Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on American LegalNet, Inc. as easy and valuable as possible, and we want you to use the Internet's vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete confidence.

We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how American LegalNet, Inc. collects information from all end users of American LegalNet's Internet services (the "Services"). In this policy, the end users are defined as those who access some of our Free Services ("Visitors") as well as those who pay a service fee to access our Products ("Users"). This Privacy Policy also describes what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Users have concerning the collection and use of such information. American LegalNet, Inc. requests that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.

Personal Information American LegalNet, Inc. Collects and How It is Used

Introduction
American LegalNet, Inc. collects information in different ways from Visitors and Users who access the various parts of our Services and Products. We use this information primarily to provide you a customized experience as you use our Services and Products and, generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.

Registration
Users and Visitors are asked to provide certain personal information when they sign-up for our Services including, but not limited to, name, address, telephone number, the type of personal computer being used to access the Services, and other demographic data. The personal information collected from Users and Visitors during the registration process is used to manage each User's account (such as for billing purposes). This information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances. However, in instances where American LegalNet, Inc. and a partner jointly promote the Services, American LegalNet, Inc. may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the promotion. In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any other purpose. American LegalNet, Inc. may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from personal information Users and Visitors provide during registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of Users and Visitors). As explained in more detail below, we may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell advertisements that appear on the Services. American LegalNet, Inc. may provide Users and Visitors with offers for other American LegalNet, Inc. products and services unless Users and Visitors opt-out of such notifications.

American LegalNet, Inc. Partners and Sponsors
Some American LegalNet, Inc. products and services are offered to Visitors and Users in conjunction with a nonaffiliated partner. For example, we may form working relationships with electronic filing companies to allow their customers access to our forms. To provide Visitors and Users some of these products and services, the partner may need to collect and maintain personal information. In these instances, you will be notified before any such data is collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular service or feature.

Payment Information
If you order products directly from American LegalNet, Inc., we will use the personal information you provide only to process that order. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.

Online Advertisements
American LegalNet, Inc. displays our online advertisements. We share aggregated and non-identifying information about our Visitors and Users collected through the registration process as well as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers. Additionally, in some instances, we use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements. For instance, an advertiser tells us the audience they want to reach (for example, litigators in San Francisco) and provides us with an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may then display the advertisement to the intended audience. American LegalNet, Inc. does not share personal information about its Visitors or Users with these advertisers.

Responses to Email Inquiries
When Visitors or Users send email inquiries to American LegalNet, Inc. , the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. American LegalNet, Inc. does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with any third party.

Voluntary Surveys
We may periodically conduct Visitor and/or User surveys. We encourage our Visitors and Users to participate in these surveys because they provide us with important information that helps us to improve the types of services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third party. Participation in our surveys is voluntary. We take the information we receive from individuals responding to our Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of others to create broader, generic responses to the survey questions (such as specialty, types of litigation, city, forms most commonly used, types of clients, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third parties.

Special Cases
It is American LegalNet, Inc. policy not to use or share the personal information about Visitors of Users in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. However, American LegalNet, Inc. may disclose personal information about Visitors or Users, or information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Acceptable Use Policy or other user policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect American LegalNet, Inc. and our Users.
