Subpoena Protocol
Passivae recognizes its legal obligations and is committed to complying with valid legal requests for user information.
Legal Process and Compliance
A subpoena is a legal order issued by a court or other authorized entity, compelling an individual or organization to provide testimony or produce documents. Passivae complies with all valid subpoenas and court orders in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, including the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) and the Stored Communications Act (SCA).
When Passivae receives a subpoena, our designated legal team carefully reviews it to ensure its validity and compliance with legal requirements. We strive to respond to subpoenas promptly and efficiently while safeguarding user privacy and minimizing data disclosure.
In most cases, Passivae will notify users whose information is subject to a subpoena, unless prohibited by law or court order (e.g., gag orders, emergency situations). This allows users to seek legal counsel or take appropriate action if they wish to challenge the subpoena.
Passivae is committed to protecting user data and privacy while upholding its legal obligations. We maintain strict confidentiality and data security measures throughout the subpoena process.
If you have received a subpoena requesting information from Passivae, please contact our designated agent.
We understand that legal processes can be complex, and we encourage users with questions or concerns about subpoenas to seek legal advice.
