The McClellan Law Firm, LLC is committed to protecting the privacy of our clients. The Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct impose a duty to preserve and protect confidential client information.
Collection and Use of Phone Number
The firm collects your phone number in the course of providing legal services to clients when the client completes the Fee Agreement, consenting to the firm sending SMS messages to the client. SMS opt-in or phone numbers for the purpose of SMS are not being shared.
We may use your phone number in our legitimate interest to do so for the following purposes:
to contact you and respond to your requests and enquiries;
to provide you with legal services, if you are or become a client of the firm, and otherwise deal with you, and administer the matters you instruct us on;
to comply with applicable laws, regulations, guidance or professional obligations that we may be subject to, including anti-money laundering requirements.
Confidentiality, Security, and Retention of Phone Number
We maintain reasonable and appropriate, albeit not infallible, physical, electronic and procedural safeguards intended to maintain the confidentiality of your phone number, including that provided by a visitor to this website and provided while using other Internet Services. We do not guarantee that our safeguards will always work.
We may retain information provided by you, including your phone number, for as long as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, or to achieve the purposes for which the information was originally collected.
Disclosure and Transfer of Personal Information
We do not disclose phone numbers to unrelated parties outside of the firm except in limited circumstances. Such circumstances include disclosures to our agents or data processors or other contractors acting on our behalf and at our direction, subject to appropriate confidentiality, privacy and information security commitments provided by the receiving party, or where we believe it necessary to provide a service which you have requested, or as permitted or required by law, or as otherwise authorized or directed by you. Consistent with our professional obligations, we may provide your phone number to regulatory authorities and law enforcement officials in accordance with applicable law or when we otherwise believe in good faith that the provision of such information is required or permitted by law, such as in connection with the investigation or assertion of our legal defenses or for our compliance matters.
Changes
We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time without advance notice.
