Privacy Policy
The Kent Law Firm, APC
Effective Date: July 14, 2026
Last Updated: July 14, 2026
1. Introduction
The Kent Law Firm, APC (“the Firm,” “we,” “our,” “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. We understand that visitors to our website may be dealing with serious legal matters, and we treat your information with the discretion that demands. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit not-guilty.org, request a consultation, or contact us. By using our website, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
This website is intended for users located in the United States.
2. Confidentiality and Discretion
We understand that researching criminal defense is sensitive. This website does not use advertising, analytics, or tracking technologies that share your browsing activity with third-party marketing platforms — the pages you view on this website are not reported to advertisers.
A note about your own device: if you are concerned that someone else may have access to your device, browser history, or email, consider using a private/incognito browser window or a personal device. You can also contact us directly by phone at (714) 401-3827.
3. Attorney-Client Privilege
This Privacy Policy governs information collected through our website only. Information you share with us as a client, or in the course of seeking legal representation, is protected by attorney-client privilege and our professional duty of confidentiality under the California Rules of Professional Conduct. However, submitting information through this website does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive details about your legal matter through website forms or email until we have confirmed our representation of you.
4. Information We Collect
4.1 Information You Provide
When you interact with our website, you may provide personal information, including: name, email address, phone number, a general description of your legal matter or inquiry, and any information you include in a contact form message or blog comment.
4.2 Information Collected Automatically
When you visit our website, certain information is collected automatically, including: IP address, browser type and version, device information, pages visited and interaction data, and cookies. For details see our Cookie Policy at https://not-guilty.org/cookie-policy/
5. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to: respond to consultation requests and inquiries, evaluate whether and how we can assist with your matter, schedule consultations, provide legal representation you engage us for, manage blog comments, improve our website, maintain business records, and comply with applicable law and professional obligations.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
6. Sharing of Information
Given the nature of criminal defense work, we are highly restrictive about sharing information:
6.1 Service Providers — such as our website hosting provider, form-processing tools, and email services, who may use your information only to perform services for us.
6.2 Legal Requirements — when required by law, court order, or valid legal process — subject always to our professional duties of confidentiality where an attorney-client relationship exists.
6.3 With Your Direction — for example, coordinating with co-counsel or expert witnesses in the course of your representation.
Case information obtained during an engagement is handled under the confidentiality terms of that engagement and applicable professional rules, which provide protections far stronger than this website policy.
7. Third-Party Services on This Website
Our website uses a small number of third-party services: Google Fonts (typography) and a reviews display plugin that shows our Google and Yelp reviews. These services may set cookies or receive technical data from your browser. Our website also links to our social media profiles (Facebook, X, YouTube, LinkedIn) and professional directories (Avvo); these are plain links and no social tracking pixels are embedded.
8. Blog Comments
If you comment on our blog articles, your name, email address, and IP address are collected with the comment. Comments and names are publicly visible once approved. Do not include details about your legal matter in public comments — we may edit or remove comments containing case-specific or confidential information to protect your interests.
9. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on applicable laws, you may have the right to: request access to your personal information, request corrections, request deletion where legally permitted, and opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting us.
California residents have additional rights — see our CA Privacy Policy at https://not-guilty.org/ca-privacy-policy/ and our Opt-out Preferences page at https://not-guilty.org/opt-out-preferences/
10. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies for functionality and to remember your consent preferences. We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies. See our Cookie Policy at https://not-guilty.org/cookie-policy/ for details and choices.
11. Global Privacy Control
We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends a GPC signal we will treat it as a valid opt-out request under the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
12. Data Security
We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to safeguard your information, consistent with the confidentiality obligations of a law practice. However, no method of internet transmission is completely secure — for sensitive matters, call us rather than using web forms.
13. Data Retention
We retain personal information as long as necessary for our operations and to comply with our legal, professional, and ethical obligations, including case and engagement records where applicable.
14. Children’s Privacy
Our website is a general audience website intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
15. Third-Party Links
Our website contains links to third-party websites, including court websites, professional directories, and social media. We are not responsible for their privacy practices or content.
16. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
