How We Use Data

We process personal data to respond to inquiries, schedule and manage appointments, provide notary-related services, verify and document requests where appropriate, maintain business records, operate and secure the website, detect misuse or fraud, comply with legal and professional obligations, and improve the reliability of our services. We do not use personal data for purposes that are incompatible with the reason it was collected.

We use personal data only for operational, legal, and service-related purposes.

Service Providers

We may share personal data with trusted service providers that help us operate the website, host data, secure systems, manage communications, process payments if applicable, or support analytics and maintenance. These parties may act on our instructions or as independent controllers depending on the service. We seek to limit disclosures to what is necessary for the relevant function.

Service providers receive only the information needed to perform contracted functions.

Legal Disclosure

We may disclose personal data when required to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests from public authorities, protect our rights, investigate security or fraud issues, or support the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims. In a notary setting, disclosure may also occur where necessary to complete a requested service or to meet recordkeeping duties.

Disclosure may be required to comply with law, court orders, or lawful requests.
