Privacy Policy

What we collect. When you use one of our three case checks (personal injury, criminal charges or a DUI stop), we collect the details you enter into that calculator: the facts about your accident, charge or stop that the tool asks for. If you continue through our intake questions, we also collect your name, city and state, phone number, email address, date of birth, what you are hoping to get out of a match with an attorney, and a short description of what happened in your own words. If you ask us to follow up, we collect your name, email and phone number so a real person can reach you about your case. Only your name and a way to contact you are required; everything else is optional, though skipping case details makes it harder for us to match you with the right attorney.

Why we collect it. We collect contact information so we, and the attorney we match you with, can reach you about your case. We collect case details so a match goes to an attorney whose practice actually fits your situation. We ask for your date of birth on the intake form because generally only an adult can retain an attorney directly on their own behalf; it helps us confirm that before a match is made.

Who sees it. Your information is seen by our own team and by the independently licensed attorney or attorneys in our network your case is referred to for a possible match. This site runs on Cloudflare's infrastructure (Cloudflare Workers and a Cloudflare D1 database), which stores and processes this information on our behalf as our hosting provider. Our website runs on Cloudflare, which stores submitted information in our database, screens form submissions for automated abuse (Cloudflare Turnstile), and sends our notification and confirmation emails. When you use the guided intake, the answers you type (including your description of what happened and your date of birth) are processed by OpenAI to ask sensible follow-up questions and read dates written in any format; OpenAI processes this on our behalf and we do not send it your name, email, or phone number from the form. We also use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site; it collects usage information such as pages viewed and general device details, and we do not use it to identify you. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with anyone for their own advertising purposes.

State privacy rights. Depending on the state you live in, you may have rights to know what personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to have it deleted. These rights and how they work vary by state. To make a request, email chris@thelegal.team and we will respond and tell you what applies where you live.

Contact consent and texts. Submitting the case check or the intake questions means you agree that we, and an attorney we match you with, may contact you by phone, text or email about your case. Message and data rates may apply. Agreeing to be contacted is never a condition of getting matched with an attorney or of using this site. Reply STOP to any text to opt out of future texts.

Your choices. You can ask to see, correct, export or delete the information we hold about you at any time by emailing chris@thelegal.team.

Cookies. This site uses a session cookie only when someone signs in to the site. We do not use advertising, analytics or other tracking cookies.

Children. This site is intended for adults 18 and older, and our intake process asks for a date of birth to help confirm that. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

Changes. If we change this policy, we will post the updated version here with a new "last updated" date at the top.
