Privacy Policy

1. Privacy Statement

This Site is an attorney website. Information on this Site is provided for general informational purposes only and is not legal advice. Your use of the Site, or communication with us through the Site, email, phone, or text message, does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship.

By using the Site, contacting us, submitting information to us, or providing information to us, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect and Usage

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, such as when you submit an inquiry, complete a form, request a consultation, sign up for updates, communicate with us by email, phone, or text message, or otherwise interact with us. This may include:

name;
mailing address;
email address;
telephone number or mobile number;
information about your inquiry, consultation request, appointment request, or legal matter;
professional or employment-related information you choose to provide; and
any other information you voluntarily provide to us.

We may also automatically collect limited information about your use of the Site, such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring URLs, and dates and times of access.

We do not use the Site to request highly sensitive personal information unless specifically needed and transmitted through an approved secure method. Please do not send Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, financial account numbers, health information, criminal history details, immigration information, or other sensitive information through general website forms, unsecured email, or text message unless we have specifically instructed you to do so.

3. How We Use Information

We may use personal information and other information we collect to:

respond to your inquiries, comments, and requests;
communicate with you regarding consultations, appointments, legal services, intake, account, or administrative matters;
send newsletters, event invitations, legal updates, and other email communications, subject to your choices;
provide and improve the Site and our services;
maintain our records;
protect the security and integrity of our systems;
comply with legal and ethical obligations; and
enforce our rights and agreements.

Submitting information to us through the Site, email, or text message does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive information through the Site or by unsecured email or text message unless we have specifically instructed you to do so.

4. Cookies and Site Technology

We and our service providers may use cookies, analytics tools, and similar technologies to operate the Site, understand usage, improve functionality, and support website administration.

You can adjust your browser settings to remove or reject cookies, although doing so may affect certain Site functionality.

The Site does not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals.

5. Text Messages and SMS Communications

If you provide your mobile phone number to us through the Site, an intake form, a contact request, or another communication channel, you consent to receive non-marketing text messages from us at that number related to your inquiry, consultation, intake, appointment, legal services, account, or matter.

We do not use text messages for marketing or promotional purposes.

Text messages may include, as applicable:

responses to your inquiries;
appointment scheduling and reminders;
intake follow-ups;
requests for documents or information;
status updates;
account-related or service-related messages; and
other non-marketing administrative communications.

Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply. Not all mobile devices or carriers may be supported, and carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

You may opt out of receiving text messages from us at any time by replying STOP to a text message, where supported, or by calling us at 530-999-7545, emailing us at office@veritaslaw.us, or using another reasonable method of communication clearly directed to our office. We will honor opt-out requests within a reasonable time, subject to any legal or operational need to send limited follow-up communications relating to your request or an active matter.

We do not share mobile opt-in data or text messaging consent with third parties for their own marketing purposes. We may share your mobile number and related messaging data with service providers that help us deliver text messages, administer messaging services, maintain records, or support our communications, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations.

If you provide a mobile number that is not your own, or if your number changes or is reassigned, you agree to notify us promptly so that we can update our records.

6. Sharing of Information

Generally, we do not disclose personally identifiable information that we collect through your use of the Site to unaffiliated third parties without your consent, except as described in this Privacy Policy.

We may share information with our employees, attorneys, affiliates, contractors, consultants, website hosts, technology vendors, messaging providers, analytics providers, and other service providers to the extent necessary for them to perform services on our behalf.

We may also disclose information if we believe disclosure is required or permitted:

to comply with applicable law, legal process, court order, subpoena, or governmental request;
to prevent, investigate, detect, or address fraud, security incidents, criminal offenses, or attacks on the Site or our systems;
to enforce our agreements, policies, and legal rights;
to protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, our employees, our clients, users of the Site, or the public; or
in connection with an actual or proposed merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, dissolution, or sale or transfer of all or part of our business or assets.

We do not sell personal information or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising in the manner those terms are defined under applicable California law, unless we expressly state otherwise and provide any required rights or notices.

10. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information under our control. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to respond to inquiries, maintain our records, provide services, comply with legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, and ethical obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and protect our interests.

12. Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under eighteen years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the Site. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child in a manner inconsistent with applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

13. Links

Our Site may contain links to websites owned or operated by third parties. Information you provide to third-party websites is not subject to this Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.
