Website Privacy Notice

THE GIVENS LAW FIRM, P.A.  

 

Effective date: July 27, 2026

1. Scope and Firm Information

This Website Privacy Notice describes how The Givens Law Firm, P.A. (the “Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) may collect, use, disclose, and protect information obtained through www.givensfirm.com and related webpages, online forms, scheduling pages, and payment or terms pages that link to this notice.

The Firm is a Florida professional association providing legal and mediation-related services. This notice applies to website information only. It does not replace any engagement letter, mediation agreement, court order, program rule, confidentiality obligation, payment term, or other service-specific agreement.

2. Information You Choose to Provide

You may provide information when you submit a general contact form, request court-coverage or mediation services, use an online scheduler, complete an intake or terms form, make or arrange payment, subscribe to updates, or communicate with the Firm by email or telephone.

The information may include your name, email address, telephone number, organization or law firm, case or matter information, preferred dates, service requested, payment-related confirmation information, and the content of your message. Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, medical records, privileged communications, confidential settlement information, or other sensitive information through a general website form unless the Firm has specifically directed you to a secure method.

3. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the website, the Firm and its service providers may automatically receive technical information such as your Internet Protocol address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from an IP address, date and time of access, and website-interaction information.

The website may use cookies, pixels, server logs, and similar technologies. The site may use Google Analytics through WordPress tools such as MonsterInsights, or comparable analytics technology, to understand website traffic and improve site performance. The exact data collected depends on the tools enabled on the site and the visitor’s browser and consent settings.

4. How Information May Be Used

The Firm may use information to respond to inquiries; evaluate requests for services; administer scheduling, intake, conflict review, terms, payment, and mediation logistics; communicate about a matter or requested service; operate, secure, and improve the website; detect spam, misuse, or security incidents; maintain business records; comply with law, court requirements, program rules, professional obligations, or lawful requests; and protect the rights, safety, and property of the Firm and others.

Information submitted through the website will not be used to create an attorney-client relationship or mediator-client relationship unless the Firm separately agrees in writing to undertake a specific representation or service.

5. Cookies and Analytics Choices

You may be able to control cookies through the website’s cookie controls, if available, and through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may affect website functionality. Analytics providers may offer their own opt-out tools. Browser-based “Do Not Track” signals are not interpreted consistently across the industry; the website will respond to legally required privacy signals when applicable and technically supported.

6. Service Providers and Third-Party Tools

The Firm may use service providers for website hosting, analytics, spam prevention, mapping, scheduling, electronic forms, document generation, email delivery, payment processing, cloud storage, security, and related business functions. These providers may process information on the Firm’s behalf or under their own terms and privacy notices.

Links to third-party websites, social media pages, maps, schedulers, payment pages, or other services are provided for convenience. The Firm does not control the privacy practices of those third parties.

7. Disclosure of Information

The Firm may disclose information to vendors and service providers that support website and business operations; to courts, agencies, program administrators, parties, counsel, or others when directed or authorized in connection with a requested service; when required by law, subpoena, court order, or professional obligation; to protect legal rights, safety, or security; or in connection with a business reorganization, transfer, or succession.

The Firm does not intend to sell personal information collected through this website for money. The Firm does not knowingly use website information to build profiles for unrelated cross-context behavioral advertising.

8. Data Security and Retention

The Firm uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information maintained. No website, email system, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Information is retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose collected, to maintain business and professional records, to resolve disputes, to enforce agreements, and to satisfy legal, ethical, tax, insurance, or regulatory requirements. Retention periods may vary by record type.

9. No Attorney-Client or Confidential Relationship Through the Website

Using this website, submitting a form, scheduling a consultation or mediation, or sending an email does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship, mediator-client relationship, fiduciary relationship, or confidential relationship. Do not send confidential or time-sensitive information unless and until the Firm confirms the appropriate relationship and secure method of communication.

The mediator serves as a neutral and does not represent either side. Mediation confidentiality is governed by applicable law, rules, court orders, program requirements, and written mediation terms—not merely by use of this website.

10. Children’s Information

The website is intended for adults seeking legal, professional, or mediation-related information. The Firm does not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information through the website, contact the Firm so the information can be reviewed and, where appropriate, deleted.

11. Your Choices and Requests

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of information that you submitted through the website, subject to applicable law and the Firm’s professional, legal, recordkeeping, and security obligations. You may also request to stop receiving nonessential marketing communications. The Firm may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.

12. Changes to This Notice

The Firm may revise this notice to reflect changes in the website, services, technology, or legal requirements. The effective date at the top of the notice will identify the current version.
