Privacy Policy

At the New Jersey State Bar Association, respecting our customers’ privacy is very important to us.

The information we collect is used strictly for internal purposes, except as noted below. The data allows the NJSBA to better understand our members and customers, thereby helping us fulfill our mission of better serving the legal profession.

The demographic information that we collect online is used to improve the content of our website, notify members and customers about updates to our website, and enable us to reach out to share information about the association.

Member And Customer Demographic Information

The NJSBA, and its educational arm NJICLE, collect demographic information from our members and customers on a voluntary basis. The NJSBA believes that by collecting and analyzing information about race, gender and other demographic variables, we can better serve our members and customers. For instance, each year the Board of Trustees analyses existing information about the NJSBA membership in order to designate what groups should be considered underrepresented, as per the bylaws.

All responses are kept private and it is never the case that a person is required to provide information in order to be a member or customer. The goal is only to serve all of its communities in a more effective manner.

Website Visitor Information

We collect information you provide through accounts, forms, surveys, requests, saved practice areas, and website searches. Website and security services also process technical information needed to deliver and protect the site. Optional analytics and the separate search and preference features described below collect different information; not all website information is anonymous or limited to aggregate totals.

Postal Addresses

If you supply us with your postal address you may receive periodic mailings from us with information on new products, services, or upcoming events. Persons who supply us with telephone numbers online may receive telephone calls from us with information regarding requests or questions they have made.

Sharing With Your Permission

NJSBA shares information with providers of related products and services that may interest you only with your consent. We do not share addresses or telephone numbers for these marketing purposes.

If you have questions or previously opted in and wish to withdraw your permission, contact [email protected] or call 732-249-5000. You may also write to us at the address below. Cookie consent and permission to share information for marketing are separate choices.

Saved Practice Areas And Program Finder

You may select multiple practice areas to personalize the Program Finder. When you choose to remember areas in your browser, the selections are stored in that browser’s local storage without an automatic expiration. They do not follow you to another device unless saved to your account. You can change your areas or clear the browser’s site data to remove browser-stored selections.

Account-saved areas use the same preferences as My Practice Areas and are available to authorized staff. If you sign in with remembered browser areas and your account has no saved areas, those browser selections are automatically saved to your account. If your account already has different areas, you can choose whether to merge them. We retain the previous account selection for recovery and account-linked comparison information for usage reports.

Saving practice areas does not subscribe you to marketing emails or authorize sharing for marketing. Credit, ethics, attendance, and search filters are not saved as your account’s practice-area preferences. With Statistics consent, their use may be recorded for reporting.

Program Finder Usage Reports

With your Statistics consent, we record Program Finder searches, selected filters and areas, result counts, program-detail clicks, and registration-link clicks. The activity table groups matching activity by day and does not attach your account ID or raw IP address. Search text can still contain personal information; please do not enter confidential client information, passwords, or other sensitive details. The reporting code masks common email and phone-number patterns, but this does not remove every kind of identifying information.

Authorized staff can review this information to improve programs and help visitors find relevant content. Scheduled staff emails contain aggregate counts, not raw search terms or names. Registration-link clicks do not establish that a purchase was completed. Activity older than 90 days is removed by periodic cleanup triggered by new recorded activity; account preferences, recovery copies, report comparison records, backups, and email copies have separate retention. Contact us about access, correction, or deletion requests.

Site Search And AI-Assisted Answers

The separate site-wide search processes and records search text, search refinements, result counts, and search-result clicks to operate and improve search. These server-side search functions operate separately from optional analytics cookies. Please do not put confidential client information or other sensitive personal information in the search box.

AI-assisted answers are enabled for eligible questions. The search service may send your question and relevant website-result excerpts to Google’s Gemini service to generate a short answer. The integration does not deliberately add your account ID or IP address to that request, but information you type is part of the question. AI answers may be inaccurate; use the linked source pages to confirm information. Search records and AI processing are separate from the Program Finder’s Statistics-consent setting.

