Privacy policy
What CaseMagic holds about you, why it holds it, and how to make it stop.
What is collected
- Account: your email address and a hash of your password. Never the password itself.
- Cases you connect: the case number, the court, and the public docket data CaseMagic reads for it.
- CaseMail: messages sent to a case address, their headers, their senders and recipients, their timestamps and their attachments.
- Billing: your subscription status and plan. Card details are handled by Stripe and never reach CaseMagic.
- Usage: which pages were viewed, which lookups were run, and which assistant a request came from, with a one-way hash of your IP address rather than the address itself.
What is not done with it
- Your case data is not sold, and is not shared with advertisers.
- Your account, the cases you connect, your CaseMail and your Case Passports are private. They are never published and never indexed by search engines.
- They are never shown to another CaseMagic account.
- They are not handed to anyone for model training.
Public court records on CaseMagic
CaseMagic also publishes pages built from public federal court dockets: the case name, the parties, the court and the docket entries the court publishes. These pages exist whether or not anyone in the case uses CaseMagic, and they are separate from your account. Watching a case never adds anything from your account to its public page.
If you are a person named as a party, you can ask us to show your name as initials and to tell search engines not to index the page, using the privacy request form. No ID is needed. A request from the person named, or their lawyer, is applied within one business day and usually at once, and it is permanent: new activity in the case does not bring the name back.
We remove a page entirely when the case or a filing is sealed, when a party is a minor, or when a court order or a safety concern requires it. Names of companies and other organisations are not anonymized. Copies held by the court, PACER and other websites are not ours to change.
AI assistants
When you connect an assistant, you approve a named set of permissions on a CaseMagic consent screen, and that connection can read only the cases on your account. Disconnecting it ends the access immediately.
What the assistant's own provider does with what it receives is governed by that provider's terms, not ours. That is worth reading before connecting anything to anything.
Who else processes it
- The hosting provider that runs the application.
- The database provider that stores it.
- Stripe, for payments.
- The email provider that delivers and receives CaseMail.
- CourtListener, which is where public docket data is read from.
Each holds only what it needs to do its part.
How long
Account and case data are kept while the account exists. Ask us to delete it and it is deleted, other than records we are required to keep for tax and payment purposes. Public court records are not ours to delete.
