Data Privacy for Immigration Lawyers:
Why Mupler Complies with ABA, CCPA and GLBA
Last updated: February 11, 2026Immigration attorneys operate under strict ethical obligations to protect client confidentiality, handling highly sensitive data — passports, A-numbers, tax records, and family history. At Mupler, we believe your software should meet — and exceed — these standards.
Why Privacy Is Non-Negotiable in Immigration Tech
Immigration clients trust their attorneys with their most sensitive information. Any breach — even indirectly via your tech stack — can lead to malpractice claims, disciplinary action, or reputational damage.
The ABA and other regulatory bodies emphasize protecting client communications and records.
💡 Unfortunately, most generic CRMs and client management platforms are not designed with the privacy standards immigration practice demands
What Are CCPA and GLBA?
CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) gives consumers:
- ✓The right to know what personal data is collected
- ✓The right to request deletion of their data
- ✓The right to opt out of the sale of their data
GLBA (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) applies to financial institutions and, in some cases, immigration attorneys handling clients’ financial records:
- ✓Requires safeguards for the security and confidentiality of client records
- ✓Protects against unauthorized access
- ✓Enforces transparent data-sharing policies
💡 Although many immigration tools ignore these — Mupler complies with both
