Last updated: November 10, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how LAW OFFICE OF BRIAN ARMSTRONG (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, shares and protects personal information when you visit lawrjb.org (the “Website”) or contact us through it. It also explains the choices and rights you have.

2. Information We Collect
Information you provide
When you use our contact form or email us, we collect the information you choose to give us: your name, email address, phone number (optional), subject and the content of your message, as well as a record of your agreement to this Privacy Policy.
Information collected automatically
- Server logs. Our hosting provider automatically records technical data needed to deliver and secure the Website, such as IP address, date and time of the request, pages requested, browser type and referring page.
- Cookie preferences. We store your cookie choice in your browser so we do not ask again on every page.
- Analytics (only with your consent). If you allow analytics cookies, we collect information about how visitors use the Website, such as pages viewed and time spent. See our Cookie Policy.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information through the Website. Please do not send confidential or sensitive details through the contact form.
3. How and Why We Use Your Information
| Purpose | Information used | Legal basis (GDPR / UK GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Responding to your inquiry and arranging a consultation | Contact form data, emails | Steps at your request before entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); your consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) |
| Operating, securing and preventing abuse of the Website | Server logs, spam-prevention data | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) |
| Remembering your cookie choices | Consent record stored in your browser | Legal obligation and legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(c), (f)) |
| Understanding how the Website is used | Analytics data | Your consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) |

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share it only with:
- Service providers who process it on our behalf under contract, such as our website host, form-processing provider and email provider, and (only if you consent) our analytics provider;
- Authorities or other parties where required by law, court order or professional rules, or to protect our rights;
- A successor in the event of a merger or reorganization of our practice, subject to this Policy.
5. International Transfers
We are located in the United States, and our service providers may process information in the United States or other countries. Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers, such as the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses.
6. How Long We Keep Information
- Inquiries that do not lead to an engagement: up to 24 months, then deleted, unless we must keep them longer for conflict checks or legal reasons.
- Server logs: usually no longer than 30 days, unless needed to investigate a security incident.
- Cookie consent record: 12 months, after which we ask again.
- If you become a client, your information is kept in accordance with our engagement letter and professional record-keeping obligations.
7. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections and restricted access. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your Rights
Everyone
You may ask us to access, correct or delete the personal information you have sent us, and you may withdraw any consent at any time (for cookies, use the link). Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before.
EEA, UK and Swiss residents
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and to object to processing based on legitimate interests. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
California and other U.S. state residents
Depending on your state of residence (for example under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA), you may have the right to know what personal information we collect, use and disclose; to access, correct and delete it; to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of targeted advertising; and to limit the use of sensitive personal information. We do not sell or share personal information, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request.
How to exercise your rights
Email us at info@lawrjb.org or call +1 (448) 867-7516. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. We will respond within the time required by applicable law (generally 30 days under the GDPR and 45 days under the CCPA).
9. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
Our Website recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends it, we treat it as a request to opt out of non-essential cookies. There is no common standard for “Do Not Track” signals; we follow your cookie choices instead.
10. Children
The Website is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
11. No Attorney-Client Relationship
Sending us information through the Website does not create an attorney-client relationship. Until we have agreed in writing to represent you, please do not send confidential information.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last changed. Significant changes will be highlighted on the Website.
