Privacy, security, and choice

The work depends on confidence. The system should earn it.

Memo to Matter is built around the way New York residential practices work—and the trust that work requires.

EffectiveUpdated August 20, 2026privacy-choices-v1

Protect the work. Respect the people doing it.

A residential transaction carries more than documents. It carries client information, the firm's judgment, and relationships built over years. Our job is to handle only what the system needs, protect it carefully, and leave the decisions that belong to attorneys and staff with them.

Ask only for what belongs here

Preferred Access needs contact and fit information—not client names, matter documents, property details, or privileged information. Please keep those out of the form.

Keep access to the task at hand

We limit credentials and system access to the service and task that need them. Information should not travel farther than its purpose requires.

Say when something did not work

If a required security check or provider connection fails, the site tells you instead of confirming a request it did not save.

Make the proof match the promise

We test the request path, review dependencies, and check the boundaries around the information we collect. We make security claims only when the evidence supports them.

A defined role for AI

Standardize the routine. Keep judgment with people.

Memo to Matter uses AI for defined tasks inside approved workflows. It gets the context and permissions required for that task—not open-ended access to a practice. Handoffs remain traceable, and attorneys and staff stay in control wherever judgment, client care, or relationship work is involved.

We do not use information submitted through Preferred Access to train AI models. We will not widen that boundary without a clear purpose, narrow permission, and evidence that the safeguard works.
