Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, protect, and share information submitted through this website.

This Privacy Policy describes how Knight Law Group, LLP (the “Firm,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), operator of the “Data Center Legal Action” brand and the website www.datacenterlegalaction.com (the “Site”), collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit the Site, submit a case review request, or otherwise communicate with us. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here and to our Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. Personal Information We Collect

Information you provide

  • Identifiers and contact details — your name, email address, phone number, and property or mailing address when you submit a case review request or contact us.
  • Case details — the location of a nearby data center and your description of what you are experiencing (for example, noise, water, air, health, or property-value concerns). Some of what you choose to share may be sensitive (for example, health-related effects).
  • Communications — the content of emails, calls, and, if you opt in, text messages exchanged with us, and records of your consent choices.

Information collected automatically

  • Device and usage data — IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, referring pages, approximate location derived from IP address, and the date and time of your visit, collected through server logs, cookies, and similar technologies.
  • Analytics data — we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects device and usage data as described at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can opt out via the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
  • Advertising pixels and tags — we use advertising technologies from third parties such as Meta (Facebook) and Google Ads to measure the performance of our advertising and to show ads for our services to people who have visited the Site (sometimes called “retargeting” or targeted advertising). These technologies may collect identifiers, device information, and information about your activity on the Site and combine it with information from other websites.

2. How We Use Personal Information

  • To evaluate and respond to your case review request and follow up with you about it.
  • To connect you with a partner law firm or co-counsel where your potential matter requires it (see Section 3).
  • To communicate with you by email, phone, and — only if you separately opt in — text message (see our SMS Terms).
  • To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site, and to measure and improve our advertising.
  • To comply with legal and professional obligations, including conflict-of-interest checks and record-keeping rules that apply to law practices.
  • To establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

3. How We Disclose Personal Information

We disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients, for the purposes described:

  • Partner law firms and co-counsel. If the Firm determines that your potential matter may be handled by, or requires association with, another law firm — for example, a firm licensed in your state — we will share your identifiers, contact details, and case details with that firm so it can evaluate and, if appropriate, pursue your matter. These firms are independent of the Firm and will handle your information under their own professional obligations. By submitting a case review request, you consent to this sharing.
  • Experts and consultants retained in connection with evaluating or pursuing a claim (for example, acoustic, hydrology, or appraisal experts), where relevant.
  • Service providers that help us operate the Site and our intake, communications, and advertising (for example, website hosting, email delivery, text-messaging, analytics, and advertising platforms), under obligations limiting their use of the information.
  • Legal and safety recipients when required by law, subpoena, or court order, or when necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of the Firm, our clients, or others.
  • Successors in the event of a merger, reorganization, or transfer of the practice, subject to the professional rules that govern client files.

“Sale” and “sharing” under California law. We do not sell personal information for money. However, our use of third-party advertising pixels described in Section 1 may be considered “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended. In the twelve months preceding the date above, the categories involved were identifiers and internet/device activity, disclosed to advertising networks for advertising purposes. You can opt out as described in Section 7. [ATTORNEY TO CONFIRM: whether any referral-fee or fee-division arrangement with a partner firm constitutes an exchange of personal information for “valuable consideration” (a “sale” under the CCPA), and whether the notice and opt-out language here should be broadened accordingly.]

We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of consumers under 16 years of age.

4. Text Messaging Privacy

If you opt in to text messages, we may text you to schedule and conduct your case review and to follow up on your inquiry. Mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in status, and text-messaging consent data will not be sold, rented, or shared with any third parties, affiliates, or lead generators for their marketing or promotional purposes under any circumstances. Text-messaging originator opt-in data and consent are used only to provide you the messaging service you requested and, where needed, are processed by our text-messaging service providers solely on our behalf. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, or get assistance by replying HELP. See the SMS Terms for full program details.

5. Cookies and Advertising Choices

  • Browser controls — most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings; disabling cookies may affect some Site features.
  • Analytics — use the Google Analytics opt-out add-on linked in Section 1.
  • Targeted advertising — you can limit personalized ads through your accounts with Google (adssettings.google.com) and Meta (ad preferences), and through industry tools such as optout.aboutads.info.
  • Do Not Sell or Share — see Section 7.

6. Data Retention and Security

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described above, including the period needed to evaluate an inquiry, to comply with legal and professional record-keeping obligations (including conflict-checking), and to resolve disputes. Inquiry information that does not lead to an engagement is retained only as long as needed for those purposes, then deleted or anonymized.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not include highly sensitive details in a case review request; a secure channel will be established if a firm takes on your matter.

7. Your Privacy Choices / Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

If you would like to opt out of the “sharing” of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising (and of any “sale,” to the extent one occurs), email us at Ops@KnightLaw.com with the subject line “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information”, including the name, email address, and phone number you used with the Site. We will stop disclosing your personal information to advertising networks and apply your choice within the time required by law. You can also use the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the footer of every page of the Site, which brings you to this section.

Opt-out preference signals (Global Privacy Control). We honor the browser-based Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal automatically. If your browser or a browser extension sends the GPC signal, we treat it as a valid request to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information for that browser: advertising pixels and similar cross-context behavioral advertising technologies are disabled for your visit, and your choice is remembered on that browser. No account or login is required. Because the signal is browser-based, please enable GPC on each browser and device you use, or email us as described above to apply your choice across our records. [ATTORNEY TO CONFIRM: the footer link and automatic GPC handling are implemented site-wide; confirm whether the Firm is a covered business under the CCPA thresholds. If it is not covered, counsel may simplify this section, but the technical implementation can remain as a best practice.]

8. State Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, state law — including the CCPA for California residents — may give you the right to:

  • Know / access the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the purposes, and the categories of recipients;
  • Delete personal information we collected from you, subject to legal exceptions (including records law firms must keep);
  • Correct inaccurate personal information;
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (see Section 7) and, where applicable, of targeted advertising;
  • Limit the use of sensitive personal information, where applicable; and
  • Non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at Ops@KnightLaw.com or +1 (424) 239-1054. We will verify your request (for example, by matching the contact details you provided through the Site) and respond within the time required by the law that applies to you. You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf where the law allows. Note that information protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work-product doctrine, and information we must retain under professional rules, may be exempt from certain requests.

9. Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us at Ops@KnightLaw.com and we will delete it.

10. Third-Party Sites

The Site may link to third-party websites, such as news sources or government resources. Their privacy practices are their own; this Policy does not apply to them.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The revised version will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Material changes may also be highlighted on the Site.
