Consultation services are made available by ETR for educational purposes only. Consultation services are not protected under attorney-client, protected patient, or other privilege. ETR does not offer legal, medical, or financial advice. By receiving this service, you understand that there is no attorney-client or patient relationship between you and ETR. This service should not be used as a substitute for competent legal advice from a licensed professional attorney in your state.
(3) Confidentiality
You will not be asked to provide personally identifiable information at any time during your use of the consultation services. By accepting ETR’s Title IX consultation services, you agree not to provide personally identifiable information, including that of case parties, when you use the service. The information conveyed to ETR staff during your Title IX consultation session will NOT be recorded, stored, or saved. ETR will not document any personally identifying information in service notes.
However, ETR does collect personally identifying information during the payment and service scheduling processes. ETR will not share the personally identifiable information provided as part of the payment or scheduling process with anyone outside the organization without express, written consent or as required by law. ETR will only use the name and contact information provided to process payment and facilitate the scheduling of the service.
Please note that some states require by law the reporting of information regarding the abuse of certain individuals. If you provide information that could lead ETR to identify such an individual, the information may be provided to the appropriate authorities as required by law.
