Updated: March 28, 2022

Legal Document Preparers, LLC (hereafter referred to as “Legal Document Preparers,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or as the context may require) is committed to protecting privacy rights in the information age. Given the crucial nature of legal document preparation services, we are serious about ethics in how your personal information is collected and stored. We do not sell personal information under any circumstances. This Privacy Policy and our company’s internal policies and practices keep your personal information secure and ensure that your information is only used to serve you consistent with this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, process, and disclose your personal information. This Privacy Policy applies to interactions offline, through the Legal Document Preparers website (www.legaldocexpert.com), as well as through Legal Document Preparers’s subsidiaries and affiliates.

The scope of this Privacy Policy covers both your use of the Legal Document Preparers website and any other ways in which you may interact with Legal Document Preparers, such as when you speak to us on the phone or send text messages via SMS, MMS, or IM. It also describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your personal information.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into our Terms & Conditions of Use and service agreements, and therefore governs your use of Legal Document Preparers’s services. By using Legal Document Preparers’s services, you accept the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you have questions or concerns about your privacy, or would like to exercise any of your rights around how data about you is used, you can let us know using the request form located here.

1. Information We Collect

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain what types of Personal Information we may collect. The Personal Information collected depends on the type of interaction we have with you (such as calling, visiting our website, or using any other communication method), the types of products a client considers or purchases, and what information Legal Document Preparers’s clients choose to share with us. It also includes the information that we may collect about people in connection with our employment recruiting activities. While this section includes all of the information that we may collect about clients, we will rarely collect all of these types of information about any single person.

As used in this Privacy Policy, Personal Information means information that relates, and is capable of being linked, to a particular person. It does not include de-identified or aggregate information.

Legal Document Preparers potentially collects the following categories of information about clients, some of which may be collected or maintained in a manner such that it can be considered Personal Information:

Identifiers: Examples of the types of identifiers that Legal Document Preparers may collect include real names, nicknames, postal addresses, online identifiers, Internet Protocol addresses (“IP addresses”), email addresses, account numbers, Social Security numbers, driver license numbers, passport numbers, and other government identification numbers.

Other types of information: Examples of other types of information include physical characteristics or descriptions of you, telephone number, insurance policy number, education, employment, financial information including bank account, credit card, and debit card numbers, health insurance information, pre-employment skill testing results, and information collected as part of performing background checks for gun registration related services. It also includes additional information provided to Legal Document Preparers directly by you, such as when you complete a questionnaire or answer a survey.

Characteristics protected under some laws: Examples of the types of characteristics that Legal Document Preparers may collect include age, national origin, citizenship, marital status, medical information, sex, sexual orientation, and veteran or military status.

Commercial information: Examples of the types of commercial information that Legal Document Preparers may collect includes records of business and other property owned, products or services purchased, obtained, or considered from Legal Document Preparers or our partners, and other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies.

Internet information: Examples of the types of internet or other electronic network activity information that Legal Document Preparers may collect includes browsing history, search history, information about the device the client is using to access our website or applications, and information regarding a client’s interaction with Legal Document Preparers’s or our partners’ websites, applications, or advertisements. We may also collect information from visitors to our website such as browser settings, operating systems, referring/exit pages, and clickstream data. When we send you an email, Legal Document Preparers may also collect information, including about how you interact with that email.

Geolocation information: Legal Document Preparers may collect information about where a client resides or is otherwise located.

Audio and visual information: Legal Document Preparers may make audio recordings of calls with clients. We may make visual recordings of clients when they visit our premises or when clients agree that Legal Document Preparers may take their photograph or videotape them for the purposes of rendering a service to them. We may also collect visual images of clients when they are provided to us in connection with a service we are rendering, such as when they are submitted as part of a trademark order.

Professional and employment-related information: Examples of the types of professional and employment-related information Legal Document Preparers may collect includes information about professional status and affiliations, employment history, salary expectations, and employment status.

We do not collect biometric or education information that is maintained by an educational institution or party acting on an educational institution’s behalf. We also do not collect inferences about clients, although as described below, we may internally create inferences based on the information that we do collect.

2. Where We Collect Information

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain where and how we collect data about clients. We receive information about clients from several categories of sources.

