Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

1. Introduction

CourtReady ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our AI-powered case preparation service. Given the sensitive nature of family law matters, we take data protection extremely seriously.

Our Privacy Commitment

We understand that the information you share with CourtReady is deeply personal and sensitive. We are committed to:

  • Never selling your data to third parties
  • Encrypting all data in transit and at rest
  • Minimizing data collection to only what is necessary
  • Giving you control over your data, including the right to delete it
  • Never using your case data to train AI models

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials through our OAuth provider. We also store your selected state jurisdiction for legal context.

Case Data

You may voluntarily provide evidence entries, communication records, documents, and other case-related information. This data is stored securely and is only accessible to you (and anyone you explicitly share it with).

Usage Data

We collect anonymized usage data such as feature usage patterns, page views, and session duration to improve the Service. This data does not include any case-specific content.

Payment Information

Payment processing is handled by Stripe. We do not store your credit card numbers, CVV, or full payment details. We only retain your Stripe customer ID and subscription status.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide and maintain the Service, including AI-powered analysis features
  • Process your evidence and generate case preparation materials
  • Manage your account and subscription
  • Send important service-related notifications
  • Improve and optimize the Service based on anonymized usage patterns
  • Comply with legal obligations

4. AI Processing

When you use AI-powered features (Evidence Maximizer, Communication Scanner, Gap Detector, Court Simulator, Timeline Storyteller, Brief Generator), your content is sent to our AI processing service for analysis. This processing is done in real-time and the AI does not retain your data after generating a response.

We do not use your case data to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models. Your data is processed solely to provide you with the requested analysis.

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

  • With your consent: When you use the Share feature to send case materials to an attorney
  • Service providers: With trusted third-party services (hosting, payment processing) that are contractually bound to protect your data
  • Legal requirements: When required by law, subpoena, or court order
  • Safety: To protect the rights, property, or safety of CourtReady, our users, or the public

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including:

  • TLS/SSL encryption for all data in transit
  • Encryption at rest for stored data
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
  • Access controls limiting employee access to user data
  • Secure authentication via OAuth

While we strive to protect your data, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Data Retention

We retain your account and case data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data and case content within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

Anonymized, aggregated data that cannot be used to identify you may be retained indefinitely for analytical purposes.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate personal data
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data
  • Portability: Request a machine-readable copy of your data
  • Objection: Object to certain processing of your data

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

9. Children's Privacy

CourtReady is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child under 18, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

10. Cookies and Tracking

We use essential cookies to maintain your session and authentication state. We may use anonymized analytics to understand how the Service is used. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or trackers.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
