1. About LawyerGalaxy

LawyerGalaxy is an independent technology platform and legal marketplace designed to help individuals and businesses find, connect with, and work with independent lawyers and law firms.

LawyerGalaxy may provide technology for lawyer discovery, lawyer verification, legal matter intake, matching, proposals, communication, document exchange, matter management, translation, artificial intelligence-assisted tools, and related digital services.

LawyerGalaxy is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, legal representation, or legal services.

Legal services available through the Platform are provided independently by lawyers or law firms selected or engaged by users.

The use of LawyerGalaxy does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship between a user and LawyerGalaxy.

2. Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed in connection with:

the LawyerGalaxy website;
LawyerGalaxy user accounts;
client accounts;
lawyer and law firm accounts;
business and corporate accounts;
lawyer profiles;
legal matter requests;
lawyer matching;
proposals and engagements;
platform communications;
uploaded documents;
reviews and ratings;
payment-related services;
customer support;
security and fraud prevention;
analytics;
marketing communications; and
artificial intelligence-assisted features.

This Privacy Policy does not govern the independent processing activities of lawyers, law firms, payment providers, third-party websites, or other independent service providers where those parties act as separate data controllers.

Those parties may maintain their own privacy policies and legal obligations.

3. Data Controller

For personal data processed for the operation of the LawyerGalaxy Platform, the data controller is generally:

LawyerGalaxy Corporation
Majakovski 7
Skopje, North Macedonia
Email: [email protected]

However, lawyers and law firms using LawyerGalaxy may act as independent data controllers with respect to personal data they receive and process in connection with their professional legal services.

Depending on the particular processing activity, LawyerGalaxy may act as a controller, processor, or other legally recognized data-processing party.

5. Sensitive and Special Categories of Personal Data

other professional credentials.

We may conduct verification internally or through authorized third-party service providers.

IP address;
browser type;
device type;
operating system;
language settings;
referring pages;

9. Communications

If LawyerGalaxy provides platform-based messaging, we may process communications between users and lawyers for purposes including:

transmitting messages;
maintaining Matter history;
providing requested Platform functionality;
preventing misuse;
ensuring Platform security;
resolving technical problems; and
providing customer support.

LawyerGalaxy personnel will not routinely review private Matter communications.

Access may occur where reasonably necessary and legally permitted, including for security, fraud prevention, technical support, investigation of misuse, compliance with legal obligations, or where requested by the user.

Any internal access should be limited according to authorization and need-to-know principles.

10. Attorney-Client Confidentiality

Lawyers using LawyerGalaxy are independent professionals and may be subject to professional secrecy, attorney-client confidentiality, privilege, and other professional obligations under the laws and professional rules applicable to them.

LawyerGalaxy is not a law firm and does not itself enter into an attorney-client relationship merely because information is transmitted through the Platform.

Whether a particular communication is legally privileged or otherwise protected depends on applicable law and the circumstances of the communication.

Users should avoid submitting confidential legal information to lawyers whom they have not selected or engaged unless they understand the consequences of doing so.

11. Artificial Intelligence

LawyerGalaxy may use artificial intelligence ("AI"), machine learning, automated processing, and related technologies to improve and operate the Platform.

AI-assisted functionality may include:

analyzing a user's description of a legal need;
classifying legal Matters;
identifying relevant jurisdictions or practice areas;
recommending potentially suitable lawyers;
structuring Matter information;
summarizing documents;
summarizing communications;
extracting dates and other information from documents;
translating communications;
identifying missing information;
assisting with workflow management;
supporting fraud and security detection; and
improving the usability and performance of LawyerGalaxy.

AI functionality is intended to support Platform operations and lawyer-client collaboration.

AI-generated outputs are not legal advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for advice from a qualified lawyer.

11.1 AI and Lawyer Matching

LawyerGalaxy may use automated processing to rank or recommend lawyers based on factors including:

jurisdiction;
area of legal practice;
language;
professional experience;
availability;
response history;
user preferences;
Matter characteristics; and
other relevant criteria.

A recommendation does not guarantee that a lawyer is appropriate for every circumstance and does not guarantee any legal outcome.

Users remain free to determine whether to engage a particular lawyer.

Where required by applicable law, LawyerGalaxy will provide safeguards relating to automated decision-making.

11.2 AI Model Training

As a general policy, LawyerGalaxy does not use confidential Matter content, private client-lawyer communications, or uploaded legal documents to train publicly available general-purpose AI models.

LawyerGalaxy may use anonymized, aggregated, statistical, or otherwise lawfully processed information to improve the Platform, provided such use complies with applicable law.

If LawyerGalaxy materially changes how customer content is used for AI training, we will update this Privacy Policy and obtain consent where legally required.
