French is the official language of Juge.ca. In the event of any discrepancy, ambiguity, omission, or conflict of interpretation, the French version shall prevail.
How Juge.ca collects, uses, discloses, and protects your personal information. Built around Québec's Law 25 (the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector, as modernized) and Canada's PIPEDA.
Juge.ca is operated by King Legend Inc. ("Juge.ca", "we", "us"), based in Québec, Canada. We act as the enterprise responsible for the personal information processed through the platform.
We have designated a Privacy Officer responsible for the protection of personal information and for handling access and rectification requests. Contact: contact@juge.ca.
This policy covers the juge.ca website, the Litigation OS workspace, and the connected services (document generation, evidence storage, AI copilot, and the bailiff / process-server / notary marketplace). It applies to self-represented users, legal professionals, and their invited collaborators.
We rely on your consent, the performance of our contract with you, and our legitimate operational interests, as permitted by Law 25 and PIPEDA. You may withdraw consent at any time; doing so may limit features that depend on the relevant information.
Some features use AI models (via Anthropic Claude through the Vercel AI Gateway) to draft and analyze text at your request. Your prompts and the matter content you submit to these features are processed only to return your result.
We do not use your matter content or uploaded documents to train AI models, and we contract for zero-retention processing with our AI providers wherever offered. AI output is a draft for your review — it is not legal advice and may contain errors.
We share personal information with vetted service providers strictly to operate the platform, under contracts that require confidentiality and equivalent protection:
We host your matters, documents, and account data in Canadian regions. Certain processors may process limited technical data outside Québec. Before any transfer outside Québec, we assess that the information receives adequate protection, as required by Law 25.
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law. You can delete matters and documents at any time. When you close your account (deboarding), we delete or irreversibly anonymize your content within a reasonable period, except where retention is legally required (e.g. tax, billing records).
Québec edition retention is governed by Law 25, PIPEDA, applicable limitation periods, billing/accounting duties, and legal-hold obligations. A legal hold suspends deletion while a dispute, investigation, preservation duty, or verified request requires preservation.
Counsel-gated placeholder: final retention schedules for closed matters, professional records and litigation holds remain subject to Québec counsel review before GA.
We protect personal information with encryption in transit and at rest, row-level access controls, least-privilege access, and audit logging. No system is perfectly secure, but we maintain measures proportionate to the sensitivity of litigation data.
Subject to law, you may access, rectify, and delete your personal information, withdraw consent, request portability of computerized data, and ask us to cease dissemination or de-index information. You may also lodge a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.
We do not make decisions about you based exclusively on automated processing. AI features assist you; the human in the loop — you — makes the decisions.
We maintain a register of confidentiality incidents and, where an incident presents a risk of serious injury, we notify affected persons and the Commission d'accès à l'information as required by Law 25.
The platform is intended for adults and is not directed at children under 14. We do not knowingly collect their information.
We may update this policy as the platform evolves. Material changes will be reflected here and noted in the changelog. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance.
We use HubSpot, Inc. (United States) as a CRM processor to maintain the relationship with existing customers. Contact identifiers (email and name) are communicated to it under a written data-processing agreement with standard contractual clauses that restrict use to our instructions. No matter/case data or sensitive personal information is transferred. This is a cross-border communication (Law 25 art. 17) assessed in our privacy impact assessment.
Québec Law 25 and Canada's PIPEDA, with Québec transfer-impact assessment before personal information leaves Québec.
French prevails in case of discrepancy, in accordance with Québec's Charter of the French language (Loi 96).
Closed matter archives are retained at least through the applicable Québec/Canadian limitation and accounting periods; judgment-debt archives use the 10-year C.C.Q. article 2924 horizon where recorded.
Legal hold suspends deletion or purge while a dispute, investigation, preservation duty, or user request requires preservation.
Counsel-gated placeholder: final legal wording remains subject to Québec counsel review before GA.
