Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 15, 2026

This policy applies to sam-mangel.com, operated by White Collar Consulting, LLC, doing business as Sam Mangel Federal Prison Consulting Group. It covers both the information you give us directly and the information collected automatically when you visit the site.

Two different things, kept separate on purpose. What you tell us about your case is confidential and is never sold, shared or used for advertising. The website itself uses standard advertising and measurement tools that do pass limited identifiers to third parties. Both are described below, and you can turn the second one off at any time on Your Privacy Choices.

Information We Collect

Depending on how you use the site, we collect the following categories:

  • Identifiers. Name, email address, phone number, IP address, and cookie or device identifiers.
  • Case-related information you choose to share. Anything you tell us about your situation when you contact us or schedule a consultation.
  • Commercial information. The services you ask about and your consultation and engagement history.
  • Internet and network activity. Pages viewed, links and buttons clicked, time on page, referring site, and how you interact with our ads.
  • Approximate location. Derived from your IP address. We do not collect precise geolocation.
  • Inferences drawn from the above, used to measure which ads and pages bring people to us.

We collect this directly from you, automatically through your browser, and from the advertising platforms described below. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

How We Use Your Information

  • Respond to your inquiries and provide consulting services
  • Schedule and conduct consultations
  • Measure which advertising and which pages actually bring people to us
  • Maintain, secure and improve the website
  • Meet legal, tax and recordkeeping obligations

Client Confidentiality

Case-related information and the substance of your communications with us are treated as confidential. We do not sell that information, share it for advertising, or disclose it to third parties except where you direct us to, where a service provider needs it to perform work for us under contract, or where the law requires it. Note that consulting engagements are not covered by attorney-client privilege. If you need privileged communications, speak with your attorney.

Advertising and Analytics on This Website

We use the following on the website. Two of these pass identifiers to companies outside our control, which California law treats as sharing personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising:

  • Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing. Tells us which ads lead to contacts and allows ads to be shown to people who have visited this site. This involves sharing identifiers with Google.
  • A session and behavior analytics tool. Records how visitors move through pages so we can find what is confusing or broken. This involves sharing identifiers with the provider.
  • Privacy-focused site analytics. Counts visits and page views without cookies and without building a profile of you. This is first-party and is not shared.

We do not sell your personal information for money. We do share it in the technical sense described above, which is why the opt-out below exists.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Know what personal information we have collected about you, where it came from, why we collected it, and who we disclosed it to
  • Delete the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Opt out of the sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights. We will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lower level of service because you exercised a privacy right.

How to Exercise Your Rights

You can reach us two ways, and either one works for any request:

To opt out of advertising sharing without contacting us, use Your Privacy Choices. We also honor the Global Privacy Control signal automatically. If your browser or extension sends GPC, we treat it as an opt-out request with no further action needed from you.

We verify requests by matching the information you give us against what we already hold. For a deletion or access request we may ask you to confirm details only the real account holder would know. An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf with written permission signed by you, and we may still contact you directly to confirm.

How Long We Keep Information

  • Inquiries that did not become engagements: up to 24 months, then deleted
  • Client and case records: 7 years after the engagement ends, for professional and legal recordkeeping
  • Website analytics and advertising data: up to 26 months, on the platforms' standard retention
  • Billing and tax records: as long as tax law requires

Service Providers and Third Parties

We use third-party providers for scheduling, email, website hosting, advertising and analytics. They may only use your information to perform services for us. Each has its own privacy policy governing its own practices.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be noted on the site.
