Information from Third Parties
SLT is a service provider to our clients. This may involve our client or a third-party providing information to us about a matter in which we act as counsel. Our receipt of this information is always controlled by an agreement with the Client that contains specific provisions about our ability to use such Personal Information. We cannot use Personal Information for any purpose other than fulfilling the business relationship with the client. In the course of our representation, we may also collect Personal Information about you from other sources, including consumer credit reporting agencies, background check vendors (for employment applications) and/or private intelligence companies, court and other public records, and state, federal or international agencies. We may combine the information we collect from third parties with information that we have collected from you or through your use of our Services.
The Site may also include functionality that allows certain kinds of interactions between the Site and your account on a third-party website or application, like X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn or Instagram. The use of this functionality may involve the third-party site providing information to us. For example, we may provide links on the Site to facilitate sending a communication from the Site or we may use third parties to facilitate emails or postings to social media (like a “Share” or “Forward” button). These third parties may retain any information used or provided in any such communications or activities and these third parties’ practices are not subject to our Privacy Policy. We may not control or have access to your communications through these third parties. Further, when you use third-party sites or services, you are using their services and not our services and they, not we, are responsible for their practices. You should read the applicable third-party privacy policies before using such third-party tools on our Site. Please also see our Terms of Use for further information.

This overview explains the many ways we put your information to work. Everything we do with your information aims to provide better service and maintain your trust.
When We Disclose Information
We Anonymized Data Use: We may take the information we collect and remove anything that could identify you personally. We do this by aggregating (combining), de-identifying, or anonymizing the information so it can’t be linked back to you. Once we do this, we can use and share this non-personal information for various purposes, including research and marketing, and we may share it with our affiliates and other organizations.
Protected Client Information: We take client confidentiality very seriously. As a rule, we don’t share your personal information with anyone outside SLT unless you specifically approve it in writing. However, there are certain situations where the law and Rules of Professional Conduct allow us to share some non-public information about you:
Legal and Professional Obligations: We may need to share your information when:
- We receive a valid and enforceable subpoena or summons
- A state or national licensing board (such as The Florida Bar’s Division of Lawyer Regulation) reviews our firm’s practices, or we need to respond to their inquiries or complaints
- We must comply with or respond to inquiries from federal or state agencies
Business Operations: We may share your information during:
- Potential business transactions (like a sale or merger of our firm), but only with appropriate safeguards like confidentiality agreements to prevent unauthorized disclosure
- Legal proceedings or dispute resolution where we’re involved, sharing only what’s necessary for our case and taking precautions to keep information private
- Service delivery through our business partners (like payment processors, cloud providers, or email services), but only with contractual protections limiting how they can use the information
Marketing and Other Uses: To the extent allowed by law and Rules of Professional Conduct, we may also share your information:
- With our affiliated companies
- With non-affiliated companies we have marketing relationships with
- For direct marketing purposes like webinars or other relevant opportunities
- For other purposes we tell you about when you provide your information or as described in our Privacy Policy
Special Note for California Residents: If you live in California, you have additional rights regarding the “sale” of your information, among other rights. Please see “Your California Privacy Rights” section for details.
Ads and Information About You
You may see certain ads on our Services because we may participate in advertising networks administered by third parties. These networks may track your online activities over time and across third-party websites and online services by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of the Tracking Technologies described above, and they may use this information to show you advertisements that are tailored to your individual interests. The information they collect may include information about your visits to our Sites, such as the pages you have viewed. This collection and ad targeting may take place both on our Services and on third-party websites and other services that participate in the ad networks. This process may help us track the effectiveness of our communications and marketing efforts. You can find additional information in our Cookie Policy, including ways to opt-out of certain Tracking Technologies.
Your Choices About the Information We Collect
If you would prefer that we not share your name and mailing address with third parties (other than with our affiliates) to receive promotional offers, you have the option to opt out of such sharing. To do so, please email us at noreply@scottlawteam.com. Your choice will not affect our ability to share information in the other ways described in this Privacy Policy.
If you do not wish to receive e-mails about special offers, events, and other promotions from us, email us at noreply@scottlawteam.com to opt out or click the link in the email to “unsubscribe.” If you do not wish to receive other marketing materials by regular mail from us, please write us at:
Scott Law Team, LLC
250 S. Central Blvd, Ste 104
Jupiter, FL 33458
(561) 653-0008
Please note that certain of your Personal Information, such as your name or other identifying information, may remain in our database even after a deletion request in order to maintain the integrity and historical record of our database and systems, or to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is not intended for use by children under the age of 18. We do not request, or knowingly collect, any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 18. If you are the parent or guardian of a child under 18 who you believe has provided her or his information to us, please contact us at noreply@scottlawteam.com to request the deletion of that information.
