Together, Judigo Legal, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (referred to as “Judigo Legal,” “our,” “us,” or “we”) run websites, applications, software, and offer online goods and services. This is what we call the “site(s),” “service(s),” “our sites and services,” or “our websites and services.” This privacy policy (also referred to as “policy statement”) applies to our websites and services that we link directly to or display. Sites and services that have their own privacy policies or that do not show or link to this one are not covered by this privacy policy.

This privacy policy describes the information we collect, why we gather it, how we use it, and the options you have to access and change it. It applies to all users of our sites and services. Please acquaint yourself with our procedures and contact us with any queries. You hereby specifically consent to the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personal information as specified in this privacy policy by using our sites and services. The most recent version of this privacy statement will be in effect each time you use one of our websites or services. Please do not use our sites or services if you do not agree with our privacy policy.

1. Personal Data You Provide

Information that can be used to identify, track down, or get in touch with a specific person is referred to as personal information. This also includes any information that might be connected to personal information. Depending on the site or service you use, we may obtain the following personal data directly from you when you interact with it:

a. Contact details, which often consist of your name, phone number, email address, and/or user account name(s) on social media websites;

b. When necessary, account or registration information—which can include your name, email address, phone number, user account name, and password. If you are a lawyer or other professional services provider, you may additionally include the name of your company, address, phone number, state(s) where licensed to practice, bar number(s), and any professional disciplinary history;

c. Your submissions, which may include the information you choose to enter into forms, text boxes, checkboxes, and document uploads. This includes any data you provide to lawyers when utilizing our services, like online chat sessions and submitting legal questions;

d. Geographic Location Data, but only in the event that you have enabled a location-enabled website or service and your device communicates location data and/or your IP address;

e. Payment information, as may be needed for your purchases of products or services, which typically consists of your credit or debit card number, expiration date, and card verification number;

f. Information from social media interactions (such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, or Google+), interests, physical traits (height, weight), photos, biographical, health, and/or demographic data (gender), and other information that may be included in a personal profile or service;

g. Transaction Data, encompassing details regarding your interactions and usage of our websites, email correspondence, other forms of communication, and applications, as well as your dealings with retailers, associates, and service providers;

h. Responses to surveys;

i. Medical information you choose to provide to an attorney through an inquiry or chat communications, for an attorney to evaluate your legal inquiry;

j. Access to Your Data, but only when you use specific services or interactive features or provide us permission to obtain data on your behalf from another database, user, or third party.

Because you voluntarily provide us with the personal information in each of the above cases, you will be aware of the personal information we gather through our sites and services.

2. Additional Data That We Automatically Gather Using Cookies and Other Technologies

When you use our sites and services, certain technical information may be collected and stored by us or our third-party service providers. For example, our servers automatically receive and gather data about your computer and browser, such as your IP address, browser type, domain name from which you accessed the website or service, device size, and additional hardware or software details. To better serve content to your device and enhance your experience using our sites and services, we may collect information about your device, such as its type, general GPS location, and unique device identifier (UDID) if you access our sites and services from a mobile or other device.

We and our third-party service providers might also gather data about how you use our websites, such as the time and date of your visits, the sections or pages you view, how long you spend on them, how often you visit them, whether you visit sites outside of our network, your preferred language, and other click-stream information.

a. Tracking Technologies and Cookies

Cookies and other tracking technologies (such as browser cookies, pixels, beacons, mobile application identifiers, and Adobe Flash technology) may be used by us or our third-party service providers to measure how well our services are being used, enhance user experience, boost security, and display advertising. Cookies can be managed using other tools and browser settings. Please see our Cookie Policy for more details on how we use cookies. You agree that this privacy statement and our Cookie Policy will apply to the use of cookies, beacons, and HTML-based emails when you use our sites and services.

b. Opt-Out of Tracking

You have the option to refuse to be tracked online by specific third-party advertising organizations. You may opt-out by going to the websites of Network Advertising InitiativeOmniturePrivacyChoice, or Digital Advertising Alliance. Note that this does not automatically prevent you from receiving all advertisements—you will may still receive generic ads.

As of right now, we don’t react to “Do Not Track” browser requests. As a result, we may track how you navigate our websites and services as part of our efforts to collect the user data mentioned above. When you visit our sites and services through a link from a third-party website that complies with “Do Not Track” browser signals, the browser signal recognition for that preference will stop as soon as you get to our sites and services.

We recommend that you keep your personal information updated. Depending on the sites or services you are using, you may access or change your personal information in the following ways:

We might not be able to remove user-generated content or comments that you have left on our website. Furthermore, any contributions or content that arises from your public actions, as well as any removal or editing of such activities, may not be under our control. Requests that are impractical, demand a lot of technical work, jeopardize other people’s privacy, or are in our sole discretion otherwise unreasonable, may be denied.

Please email us at help@judigolegal.com with any questions regarding accessing and changing your personal information and preferences.

