4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share personal information only as described below.

Text messaging: No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties, except service providers that help us deliver messages.
5. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use the Site and our videos, and measure and improve our advertising. These may include analytics services such as Google Analytics, advertising and social media tools such as those offered by Google, Meta (Facebook and Instagram), and YouTube, and call-tracking and chat tools.
These providers may collect information about your activity on the Site and across other websites over time. You can limit this by:
- changing your browser settings to block or delete cookies;
- using the Google Analytics opt-out add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout;
- adjusting your ad preferences at https://adssettings.google.com and in your Meta account settings; and
- visiting https://optout.aboutads.info and https://optout.networkadvertising.org.
Blocking cookies may affect how the Site works. Our Site does not currently respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals.
6. Phone Calls and Text Messages
Some calls with our office may be recorded for quality, training, and record-keeping purposes. Text messages are governed by the Text Messaging Program section of our Terms of Use. You can opt out of texts at any time by replying STOP or by any other reasonable means.
7. Health Information
Because we represent people in disability, personal injury, and workers’ compensation claims, we routinely receive medical information. Chad Brown Law is not a health care provider or health plan, and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) generally does not govern our handling of your information. We nonetheless treat medical information as confidential and use it only to evaluate and pursue your claim or matter.
8. Children’s Information
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from them. We receive information about minors only from a parent, guardian, or authorized representative, and we use it only to evaluate or pursue a claim on the child’s behalf. If you believe a child has submitted information to us directly, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information, including access controls and a secure client portal. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of information you send us. Please do not send sensitive information by unencrypted email or text; use the client portal instead.
10. Data Retention
We keep personal information as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy. Client files are retained as required by our professional obligations and applicable law, which may be longer than the representation itself. Information from inquiries that do not become representation is kept only as long as reasonably necessary.
11. Your Choices and Requests
You may ask us to:
- tell you what personal information we hold about you;
- correct inaccurate information;
- delete your information; or
- stop sending you marketing communications.
To make a request, email info@chadbrownlaw.com or call (336) 546-5066. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Some requests may be limited by our legal, ethical, or record-retention obligations, such as our duty to maintain client files. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in any message.
12. Users Outside the United States
The Site is operated in the United States and intended for users in the United States. Information you provide is stored and processed in the United States.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted, as shown by the “Last Updated” date.
