Hall Render cannot be responsible for disclosures of your Personal Information due to errors in transmission or unauthorized acts of third parties, and encourages you to exercise prudence in selecting the information you send via the Internet, including via email. Please do not send confidential or sensitive information to Hall Render through the Website or via email until you speak with one of Hall Render’s attorneys and receive authorization to do so.
