Privacy Policy
Last Updated: August 11, 2025
At Whistleblower Law Partners, we prioritize the confidentiality, security, and transparency of all client communications. Protecting your personal information and respecting your communication preferences—especially regarding texting—is a cornerstone of our practice.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you interact with us—whether you are a current client, prospective client, or simply visiting our website. It applies to all personal information collected online or offline, through our website (https://www.whistleblowerlawpartners.com), by phone, email, text, or in person.
Information We Collect
We collect only the personal information necessary to serve you effectively, which may include:
- Contact details (name, email address, phone number)
- Case-related information you choose to share with us
- Technical information (IP address, browser type, and device details) to improve your browsing experience and maintain security
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or 16 in applicable jurisdictions). If we discover such data, we will delete it promptly.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information only for legitimate business and legal purposes, including:
Responding to your inquiries and providing legal services
Fulfilling professional and ethical obligations
Sending case updates or important information in line with your preferences
Maintaining site security and improving user experience
Our legal basis for processing your information may include your consent, the performance of a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, or our legitimate interest in providing and improving our services.
Text Messaging
Text communication is never automatic. If you provide a mobile number, we will only send text messages if you have clearly opted in—whether by checking a permission box, verbally requesting texts, or otherwise giving explicit consent.
Texts are used only for direct legal communications such as appointment reminders, document updates, or urgent case matters.
We never send advertising, marketing, or bulk promotional texts.
You can withdraw your permission at any time by replying “STOP” or contacting us directly.
Confidentiality and Data Security
Client confidentiality is protected by attorney-client privilege. Whether you communicate by phone, email, secure online form, or text, we protect your data using industry-standard encryption both in transit and at rest.
We limit access to your information to attorneys and staff directly involved in your matter. We may use secure third-party service providers (e.g., cloud storage, email platforms, case management software) to process and store your data, but these providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
While we take every reasonable step to protect your data, no transmission or storage system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Sharing
We will never sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may disclose your data only in the following situations:
- With your explicit written consent
- When required by law, court order, or legal process
- To protect your safety or the safety of others
Cookies and Online Activity
Our website uses essential cookies and analytics tools to:
- Improve site performance and user experience
- Track aggregated (non-personal) browsing patterns
- Maintain security
Certain non-essential cookies may require your consent, which you can manage at any time via our on-site cookie preferences panel. This policy does not cover third-party websites linked from our site—we recommend reviewing their privacy policies separately.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, and maintain professional records. When no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize your data.
Your Rights and Choices
You have the right to:
- Access, review, or correct the personal information we hold about you
- Request deletion of your information (unless we are legally or ethically required to retain it)
- Update your communication preferences, including opting in or out of texting
Jurisdiction & Dispute Resolution
This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to conflict of laws. Any disputes arising from this policy will be resolved through the applicable courts in Oregon.
