Varyom cooperates with valid legal process while protecting user privacy and narrowing overbroad requests.
1. Acceptable process
- Subpoena, court order, or search warrant issued by a court of competent jurisdiction.
- MLAT or letters rogatory for non-U.S. requests.
- Preservation requests under 18 U.S.C. §2703(f).
- Formal regulatory requests with cited authority.
2. Submission
Serve to legal@varyom.com with agency letterhead, case reference, requesting officer contact, and a specific description of records sought. Physical service address available on request.
3. Emergency requests
Emergency Disclosure Requests must include a statement of imminent threat of death or serious physical injury and cite 18 U.S.C. §2702(b)(8)/(c)(4). We evaluate each in good faith.
4. User notice
We notify affected users of legal process before disclosure where permitted by law, unless a court order, statute, or exigent circumstances prohibit notice.
5. Narrow tailoring & cost recovery
We object to overbroad or unduly burdensome requests and may seek cost reimbursement to the extent permitted by law.
