Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Founders First Law ("we," "us," or "the firm") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit foundersfirstlaw.com (the "Site") or contact us through it.

Information we collect

When you submit the contact form, we collect the information you provide:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Your phone number (optional)
• The message you write

We also automatically collect standard analytics data about your visit (such as pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type, and referring source) through Google Analytics, only where you have allowed analytics cookies. See "Cookies and analytics" below.

How we use your information

• To respond to your inquiry and communicate with you about legal services;
• To understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it;
• To meet our legal and professional obligations.

Submitting the contact form does not create an attorney–client relationship. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive information through the form until such a relationship is established.

How your information is handled and stored

Contact-form submissions are delivered to the firm by email through our email provider (Resend) and are also stored by our website host (Netlify) so that no inquiry is lost if an email fails to deliver. The Site is hosted on Netlify and served through Cloudflare.

We retain contact-form submissions for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and to meet our recordkeeping obligations. You may ask us to delete your information as described under "Your rights."

Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics (loaded through Google Tag Manager) to measure Site usage. These set cookies only after you accept analytics cookies in our consent banner. Visitors in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland are not tracked unless they opt in; other visitors may opt out at any time.

You can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer, or by clearing cookies in your browser. Declining analytics cookies does not affect your ability to use the Site.

Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers that operate the Site and our communications (such as Netlify, Cloudflare, Resend, and Google), and as required by law or to respond to your inquiry.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights over the personal information we hold about you. California residents, under the CCPA and CPRA, have the right to:

• Know what personal information we collect and how it is used;
• Request access to, or a copy of, that information;
• Request correction of inaccurate information;
• Request deletion of their information, subject to legal exceptions;
• Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information; and
• Not be treated differently for exercising these rights.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below; we will verify and respond to your request as required by law.