Clients: The vast majority of the information that Legal Document Preparers collects comes directly or indirectly from the client that it relates to. Information that is collected directly from you is information that you provide when you complete a service agreement offline or form online, use a chat feature, speak to us on the phone, or send us a text message. We may also collect information indirectly about you when you interact with our website, through the use of cookies and other tracking technologies. Indirect collection is described in more detail in the section below called “How Legal Document Preparers Uses Cookies and Similar Technologies.”

Related Clients: We may collect information about you from someone you know. For instance, if you are a shareholder in a business that is formed through Legal Document Preparers, we may be given information about you in order to complete the formation.

Service Providers: We may collect information about you from our Service Providers. As used in this Privacy Policy, Service Providers means entities that Legal Document Preparers has contracted with to provide us with services to help fulfill our business needs. An example of the type of information that we may receive from a Service Provider is information about whether any Legal Mail has been received as part of our Registered Agent services. Service Providers may also assist us in collecting information both directly and indirectly from you.

Professionals (including Power of Attorney and other Professionals): We may collect information about you from the independent professionals whom you may designate as your representative in your relationship with us. An example of the type of information that we may receive from these professionals includes the fact that a consultation has occurred. While we cannot control what information professionals may legally share with us, Legal Document Preparers does not intend to collect any information from attorneys where the collection would result in a waiver of the attorney-client privilege.

Business Partners and Affiliates: We may collect information about you from our business partners and affiliates. An example of the type of information that we may receive from business partners and affiliates is information about the product you purchased from them after you indicated an interest in an offer that Legal Document Preparers presented to you.

Publicly/Commercially Available Information: We may collect information related to you from publicly available sources of information, including government records, social media sites, and other commercially available sources of client information. Examples of the type of information we may collect from publicly available sources are whether your entity is in good standing with a Secretary of State while we render a service to you or prepare a work product.

Unrelated Parties: We may receive information related to you from people and entities with whom Legal Document Preparers does not have a direct relationship. An example of the type of information that we may receive from unrelated third parties is documents that we receive on your behalf in our role as your Registered Agent.

3. How We Use the Information We Collect

Legal Document Preparers is a small business with few relationships with other businesses. However, we do use technology in the process of fulfilling our obligation to clients and parties with whom we enter into agreements. In some instances, we may combine information that we have collected from multiple sources in order to fulfill these purposes. Legal Document Preparers potentially uses each category of information that we collect for each of the following purposes.

If, in the future, Legal Document Preparers wishes to use information about you in a manner that is not consistent with the purposes outlined below, we will seek your consent prior to the expanded use if and where we are legally required to do so.

Providing Products and Services: Legal Document Preparers collects information for the purpose of providing products and services. We may also use information to respond to inquiries from potential clients who are interested in learning more about our products and services. Examples of the types of uses of client information for these purposes include producing and delivering documents purchased by clients, administering the Legal Document Preparers website, and displaying content based on client preferences.

Security: Legal Document Preparers collects information for the purpose of ensuring that we maintain appropriate security over computer networks and our physical facilities. We may also collect information for the purposes of detecting fraud or other suspicious activities.

These obligations may include satisfying screening requirements prior to assisting with entity formations, maintaining records as required in our role as Registered Agent, or responding to subpoenas for information.

For example, Legal Document Preparers uses information to analyze how visitors interact with our website, where visitors to our website arrive from and exit to, and gaining insights into the types of clients that may be interested in our products and services. We may also use information to develop inferences from the information we collect regarding client preferences, characteristics, predispositions, behaviors, and attitudes.

Operational Purposes: Legal Document Preparers collects information for use for our operational purposes, and the operational purposes of our service providers and business partners. For instance, Legal Document Preparers may use information for maintaining our website and other infrastructure, training and quality assurance, for conducting surveys, to promote our brand, and to use in connection with our relationships with service providers and business partners. We may also use information collected as part of our talent acquisition activities to make employment decisions about prospective candidates.

Financial Reporting: Legal Document Preparers collects information for use in various types of financial reporting and other similar internal uses. Examples of the types of financial reporting that Legal Document Preparers may use client information in connection with internal budgets and projections, calculation of compensation, and reporting to investors.

In addition to the purposes listed above, Legal Document Preparers may also use de-identified or aggregate data that is not capable of being linked to any individual client for additional purposes not listed above.

Selling of Personal Information: Legal Document Preparers does not sell Personal Information to third parties and will not sell Personal Information. If, in the future, Legal Document Preparers does decide to sell Personal Information, any Personal Information collected prior to updating this Privacy Policy will be treated as if a valid request to opt-out from third party sales had been submitted by the client that the information relates to.

