Your Privacy Rights
Effective Date: June 14, 2025
This Privacy Policy describes the types of information gathered by LexFund, Inc. ("LexFund", "us", or "we") in the process of providing https://lexfund.com/ and https://www.lexfund.com (the "Sites"), and the data, services, information, tools, functionality, updates and similar materials (collectively, the "Service"), how we use the information, with whom the information may be shared, what choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of information, and our efforts to protect the information you provide to us through the Service.
By using the Service, you hereby consent to allow us to process information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Please also refer to our Terms of Service, available at https://lexfund.com/tos, which are incorporated as if fully recited herein. Terms defined in the Terms of Service that are not defined herein shall have the same definition as in the Terms of Service.
This policy is subject to change. If our information retention or usage practices change, we will let you know by posting the Privacy Policy changes on the Service and/or otherwise making you aware of the changes. Your continued use of the Service following our notice of changes to this Privacy Policy (or other form of legal acceptance) means you accept such changes. Please refer to the "Effective Date" above to see when this Policy was last updated.
Territoriality
Regardless of where our servers are located, your personal data may be processed by us in the United States, where data protection and privacy regulations may or may not be to the same level of protection as in other parts of the world. BY VISITING THE SITES AND USING THE SERVICE, YOU UNEQUIVOCALLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION AND PROCESSING IN THE UNITED STATES OF ANY INFORMATION COLLECTED OR OBTAINED BY US THROUGH VOLUNTARY SUBMISSIONS, AND, TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, THAT U.S. LAW GOVERNS ANY SUCH COLLECTION AND PROCESSING.
1. Who Collects Your Information On Our Service?
We do. We collect personally identifiable information ("PII") from you on the Service, and we are responsible for protection of your information.
2. What Information Do We Collect?
A. Personal Information. We collect certain personal information about you, which may be supplied when you register for the Service, when you create or update an account, when you use the Service, when you request services, and otherwise when you submit such information. The types of personal information we collect and save include:
Name, email address, phone number, some employment information (such as employer name and title), and at the user's option, some education information; and
Technical information collected in our logs, such information may include standard web log entries, IP address, browser history, first-party session cookies, web beacons, page URL, and timestamp.
You may also provide us with information when you interact with us through email, submit a review or a post, or through other use of the Service. We may retain such information in order to provide you with services, and you agree that we may share this information as needed to provide the Service.
The Service may access the internet or use your mobile data plan in order to use certain features of the Service and send us a notification when you have read one of our emails.
B. Non-personal Information. Non-personal information is non-personally identifiable or anonymous information about you, including but not limited to browser information (such as the browser used, operating system, and preferred language), the pages accessed most frequently, how pages and features are used, time spent on a page, and similar non-personal data.
Automatically tracking Internet Protocol (IP) addresses is one method of automatically collecting information about your activities online and information volunteered by you. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your device whenever you surf the internet. Further, the Service may utilize web beacons, pixel tags, embedded links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools.
If non-personal information is paired to any of your PII, we will treat the non-personal information as if it were also PII.
Part of the purpose of the Service is to share materials you make available. Anything you publicly post will not be considered personal information.
C. Aggregate Information. We may also collect anonymous, non-identifying and aggregate information, the date and time of any request you make, your language preference, pages you visit, the referring website, the website you go to immediately after visiting our Sites, and the domain name of your Internet service provider.
D. Payment Information. We may also indirectly collect certain financial information about Funders or Attorneys. The Funding Amount(s), and our Fees, can be paid via ACH or wire transfer, directly to the Attorney and to us, as applicable, and, to the extent available, on the Service. If our Fee is paid directly to us using ACH or wire transfer, we may receive financial information in connection with such payment, such as the name and account number (or a wire reference number) of the party paying us (either the Funder or Attorney, as applicable), and the name of their bank. On the other hand, if our Fee is paid on our Service, while it may appear that we are collecting personal financial information, but it is actually collected and processed through our third-party payment processor ("Payment Processor") and we do not see or have access to such information. Our Payment Processor may collect information such as banking information from you through use of the Service.