Do Not Track Disclosures
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a web browser setting that requests that a web application disable its tracking of an individual user. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser sends a special signal to websites, analytics companies, ad networks, plug in providers, and other web services you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity. Various third parties are developing or have developed signals or other mechanisms for the expression of consumer choice regarding the collection of information about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services (e.g., browser do not track signals), but there is no universally-agreed upon standard for what a company should do when it detects a DNT signal. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms. You can learn more about Do Not Track here.
Opt-Out Preference Signals
We respect opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control (“GPC”). GPC is a privacy-focused technology implemented as a setting or extension in some web browsers. It allows users to signal their preference to opt out of certain types of data processing, including the sale or sharing of personal information, across multiple websites simultaneously.
When we detect a GPC signal from your browser:
- We will automatically treat it as a valid request to opt out of all sales and sharing of your Personal Information.
- We will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices as required by applicable law.
- This opt-out will apply to data processing on the specific browser and device from which the signal is detected.
Please note that GPC is a browser-level setting. If you use multiple browsers or devices, you may need to enable GPC on each one separately. The effectiveness of GPC also depends on your browser’s implementation and support for this feature.
For users in regions where GPC is recognized by law (such as California), we treat GPC signals as legally valid opt-out requests. For users in other regions, we still honor GPC signals as a matter of good privacy practice, though the legal implications may vary.
If you’re unsure whether your browser supports GPC or how to enable it, please check your browser’s privacy settings or extensions. Alternatively, you can use our website’s privacy controls to manage your preferences directly.
We regularly review and update our practices regarding opt-out mechanisms to ensure compliance with evolving privacy laws and to respect user choices. If you have any questions about how we handle GPC or other opt-out signals, please contact us using the information provided in the “Contact Us” section of this policy.
Visitors to the Site Outside of the United States
If you are visiting the Site from a location outside of the U.S., your connection will be through and to servers located in the U.S. All information you receive from the Site will be created on servers located in the U.S., and all information you provide will be maintained on web servers and systems located within the U.S. The data protection laws in the United States may differ from those of the country in which you are located, and your information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, or law enforcement in the United States according to laws of the United States. By using the Site or providing us with any information, you consent to the transfer to, and processing, usage, sharing and storage of your information in the United States and in other countries, as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
Updating Personal Information
We prefer to keep your Personal Information accurate and up to date. If you would like to change your contact information, please contact us at noreply@scottlawteam.com. We will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in our then active databases as soon as reasonably practicable (but we may retain prior information as business records).
All registered users have the right to request the correction or removal of certain content they have publicly posted on a Site, as required by applicable law. You may be able to remove the content through your online account. Otherwise, you may request that Firm remove or correct the content by contacting us at noreply@scottlawteam.com. In some circumstances, we may maintain the content but remove any reference to you so that the posts are anonymized. When submitting a request, please be sure to include your full name, email address, and information sufficient to permit us to locate the content you are requesting us to remove. You may also request the deletion of your account by emailing noreply@scottlawteam.com. We will make such requested changes in our then active databases as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of the request or as otherwise as required by law. To the extent permissible by law, note that any removal of public postings in accordance with these procedures does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of the content or information you posted, which may persist in archival records or may have been copied by third parties while publicly accessible, and that deleting your account may not result in the removal of the public postings.
Links
For your convenience, the Site and this Privacy Policy may contain links to other websites. SLT is not responsible for the privacy practices, advertising, products, services, or the content of such other websites. None of the links on the Site should be deemed to imply that SLT endorses or has any affiliation with the links. Please see our Terms of Use for more information.
Security
We incorporate commercially reasonable safeguards to help protect and secure your Personal Information. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission, or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from our Site, and you provide us with your information at your own risk.
Retention of Personal Information
SLT will retain your Personal Information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice. We will retain and use your Personal Information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes and enforce our legal agreements and policies. We will not retain Personal Information for longer than is reasonably necessary for each disclosed purpose.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our third-party data storage providers.
We utilize the following criteria to determine the length of time for which we retain Personal Information:
-
The nature and sensitivity of the Personal Information
-
The purpose for which the information was collected and is used
-
The ongoing necessity of the information for the purposes it was collected
-
