Privacy Policy

Klar Law PLLC (“Klar Law,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and disclose information submitted through our website or otherwise provided to us electronically.

​

1. No Attorney-Client Relationship Created by Website Use

Using this website, submitting information through a contact form, emailing us, scheduling a consultation, uploading documents, or otherwise communicating with Klar Law does not create an attorney-client relationship.

​

An attorney-client relationship is formed only after Klar Law completes its conflict check and both you and Klar Law agree to the terms of representation.

​

Please do not send confidential, privileged, or time-sensitive information unless and until Klar Law has agreed to represent you.

​

2. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

• Information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, business name, matter description, or documents you upload or transmit to us;

• Communications you send to us by email, contact form, scheduling link, payment portal, client portal, or other electronic means;

• Technical information automatically collected when you visit the website, such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring website, pages visited, and general usage data;

• Payment-related information if you pay invoices or retainers through a third-party payment processor.

• ​

3. How We Use Information

We use information only for law firm, legal, administrative, and business purposes related to Klar Law.

We may use collected information to:

• Respond to inquiries;

• Conduct conflict checks;

• Evaluate whether Klar Law can assist with a potential matter;

• Provide legal services to clients;

• Communicate with clients, prospective clients, courts, opposing counsel, agencies, vendors, and other persons or entities as necessary for legal representation or law firm administration;

• Process payments;

• Maintain billing, accounting, business, and compliance records;

• Protect the security and operation of our website, systems, and client files;

• Provide updates to existing and former clients and potential clients on changes in legislation, regulations and court decisions;

• Comply with legal, ethical, regulatory, court-imposed, or professional responsibility obligations.
   

We do not sell personal information. We do not use personal information for use by outside marketing, lead generation, data brokerage, profiling, or third-party commercial purposes.

​

4. Confidentiality and Attorney-Client Information

Information provided by current clients in the course of representation is handled in accordance with applicable rules of professional conduct, attorney-client privilege, the attorney work-product doctrine, and other applicable legal protections.

​

Information submitted by prospective clients may also be treated as confidential to the extent required by applicable professional responsibility rules. However, submitting information through this website or by email does not, by itself, make you a client of Klar Law.

​

5. How We Share Information

Klar Law does not sell, rent, or provide personal information to outside parties for their own marketing, advertising, lead generation.

​

We may disclose information only when reasonably necessary for legal, professional, administrative, or business purposes, including to:
 

• Service providers who support Klar Law’s operations, including website hosting providers, email providers, billing platforms, payment processors, cloud storage providers, client portals, e-signature services, scheduling tools, and IT support;

• Courts, administrative agencies, opposing counsel, parties, experts, consultants, mediators, arbitrators, title companies, insurers, and other persons or entities when necessary or appropriate for legal representation;

• Law enforcement, regulators, courts, or other authorities when required by law, subpoena, court order, professional obligation, or to protect legal rights;

• Successor entities in connection with a merger, restructuring, sale, or transfer of all or part of the practice, subject to applicable ethical duties.
   

Service providers are authorized to use information only as necessary to provide services to Klar Law and are not authorized to use information for their own unrelated purposes.
 

6. Third-Party Services and Links

Our website or communications may link to or use third-party services, including payment processors, client portals, scheduling platforms, document upload tools, e-signature services, or other external resources.

​

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services. Their own privacy policies govern their collection and use of information.

​

7. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies, analytics tools, or similar technologies to understand website traffic, improve functionality, maintain security, and evaluate website performance.
 

We do not use website analytics to sell information, build advertising profiles, or provide personal information to outside parties for their own marketing purposes.
 

You may be able to disable cookies through your browser settings, although some website features may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
 

8. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
 

No website, email system, cloud platform, or electronic transmission is completely secure. You should avoid sending highly sensitive information through unsecured channels unless Klar Law has provided or approved a secure method of transmission.
 

9. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including legal services, conflict checks, billing, accounting, business administration, compliance, dispute resolution, and professional responsibility obligations.

 

Client files and records may be retained or destroyed in accordance with applicable law, engagement agreements, professional responsibility obligations, and firm policies.

 

10. Your Choices

You may contact us to request that we update, correct, or delete personal information you have provided, subject to Klar Law’s legal, ethical, billing, recordkeeping, conflict-checking, and professional responsibility obligations.

 

You may also opt out of non-essential communications from us. Klar Law may still send communications related to legal services, billing, conflicts, administrative matters, or legal obligations.

​

11. Washington and Other Privacy Rights

Depending on where you reside and the nature of the information involved, you may have privacy rights under applicable state, federal, or international law.

 

Klar Law will respond to applicable privacy requests as required by law, subject to legal and ethical duties governing law firms, client information, attorney-client privilege, work product, conflict records, billing records, and legal files.

​

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.

​

Continued use of the website after an update means you accept the revised Privacy Policy.
