Effective: April 23, 2026This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through schwartzip.com (the "Site") and through your interactions with the firm by email, telephone, or other channels. It does not apply to the websites or services of any third party, even where we link to them.
Information you share with us in the course of an attorney-client relationship is also governed by the rules of professional conduct, including obligations of confidentiality, which apply independently of, and in addition to, this policy.
We collect information you submit when you contact us through the Site, send us an email, complete an intake form, or engage the firm. This may include your name, employer, title, mailing address, email address, telephone number, and the contents of any messages or documents you choose to share.
When you visit the Site, our hosting and analytics providers may automatically collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type and version, device characteristics, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, links clicked, and the dates and times of your visits. This information helps us operate the Site, diagnose problems, and understand aggregate usage patterns.
The Site may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to remember preferences, support functionality, and measure traffic. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies; doing so may affect the operation of certain features. We do not use the Site to deliver targeted advertising.
We use the information we collect to:
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
Sending an email or completing a form on this Site does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship. Until we have confirmed in writing that we are willing and able to represent you, please do not send confidential, sensitive, or time-sensitive information. Unsolicited information sent to the firm may not be treated as confidential and may not preclude us from representing a party adverse to your interests.
We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is fully secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with our legal, regulatory, and professional obligations (including applicable record-retention requirements for client files), and to establish or defend legal claims.
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, services, and resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site you visit.
The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact us using the information below.
Depending on where you reside, you may have the right under state law to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, to opt out of certain uses or disclosures of personal information, and to designate an authorized agent to act on your behalf. We do not sell personal information or process it for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise any rights you may have, please contact us using the information below. We will verify your identity before responding to a request and will respond within the period required by applicable law.
If you are located in the EEA or the United Kingdom, you may have rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation or the UK GDPR to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal data, and to data portability. Where we process your personal data on the basis of consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Our lawful bases for processing typically include the performance of a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, and our legitimate interests in operating the firm and the Site.
The firm is based in the United States. If you access the Site or communicate with us from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions in which we or our service providers operate, where data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.