Legal and regulatory requirements that necessitate retention
-
Applicable statutes of limitations
-
The context in which the information was collected
-
How long we have had a relationship with you or provided our Services to you;
-
The business purposes for which the information is used, and the length of time for which the information is required to achieve those purposes;
-
Whether we are required to retain the information, or the information is otherwise necessary, in order to: comply with legal obligations or contractual commitments; defend against potential legal claims; detect or prevent potential illegal activity or actions in violation of our policies and procedures; secure our systems and online environment; or protect health and safety;
-
The privacy impact on individuals of ongoing retention; and
-
The manner in which information is maintained and flows through our systems, and how best to manage the lifecycle of information in light of the volume and complexity of the systems in our infrastructure
-
Industry standards and best practices
Based on these criteria, retention periods may vary for different categories of Personal Information. We generally apply these criteria to determine retention periods for the following categories:
- Identifiers (e.g., name, email)
- Customer Records
- Protected Classifications
- Commercial Information
- Biometric Information (if collected)
- Internet Activity
- Geolocation Data (if collected)
- Sensory Data (if collected)
- Professional Information
- Education Information (if collected)
- Inferences
- Sensitive Personal Information
For each of these categories, we retain the information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, and in compliance with applicable laws. For example:
- Identifiers: Retained for the duration of our active relationship with you, and for a reasonable period thereafter to address any follow-up inquiries or potential legal claims.
- Customer/Client Records: Retained for the period required by applicable tax and consumer protection laws and/or applicable Rules of Professional Conduct, and for a reasonable period thereafter to address potential legal claims.
- Commercial Information: Retained for the period necessary to fulfill the transaction and any warranties, plus any additional period required for tax or accounting purposes.
- Internet Activity: Retained for a period necessary to fulfill the purpose of collection (e.g., improving our Services), typically not exceeding the duration required for that purpose.
- Sensitive Personal Information: Retained for the shortest period necessary to fulfill the specific purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention is explicitly consented to or required by law.
These retention periods may be extended if we are required to retain the information to comply with applicable laws, resolve disputes, or enforce our legal agreements and policies. Conversely, we may delete the information sooner if you request its deletion and there is no legal basis for its continued retention.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our third-party data storage providers. We implement and maintain reasonable security procedures and practices appropriate to the nature of the information, to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure.
You have the right to request that we delete your Personal Information, subject to certain exceptions. For more information on how to exercise this right, please see the “Your Rights and Choices” section of this Privacy Policy.
We regularly review our retention practices to ensure compliance with this policy and applicable laws. Our Data Protection Officer oversees these reviews and any necessary updates to our retention practices. If you have questions about how long we retain specific pieces of your information, please contact us using the information provided in the “Contact Us” section of this policy.
Your Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulation
This section of our Privacy Policy applies if you are a data subject who resides or is located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). We adopted this section to comply with European privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Any terms defined in the GDPR have the same meaning when used in this section.
Under applicable law, we are considered the “data controller” of the Personal Information we handle under this Notice. In other words, we are responsible for deciding how to collect, use and disclose this information, subject to applicable law.
We hope to ensure that the Personal Information we possess is always accurate and therefore we encourage you to update your information in your own account in case any changes have occurred. We have listed below the rights that you may be able to exercise in respect of the processing of your Personal Information, subject to applicable law.

We use account-related data to set up accounts for users in our platform and to administer and support those accounts (such as usernames, email address and billing information), provide you with access to the Services, contact you regarding your use of the Services or to notify you of important changes to the Services. Such use is necessary for the performance of the contract between you and us.
-
We will send you information by email on our new services or other promotions only with your consent or if you otherwise opt-in to receiving those communications.

You have the right to object to processing that is based on our legitimate interests, as further described below.

We will respond to your request within 30 days or let you know if we need additional time.
Please note that we will ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests, and we may deny your request if we are unable to verify your identity or authority to make the request.
Should you wish to raise a concern about our use of your data (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local supervisory authority; however, we hope that we can assist with any queries or concerns you may have about our use of your Personal Information first by contacting us using the information in the Contact Us section below:

If we share your personal data within Firm or with third parties located outside the United Kingdom, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to guarantee the continued protection of your personal data, such as by entering into the international data transfer addendum to the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, adopted by the UK Government under section 119A of the Data Protection Act 2018.
You have the same data subject rights as those for the EU listed above, except that references to the “GDPR” should be read as references to the “UK GDPR” and complaints should be filed with the UK supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner’s Office.
