Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026 · Last Updated: April 2026
Overview
LawsuitSettlementEstimator.com ("we," "our," or "the Site") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have about that information. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.
What Data We Collect
Calculator inputs: The numbers you enter into our calculators (medical bills, lost wages, fault percentage, etc.) are processed entirely in your browser and are never transmitted to our servers or stored by us. We do not see or retain your calculator inputs.
Attorney Memo purchase: If you purchase an Attorney Case Summary Memo, we collect your first name and email address through our payment processor (Stripe) for the purpose of delivering your PDF. If you check the optional attorney connection box at checkout, we also collect your phone number.
Contact form: If you submit the contact form at /contact, we collect your name, email address, and message content solely to respond to your inquiry.
Automatically collected data: Like most websites, we collect standard web analytics data including IP addresses, browser type, pages visited, and referring URLs through Vercel Analytics and Google Analytics 4. This data is aggregated and not tied to your identity.
How We Use Your Data
We use your name and email address exclusively to deliver your Attorney Memo PDF after purchase. We do not use this information for general marketing, do not subscribe you to any mailing list, and do not contact you for purposes other than memo delivery unless you separately request it.
If you opt in to the free attorney connection at checkout, your name, phone number, state, and a summary of your case type are shared with a licensed attorney or law firm in our network for the purpose of scheduling a consultation. You will receive one contact — a call or email — from that attorney or firm. This sharing occurs only when you explicitly check the opt-in box and complete your purchase.
Third-Party Sharing
We share your personal information only in the following circumstances:
With attorneys or law firms: Only when you explicitly check the attorney connection opt-in box at checkout. We share only the information necessary to facilitate the consultation: your name, phone number, state, and case type. The receiving attorney or firm may follow up with you directly. This is the only circumstance in which your personal information leaves this site.
With payment processors:Stripe processes all payments. We do not store credit card numbers. Stripe's privacy policy governs its handling of payment information.
With analytics providers: Vercel Analytics and Google Analytics 4 receive aggregated usage data. This data does not include your calculator inputs or any personal identifiers beyond what is standard in web analytics.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes. We share your information with attorneys or law firms only when you explicitly opt in at checkout. We do not sell your data to data brokers or general marketing lists.
Cookies and Analytics
Vercel Analytics operates without cookies and does not use persistent identifiers. Google Analytics 4 uses cookies to distinguish users and sessions; it may use your IP address to determine general geographic location. You may opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by adjusting your browser settings to block third-party cookies.
California Rights — CCPA
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we have collected about you, to request deletion of your personal information, to opt out of the sale of your personal information (we do not sell personal information), and to non-discrimination for exercising these rights.
To exercise these rights, contact us using the form at /contact with the subject "California Privacy Request." We will respond within 45 days.
Data Retention
Purchase records (name, email, payment confirmation) are retained for 7 years for accounting and legal compliance purposes. Contact form submissions are retained for 90 days. Analytics data is retained in accordance with the applicable provider's standard retention policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date above. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
