Where We Collect Personal Information

In this section of the Privacy Policy, we explain where and how we collect personal information.

• Customers: Much of the personal information that LawTask PLLC collects comes directly or indirectly from our customers and prospective customers. Information that is collected directly from you is information that you provide when you complete a form online, upload a document, use a chat feature, or speak to us on the phone. We may also collect information indirectly about you when you interact with our website using cookies and other tracking technologies.
• Related Parties: We may collect information about you from someone you know.
• Service Providers: We may collect information about you from our Service Providers or other companies that we work with to deliver products to you. As used in this Privacy Policy, Service Providers means entities that LawTask PLLC has contracted with to provide us with services to help fulfill our business needs. Service Providers may also assist us in collecting information both directly and indirectly from you.
• Professionals (including attorneys and Tax Experts): We may receive information about you from the attorneys you work with through a LawTask engagement or other product offerings. LawTask PLLC does not intend to collect any information from attorneys where the collection would result in a waiver of the attorney-client privilege.
• Business Partners: We may receive information about you from our Business Partners. As used in this Privacy Policy, Business Partners means entities that LawTask PLLC has contracted with to engage in cross-promotional or product integration activities. An example of the type of information that we may receive from our business partners is information about the products you purchased from them.

• Publicly/Commercially Available Information: We may collect information about you from publicly available sources of information, including government records, social media sites, and other commercially available sources of personal information.

• Unrelated Parties: We may receive information related to you from people and entities with whom LawTask PLLC does not have a direct relationship. An example of the type of information that we may receive from unrelated third parties are documents that we receive on your behalf in our role as your Registered Agent.

For instance, we may use FedEx, the United States Postal Service, or other shipping providers to deliver physical products you have purchased. Similarly, we may use WorldPay, Adyen, or Stripe for purposes of processing payments or providing identity verification services. In doing so, these companies may collect and process personal information for their own uses, including improving their services and for fraud detection and prevention.

• Government Entities: LawTask PLLC may share information about customers with government entities to fulfill the products purchased by our customers. Certain personal information becomes public record when documents are filed with the federal or a state government or with a court. For example, a corporation’s name, business address, and registered agent name become public information when its articles of incorporation are filed. A Secretary of State may publish this information on its website or provide this information to third parties. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office publishes the names and addresses of trademark registrants. This Privacy Policy does not cover these or similar third-party actions.
• Public Disclosures: LawTask PLLC may publicly disclose personal information in limited circumstances.

You will also be required to submit both your and the authorized agent’s valid government-issued identification.

Selling, Sharing, and Use of Personal Information for Targeted Advertising

LawTask PLLC does not “sell” this information for money.
