The Law Office of Glenn C. McGovern (“the Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit https://glennmcgovern.com/, contact us, use our chat feature, or submit a contact or case-evaluation form (collectively, the “Website”).

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide, including:

• Contact information, such as your name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, preferred contact method, and preferred time to be contacted.
• Contact-form information, including the content of your question or message and any other information you choose to provide.
• Case-evaluation information, including whether you are contacting us for yourself or another person; the type, date, and location of an incident; lawsuit, deadline, or court-date information; alleged injuries, disability, death, medical care, mental or physical condition, lost wages, property damage, or other claimed damages; information about possible responsible parties; criminal charges, convictions, or pending proceedings; available evidence, witnesses, reports, recordings, photographs, medical or jail records; a narrative of events; the outcome you seek; current or former legal representation; referral information; and other information relevant to our evaluation of a potential matter.
• Communications, including information you provide by telephone, email, chat, text message, or other correspondence with us.

If you submit information about another person, you represent that you are authorized to provide it for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Information collected automatically

When you use the Website, we and our service providers may automatically collect technical and usage information, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, links clicked, approximate location derived from your IP address, dates and times of visits, and interactions with the Website.

We may collect this information through cookies, pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and similar technologies. See Section 6 below for more information.

2. How We Use Information

We may use information to:

• respond to inquiries and communicate with you;
• review and evaluate a potential legal matter;
• schedule consultations and provide legal services if we agree to represent you;
• conduct conflict checks and maintain records of inquiries;
• operate, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the Website and our services;
• understand Website use and measure the effectiveness of our content and outreach;
• detect and prevent spam, fraud, abuse, security incidents, and other harmful activity;
• comply with legal, regulatory, ethical, and professional obligations;
• establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; and
• carry out other purposes disclosed when information is collected or with your consent.

3. Case-Evaluation Forms and Attorney-Client Relationship

Submitting a contact form or case-evaluation form does not create an attorney-client relationship, does not mean that the Firm has agreed to represent you, and does not prevent the Firm from representing another person whose interests may be adverse to yours, except as required by applicable law or professional rules.

Information submitted by a prospective client will be handled in accordance with applicable law and professional obligations. However, you should not send documents or information that you consider highly sensitive, confidential, or time-critical unless and until the Firm requests them or confirms in writing that it represents you. Do not rely on a Website submission to protect a filing deadline, prescription period, court date, or other legal deadline.

Although we use safeguards intended to protect form submissions, no Internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

4. How We Disclose Information

We may disclose information in the following circumstances:

• Within the Firm. Attorneys, employees, and authorized personnel may access information when needed for the purposes described in this Policy.
• Service providers. We may disclose information to vendors that support our Website and business operations, such as website hosting and maintenance providers, form and database providers, email and communications providers, analytics providers, anti-spam and security providers, information-technology providers, and professional advisers. These providers may use information only to provide services to us or as otherwise permitted by their agreements and applicable law.
• Legal and professional obligations. We may disclose information when we reasonably believe disclosure is required by law, subpoena, court order, legal process, or professional obligation; is necessary to protect rights, safety, or property; or is needed to investigate fraud, abuse, or a security incident. Where applicable, disclosures are subject to legal and ethical duties governing attorney and prospective-client information.
• Business changes. Information may be disclosed in connection with a merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, succession, or similar business transaction, subject to applicable legal and professional obligations.
• With your direction or consent. We may disclose information when you ask us to or otherwise consent.

We do not sell personal information for money. We do not use information submitted through our contact or case-evaluation forms for third-party targeted advertising.

5. Third-Party Services and Embedded Content

The Website may use or link to third-party services. These may include:

• Gravity Forms to operate Website forms;
• CleanTalk and Google reCAPTCHA to detect and prevent spam and abuse;
• Google Analytics to understand Website traffic and use;
• Google Maps to provide location and directions;
• a third-party website chat or communications service; and
• embedded or linked social-media and video services, including Facebook and YouTube.

These providers may receive technical information, cookies, device identifiers, Website activity, or information you submit through a feature they operate. Their handling of information is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. A link to another site does not mean that we control or endorse its privacy practices.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies that are:

• necessary to operate, secure, and administer the Website;
• functional to remember preferences or enable Website features; or
• analytical to measure traffic, performance, and Website use.

You can control cookies through your browser settings and, if available, the Website’s cookie controls. Blocking some cookies may cause parts of the Website to work incorrectly. You may also use Google’s available browser tools or account settings to limit certain Google Analytics or advertising-related data collection.

The Website does not currently respond to all browser “Do Not Track” signals because there is no universally accepted technical standard. Where required by applicable law, we will process recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals as required.

7. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including to evaluate inquiries, perform conflict checks, communicate with you, provide services, maintain business and legal records, protect the Website, resolve disputes, and comply with legal, ethical, insurance, and professional obligations.

Retention periods vary based on the type and sensitivity of the information, the nature of our relationship with you, and applicable requirements. We may retain a record of a prospective-client inquiry even if the Firm does not accept the matter. When information is no longer reasonably needed, we may delete, destroy, or de-identify it, subject to backup and legal-retention requirements.

8. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. Nevertheless, no security measure, transmission, or storage method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial-account numbers, passwords, or original evidence through a Website form unless we specifically request that you use an approved secure method.

9. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

You may ask us to provide information about, correct, or delete personal information that we maintain about you. You may also object to or request limits on certain processing, withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, or opt out of nonessential marketing communications. We will consider and respond to requests as required by applicable law.

Some requests may be limited or denied where we need to retain information to comply with law or professional obligations, protect legal rights, maintain conflict-check records, preserve legal claims, protect security, or where an exception applies. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, but we may require proof of the agent’s authority and verification of your identity.

To submit a privacy request, contact us using the information in Section 14. If applicable law gives you a right to appeal our response, you may submit an appeal using the same contact information and state that your request is a “Privacy Appeal.”

10. Communications

If you contact us or request a response, we may communicate with you by the method you provide or select, including telephone, email, or text message. Message and data rates may apply to text messages. You may ask us to stop nonessential promotional emails by using the unsubscribe method in the message, and you may opt out of promotional text messages by replying STOP. These choices do not prevent communications relating to an inquiry, an existing attorney-client relationship, legal services, security, or other non-promotional matters.

11. Children’s Privacy

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorization, contact us so that we can review and address the situation. A parent, guardian, or authorized relative contacting us about a minor’s potential legal matter may provide information necessary for that inquiry.

12. Visitors Outside the United States

The Firm is located in the United States, and information collected through the Website may be processed and stored in the United States. If you access the Website from another country, your information may be transferred to a jurisdiction whose data-protection laws differ from those where you live.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised Policy on this page and change the “Last updated” date. Material changes will be communicated in another manner where required by law.