8. Preserving Personal Information

We save your personal data as long as your account is active or as long as it takes us to fulfill your request. Further, even after your account has been closed, we may keep your personal information if doing so is reasonably required to meet legal or regulatory requirements, settle disputes, stop fraud and abuse, uphold our Terms of Use or any other agreements you may have with us, or if deleting your personal information is not technically possible. Please note that legal inquiries and communications made through our web application (online chat) may be stored, used, and shared anonymously (without your identity or identifying information) even after your account has been canceled, for the improvement and development of our products and services.

9. Communications

Through our sites and services, we may communicate with you, and you with us, via onsite instant messaging, emails, SMS, or other electronic communication channels.

a. Text Messaging

We might offer text messaging services so that you can use your phone to send and receive messages from us.

b. Opting Out of Communications

Email newsletters and software updates are examples of communications that you may have requested or agreed to receive at some point in time. You can opt-out of getting these communications by one of the following ways:

– Clicking on the “opt-out” or “unsubscribe” option in emails, or following the opt-out/unsubscribe instructions in the communication (e.g, email or text message); or

– Emailing us at help@judigolegal.com.

c. Transactional, Account, and Services Communications

Communications received from users as well as communications sent by us or one of our account specialists are often transactional or relationship messages, such as account requests and responses, service requests and responses, and reminders. You may not be able to opt out of receiving these types of email messages since they are necessary for the operation of our sites and services.

d. Opting Out of Promotional/General Communications

Information on goods, services, and features is conveyed through general communications, which may also contain invitations to take part in surveys, special offers, and details about new goods, features, or services. You may opt out of receiving these types of communications by doing the following:

– Clicking on the “opt-out” or “unsubscribe” link in emails, or following the opt-out/unsubscribe instructions in each communication, such as an email or text message; or

– Emailing us at help@judigolegal.com.

10. Safeguarding Personal Information

We implement a wide range of technical, physical, and administrative safeguards, such as firewalls, Transport Layer Security (TLS), system alerts, and other information system security technologies, to prevent unauthorized access or use of the information we collect. We also regularly review and improve our information technology systems, facilities, and information collection, storage, and processing procedures. To prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, misuse, and alteration of your personal information, we use appropriate administrative, physical, technological, and data security measures and controls. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (collectively referred to as HIPAA) define “protected health information,” and we are required by law to take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI that is processed by and stored on our sites and services.

Credit card and payment processing is handled by other service providers. Billing information cannot be kept, retained, or used by these service providers for anything other than processing credit cards and payments on our behalf. We use transport layer security (TLS) technology to encrypt the transfer of payment information you provide so that it may be processed by our third-party service providers. This information is not stored on our systems.

Similarly, we do not store electronic chat data directly on our systems; instead, we use transport layer security (TLS) technology to encrypt transmissions between you and attorneys.

But it’s crucial to keep in mind that no solution can ever provide 100% security. As a result, we are unable to ensure that data transferred to or from our services is secure. We disclaim all liability and responsibility for illegal access to our servers and systems. You should always be aware that any personal or protected health information you disclose may be public knowledge, which means that others may gather and utilize it without your permission. Because of this, you should carefully consider whether to submit any sensitive information that you would prefer to remain private. You should also be aware that using the Internet and our sites and services is entirely at your own risk. In the end, you are in charge of keeping all of your personal information private, including any information related to your protected health. Regarding the security of your private or protected health information sent over the Internet, we are not liable to you or anyone else.

11. Connected Pages and Resources

Our websites and services might contain links to other websites or services run by third parties. We have no control over websites or services operated by third parties. We also have no control over third parties’ privacy policies. We make no representations about our association with third parties or our approval or disapproval of their policies or practices, even when we link to their website or display their profiles, banners, or ads.

Additionally, we might include social media tools on our websites and services that let you engage with us and exchange personal information with your social network(s). Your usage of these services may cause personal information about you to be collected or shared, depending on the features. We advise you to check the settings and privacy policies on the social media platform(s) you use.

12. Minors

We do not allow or authorize people under 18 years of age to use our sites or services. We don’t knowingly or intentionally collect personal information from children under the age of 18. We will immediately remove any personal information we may have inadvertently obtained from a child under the age of eighteen.

Our services might enable users who are at least 18 years of age (such parents, guardians, and healthcare professionals) to submit the personal data of minors. These users agree to take full responsibility for the information they submit, use, and transmit.

13. Foreign Users

We are headquartered in the United States. Our sites and services are intended for users in the United States only and are hosted, maintained, and operated in the United States or with cloud service providers who are headquartered in the United States or elsewhere. If you are located outside the United States, be aware that information you provide to us or that we obtain as a result of your use of our sites and services may be processed in, transferred to, and stored in the United States and in any other countries from where our cloud service providers operate. Please be aware that the privacy rules and regulations in particular countries may differ from those that apply in the nation in which you reside. By using our sites and services, you consent to the transfer of your information for processing and storage to the United States and any other countries from which our cloud service providers operate.

