We do not use personal information for purposes unrelated to the reason it was provided except where permitted or required by law.

3. SMS / Text Message Privacy

If you voluntarily provide your mobile telephone number and consent to receive text messages from Ditter Notary, we may use that number to communicate with you regarding appointments, service requests, transaction updates, reminders, customer service, or other communications for which you have provided consent.

SMS Non-Sharing Clause

Ditter Notary does not sell, rent, lease, or share your mobile telephone number or SMS consent information with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes. Your SMS consent will not be sold, transferred, or disclosed to third parties for the purpose of sending their own marketing text messages.

Your mobile number and SMS-related information may, however, be disclosed to service providers that assist Ditter Notary in delivering the communications or services you have requested, such as an SMS messaging platform, website provider, appointment-management system, or other technology provider. These service providers may use the information only as necessary to provide services to Ditter Notary and are not authorized to use your information for their own independent marketing purposes.

We may also disclose information when required or permitted by applicable law, including in response to a valid legal process, court order, subpoena, governmental request, or to protect our rights, property, customers, or the public.

Your consent to receive SMS messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services from Ditter Notary.

Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier.

You may opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying STOP to a text message from Ditter Notary. You may also contact us directly to request that text-message communications be discontinued.

For assistance with SMS communications, reply HELP or contact Ditter Notary using the contact information provided on this website.

4. Information Sharing and Disclosure

Ditter Notary does not sell or rent your personal information.

We may share limited information with trusted service providers when reasonably necessary to operate our business or provide services you have requested. Examples may include:

  • Website hosting providers

  • Appointment scheduling platforms

  • SMS or telecommunications providers

  • Email providers

  • Payment processors

  • Technology and business service providers

These providers receive only information reasonably necessary to perform their services.

We may also disclose information:

  • When you specifically authorize us to do so

  • When necessary to provide a service you have requested

  • When required or permitted by applicable law

  • In response to a subpoena, court order, or other valid legal process

  • To prevent fraud or protect the rights, safety, or property of Ditter Notary, our customers, or others

5. Notarial and Transaction Records

As a Pennsylvania notary public and PennDOT agent, Ditter Notary may be required to create, maintain, retain, or provide access to certain records as required by Pennsylvania law, regulations, PennDOT requirements, or other applicable requirements.

Information contained in official notarial, PennDOT, loan-signing, or other transaction records may therefore be retained for legally required periods and may be disclosed when disclosure is authorized or required by law.

This Privacy Policy does not override any statutory, regulatory, governmental, or contractual record-retention or disclosure requirement applicable to Ditter Notary.

6. Cookies and Website Technologies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to provide basic website functionality, understand website traffic, remember preferences, improve website performance, or support other website functions.

You may be able to control or disable cookies through your web browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of portions of the website.

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including websites operated by government agencies, service providers, professional organizations, or other businesses.

We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party website before providing personal information.

8. Data Security

Ditter Notary takes reasonable administrative, technical, and physical precautions to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

However, no website, electronic communication, computer system, or method of transmitting information over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You should exercise caution when submitting sensitive information electronically.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide requested services, maintain appropriate business records, satisfy legal and regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, and fulfill other legitimate business purposes.

Certain notarial, PennDOT, loan-signing, or other business records may be retained for periods established by applicable law, regulation, contractual requirements, or industry requirements.

10. Children’s Privacy

Our website and services are not directed toward children under the age of 13.
