Minnesota Legal Kiosk Privacy Policy

Thank you for choosing to use the Legal Kiosk. This privacy policy applies to anyone who uses a Legal Kiosk. We have carefully considered protecting your identity and privacy wherever possible, knowing that you may choose to use the Legal Kiosk to help research or gather resources about issues you may be experiencing.

We encourage users to only use the Legal Kiosk for the intended purposes, such as researching legal issues, finding and applying for legal help, participating in legal meetings and case proceedings, and working on legal matters. We recommend that users refrain from accessing unrelated platforms, websites, or services while using the Legal Kiosk. Doing so minimizes the risk of unintended personal information being tracked.

Privacy Policy When Using a Legal Kiosk

This part of the Privacy Policy talks about your privacy and data when you are using any part of the Legal Kiosk, including things like viewing or editing documents, printing or scanning things, participating in videoconferencing, using the web browser to visit any website, and any other ways you interact with the Legal Kiosk.


Who owns this data and what do we gather?  

Legal Services State Support owns and processes the data you provide us when you use the Legal Kiosk. We collect the following types of data:

  • the applications you use, including usage of any accessibility applications
  • the websites you visit
  • the search terms you use
  • the titles of any documents you download, edit, or print, including legal forms 

In extreme cases, we may also record screen interactions or take screenshots of usage activity so that we can troubleshoot any technical issues or performance interruptions on the Legal Kiosk.

When you visit websites or use applications that we do not own, those websites and applications may track and use your data. We do not control how those websites and applications use your data and are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those websites and applications. Please read the privacy policy of those third-party websites and applications before providing any personal information. 

We comply with applicable laws and regulations in the area where the Legal Kiosk is hosted to protect the rights, privacy, safety, or property of you, us, or others.

What do we not gather?

The Legal Kiosk does not track usernames or passwords. We attempt to anonymize all data by basing data on sessions. The word “anonymize” means that the information can not be identified with a specific person. Even though we try to keep all data anonymous, it may be possible to figure out some details about you through your usage of the Legal Kiosk, like if you visit social media profiles or other personal pages.

Our Legal Kiosk does not knowingly or intentionally collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe our Legal Kiosk has collected personal information about your child, please contact us. Learn more about protecting your child's privacy online.

These vendors help us collect and store usage information, provide customer support, improve the usability of Kiosks, and gain insights into how and how frequently Legal Kiosks are used.

This shared data may include, but is not limited to, any of the types of data listed above. Third-party tools, vendors, and partners may have their own privacy policies, which may differ from our policy. We are not responsible for their collection policies and procedures, some of which you can find here:

We also share aggregated data about use of the Legal Kiosks with potential and existing funders, local legal aid organizations, potential and existing host site organizations, and partners in the legal aid and legal aid technology communities.
