Last updated: November 12, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how MyLawyerDot ("MyLawyerDot," "we," "us" or "our") collects, uses and shares personal information when you use MyLawyerDot.com, our self-help legal forms, our legal education content and any related services (together, the "Services"). By using the Services, you agree to the practices described here.
MyLawyerDot is not a law firm
MyLawyerDot provides self-help legal forms and general legal education. We are not a law firm, and the Services are not legal services. We do not give legal advice, and using the Services does not create an attorney-client relationship. Information you provide through the Services is not protected by attorney-client privilege or the confidentiality rules that apply to lawyers and their clients.
Information we collect
The information we collect depends on which Services you use. It may include:
- Contact and account information, such as your name, email address, mailing address, phone number and any account login details.
- Form and document information. Your answers when you complete a form, which become part of your document. Depending on the form, this may include information about your family, relationships, property, finances, employment, legal matters, and your wishes about future medical care or end-of-life decisions.
- Information about other people you include in a form, such as an agent, spouse, child, beneficiary or witness. If you give us information about someone else, you confirm that you are entitled to share it.
- Payment information, if you buy a product or membership. Payments are handled by third-party payment processors, and we do not store full card numbers.
- Education and participation information, such as courses, guides or events you sign up for, and your progress in them.
- Communications, such as messages, questions and feedback you send us.
- Device and usage information collected automatically when you use the Services, such as your IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, links clicked and the dates and times of your visits.
Cookies and similar technologies
We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember your preferences, keep the Services secure and understand how they are used. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, but some features may not work without them.

Third-party processors
We use third-party service providers that process information on our behalf, such as our document-automation provider, which processes your form answers, generates your document and delivers it to you. These providers may use your information only to perform services for us and must protect it. Our providers use industry-standard safeguards, including encryption of information in transit and at rest.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share the information you enter into our forms for targeted advertising. We may share information:

We may also share information that has been de-identified or aggregated so that it does not identify you.
How long we keep information
We keep personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including to provide the Services, keep business records and meet legal obligations, and then delete or de-identify it.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect personal information. No method of transmitting or storing information online is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
