During the course of an engagement, or when consideration is being given to such an engagement, we may collect and process personal, financial or related data about our clients, prospective clients, their affiliates or certain of their owners and employees. In addition, Dunaway may collect and maintain information relating to the services provided. The information that we may collect and maintain may be obtained from the client, generated as a result of the services provided, or received from third parties.

This Website is not directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If Dunaway obtains actual knowledge that it has obtained personal information about a child under the age of 13, that information will be immediately and permanently deleted from our records.

How Data Is Used

We will use your personal data to process your request, to contact you, and to provide you with the information that you voluntarily have requested. We may also use personal and other data that we receive from clients or prospective clients:

We will process personal and other data if and to the extent applicable law provides a lawful basis for us to do so and in particular:

  • if the data subjects have consented to us doing so;
  • if we need it to perform the contract we have entered into with a data subject;
  • if we need it to comply with a legal obligation; or
  • if we (or a third party) have a legitimate interest that is not outweighed by the data subjects’ interests or rights. Such legitimate interests include the provision of services by us, administrative processes within Dunaway, and direct marketing.

Dunaway reserves the right to share your personal information with Dunaway’s employees, agents, administrators, accountants, financial advisors and legal advisors; with Dunaway’s employed or contracted engineering, architecture, environmental, survey, and/or GIS mapping service providers, along with non-Dunaway providers who might also provide you with such services; and with those third parties who help manage, administer, distribute and/or operate the Website and its services and/or features (e.g., web hosting companies, website administrators, mobile app distribution platforms, support services companies, credit card or other payment processing companies), as needed in order for them to perform such services.
