Privacy Policy

Jia Law Group P.C. is a New York–based immigration law practice and the controller of the information described here. You can reach us about privacy at info@jiaesq.com or by mail at 88 Pine Street, 18th Floor, New York, NY 10005.

• Chat questions. The immigration questions you type into the chat, so we can answer them.
• Self-assessment inputs. The LinkedIn profile URL, field of work, résumé, and any supporting documents you submit to the free self-assessment. Uploaded files, and résumé text you paste, are stored and read by our attorneys as part of the assessment, and deleted 90 days after upload unless you get in touch with us — see section 7.
• Contact details. Your email address — and any name or phone number you choose to add — when you unlock a full assessment report, request an appointment, or ask to speak with an attorney.
• Account information. The email and password you use to create and sign in to a member account.
• Documents you upload to a member account, which we encrypt at rest.

When you use the site we record limited technical information — such as your IP address and basic request details — to keep the service available, enforce daily usage limits, and tell automated abuse apart from real visitors.

Cookies. Some are strictly necessary: they keep you signed in and help protect our forms from automated abuse, and they are set whether or not you accept anything else. Beyond those we use analytics cookies, to see which pages and answers people find useful, and advertising cookies, which let us tell when a visit followed one of our ads and measure the results of our advertising. Analytics and advertising cookies are set only if you accept them in the cookie banner. You can change or withdraw that choice at any time from the same banner, and declining changes nothing about what the site does for you.

These cookies are not used everywhere. The pages where you describe your own situation — the chat, your account, and a self-assessment report — carry no analytics or advertising cookies at all, and the address of a report is never sent to any analytics or advertising service.

• To answer your questions and produce your self-assessment result.
• To contact you about an assessment, appointment, or question you raised, and — if you become a client — to provide legal services under a separate engagement.
• To operate, secure, and improve the site, including preventing abuse and enforcing usage limits.
• To keep records the firm is required or permitted to keep.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it with service providers who process it on our behalf, only as needed to run the site:

• our automated assessment provider — reads the LinkedIn profile or resume you submit to the self-assessment and returns an automated analysis, and — when you request a consultation — receives a copy of that request (your name, the email or phone number you give, and your message) so it can be logged for a lawyer to follow up. The text you submit is sent to this provider to produce your result.
• our AI model provider (Anthropic) — processes the questions you type into the chat to generate an AI-assisted answer.
• our consent manager — shows the cookie banner and records the choice you make there, so the site can honour it on your next visit.
• Google (Analytics and Ads) — receives, if you accept analytics and advertising cookies, which pages of this site you viewed and the fact that a consultation request was sent — so we can see which answers people find useful and whether a visit followed one of our ads. It does not receive your name, your email address, your phone number, the text of your question, or the address of a self-assessment report.
• OpenAI (advertising measurement) — receives, if you accept advertising cookies, which pages of this site you viewed and the fact that you sent a consultation request or unlocked a self-assessment report, so we can measure advertising placed through OpenAI. Those two facts are reported by our server, together with your IP address, your browser's user agent and the reference of the OpenAI ad you arrived from, if any. OpenAI's measurement code, which runs in your browser on the pages that carry it, may also read an email address or phone number you type into a form on this site and send it in hashed form, so OpenAI can match your visit to its own users. It does not receive your name, the text of your question, or the address of a self-assessment report, and our server never sends it your email address or phone number in any form.
• our email provider (Resend) — delivers the email we send you — the confirmation when you request a consultation, the link to a self-assessment report, a password reset, and the welcome message for a new account. It receives the address we are sending to and the contents of that message, which for a consultation confirmation includes your name and what you wrote to us.
• Have I Been Pwned (password safety) — tells us whether a password you choose has appeared in a known data breach, so we can ask you for a different one. It receives the first five characters of a one-way hash of the password and nothing else — not the password, not your email address, and nothing that identifies you or this site.
• our hosting and bot-protection providers — serve the site, keep it available, and tell automated abuse apart from real visitors.

We may also disclose information when the law requires it, to protect our rights or someone's safety, or as part of a business transfer.

The chat and the self-assessment use automated systems, including an outside AI model. Their output can be incomplete or wrong and is clearly labeled where it appears. Because what you type is sent to these systems to generate a response, please avoid including sensitive personal details you would not want processed by a third-party model.

We keep information for as long as needed for the purpose it was collected — to answer you, to maintain your account, and to meet the firm's legal and record-keeping obligations — and then delete or de-identify it. Uploaded documents and other sensitive records are encrypted at rest.

Files you give the free self-assessment — your résumé and any supporting documents — are deleted 90 days after upload. If you get in touch with us about your assessment, they stay with your report as part of our record of your enquiry, and deleting the report deletes them. An upload that is never submitted is deleted within 24 hours.

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or ask a question about how we handle it, by emailing info@jiaesq.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under your local law; we will honor those that apply. You can close a member account at any time.

When you ask us to delete a consultation request, we remove it from our own records and ask our assessment provider to delete the copy they hold (see “Who we share it with” above). That provider does not offer self-service deletion, so we handle the request by hand — please allow a little time for it to take effect on their side.

This site is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16.

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the effective date above, and significant changes will be noted on this page.
