Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 26, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Amparo Law Firm PLLC (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “the firm”) collects, uses, and protects the information you provide when you visit amparolawfirm.com or contact us through the site, by phone, by email, or in person. This Policy applies to information collected through the firm’s online and offline interactions with prospective clients, clients, referring attorneys, and other site visitors.
Attorney-Client Relationship
Submitting information through this website, sending an email, or speaking with our firm by phone does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship is formed only upon execution of a written engagement letter or retainer agreement. Please do not send confidential or sensitive information to the firm until you have spoken with an attorney and a representation engagement has been confirmed in writing.
Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
- Information you provide directly. When you submit an intake form, request a free case evaluation, call the firm, or send an email, you may provide your name, contact information (phone, email, address), a description of your potential legal matter, and other details relevant to evaluating your inquiry.
- Information automatically collected. When you visit our website, we may automatically collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring website, pages viewed, and time spent on our site. This is collected through standard web analytics tools.
- Cookies and similar technologies. Our website uses cookies to improve site functionality, analyze site usage, and remember your preferences. You can disable cookies in your browser settings.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Evaluate your potential legal matter and determine whether we may be able to assist you
- Communicate with you about your inquiry, your case, or your engagement with the firm
- Provide legal services to clients and prospective clients
- Comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations
- Improve our website, services, and client communications
- Protect the firm, our clients, and our visitors from fraud, security threats, and unauthorized access
How We Share Information
We treat the information you provide as confidential. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
- Co-counsel and referral attorneys. If your matter is referred to or co-handled with another attorney, we may share relevant information with that attorney to evaluate or pursue your case.
- Service providers. We use third-party service providers for limited purposes (case management software, secure document storage, email, electronic signature). These providers are contractually obligated to protect the confidentiality of the information they handle on our behalf.
- Legal obligations. We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or regulatory request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of the firm, our clients, or others.
- Consent. We will share information for other purposes only with your express consent.
Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information you provide against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is fully secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain client and prospective-client information for as long as necessary to provide legal services, comply with our professional and ethical obligations as attorneys (including record-retention requirements under New York Rules of Professional Conduct 1.15 and applicable state bar rules), satisfy our legal obligations, and resolve disputes. After applicable retention periods, we securely destroy or de-identify the information.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction of residence, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or delete information we maintain about you. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information below.
California Residents
If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including the right to know what categories of personal information we collect about you and the right to request deletion of personal information we maintain. We do not sell personal information.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verified parental consent.
