Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 20, 2026

AdvocatED (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have. It applies to getadvocated.com and all AdvocatED services (the “Services”).

Who We Are

AdvocatED is a student advocacy and education advising service. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. We help students and families navigate academic misconduct allegations, disciplinary hearings, Title IX investigations, dismissal appeals, IEP/504 disputes, and related school processes.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

Information Collected Automatically

How We Use Information

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your case details with third parties except as described below.

Education Records and FERPA

We understand that information shared with us often includes sensitive education records. We treat this information as confidential. We do not disclose case details to your school, any third party, or the public without your explicit authorization, except (a) when you direct us to communicate with the school on your behalf, (b) when required by law or valid legal process, or (c) when necessary to protect the safety of you or others.

Children's Privacy

We provide K-12 advocacy services, but parents or guardians — not children — are our clients. Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If a parent or guardian shares information about their child with us in the course of seeking advisory services, we treat that information with the same confidentiality as adult case information. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted information to us directly, email support@getAdvocatED.com and we will delete it.

Service Providers

We use a small number of third-party service providers to operate our site and services. These providers process information only as needed to perform their services for us:

Data Retention

We retain case-related information for as long as is necessary to provide services to you and to maintain records for our business, legal, or regulatory needs. You may request deletion at any time by contacting us.

Your Choices and Rights

To exercise any of these rights, email support@getAdvocatED.com. We will respond within a reasonable period consistent with applicable law.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you believe your information has been compromised, contact us immediately.

Communications

By providing your phone number, you consent to receive SMS messages from us related to your case review or consultation. Standard messaging rates apply. You can opt out by replying STOP at any time.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of the page. Material changes will be noted prominently on our site.
