LegalPlatform Privacy Policy
LegalPlatform is committed to protecting your privacy. This Policy describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit our website and our practices for using, maintaining, protecting and disclosing that information. We may from time to time update this Policy, so we invite you to review this web page periodically. In the event this Policy changes, we will inform you by posting an updated Policy on this web page. All changes will go into effect on the date noted below. The new Policy will apply to all past and current users of our website and will replace any prior Policies.

This policy applies to information we collect:

  • On this website;
  • Via emails, texts, and other electronic messages you submit through this website;
  • Through any mobile and/or desktop applications you download from this website;
  • When you interact with our advertising and/or applications on third party websites or services, if they include links to this policy

What Information We Collect and How We Use It
We do not collect personally identifiable information from individuals unless they provide it to us voluntarily and knowingly. Visitors to our website are not required to register or provide information to us in order to view our website.

If you choose to establish a LegalPlatform account, we collect the following information about you: name, address, phone number, email address, username and password. We use the information you supply for the purpose of providing the services you have requested, and as described in this Policy. In addition, we may from time to time contact you via email or regular mail unless you opt-out by following the instructions in the “opting out” section of this Policy.

If you purchase from us, we collect the following information about you: name, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, billing information including credit card numbers and expiration dates as well as the names, addresses and phone numbers of gift recipients (if any). We use your name, address, phone number and billing/credit card information to process your order or as otherwise described in this Policy.

The email address you provide is used for internal purposes, such as confirming and tracking your orders or as otherwise described in this Policy. We may also contact you occasionally via email or regular mail to keep you up-to-date on the latest LegalPlatform news. If you would like to opt out of receiving mailings from us, just let us know (see contact information below). Also, gift recipients may, from time to time, receive offers from us regarding new products and services that we think may be of interest to them. We allow gift recipients the option to opt out of receiving future marketing-related communications from us.

In certain instances, we may disclose your personally identifiable information when we have reason to believe that it is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against persons or entities who may be causing injury to you, LegalPlatform or others. We may also disclose your personally identifiable information when we believe the law requires it. In the event of a merger, consolidation or sale or transfer of all or substantially all of our company or its assets, personal information collected by our website may be transferred to the purchaser or the new company.

Updating, Deleting, Editing Your Account Information
After setting up an account with LegalPlatform, you can access, review, correct and/or delete all of the personally identifiable information you provided to us by logging into your account. You may also ask us to assist by emailing us at support@legalplatform.com.

Use of Cookies
Our website uses “cookies.” A cookie is a small file that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We use cookies to help us determine whether a visitor to our website has visited our website before or if he or she is a new visitor. Cookies also allow LegalPlatform account registrants to save time during checkout on return visits. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but they should also allow you to instruct your browser to prevent the use of cookies. Please note that if you disable cookies, certain aspects of our website will not function properly, such as the shopping cart. Our cookies do not track any personal information about you or provide us with any way to contact you, and the cookies do not extract any information from your computer.

We may use third-party analytical tools to help us better understand how you use our website. These analytical tools will place cookies on your computer to collect information. The information collected by these analytical tools will tell us things like which search engine referred you to our website, how you navigated around our website and what you purchased. This information will help us to better serve you with more personalized information and product offerings. The third party provider of the analytical tools may only use your personal information to perform services for us and is contractually required to maintain all of the information it collects and analyzes for us securely and in confidence. This third party may not share your personal information with anyone else, or use it for any other purpose, except on an aggregate, non-identifiable basis.

Children Under the Age of 13
We encourage parents and guardians to take an active interest in their children’s use of the Internet. This website is not designed to collect personal information from children who are under 13 years of age, and we do not intend to or knowingly collect or solicit personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not provide personal information on our website without consent from your parent or guardian.

If we learn that we’ve collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of consent from a parent or guardian, we’ll immediately delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please let us know.

Disclosure of Your Information
We may disclose your personal information to any of our employees, contractors, subsidiaries, insurers, professional advisers, and/or agents as reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this policy. We may disclose your personal information:

  • To the extent that we are required to do so by law;
  • In connection with any ongoing or prospective legal proceedings;
  • To establish, exercise, or defend our legal rights;
  • To the purchaser (or prospective purchaser) or successor to any business or capital asset that we are contemplating selling; and
  • To any person who we reasonably believe may apply to a court or other competent authority for disclosure of that personal information where, in our reasonable opinion, such court or authority would be reasonably likely to order disclosure of that personal information.

We will not, without your express consent, supply your personal information to any third party for the purpose of their or any other third party’s direct marketing.

Third Party Service Providers
We sometimes employ other companies and individuals to perform services for us. For example, we may hire agencies to help administer consumer promotions, to analyze data, to process and fulfill orders you place, and to provide customer service. We may share your personally identifiable information with these parties, who have agreed to hold this information in confidence, not to use it for any purpose except to carry out the requested service, and to honor LegalPlatform’s privacy and security policies in the way this information is handled.

Data Security
We’ve implemented reasonable technical and organizational precautions to secure your personal information from the accidental loss, unauthorized access, misuse, disclosure, and/or alteration of your personal information, such as through encryption technology and secure servers. However, the transmission of information on the Internet is inherently insecure, and we cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the Internet. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our website. Any transmittal of personal information is at your own risk.

Additionally, you are largely responsible for the safety and security of your personal information. For example, if you have a password for accessing certain parts of our website, you are responsible for keeping that password confidential.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We’ll post any changes we make to our privacy policy on this page. If we make any material changes to how we treat our visitors’ personal information, we’ll notify you by email (if we have your email) and/or through a notice on our website. The date on which we last updated our privacy policy is identified at the top of this page. You are responsible for ensuring we have a current, active, and working email address for you, and for periodically checking this privacy policy for any changes.