3. Why Is My Information Being Collected?
We need to collect your personal information so that we can respond to your requests for information or to be added to our email lists, serve you advertisements, to enforce our Terms of Service, and otherwise provide the Service. Our Payment Processor collects your payment information (if you are a paying customer) to facilitate billing. We collect aggregate information to help us better design the Service. We also collect log information for monitoring purposes to help us to diagnose problems with our servers, administer the Service, calculate usage levels, and otherwise provide services to you.
4. How Do We Use the Information We Collect?
A. We use the personal information you provide for the purposes for which you have submitted it, including:
Internal Uses. We may use your PII to respond to your inquiries, to fulfill your requests for information, track usage trends, conduct experiments, develop and improve the Service and other offerings, and perform research and analytics.
Creating and Maintaining Your Account. We use your PII to create and maintain an account for you to allow you to purchase and use the Service.
Paying For the Service. If our Fee is paid directly via ACH or wire transfer, we will only use the related financial information (of either the Funder or Attorney) we receive in connection with processing the payment, and any necessary accounting practices related to the payment. Our Payment Processor only uses your PII to process your payment for the Service.
Identity Verification. We may use your PII, such as your financial information and/or your phone number to help verify your identity, in order to keep your account secure.
Communicating With You About Our Service. We may use your PII to send you information about new services and other items that may be of interest to you.
Sending Administrative and Promotional Emails. We may use your PII to send you emails to: (a) confirm your account information and your other PII; (b) process your transactions to purchase our Service; (c) provide you with information regarding the Service; (d) inform you of changes to this Privacy Policy, our Terms of Service, or our other terms, conditions, or policies; or (e) provide you with information on our other services and products, or promotions related to the Service or our other services and products.
B. We may use anonymous information that we collect to improve the design and content of our Service, and to enable us to personalize your internet experience. We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze how our Sites are used, as well as to offer you programs or services. We may use any anonymous, aggregate information, which may include or be based on your information, without restriction.
5. Do We Share Your Personal Information?
We will not share your personal information except: (a) for the purposes for which you provided it; (b) with your consent; (c) as may be required by law or as we think necessary to protect our organization or others from injury (e.g., in response to a court order or subpoena, in response to a law enforcement agency request, or when we believe that someone is causing, or is about to cause, injury to or interference with the rights or property of another); or (d) with persons or organizations with whom we contract to carry out internal operations or business activities, subject to appropriate obligations of confidentiality.
We may also share aggregate information with others, including affiliated and non-affiliated organizations.
Finally, we may transfer your Account information, PII, and information relating to Active Cases to a third party, or an actual or potential successor-in-interest, in relation to, or in the event of, an actual or potential merger, acquisition, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, reorganization, bankruptcy, or other change of control (each, a "Change of Control"). We will provide you thirty (30) days' prior notice of such a transfer pursuant to a Change of Control, and allow you the opportunity to opt-out of your Account information, PII, and/or Active Case information from being transferred in connection with such transaction. Each Attorney and Funder shall have the ability to opt-out to their Account information and PII being transferred pursuant to the Change of Control. However, only Attorneys will receive the opt-out with respect to the transfer of Active Case information, which may include some information about the relevant Funder(s) for each such Case. After receiving a notice of Change of Control, Funders should contact the relevant Attorney for each Active Case with which Funder is associated and request that the Attorney opt out of transferring the Active Case information. After such disclosure or transfer, the third party or successor in interest may use the information in accordance with applicable law. Information relating to Inactive Cases will not be transferred pursuant to a Change of Control even if the relevant Attorneys/Funders do not exercise their opt-out abilities described in this Section.
6. How Can You Access And Control Your Information?
After becoming a user of the Service, you may revise or edit your information through your Account, or by sending us an email to Privacy@LexFund.com. For instructions on how you can further access your personal information that we have collected, or how to correct errors in such information, please send an e-mail to Privacy@LexFund.com. If you would like to opt out of receiving promotional emails from us, please email us at Privacy@LexFund.com with "Opt Out" in the subject line. You may also opt-out of promotional emails via the unsubscribe link in any such promotional email. To protect your privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to help verify your identity before granting access, making corrections, or removing your information.
