Texas Attorney Privacy Policy

Effective as of March 6, 2026

This Privacy Policy supplements our general Attorney Privacy Policy with Texas-specific requirements. It describes how FlowLegal Partners LLC (“FlowLegalPartners,” “we,” “us” or “our”) processes information about Texas attorneys who use the FlowCounsel platform.

FlowLegalPartners operates the FlowCounsel marketing platform for law firms that includes firm marketing pages, managed Google Ads campaigns, Google LSA and GBP integrations, LeadFlow pay-per-lead services, and performance analytics. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice.

This policy is designed to comply with the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (effective July 1, 2024).

Managed advertising data

When you enable managed Google Ads campaigns through the FlowCounsel platform, we collect, process, and store additional data related to your advertising activities. This section describes the specific advertising data we handle.

Google Ads account data

FlowLegalPartners operates a Google Ads manager account (MCC) under which your campaigns run. We process and store:

  • Campaign IDs, asset group IDs, and configuration settings
  • Ad copy generated on your behalf (headlines, descriptions, long headlines)
  • Budget allocations and daily spend data
  • Geographic targeting settings
  • Negative keyword themes and audience signals

Campaign performance data

  • Impressions, clicks, click-through rates (CTR), and cost-per-click (CPC)
  • Conversion events (form submissions, phone clicks) and cost-per-lead (CPL)
  • Search term reports and keyword performance
  • Geographic and device performance breakdowns
  • Ad strength scores and asset performance ratings

Ad compliance archive

For regulatory compliance with Texas and applicable state attorney advertising record-keeping requirements, we maintain an immutable archive of all advertising content generated or published on your behalf. This archive includes:

  • All ad copy with content hashes for integrity verification
  • Landing page text snapshots
  • Campaign configuration at time of publication
  • Compliance check results (banned word scans, disclaimer verification, character limit validation)
  • Template versions used to generate content
  • Timestamps for generation, first served, last served, and retirement

Archive records are retained for 4 years after the advertising content stops serving, in compliance with the longest applicable state record-keeping requirement (TX DBPA § 17.63). This retention period applies regardless of account status or termination.

Conversion tracking and analytics

We use Google Ads conversion tracking and Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to measure campaign performance. When a potential client clicks your ad and visits your firm marketing page, we track:

  • Click-to-page visit attribution (via Google Click ID / GCLID)
  • Form submission events (without sharing case details with Google)
  • Phone click events on firm marketing pages
  • Page engagement metrics (time on page, scroll depth)

This data is used to optimize your campaigns, calculate ROI metrics displayed in your dashboard, and generate performance reports. We do not share the substance of client legal matters with Google or any advertising platform.

Publicly available information

Directory listings from public records. FlowLegalPartners maintains a directory of attorneys sourced from publicly available records, including state bar association directories, court records, and other public legal databases.

  • Attorney name
  • Firm name
  • Practice area(s)
  • State(s) of bar admission
  • City and state of practice

No claim of affiliation. The presence of an attorney in our directory does not imply any business relationship, endorsement, or affiliation with FlowLegalPartners. Unclaimed listings are clearly distinguished from those of participating attorneys.

No fabricated information. We do not attribute ratings, reviews, badges, certifications, or other performance metrics to attorneys who have not provided such information through our platform. Information displayed for unclaimed listings is limited to publicly available data as described above.

Opt-out and removal. Any attorney may request removal of their unclaimed listing from our directory at any time by contacting us at privacy@flowlegalpartners.com.

We obtain publicly available attorney information from state bar associations, state and federal court records, government legal databases, and other publicly accessible legal directories. We may also obtain attorney contact information from third-party data providers for business development purposes. Purchased contact information is used solely for direct outreach and is never displayed publicly in our directory.

Data security
