Privacy Policy

1. INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you:

• request a consultation;
• submit a contact or inquiry form;
• communicate with the Firm by email, telephone, or through the website;
• provide information concerning the general nature of a potential legal matter; or
• otherwise interact with website features.

This information may include your name, email address, telephone number, scheduling preferences, general information concerning your legal needs, and other information you choose to provide.

Please do not submit highly sensitive documents, confidential records, Social Security numbers, financial account information, passwords, or other sensitive information through a general website form unless specifically requested by the Firm.

2. INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY

The website and its hosting or service providers may automatically receive limited technical information associated with your visit, such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, date and time of access, and server or security logs.

3. HOW WE USE INFORMATION

Information collected through the website may be used to:

• respond to inquiries;
• evaluate and process consultation requests;
• communicate regarding scheduling or potential services;
• conduct appropriate conflict checks;
• provide requested information;
• operate, secure, maintain, and improve the website;
• prevent fraud, misuse, or security incidents;
• comply with legal, ethical, regulatory, or professional obligations; and
• maintain appropriate business and administrative records.

Magnolia Chambers does not sell or rent personal information for marketing purposes.

4. WEBSITE INQUIRIES, PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS, AND ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIPS

Submitting information through this website, sending an email to the Firm, requesting a consultation, or otherwise contacting Magnolia Chambers does not, by itself, establish an attorney-client relationship.

The Firm does not intend for general website communications alone to create an attorney-client relationship. Representation is ordinarily confirmed through an engagement agreement or other express written confirmation from the Firm.

However, information received from a person who consults with the Firm in good faith regarding possible representation will be handled in accordance with applicable law and the professional obligations governing prospective clients.

Because conflicts must be evaluated before representation is accepted, website users should provide only the information reasonably necessary for the Firm to determine whether and how to proceed with an inquiry.

Do not use the website to communicate emergencies, imminent deadlines, court dates, statutes of limitation, or other matters requiring immediate legal action.

5. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to operate the Firm and website, including to service providers that assist with functions such as website hosting, email communications, scheduling, videoconferencing, security, and related administrative services.

We may also disclose information when required or permitted by law, court order, applicable professional obligations, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, security, or property of the Firm or others.

We do not sell personal information to third parties for advertising purposes.

6. THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS

The website and consultation process currently use the following services. Third-party providers process information according to their own privacy practices and terms.

• Resend — used for transactional email delivery and consultation communications.
• Google Calendar — used to check availability and create consultation calendar events.
• Zoom — used to create video consultation links when a Zoom consultation is selected.

7. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

The website does not use analytics, advertising pixels, or non-essential cookies. The website may use technically necessary browser storage or cookies to operate specific interface features.

8. DATA SECURITY

Magnolia Chambers uses reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information under its control. Nevertheless, no website, electronic transmission, storage system, or method of communication can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users should avoid transmitting highly sensitive information through ordinary website forms or unsecured email unless specifically instructed to do so.

9. DATA RETENTION

Information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to inquiries, evaluating potential representation, satisfying conflict-check requirements, maintaining appropriate business records, complying with professional responsibilities, resolving disputes, and satisfying applicable legal obligations.

If an attorney-client relationship is established, information associated with the representation may be maintained pursuant to the Firm’s client-file and professional recordkeeping practices.

10. PRIVACY REQUESTS

Individuals may contact Magnolia Chambers concerning personal information they have submitted through the website, including requests to review, correct, or delete information where appropriate and permitted by applicable law and professional obligations.

Certain information may need to be retained when required by law, professional obligations, conflict-check requirements, legitimate business needs, or other applicable requirements.

Privacy-related requests may be sent to counsel@magnoliachambers.com

11. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

This website is not directed to children under 13, and Magnolia Chambers does not knowingly use the website to solicit personal information directly from children under 13 without appropriate authorization.

12. THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

The website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties. Magnolia Chambers is not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or practices of third-party websites. Users should review the applicable terms and privacy policies of those services.
