At attorney.amatcousa.com, we value the trust you place in us. Protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information is a responsibility we take very seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard the data you share with us when visiting our website, submitting inquiries, or using our legal resources.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect both personal and non-personal information, depending on how you interact with our site.
Examples of personal information include:
- Name, phone number, and email address when you fill out our Contact Form.
- Case details or documents you choose to upload for consultation.
- Payment details if you make online service payments (secured through third-party processors such as PayPal or Stripe).
Examples of non-personal information include:
- IP addresses, browser type, and time spent on our website (for analytics and site improvements).

👉 Example: If you request a free consultation, we may ask for your full name, preferred contact method, and a short description of your legal issue. This information allows our attorneys to respond efficiently and tailor advice to your situation.

Your data is used strictly for professional and lawful purposes, such as:
- Responding to inquiries and providing legal guidance.

- Sending important updates, such as policy changes or office hours.
- Conducting internal research to better serve clients.
We never sell your personal data to third parties.

We implement multiple layers of protection to safeguard your information, including:
- Encryption: All form submissions and documents are encrypted using SSL technology.
- Restricted Access: Only authorized staff members have access to sensitive client data.

We share information only under limited circumstances:
- With trusted third-party service providers (e.g., secure cloud storage or payment gateways).
- When required by law, such as complying with a court order.
- With your explicit consent, if we need to collaborate with external professionals (e.g., financial advisors, expert witnesses).
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our site uses cookies to enhance user experience and gather analytics.
- Functional cookies help remember your preferences.
- Analytical cookies (e.g., Google Analytics) track general visitor statistics.
👉 Example: If analytics show that 70% of visitors read articles on contract law, we may publish more in-depth guides on that topic.

Our website may include links to external resources (e.g., government legal portals, partner law firms). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before sharing personal information.
8. Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in law or practice. Updates will be posted with a revised “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.
