RIO LAW GROUP INC. — PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: June 9, 2025

ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. This website is an advertisement and communication for legal services. Rio Law Group Inc. is a law firm licensed in the State of California, with a bona fide office located in Los Angeles, California. The attorney responsible for this communication is Sam Mollaei, Esq. Nothing on this website is a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of any legal matter. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. This website does not create an attorney-client relationship; no attorney-client relationship is formed until a law firm agrees in writing to represent you.

1. Who We Are and Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Rio Law Group Inc. (“Rio,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit riolawgroup.com (the “Website”), submit information through any form, or communicate with us by phone, text, or email. By using the Website or submitting your information, you agree to this Privacy Policy and to our Terms of Service.

Rio is a California law firm. We evaluate potential legal claims and, where appropriate, refer matters to independent law firms with which we have written co-counsel or referral agreements. Section 6 below names those firms.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of information: (a) Identifiers and contact information — your name, phone number, email address, and ZIP code or location; (b) Case and intake information — information you provide about your potential legal matter, which may include sensitive personal information such as information about your health, alleged workplace conduct, or other circumstances of your claim; (c) Communications — the content of your calls, text messages, emails, chat messages, and form submissions, and recordings or transcripts of calls where permitted by law; (d) Technical and usage information — IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed, and referring URLs, collected through cookies and similar technologies; and (e) Advertising information — information about how you interacted with our advertisements, including through third-party advertising and analytics tools such as the Meta (Facebook) pixel and Google analytics and advertising tags.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to: evaluate whether you may have a legal claim; determine which participating law firm (if any) is appropriate for your matter; contact you about your inquiry and potential representation; transmit your information to a participating law firm for case evaluation and potential representation; respond to your questions; comply with legal and ethical obligations; operate, secure, and improve the Website; and measure and improve our advertising. We do not use sensitive personal information for purposes other than those permitted under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended (the “CCPA/CPRA”).

4. Communications Consent (TCPA)

By submitting your phone number through any form on the Website or otherwise providing it to us, you provide your prior express written consent for Rio Law Group Inc., its agents, and the participating law firms identified in Section 6 to contact you at that number — including by automatic telephone dialing system, artificial or prerecorded voice, and SMS/text message — regarding your inquiry and potential legal representation, even if the number is on a state or federal Do-Not-Call list. Consent is not a condition of any purchase or of receiving legal services. Message and data rates may apply, and message frequency may vary. You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP, and reply HELP for help. You may also ask us to stop contacting you by emailing the address in Section 13. Your consent and these communications are governed by the binding arbitration agreement, class-action waiver, and related provisions set forth in our Terms of Service, which are incorporated here by reference.

5. How We Disclose Your Information

We disclose your personal information to: (a) the participating law firms identified in Section 6, for the purpose of evaluating and potentially handling your matter; (b) service providers that support our operations (for example, hosting, customer-relationship-management, telephony, e-signature, and analytics providers), who are contractually limited to using the information only to provide services to us; and (c) others as required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer. We do not sell your personal information for money. Certain sharing of identifiers and online activity with advertising and analytics partners (for example, through cookies and the Meta pixel) may be considered “sharing” or a “sale” under the CCPA/CPRA; you may opt out as described in Section 9.
