Privacy Policy

01 Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through argynlaw.com, website inquiry forms, email, telephone communications, and other interactions with Argyn Law, PLLC ("Argyn Law," the "Firm," "we," "us," or "our"). It applies to website visitors, prospective clients, and other people who communicate with the Firm. Information handled during an actual legal representation may also be governed by professional duties, engagement terms, and applicable law.

02 Information we collect

Information you provide

Depending on how you contact us, we may collect:

• Your name, email address, telephone number, and other contact information.
• The general type of immigration assistance you are seeking.
• A brief description of your inquiry and information you choose to include.
• The names of relevant people or organizations for an initial conflict review.
• Consultation preferences and related communications.
• Other information you voluntarily provide by form, email, telephone, or mail.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the website, Squarespace and other service providers may automatically receive technical and usage information, including:

• Your Internet Protocol (IP) address and approximate region.
• Browser, network, device, and operating-system information.
• The page or website visited before this website.
• Pages viewed, links selected, scrolling, searches, and timestamps.
• Website performance, security, and error information.

03 How we use information

We may use information to:

• Respond to inquiries and communicate with you.
• Understand the general nature of a requested immigration service.
• Conduct conflict, suitability, and capacity reviews.
• Arrange and administer consultations.
• Provide legal services after an engagement has been accepted in writing.
• Operate, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website.
• Prevent spam, fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, and technical problems.
• Maintain appropriate business and professional records.
• Comply with applicable law, professional obligations, and lawful requests.
• Protect the rights, safety, security, and property of the Firm and others.

04 Prospective-client communications

Sending information to the Firm does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship or require the Firm to accept a matter. Please limit an initial inquiry to information reasonably necessary to identify the parties and explain the general nature of the matter. Do not assume that information submitted through a general form will prevent the Firm from representing another person or organization.

Submitting an inquiry does not stop or extend any filing deadline, response period, status expiration, court date, or other legal deadline.

05 Service providers, analytics, cookies, and security

We use third-party service providers to operate, secure, and understand the use of this website. These providers include Squarespace, which provides website hosting, forms, security, and site analytics, and Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise, which helps prevent spam, fraud, and automated abuse. These providers may process information such as IP addresses, browser and device information, website activity, and information submitted through website forms, subject to their respective privacy practices.

The website may use cookies, local storage, pixels, scripts, and similar technologies that support essential functions, remember preferences, protect the site, and measure traffic and activity. Available choices may depend on your browser settings and the cookie controls displayed on the website. Blocking some technologies may affect website functionality.

You can review the Squarespace Privacy Policy, Google's Privacy Policy, and Google's Terms of Service for additional information about their respective practices.

06 How information may be shared

We may disclose information:

• To service providers that support website hosting, forms, email, communications, cloud storage, cybersecurity, records, or other business operations, including Squarespace and Google reCAPTCHA.
• To consultants, accountants, insurers, experts, co-counsel, local counsel, or other professionals when appropriate and legally permitted.
• At your direction or with your consent.
• When required by law, court order, subpoena, or lawful governmental request.
• When reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, security, or property.
• In connection with a proposed or completed transfer or reorganization of the practice, subject to applicable professional obligations.

Argyn Law does not sell personal information for monetary compensation and does not use information submitted through a legal inquiry form for unrelated third-party advertising.

07 Security and retention

The Firm uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, acquisition, use, alteration, destruction, or disclosure. No electronic transmission or storage system is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

Information is retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to an inquiry, perform conflict reviews, provide requested services, maintain appropriate legal and business records, comply with applicable obligations, resolve disputes, and protect against fraud or security risks. Some conflict-checking information may be retained after an inquiry ends.

08 Privacy choices and requests

You may contact us to ask about information associated with you, request correction of inaccurate contact information, request deletion where appropriate, or opt out of nonessential marketing communications. We may need to verify your identity. A request may be limited or denied when retention or disclosure is required or permitted by law, professional duties, conflict-checking needs, legal claims, or security considerations. Additional rights may apply under the law of your jurisdiction.

09 Children’s privacy

This website is intended for a general audience and is not primarily directed to minors or directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through this website. Children under 13 should not submit information through the website. A parent or legal guardian seeking immigration services for a child may contact the Firm on the child’s behalf.

If we learn that personal information was collected directly from a child under 13 without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to address or delete that information, subject to applicable legal and professional obligations. If we actually know that a website user is a minor, we will process that user’s information in accordance with applicable law.

10 Third-party links and international visitors

The website may link to third-party websites and services. The Firm does not control their privacy, security, accessibility, or content. Review the applicable third-party policy before submitting information.

The website is operated from the United States. Information submitted from outside the United States may be processed in the United States or in other locations where service providers operate, subject to applicable law.

11 Changes to this policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in law, professional obligations, website functionality, technology, or business practices. The revised version will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