4. How We Share Information and Who We Share It With

Legal Document Preparers does not have a large staff or numerous business partnerships. Your information is not generally shared except on a need-to-know basis. Here, we explain who we share client information with and under which circumstances we may do so.

Service Providers: Legal Document Preparers may share information about clients with Service Providers who assist us with completing the business purposes outlined in the “How We Use the Information We Collect About Clients” section. These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them for any other purpose other than providing services to Legal Document Preparers or to you.

Professionals (including Attorneys and other Professionals): Legal Document Preparers may share client information with the independent professionals that you authorize or are involved with in your legal matters.

Business Partners and Affiliates: Legal Document Preparers may share information with business partners and affiliates in limited circumstances. These include:

  • If you express interest in an offer made by a business partner, we may provide information about you in connection with the offer you have selected. If you later decide to opt-out from allowing Legal Document Preparers to share your information with business partners for their marketing purposes, you may do so by using our request form or by phone at 1-888-208-0409. To the extent that Legal Document Preparers has already shared your information prior to your decision to opt-out, you may opt out from future marketing by contacting our business partners directly.

  • When you purchase a service from us that is bundled with a product offered by one of our business partners, we will share information about you with those business partners so that they can provide you with the product or services included with your purchase. These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them about you for their own marketing purposes without first asking you directly for your permission.

Related Clients: In limited circumstances, we may provide information about you to someone you know. For instance, we may provide information connected to your account with Legal Document Preparers to your authorized contacts.

Government Entities: Legal Document Preparers may share information about clients with government entities in order to fulfill the products purchased by our clients. Certain Personal Information becomes public record when documents are filed with the federal or state government, or with a court. For example, a corporation’s name, business address, and registered agent name become public information when its articles of incorporation are filed. A Secretary of State may publish this information to its website or provide this information to third parties for a fee. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office publishes the names and addresses of trademark registrants. This Privacy Policy does not cover these or similar third-party actions.

Public Postings: Legal Document Preparers may publicly share information about clients, such as by displaying the information on our website or having the information published in publicly available media, in a limited number of circumstances.

  • We may share information publicly when it is necessary in order to render a service that has been purchased by a client. For example, in some states, fictitious business names, including the name and address of the business owner, must be published in a newspaper.

  • We may display personal testimonials of satisfied clients received through email surveys on our website or other marketing.

  • When clients leave us reviews either on the Legal Document Preparers website, or on other publicly available websites, we may display these client reviews on the Legal Document Preparers website.

  • Our website includes areas where users may interact with each other, including a question and answer section. Any information that is provided in these areas of our website may be publicly available. You should use caution when deciding whether to disclose your Personal Information in these areas of the site. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your Personal Information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.

  • When we collect publicly available information, we may share that information on our website.

Registered Agent Requests: If you designate a person or company other than Legal Document Preparers to serve as the registered agent for your business entity, Legal Document Preparers may provide your name and contact information to that party, if the designee requests.

Required by Law: Legal Document Preparers may disclose client information as required by law, such as in response to a subpoena, a lawful request by a public authority, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, or similar legal process, and when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a legal request.

Related Parties: Legal Document Preparers may disclose client information with businesses controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Legal Document Preparers. If Legal Document Preparers is merged, acquired, or sold, or if some or all of our assets or equity are transferred, we may disclose or transfer client data in connection with the associated transactions.

In addition to the circumstances listed above, Legal Document Preparers may also share de-identified or aggregate data that is not capable of being linked to any individual client with additional entities not listed above.

Cookies: Legal Document Preparers and its partners may use the standard cookie feature of major browser applications and third-party service providers, including Google Analytics features, or employ internally developed cookies and tracking codes, that allow Legal Document Preparers to store a small piece of data on a visitor’s computer, or any other device a visitor uses to access our website, about his or her visit to the website or use of other plug-ins exchanging information with Legal Document Preparers.

If you visit other websites, Legal Document Preparers is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites.

Social Media Widgets: Our website includes social media features, such as the Facebook “like” button and widgets, such as the “Share this” button or interactive mini-programs that run on our site. These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features and widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our website.

Documents are delivered to you via USPS or similar delivery services such as UPS, or electronically, including through online storage platforms or email with optional PGP encryption.
