Privacy Notice
This Privacy Notice describes how Community Law Group (“we,” “our,” or “the Firm”) collects, uses, and protects the personal information you provide through our website. By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this notice.
We recommend that you read this Privacy Notice in full to ensure you are fully informed about the privacy and handling of your data. Likewise, if you only wish to view a specific section of this article, you can click on the corresponding link below to go to that section.
What does Community Law Group do?
Community Law Group acts as a comprehensive legal services provider in Nashville, TN, offering legal representation in civil, criminal, and immigration proceedings.
Our offices are located in Nashville and Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States. For more information about Community Law Group, please visit the “About Us” section of our website at https://communitylawgroup.com/about-us/
How Does This Privacy Notice Apply?
This Privacy Notice applies only to personal information we collect that may be used for direct communication with our clients or individuals interested in our legal advisory, consulting, and/or support services, as well as individuals who respond to our surveys, marketing materials, or participate in commercial promotions or contests that we may hold from time to time.
This Privacy Notice applies to the processing of personal information by Community Law Group as a data controller. When we say that Community Law Group acts as a “controller,” we mean that Community Law Group determines the purpose and means of processing (i.e., we make decisions about how we will handle your basic personal information). This means that, when directed by a Community Law Group User, we may facilitate the processing of basic personal information. This Privacy Notice does not cover Processor Services. If you are a visitor to Community Law Group and want to know how your personal information is handled, please contact the Community Law Group User directly and/or review any privacy notice on the relevant website.
If you provide us with information about another person (for example, if you are acting as a representative of an individual), you must provide them with a copy of this Privacy Notice and inform them that we will use their personal information as outlined in this Privacy Notice.
What Personal Information Do We Collect?
The personal information we may collect about you generally falls into the following categories:
Information You Provide Voluntarily
When you provide information to register as a member of our Community Law Group database, or if you are a client, we may ask you to provide your email address or SMS number. You can unsubscribe from receiving marketing communications from us at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in the marketing emails or SMS messages we may send you or by completing our Data Request Form.
You may also provide us with personal information when making inquiries or submitting a report (such as an intellectual property report or a counter-notification). For instance, we may ask you to provide your name and email address so we can respond to your inquiries. If you are a new visitor and wish to start using our legal advisory or representation services, we may ask for your email address, mobile phone number, date of birth or age, or other personal information to process this in our database and contact you promptly in response to your request.
You may also voluntarily provide personal information by responding to our surveys, marketing materials, or by participating in commercial promotions and contests that we may hold from time to time.
Information we Collect Automatically
When you visit our website, respond to a survey, or participate in a commercial promotion, we automatically collect certain information from your device. Specifically, the information we collect automatically may include details such as your IP address, device type, unique device identifiers, browser type, broad geographic location (e.g., country or city-level location), time zone, usage data, diagnostic data, and other technical information. We may also gather information about how your device has interacted with our website, including the pages accessed and links clicked.
Collecting this information helps us understand you better, where you are coming from, and what content interests you. We use this information for our internal analytics purposes, to improve the quality and relevance of our website and services, and to provide better support, covering all current and relevant topics of interest. Some of this information may be collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies, as explained in more detail in the section “How Do We Use Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies?” below.
Children’s Data
Our services are not intended for use by children under the age of 18 without the presence of their legal guardian (the “Age Limit”). If you are a parent or guardian and become aware that a person under the Age Limit, for whom you are responsible, has provided us with personal information, please contact us. Upon receiving such notification or discovery, we will make all reasonable efforts to delete or destroy any personal information we have collected or stored about that person.
Why Do We Collect Your Personal Information?
In general, we use the information we collect for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice or for purposes that we explain to you at the time we collect your personal information.
- To conduct consumer research and to allow you to participate in surveys or interactive features of Community Law Group Services, if you choose to do so.
- To provide customer support and to process and respond to a request, complaint, Intellectual Property Report, or Counter Notification that you have submitted.
- To process payments for users of paid plans.
- For business prospecting and analysis.
- To deliver promotional materials, special offers, and general information about other goods, services, and events that we offer that are similar to those you have already purchased or inquired about, unless you have opted out of receiving such information.