7. How Do We Store and Protect Your Information?
A. After receiving your personal information, we will store it on our servers for future use. We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect including, but not limited to, strong encryption. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or data storage solution can ever be completely secure. As a result, although we take industry-standard steps to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or receive from us or that we store on our or our service providers' systems.
B. If you are visiting the Sites from outside of the USA, you understand that your connection may pass through and to servers located in the USA, and the information you provide may be securely stored in our servers and internal systems located within the USA.
C. We retain and store your PII until you request us to remove it from our servers, unless applicable regulations require that we store it longer. We store our logs and other technical records indefinitely.
8. How Do We Use Cookies And Other Network Technologies?
A. To enhance your online experience with us, our web pages may presently or in the future use first-party cookies. Cookies are text files that our web server may place on your computer or mobile device to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address or other PII unless you choose to provide this information to us. Once you choose to provide PII, however, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie. Although it may be possible to turn off the collection of cookies through your device or browser, certain features of the Service may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
B. LexFund or its service providers may also use "pixel tags," "web beacons," "clear GIFs" or similar means (collectively, "Pixel Tags") in connection with some of pages of our Sites and HTML-formatted email messages for purposes of, among other things, compiling aggregate statistics about website usage and response rates. A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single pixel (1x1), that is ordinarily not visible to website visitors and may be associated with cookies on visitors' computers or mobile devices. Pixel Tags allow us and our service providers to count users who have visited certain pages of our Sites, to deliver customized services, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted email messages, Pixel Tags can inform the sender of the email whether and when the email has been opened.
C. As you use the internet, you leave a trail of electronic information at each website you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as "clickstream data", can be collected and stored by a website's server. Clickstream data can reveal the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to our Sites. We may use clickstream data as a form of non-personally identifiable information to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our Sites, how visitors navigate through the Sites, and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors. We will only use this information to improve our Sites and the Service.
D. Do Not Track. At present, the Sites do not specifically respond to browser do-not-track signals.
9. Collection of Information by Others
Our Terms of Service document identifies certain third-party websites to which we may provide links, and that you may click on our Sites or in our Service. This Privacy Policy is only applicable to our Service. Please check the privacy policies of these other websites to learn how they collect, use, store and share information that you may submit to them or that they collect.
10. Children and Young People's Information
We do not knowingly collect any information from any minors, and we comply with all applicable laws, including, but not limited to, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"), and associated Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") rules for collecting personal information from minors. Please see the FTC's website ( www.ftc.gov) for more information. If you have concerns about our Sites, wish to find out if your child has accessed our Service, or wish to remove your child's personal information from our servers, please contact us at Privacy@LexFund.com. Our Sites will not knowingly accept personal information from anyone under 13 years old in violation of applicable laws, without consent of a parent or guardian. In the event that we discover that a child under the age of 13 has provided PII to us, we will make efforts to delete the child's information in accordance with COPPA. If you believe that your child under 13 has gained access to our Sites without your permission, please contact us at Privacy@LexFund.com.
11. California Privacy Rights
California's Shine the Light law allows California residents to request information regarding our disclosures to third parties in the prior calendar year, if any, of their personally identifiable information. To make such a request, please contact us at Privacy@LexFund.com with "Request for Privacy Information" in the subject line. Please include enough detail for us to locate your file; at a minimum, your name, email, and username, if any. We will attempt to provide you with the requested information within thirty (30) days of receipt. We reserve our right not to respond to requests sent more than once in a calendar year, or requests submitted to an address other than the one posted in this notice. Please note that this law does not cover all information sharing. Our disclosure only includes information covered by the law.
12. Nevada Privacy Rights
If you are a Nevada resident, you have to the right to opt-out of the "sale" of your "covered information" as such terms are defined in Chapter 603A of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("Nevada Privacy Law" or "NPL"). For the avoidance of doubt, we do not "sell" your "covered information". Nonetheless, Nevada residents may submit a request to prohibit such sales by contacting us at Privacy@LexFund.com. Additional information on the categories of personal information collected and categories of personal information shared with third parties can be found in this Privacy Policy.
