Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 23, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Guillen-Gonzalez Law Professional Corporation ("the firm," "we," "us") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit guillengonzalezlaw.com (the "site"), use our intake assistant or interactive tools, or contact us. It describes the choices you have, including how to opt out of analytics. This policy is about our website; it is general information and not legal advice.

1. Information we collect

We collect only what we need to respond to you and run the site:

• Information you give us — when you submit the contact form, use the chatbot, or email a tool summary, we receive details such as your name, email, phone, and a description of your matter. Please do not send sensitive details (such as Social Security or A-numbers) through the site.
• Interactive tool answers — the self-assessment tools run in your browser; your answers stay on your device unless you choose to email yourself a summary, in which case your answers and contact details are sent to the firm.
• Chatbot messages — messages you send to the intake assistant are transmitted to our AI provider to generate a reply (see "Service providers" below). Before your message is stored by the firm or recorded in our systems, a deterministic filter removes identifiers like SSNs and A-numbers. The chat is not confidential and creates no attorney-client relationship; please don't share sensitive identifiers.
• Consultation intake and NIW review requests — the Spanish intake form (/es/empezar/) and the optional attorney-review request on the EB-2 NIW self-screen (/niw/self-screen/) ask only for what the firm needs to check for conflicts of interest and contact you: for example your name, email, optional phone, the type of matter, the names of related people or employers, and your preferred contact method and language. The self-screen questions run in your browser; your answers are sent only if you choose to attach them to a review request. These forms do not ask you to describe your case and do not accept documents — if documents are needed, the firm will request them securely after the conflict check. Submissions go through the same contact system as our other forms, which emails the firm and keeps a record of your inquiry. These growth forms do not use submitted information to trigger advertising conversion events from the growth flow. The firm may use service providers to operate its website, communications, and intake systems as described in this Policy.
• Usage & device information — like most sites, we collect standard analytics data (pages viewed, approximate location, device/browser type) through cookies, as described below.

2. How we use your information

• To respond to your inquiry, schedule consultations, and follow up.
• To operate, secure, and improve the site and our services.
• To comply with our legal and professional obligations.

We do not sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we do not use it for purposes unrelated to those above.

3. Cookies & analytics

We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site. It sets cookies and collects usage data; GA4 does not log or retain IP addresses. We use this only to improve the site — not to advertise to you.

Your choice: you can opt out of analytics at any time using the button below (it stops Google Analytics on this site for your browser), or by using your browser's cookie controls or a tracker-blocking extension.

✓ Analytics is now disabled for your browser on this site.

Consent & your choices. Nothing non-essential runs by default. Our cookie banner lets you choose Accept all, Analytics only (analytics without advertising cookies), or Decline — analytics and advertising are separate opt-ins. We use Google Consent Mode to enforce your choice. You can change it any time via the "Your Privacy Choices" link in the site footer.

Global Privacy Control (GPC). If your browser sends a GPC signal, we automatically treat it as an opt-out of any "sale" or "sharing" of your information for advertising — no click required — and advertising tags do not load for your browser.

Consultation, pricing, intake and EB-2 NIW pages

Informational pages (/es/consulta/, /pricing/, /es/verificar-abogado/, /niw/, /niw/assessment/ and /niw/approval-data/) use a reduced set of technologies. They do not load the Meta Pixel, Microsoft Clarity, PostHog, session replay or third-party fonts. They load Google Analytics (GA4) only if you have already accepted analytics on this site, and then only for page views and a few button and download clicks, with Google's advertising storage and advertising signals turned off. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, GA4 does not load on these pages.

Intake and self-screen pages (/es/empezar/, /es/gracias/, /es/boletin/ and /niw/self-screen/) load no analytics, advertising pixels, session replay or third-party fonts, and opening them does not send a request to any third party.

Newsletter. The Spanish-language newsletter is not active yet, and its page does not collect email addresses. We will update this policy before newsletter sign-ups open.

4. Service providers

We use a small number of trusted providers that process data on our behalf:

• Amazon Web Services (AWS) — website hosting and sending the firm your contact/intake emails.
• Anthropic — powers the intake chatbot (your message is sent to its API to generate a reply; the API key is never exposed to your browser).
• Google Analytics — site usage analytics (see above).
• Calendly — appointment scheduling when you book a consultation.
• Microsoft Clarity and PostHog — privacy-first behavior analytics (session replay and heatmaps) that load only if you accept analytics. Form fields and text you type are masked and never recorded.
• Meta Platforms — if you accept advertising cookies (and only when no Global Privacy Control signal is present), we use the Meta Pixel and Conversions API to measure our ads. If you message us on WhatsApp from an ad or our site, that conversation is handled by WhatsApp (Meta).
• Sentry — error and reliability monitoring so we can fix problems quickly. It receives technical error data with personal identifiers scrubbed; it helps keep the site working and secure.
• Google Fonts — the site's typefaces load from Google's servers, which means your IP address is visible to Google when a page loads its fonts. No cookies are set for this. The consultation, pricing, intake and EB-2 NIW pages described in section 3 do not load Google Fonts.

We share information with these providers only as needed to run the site and (with your consent) to measure our advertising, or where required by law. We do not sell your information for money. A full list — data category, purpose, region, retention, and the governing data-processing agreement — is kept in our processor register.

5. Your privacy rights

California (CCPA/CPRA): California residents may request to know, delete, or correct the personal information we hold, and to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. We do not sell your information for money; we only "share" it for cross-context advertising if you opt in, and we honor the Global Privacy Control signal and the footer "Your Privacy Choices" control as your opt-out. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

EU/UK (GDPR), where applicable: you may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. To exercise any right, email gabriel@guillengonzalezlaw.com and we will respond as required by law. We may need to verify your identity first.

6. Data retention & security

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above or as our professional and legal obligations require, then delete or de-identify it. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect information, though no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

7. Children's privacy

The site is intended for adults seeking legal services and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and change the effective date above.

This Privacy Policy describes our website's data practices and is general information, not legal advice. Using the site, the chatbot, or the tools does not create an attorney-client relationship.
