Last updated October 5, 2026. Written for the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). This draft explains the website as it is built. It is not legal advice.
Who this notice is from
Milton Legal Group operates miltonlegalgroup.com. Questions about this notice go to [email protected] or (647) 361-3740. That email address is the one shown on the site. It is also the address the site uses when the CONTACT_EMAIL setting is empty.
What the forms collect
The contact form asks for your name, email, phone number, and message. You can also attach an employment contract or a termination letter or severance offer. Those files are optional.
After you submit, the site may offer a second optional step: the employer's name, a signing deadline, and the same kinds of documents if you did not attach them already. You can skip that step.
The severance calculator asks for years of service, age, seniority, annual compensation, whether the end of employment was without cause, whether the role is unionized, and whether pay includes a bonus. Those answers stay in your browser while you look at the range. They are sent to us only if you ask a lawyer to check the estimate. That request also asks for your name, email, an optional phone number, and how you prefer to be contacted.
The site also records the page you were on, and the city named in that page address, when it counts a form completion or a click on a phone link. Those counts do not include your name, email, phone number, message, or salary.
Why it is collected
We use this information to reply to your inquiry, to review a severance estimate you asked us to look at, and to tell the firm that a new inquiry arrived. Uploaded documents are used for that review. The calculator result is an estimate, not a conclusion about your case.
Sending a form, using the calculator, or uploading a document does not create a lawyer-client relationship. That relationship starts only if the firm agrees to act for you.
Who processes it
The firm receives the inquiry. The website stores the lead record in its database (MongoDB, through the Payload content system on this site).
- Email is sent with Resend to the firm inbox. A confirmation email to you is sent only when that option is turned on.
- A text-message alert can be sent through OpenPhone (also called Quo) to the firm's notification number.
- A Slack notification can include your name, contact details, and message so the firm can respond.
- Contracts and termination letters are stored in a private Cloudflare R2 bucket, separate from the public media bucket. A download link emailed to the firm expires after 7 days. The software does not delete the file itself on that date.
- The site is hosted on Vercel.
- Cloudflare Turnstile may check that a submission comes from a person, when the site key is configured.
- Google Tag Manager (container GTM-5L4KBGMZ) loads on each page. Google Analytics 4 loads in the browser only when NEXT_PUBLIC_GA_ID is set. The firm also reads its own analytics reports with the GA4 Data API on the server. That server read is not a tag in your browser.
- This codebase does not install Vercel Web Analytics or a Meta pixel.
- If a request fails, Sentry may receive an error report. A failed Slack notification can include a short preview of that notification.
We do not sell inquiry information. Service providers above are used to run the site and to reply to you.
How long it is kept
This draft does not set a retention period. The software does not delete inquiry records on a schedule. The owner needs to decide how long lead records and uploaded files are kept before this policy is approved. Until then, records stay so the firm can respond and keep a file of the inquiry.
Access and correction
You can ask what personal information we hold about you, ask for a correction, or ask a question about this notice. Email [email protected]. We may need to confirm that the request is from you. If you are not satisfied, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
Cookies and similar tools
Google Tag Manager is on the site and may set cookies depending on the tags configured in that container. This repository does not list those tags. There is no separate cookie banner in the site code. Direct Google Analytics 4 is off unless NEXT_PUBLIC_GA_ID is set.