NJSBA Policy On Cookies

NJSBA uses necessary cookies to preserve your login status, support website security, remember your cookie choices, and provide website functions you request. With your permission, optional cookies help us understand website use and improve your visit. Visiting or continuing to use a website does not itself constitute consent to optional cookies.

On NJSBA.com, WPConsent is our cookie-consent manager. Its banner lets you accept optional cookies, reject them, or select available categories in Preferences. Necessary cookies support functions such as security, login, and remembering your cookie choices. Optional analytics and embedded third-party services are explained below. Choices on this website do not automatically apply to separate websites or services you visit through links.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of text placed on your computer’s hard drive by your web browser or by a website you visit. A cookie file allows our websites or a third-party to recognize you and make your next visit easier for you or more useful to you.

How NJSBA Uses Cookies

We use cookies to keep you signed in as you move between pages, support secure access to your account, remember your choices, and make requested website functions work. Optional analytics cookies are used only with your consent to help us understand which content is useful and improve the website experience. Cookie choices on NJSBA.com do not automatically apply to NJICLE.com or other separate services.

Cookies can be “persistent” or “session” cookies. We use both session and persistent cookies on our websites, including to authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use of/access to user accounts.

Third-Party Cookies

With your permission, third-party analytics cookies help us understand website use and improve our services. Optional embedded content may also use third-party cookies when you choose to enable it.

Information Collected By Third-Party Cookies

With your consent, we use Google Analytics, implemented through MonsterInsights, to understand website use and improve our services. Google Analytics may process information about your device, approximate location, and website activity. Optional analytics cookies remain off until you consent and can be managed through Cookie Preferences.

Information Our Analytics Software May Collect

  • User’s location information, e.g., city, country/territory, continent.
  • User’s behavior, e.g., whether the user is a new or returning visitor, the frequency of visits/date of last visit.
  • User’s technology, e.g., operating system, network/service provider (ISP and network host).
  • Mobile information, e.g., whether the user accessed the websites via a mobile device and, if so, the type of device (brand, service provider, operating system, and input selection method).
  • Content viewed, e.g., pages, files, and directories clicked on; landing pages/exit pages; and search words (if any) used on the websites.

IP Addresses

An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the Internet. When you visit our websites, we may view the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet. We use this information to determine the general physical location of the device and understand from what geographic regions our website visitors come. We also may use this information to enhance our websites.

We may use one or more of these technologies to gather information and statistics regarding use of our websites. We also use site analytics and tracking information to generate various reports regarding use of our websites. These reports contain aggregated information about users use of our websites.

Use Cookie Preferences to change or withdraw your optional cookie consent. Use the Cookie Preferences link in the main navigation (under Resources where that menu is used), the mobile menu, or the footer. You can also open Cookie Preferences here. Your choice is stored in a necessary cookie for 30 days. If you clear cookies or use another browser or device, you may need to choose again.

Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal. You may also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Rejecting optional cookies can prevent optional videos, maps, or similar content from loading; necessary site functions remain separate from these choices.

Please note, however, that if you delete cookies or refuse to accept them, you might not be able to use all of the features offered on our websites, you may not be able to store your preferences, and some of our pages might not display properly.

Where Can You Find More Information About Cookies?

For general information, visit the Federal Trade Commission’s guide to website tracking and privacy choices. This is an informational resource; it does not manage your NJSBA cookie choices. Use Cookie Preferences on this website to change those choices.

Cookie Details

The table below lists cookies documented in our consent manager. The Google Analytics service library includes cookies used by different versions and features; not every listed cookie is set on every visit. Cookies used by separate services or account features may vary with the pages and functions you use. Contact us with any questions about a cookie or your choices.

Your Privacy Requests

Depending on where you live, the applicable law, and its exceptions, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain a copy of your personal information; restrict or object to certain processing; withdraw consent; or opt out of certain sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or profiling activities.

These request channels are available to visitors in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Economic Area, including Portugal and Germany. Where UK or EU data protection law applies, you may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or your relevant EU supervisory authority, including Portugal’s CNPD or the appropriate German supervisory authority. Your rights depend on the law that applies to your circumstances.