Unless an exception applies, we shall remove (and instruct our service providers to remove) such personal information from our records as soon as we receive and validate your request for deletion.

h. Exercising Your Rights

To exercise your access and deletion rights described above, or to appeal a decision regarding a previous request, send us an email at help@judigolegal.com.

We may require you to provide certain identifying information, such as your name, email address, and place of residence. We may also require additional supporting paperwork, such as proof of identification and residency, while processing your request. Personal information submitted with a request will only be used to confirm the requestor’s identity or authorization to submit the request.

Your request must also: (i) contain enough details to enable us to reasonably confirm that you are the person about whom we obtained personal information or that you are authorized to make the request; and (ii) be sufficiently detailed to enable us to evaluate, assess, and act upon your request.

A genuine request pertaining to your personal information may only be made by you or by someone you have given permission to act on your behalf and who is registered with the California Secretary of State. For your minor child, you may also submit a verifiable request. If you are submitting a request via an authorized agent acting on your behalf, that agent must show that they have written authorization to make the request, and you will need to confirm your identity with us directly unless that agent can show that they have a power of attorney in accordance with Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465.

If we are unable to validate your identity or your authority to make the request, we will not be able to respond to your request or give you access to your personal information. Personal information submitted in a verifiable consumer request will only be used by us to confirm the identity or authorization of the requestor.

We reserve the right to deny your request for the following or any other lawful reason:

– To fulfill the purpose for which we obtained the personal data, deliver the product or service you asked, take steps that are reasonably expected in the context of our continuing business relationship with you, or carry out other obligations under our agreement with you;

– To assess and prevent security incidents; defend against dishonest, fraudulent, or unlawful behavior; or bring legal action against individuals who engage in such behavior;

– To identify and repair bugs or errors that affect our products, sites and services;

– To exercise free speech, protect the right of another to do the same, or any other legal privilege;

– To abide by the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act;

– To participate in publicly funded or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that complies with all other applicable ethical and privacy laws, when deletion of the previously consented-to information would likely make the research impossible or gravely hinder its success;

– To permit internal applications that, given your relationship with us, are logically consistent with your expectations;

– To fulfill a legal requirement;

– For other internal, lawful purposes that are appropriate given the circumstances under which you provided the information.

i. Your Right to Correct Personal Information

Considering the nature of the personal information and the reasons for processing it, you have the right to request that we correct any erroneous personal information we may have about you. Unless it is impracticable, unreasonable, or requires an excessive amount of work, we shall take reasonable steps to rectify (and direct our service providers to correct) any erroneous personal information about you that we may have in a prompt and reasonable amount of time after we receive and validate your consumer request.

j. Opting Out of the Selling or Sharing of Your Personal Information

You have the right to refuse to have your personal information “sold” or “shared,” with some exceptions allowed by applicable data privacy laws. Unless an exclusion applies, we won’t sell or share your personal information once we receive, verify, and process your request.

Please read our Cookie Policy if you would like to opt out of having your personal information collected through cookies or other technologies sold.

If you would like to request that we not sell any of the personal information we have about you that we have obtained directly from you or from third parties, please email us at help@judigolegal.com.

If we legitimately believe that your request is fraudulent, we may reject it based on reasonable and documented evidence. After a year of your opt-out, we may ask you for your consent to sell or share your personal information.

The following transfers of your personal information are not considered “sales” or “sharing” under applicable data privacy laws:

– Transfers of personal information directed by you: When you use our sites and services to intentionally interact with us or a third party, or when you direct us to intentionally disclose your personal information;

– Opt-Outs: If you have chosen not to have your personal information sold or shared, we might nonetheless share an identifier on your behalf so that third parties are aware of your choice;

– Supplier of services: If both of the following requirements are satisfied, we may disclose your personal information to a service provider to carry out a business objective as previously indicated:

* We inform you of your right to opt-out as indicated in this privacy policy; and

* The user’s personal information is not collected, sold, shared, or used by the service provider in any way other than what is required to fulfill its business purpose.

k. Exercising Your Right to Opt Out

You can exercise your right to opt-out by sending us an email at help@judigolegal.com. You can also set up an opt-out preference signal in your device’s or internet browser’s security or privacy settings, if applicable.

l. No Discrimination

If you exercise any of your rights under applicable data privacy laws, we will not retaliate or discriminate against you. Unless as allowed by the relevant data privacy laws, we won’t:

– Refuse you products or services;

– Charge you higher amounts for goods or services, including giving you different discount rates or imposing penalties;

– Offer you goods or services of lesser quality or value;

– Indicate to you or threaten that you may receive goods or services for higher prices or of lesser quality or value;

Please note, however, that if the price difference of a good or service is reasonably related to the value of your personal information, we may then charge you a different fee or rate or offer a different level of service.
