New York Registered Agent LLC Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 2024

At New York Registered Agent LLC, your privacy is our priority. Our company’s emphasis on user privacy and customer service is what separates us from the competition. This document contains many legal necessities, yet there are some things we want to highlight about our company and this website:

  • We do not, and will not, sell your information to third parties.
  • We strive to collect only the minimum amount of information about you necessary to provide excellent service and user experiences.
  • If you hire us for any service, we will try to list our address wherever possible, so you don’t have to list your address on public documents.
  • While there are always risks with transmitting any data via the Internet, we want you to know our staff is continuously working on website and client account security to protect any information shared with us.
  • We try extremely hard to provide all our services internally so we can avoid sharing your information with third parties. But the use of services like credit card processors is currently unavoidable. However, we do not, and will not, allow the information shared with these parties (you’ll find a description below) about you to be used by them to independently market to you.

We know any person who uses this website or our services is inherently trusting New York Registered Agent LLC with their data. While we as a company are proud of our privacy policy and the attention given to protecting user data, we also want to honor the trust our users place in us with complete transparency.

Privacy Policy Agreement

This Privacy Policy describes how New York Registered Agent LLC and its affiliates (collectively “New York Registered Agent”, “we” and “us”) collect, use and disclose personal information we collect from you and about you. It applies to all of the interactions we may have with you including your use of our website, telephone calls, email exchanges, etc. Because this Privacy Policy is part of our Terms of Service, it governs your use of our services and products (“Services”) and, by using our Services, you accept the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Our security is built to protect data from unauthorized access, theft, or loss while still prioritizing availability to ensure that systems and data are accessible when needed through the processing of data accurately and completely. We also place an emphasis on confidentiality by limiting access to data based on authorized roles allowing us to protect client privacy through the safeguarding of individuals’ personal information.

Information for California, Texas, and European Residents

Your Data Protection Rights

The State of California passed the California Consumer Protection Act of 2018 (CCPA) followed by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA).

The State of Texas passed the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) in 2023.

The CCPA, CPRA and TDPSA grant consumers rights concerning digital privacy and personal data, including the right to review any personal information collected by businesses, opt out of personal data sales, and request that a business delete personal information. Additionally, consumers have the right to receive equal treatment and pricing when exercising these rights. Certain exemptions may apply which will decrease or eliminate our obligations under the CCPA, CPRA and TDPSA.

Likewise, the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) allows individual residents of the European Union (“EU”) to submit a verifiable request for us to provide them with certain information including: i) specific pieces and categories of personal information that we have collected about them; ii) the categories of sources for that information; iii) the legitimate interest for collecting their information; and iv) the categories of third parties with which their information is shared.

European residents also have the right to object to the collection or processing of their information or to submit a request for deletion of their information under certain circumstances. These rights, however, are not absolute, and we may decline to stop collection/processing or decline to delete information when retention is allowed by law, for example, when we have an on-going business relationship with the person, we have a continued need to use the information, or we need to retain the information in order to comply with a legal obligation.

We do not, and will not, sell or share your information to third-parties (as defined in the CPRA and TDPSA).

WE DO NOT share your personal information that is intended to or result in targeted advertising.

We already limit the use of any Sensitive Personal Information we gather from you to that which is necessary to perform the services and/or goods you hired us to perform but you have the right to request us to “Limit the use of Sensitive Personal Information.” Sensitive personal information includes: a social security number, account log in information, financial information, geo-location, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, health information, bio-metrics, and the contents of communications to us, unless we were the intended recipient of the communication. This is not an absolute right, and we may decline to limit the use of Sensitive Personal Information under a qualifying exemption.

You have the right to request copies of your personal data.

You have the right to request that any information you believe is incomplete or inaccurate to be corrected.

Non-Discrimination

If you exercise your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA), California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA), Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) or the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we will not provide discriminatory treatment to you.

In Texas, you have the right to appeal our denial of a request. If we reject your appeal, you may contact the Attorney General at Consumer Protection | Office of the Attorney General.

If you would like to submit a request about your data, obtain additional information, or appeal our denial of a request, you may do so by emailing [email protected] or by calling our toll free number at 1-888-704-7214.

After you submit the request, you will be asked to verify your email address and you may also be asked to provide additional information in order to verify your identity. We will attempt to verify your identity by asking for information that matches the information that we have previously collected about you. Where this is not possible, we may request that you submit additional documentation for verification. Please note that, in accordance with the CCPA, CPRA and or TDPSA we will not be able to satisfy your request until we have verified your identity.

You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. In order to designate an authorized agent to make a request, you must provide us with your written permission for the agent to make the request on your behalf, or provide us with a signed power of attorney. We will also need to verify valid government issued identification for both you and the agent.

Notice to Non U.S. Users

If you are located outside of the United States of America, you should be aware that your personal information will be transferred to the United States of America, the laws of which may differ from the laws of your country. If you are located in a country outside of the United States of America and voluntarily submit personal information to us, you thereby consent to the general use of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy and to the transfer of that information to, and/or storage or processing of that information in, the United States of America and you understand that your information may be available to government authorities under lawful orders and laws applicable there. By requesting our Services, you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have different data protection rules than those of your country.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

At a minimum, we will retain your information for as long as needed to provide you Services, and as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We may maintain some or all of this information in our archives even after it has been removed from the site.
