Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 15, 2026

1. Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Juvenile Justice Defense Group (the “Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, maintains, and protects personal information through its website (juvenilecriminaldefense.com), attorney intake process, and related communications concerning juvenile criminal defense.

2. Information You Provide

We may collect your name, contact information, location, details about a legal matter, documents, and information you submit through calls, forms, email, text, chat, or other communications. If you contact us about a minor, the information you provide may include details about the minor and the matter.

3. Information Collected Automatically

Our website may collect IP address, device and browser details, approximate location, referral source, pages visited, timestamps, interactions, and conversion information through cookies, server logs, analytics, and call-tracking tools.

4. Cookies and Analytics

We may use cookies and similar technologies for website functionality, security, analytics, advertising attribution, and performance measurement. You may adjust available browser settings, although some website features may be affected.

5. Communications and Intake

We use submitted information to respond to inquiries, assess potential matters, conduct preliminary conflict screening, arrange attorney consultations, provide legal services where engaged, and maintain appropriate business and legal records.

6. How We Use Information

We may use information to administer the Firm and its website, evaluate requests for legal representation, communicate with prospective and existing clients, provide authorized legal services, protect security, measure marketing performance, and meet legal or professional obligations.

7. How We Share Information

We may share information with Firm attorneys and authorized personnel, vendors assisting with secure operations and intake, professional advisers, and others as authorized by you or permitted or required by law. Any sharing of prospective-client or client information is subject to applicable confidentiality and professional-responsibility obligations. We do not treat inquiries as leads for sale to unrelated law firms.

8. Technology and Service Providers

The Firm may use hosting, forms, telephone, CRM, analytics, communications, security, and other vendors to operate its practice. Vendor access to information is limited by applicable agreements, security controls, and legal obligations as appropriate.

9. Attorney Communications and Confidentiality

Communications with the Firm may involve sensitive legal matters. We take reasonable steps to handle information consistent with applicable duties owed to prospective and current clients. However, sending information through a website does not automatically establish an attorney-client relationship. Please avoid sending highly sensitive documents or information until the Firm requests them through an appropriate channel. Sealed or confidential juvenile records should not be sent through the website.

10. Prospective Clients and Conflicts

An inquiry may be reviewed by Firm personnel for intake and conflicts purposes. We may decline a matter, including because of a conflict of interest or other professional consideration. The Firm will not undertake representation unless an authorized attorney agrees to do so.

11. Artificial Intelligence and Automation

We may use appropriate automated tools for administrative functions such as scheduling, transcription, routing, communications, or drafting assistance, subject to applicable confidentiality and professional obligations. Automated content is reviewed as appropriate and is not a substitute for attorney judgment.

12. Advertising and Measurement

We may measure website traffic and advertising effectiveness using analytics and attribution tools, subject to applicable privacy law and available opt-out rights.

13. Privacy Choices

Where applicable law provides rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain information about personal data, or to opt out of certain advertising-related sharing, requests may be sent to info@juvenilecriminaldefense.com. We will verify and respond to eligible requests as required by law.

14. California Privacy Rights

California residents may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, if applicable to the Firm and the information at issue. Statutory exemptions, including those involving protected legal information, may apply.

15. Retention and Security

We retain information for legitimate practice, legal, ethical, security, and recordkeeping needs. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards, but no electronic transmission or storage method is entirely secure.

16. Children’s Privacy

The website is intended for parents, guardians, and other adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under age 13 through general website features without an appropriate lawful basis. Information about a minor should be provided by a parent or guardian.

17. Third-Party Links

Our website may link to third-party services. Those services are governed by their own privacy policies.

18. Email, Text, and Call Recording

You may opt out of nonessential marketing emails through an unsubscribe mechanism or by contacting us, and out of text messages by replying STOP. Reply HELP for help. Calls may be recorded only with legally required notice or consent, including as applicable under California law.

19. Legal Disclosures and Business Changes

We may preserve or disclose information as required by law, legal process, professional duties, or legitimate security needs. Information involved in a lawful practice or business transition will remain subject to applicable confidentiality obligations.

20. Updates and Contact

We may revise this Policy and post an updated effective date. For privacy questions, contact Juvenile Justice Defense Group at info@juvenilecriminaldefense.com, (888) 440-5101, or 600 W. Broadway, Suite 700, San Diego, CA 92101.
