Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 29, 2026

Mastrangelo & Saul ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website mastrangeloandsaul.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our Site or contact us through it. Please read this policy carefully. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Who This Policy Covers

This policy applies to visitors and users of our website, including parents and guardians who contact us on behalf of their children. Our Site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under the age of 13. If you are submitting information about your child as part of a legal inquiry, that information is covered by this policy and handled with strict confidentiality.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly:

When you fill out our contact form, book a consultation, or sign up for our newsletter, you may provide:

  • Your name, email address, and phone number

  • Information about how you heard about us

  • A description of your legal matter

  • Documents you choose to upload, which may include your child's IEP, educational evaluations, school records, or other sensitive materials

Information collected automatically:

When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit. This information is collected through cookies and similar technologies and is used to understand how visitors use our Site.

3. Sensitive Information

Because we are a special education law firm, the information you share with us may include sensitive details about your child's disability, educational records, psychological or neuropsychological evaluations, and legal matters. We treat this information with the highest level of care and discretion.

Once an attorney-client relationship is established, all communications and information you share are protected by attorney-client privilege and our professional obligations of confidentiality under the New York Rules of Professional Conduct.

Submitting a contact form or scheduling a consultation does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship. However, we treat all information shared with us in confidence and do not disclose it to third parties except as described in this policy.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your inquiry and evaluate whether we can assist with your matter

  • Schedule and conduct consultations

  • Send you our newsletter or legal resources if you have subscribed

  • Improve the functionality and content of our Site

  • Comply with our legal and professional obligations

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

5. Third-Party Service Providers

We use a limited number of third-party tools to operate our Site and communicate with clients. These providers may process your information on our behalf:

  • Flodesk: We use Flodesk to manage our email newsletter. If you subscribe, your email address is stored with Flodesk. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any newsletter email.

  • Calendly: We use Calendly to allow you to schedule consultations online. When you book through Calendly, their privacy policy governs the information you provide during that process.

  • Clio: We use Clio as our client portal for document sharing, secure messaging, and billing. Client information stored in Clio is subject to Clio's privacy and security practices, which are designed for legal professionals.

We select service providers who maintain appropriate security standards. We do not authorize these providers to use your information for any purpose other than providing services to us.

6. Cookies

Our Site may use cookies, which are small data files stored on your device, to improve your experience and understand how our Site is used. You can configure your browser to refuse cookies, though some features of the Site may not function properly if you do.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Site is directed at adults, specifically parents and guardians seeking legal assistance on behalf of their children. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through our Site. Information about children that parents voluntarily share with us as part of a legal inquiry (such as IEPs or evaluation reports) is handled with strict confidentiality and used only to evaluate or provide legal representation.

If you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child without appropriate consent, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

8. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us from unauthorized access, disclosure, or loss. This includes using secure transmission protocols for our website and working with service providers who maintain appropriate security practices. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If you are sharing highly sensitive documents, we encourage you to use our secure Clio client portal rather than email.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, to comply with our legal and professional obligations, or as required by applicable law. Attorney files and client communications are retained in accordance with New York State bar requirements.

10. Your Rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your information. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information below. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

New York residents may also have rights under the New York SHIELD Act and other applicable state privacy laws.

11. Links to Third-Party Sites

Our Site may contain links to external websites, including the Clio client portal and other resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies before submitting personal information.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
