Privacy policy

What this site collects, who holds it, and what I never do with it, in plain words.

Effective

In short

The short version.

If you read nothing else on this page, read this.

  • I don’t sell your information.

    Not to marketers, not to anyone. I don’t rent it or trade it either.

  • No ad trackers follow you from this site.

    Nothing here builds a profile of you or follows you to other sites.

  • Your message comes to me.

    What you send through the form reaches my office so I can call you back. It isn’t used for anything else.

  • You can ask me to delete it.

    Call or write, and I’ll tell you what I have and remove whatever I’m not required to keep.

Where it goes

Where your information goes.

There are four ways information reaches me through this site. Here is each one, start to finish.

  1. The contact form

    What
    Your name, your phone number, your email if you give one, and your message.
    Why
    So I can call you back.

    Netlify’s privacy policy (opens in a new tab)

    1. You
    2. Netlify receives the form
    3. My office by email
  2. A phone call

    What
    Your phone number, and a voicemail if you leave one.
    Why
    So I can answer, and call you back if I miss you.

    Google Voice’s privacy policy (opens in a new tab)

    1. You
    2. Google Voice carries the call
    3. Me on the line
  3. Scheduling a consultation

    What
    What Calendly asks for on its own page: usually your name, your email and a time.
    Why
    So the consultation is on my calendar.

    Calendly’s privacy policy (opens in a new tab)

    1. You
    2. Calendly on its own site
    3. My calendar
  4. Just reading

    What
    Your IP address, your browser, and the pages you open, in the server’s logs.
    Why
    To send you the pages and keep the site secure.

    Netlify’s privacy policy (opens in a new tab)

    1. You
    2. Netlify hosts this site

Before you write

Before you write to me.

Keep the first message short. The details are better said on the phone, where I can ask the right questions and you can hear the answers.

Even if I don’t take your case, what you tell me while you’re deciding whether to hire me stays confidential.

How can we help you?

  • Your name and number
  • A sentence about what happened
  • The rest can wait for the call
Beside the Send button Sending this message does not create an attorney-client relationship.

If that ever changes, this section will say exactly what was added, and why.

The details

The details, for careful readers.

Links to other sites

This site links to Avvo for my reviews, to Google Maps for a view of the office building, and to Calendly for scheduling. Once you follow one of those links, you’re on their site, and their privacy policy applies, not this one.

How long I keep it

I keep a message as long as I need it to answer you, and longer only where the rules for lawyers require it. If you become my client, your file is kept the way every client file is. Netlify keeps its server logs for a short time under its own policy, then deletes them.

Security

Every page, and every message you send through the form, travels over an encrypted connection. Messages reach my office by email. No system is perfectly secure, which is one more reason to keep the details for our call.

Your choices

You can ask what information I have about you, ask me to correct it, or ask me to delete it. Call me at (720) 515-2044, send a message through the contact form, or write to me at 1580 Logan Street, Suite 600, Denver, CO 80203. I’ll answer you directly.

Children

This site is for adults. I don’t knowingly collect information from children under 13 through it. If you’re a parent worried about your child’s situation, call me.

Colorado residents

I don’t sell personal information, and I don’t use it for targeted advertising or profiling, so there is nothing to opt out of. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, I treat it as a request to opt out all the same.

Changes to this policy

If what this site collects changes, I’ll update this page before the change goes in, and the date below will move with it.
