servers and processing infrastructure of these external services may be located outside Korea, so information may be transmitted or stored abroad while the services are used.

Please use the contact details below for questions about overseas services' processing of personal information or to request refusal of a transfer.

Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction or deletion, suspension of processing or withdrawal of consent. Contact us by email or telephone below; we will explain the procedure after confirming your identity. Do not send unnecessary information such as a resident registration number with your request.

Information is deleted when its retention period ends or when its purpose, such as answering an inquiry, is fulfilled and it is no longer needed. The online application system tracks application records and linked attachments for deletion.

Application records and attachments are removed from their respective data and file stores. For records that must be retained under law, the scope and period specified by that law apply. You may contact us below to request deletion or information about retention of records remaining in email.

Online application records require administrator authentication. Attachments use private storage and access checks to restrict viewing. Do not share draft restoration links or draft identifiers with other people.

The website uses Google Analytics and Naver Analytics. Visited pages, referral paths and browser or device information are used for statistics, and cookies may be stored or read to count visitors. Access information such as the visited page address and IP address may be sent to Google. See Google's information about partner websites and Naver's Privacy Policy for further information.

You can delete or restrict cookies in your browser's privacy settings. The Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on can limit analytics collection.

A draft identifier is kept in your browser's local storage so that you can resume an application. Application content is stored on the server. Clear site data after using a shared device. Blocking or clearing browser storage may limit features such as resuming a draft.
