Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 1, 2026

LegalPulse Pro (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our platform.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, profile photo (if provided), and professional details such as your organization and practice areas.

Usage Data

We automatically collect information about how you interact with the Service, including pages viewed, articles read, search queries, timestamps, referring URLs, browser type, and device information.

Payment Data

Payments are processed through Stripe. We do not store your full credit card number or bank account details. Stripe may collect and process payment information in accordance with its own Privacy Policy. We receive limited transaction data such as the last four digits of your card, billing address, and transaction status.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service.
  • Process subscriptions and payments.
  • Personalize your experience, including content recommendations.
  • Send transactional emails (account verification, subscription confirmations, receipts).
  • Communicate updates, security alerts, and support messages.
  • Monitor and analyze usage trends to improve platform performance.
  • Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or technical issues.

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your data in the following limited circumstances:

  • Stripe: Payment and subscription data is shared with Stripe to process transactions securely via Stripe Connect.
  • Writers: When you subscribe to a writer, they can see your name, email, and subscription status to manage their audience.
  • Service Providers: We may share data with trusted third-party providers who assist with hosting, analytics, and email delivery, subject to confidentiality obligations.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g., financial transaction records). Aggregated, anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for analytical purposes.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal retention requirements.
  • Export: Request a portable copy of your data in a commonly used format.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to maintain session state, remember your preferences, and analyze usage patterns. Essential cookies are required for the Service to function. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may affect functionality.

7. Children’s Privacy

LegalPulse Pro is not directed at individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

8. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit (TLS), secure authentication, and access controls. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the revised policy on the Service and updating the effective date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
