Data Security Policy

Overview of our data protection measures, privacy practices, and security protocols for legal professionals

At Empath Legal, we understand that legal professionals handle sensitive and confidential information. Our data security practices are designed to protect your clients and your practice.

Data Ownership

You own your data. Period. We never claim any ownership rights to the data you upload or generate through our platform. Your case files, juror information, and analysis results belong entirely to you and your clients.

No AI Training

We do not use your data to train AI models. The analysis itself runs on AI models from outside providers, reached through their standard commercial interfaces, so what those providers do with what we send them is governed by their own terms rather than by ours.

Data Deletion

When you delete something, we remove it from the systems that run the product. We also back up our databases nightly, and those backups rotate out on a rolling schedule, so deleted material can remain in a backup until it rotates out. We would rather tell you that plainly than promise an erasure we cannot carry out end to end.

No Data Selling

We do not sell or rent your data, and we do not monetize your information in any way. Delivering the service does mean passing information to companies we contract with — research and public-records providers, cloud hosting, the providers who run the AI models behind our analysis, and our payment and email providers. They receive it to provide their part of the service to us.

No Content Monitoring

Nobody here reads your case files as a matter of course, and we do not mine their contents. Our systems process them to produce the analysis you asked for. We filter our diagnostic logs to keep case material out of them; the filter has known limits, so we also keep what those logs collect to a minimum.

Security Measures

Connections to the service are encrypted with TLS, sign-in tokens are encrypted at rest, and we apply security updates as they are released.
