PRIVACY POLICY

Effective date: September 21, 2026

Kirker Law in association with Koch Solutions Family Law (“we,” “us,” “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This policy explains what we collect, why, and how we handle it. As an Alberta law firm, we handle personal information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Act (Alberta), the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) where it applies, and our professional obligations as lawyers.

Information we collect.

We collect personal information you choose to give us, and some limited information automatically when you use our website. This may include your name, email address, and phone number; information you share when you book or request a consultation or complete an intake form; the contents of messages you send us; and website usage information collected through cookies and analytics, such as pages visited and general location.

How we collect it.

We collect information directly from you, through our contact forms, booking system, intake forms, email, and phone; and automatically, through our website host and analytics tools when you browse the site.

Why we collect and use it.

We use your personal information to respond to your enquiries, schedule and prepare for consultations, provide legal services, run and improve our website, and meet our legal and professional obligations. We do not use your information for unrelated purposes without your consent.

Confidentiality and privilege.

Beyond this policy, information you share with us as a client is also protected by solicitor-client privilege and by our professional duty of confidentiality. Please do not send us confidential or sensitive details through the website, a web form, or unencrypted email until we have formally agreed to act for you. Information sent before then may not be protected by solicitor-client privilege.

When we share information.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as needed to provide our services or as required by law: with trusted service providers who help us operate, such as our website host and booking system, who are expected to protect your information; and where you have consented, or where we are required or permitted by law or our professional obligations. [Confirm whether any service provider stores or processes personal information outside Canada, which PIPA may require you to disclose.]

Cookies and analytics.

Our website uses cookies and similar tools to help the site function and to understand how visitors use it. You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Turning them off may affect how the site works.

How we protect your information.

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. No website or system is perfectly secure, but we work to keep your information safe.

How long we keep it.

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here, or as required by law and our professional obligations, and then dispose of it securely.

Your rights.

Under Alberta privacy law, you may request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or withdraw your consent, subject to legal and professional limits. To make a request, contact us using the details below.