- For company administration, including fulfilling and exercising our obligations and rights, defending legal claims, complying with our legal obligations and law enforcement requests, and managing our relationship with you.
Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information
Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described above will depend on the specific personal information in question and the circumstances under which we collect it.
However, we will typically collect your personal information only when we have your consent, when we need the personal information to fulfill a contract with you, or when the processing is in our legitimate interest and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information about you, or we may need the personal information to protect your vital interests or those of another person.
If we request that you provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement, we will make that clear at the relevant time and inform you whether providing your personal information is mandatory (as well as the possible consequences if you do not provide it).
If we collect and use your personal information based on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), this interest will generally be to develop and improve the services of Community Law Group, provide additional functionality, ensure adequate security, or implement confidential content, warnings, and content moderation. We may have other legitimate interests, and if applicable, we will make it clear at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.
If you have any questions or need more information about the legal basis on which we collect and use your personal information, please contact us using the contact details provided in the “contact us” header.
Who We May Share Your Personal Information With
We may disclose your personal information to the following categories of recipients:
To companies within our group, external service providers (for example, to support delivery, provide functionality, or help improve the security of our platform or Community Law Group services), or otherwise process personal information for the purposes described in this privacy notice or as notified to you when we collect your personal information. A list of our current group companies is available here, and a list of our current service providers and partners is available here. We also facilitate external payment providers, which is detailed further below.
To any competent law enforcement authority, regulatory agency, government body, court, or other third party where we believe disclosure is necessary (i) as a matter of applicable law or regulation, (ii) to exercise, establish, or defend our legal rights, or (iii) to protect your vital interests or those of any other person.
Disclosure of Personal Information to Other Countries
Your personal information may be transferred and processed in countries other than the country in which you reside. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those of your country (and, in some cases, may not be as protective).
Specifically, Community Law Group may transfer personal information to the United States and other countries where we do business. Community Law Group may also subcontract certain activities and share your personal information with third parties located outside the United States (where our headquarters are based).
The countries where these organizations are located will vary, but in the course of our business operations, we generally disclose personal information to organizations located in Colombia and the United States. Such transfers are made to provide the services of Community Law Group and carry out the activities specified in this privacy notice.
However, we have taken appropriate security measures to ensure that your personal information remains protected in accordance with this privacy notice and applicable data protection laws. These include entering into data transfer agreements between companies in our group, which can be provided upon request. We have implemented similar safeguards with our external service providers and partners, and further details can be provided upon request. No transfer of your personal information to an organization or another country will be made unless we believe there are adequate controls, including the security of your data and other personal information. For more details, please refer to the section “How We Protect Your Personal Information.”
How We Use Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies (collectively, “cookies”) to collect and use personal information about you. For more information about the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control cookies, please refer to our cookie notice.
How Long We Retain Your Personal Information
We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this privacy notice and, in each case, in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements regarding permitted or required retention periods and relevant limitation periods for legal actions.
How We Protect Your Personal Information
We have implemented appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used, accessed without authorization, altered, or disclosed.
In addition, we limit access to your personal information to employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to access it. They will only process your personal information in accordance with our instructions and are subject to a confidentiality obligation.
While we strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Therefore, we have implemented procedures to address any suspected personal information breaches and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach when we are legally required to do so.
Your Rights in Relation to Personal Information
You have the following data protection rights:
If you wish to access, correct, or update your personal information, you can do so at any time by completing our Data Request Form.
Depending on the country you reside in and the applicable laws, you may also have additional data protection rights. If you live in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, these rights include:
Requesting the deletion of your personal information. You can do this at any time by completing our Data Request Form.
Objecting to the processing of your personal information, requesting that we restrict the processing of your personal information, or requesting the portability of your personal information. Again, you can exercise these rights by completing our Data Request Form.
Opting out of marketing communications we send you at any time. You can exercise this right by clicking the “unsubscribe” or “opt-out” link in marketing emails we send or by completing our Data Request Form.
If we have collected and processed your personal information with your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted before your withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal information based on legal grounds other than consent.
The right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority regarding our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority.
We respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

We may update our privacy notice from time to time in response to legal, technical, or business changes.
