What we collect on our website

You choose what to send us through our website forms.

  • Appointment and offer requests: name, phone, email, clinic, preferred time, and an optional short reason for your visit.
  • Insurance checks: the same details, plus date of birth, insurance company, member ID, and optional photos of your card.

Please don’t include detailed medical information in website forms.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, ours collects some information when you visit.

  • Pages you view and buttons you click.
  • Your device and browser type, and your general location based on your internet address.
  • How you reached us, such as an ad click ID or campaign tag in the link.
  • A random visit ID for your browser session. It helps us see which pages lead to booked appointments.

Cookies and similar tools

We use cookies and browser storage to keep the site working and to measure how it’s used.

[Counsel to review/complete: list of cookies and tools, and the cookie settings or consent tool, if any.]

How we use information

  • To answer your requests and schedule appointments.
  • To check your insurance coverage before your visit.
  • To send the newsletter, after you sign up and confirm your email.
  • To understand how people use our site, and to improve it.

Analytics, advertising, and health information

We use analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, to see how people use our site. We may also use advertising tools, such as Google Ads, to reach people.

Our site sends these tools only limited facts. These include the type of event, such as a button click or a sent form, the page, and the clinic you chose.

We never send names, email addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, insurance details, or visit reasons to analytics or advertising platforms.

No health information goes to advertising platforms.

When a website visit leads to a booked appointment, our server tells Google Ads. It sends only the ad click ID and the type of event. It never sends names, contact details, conditions, or appointment notes.

The service that receives our website forms is HIPAA-ready. It has signed a business associate agreement (BAA) with us.

[Counsel to review/complete: full list of analytics and advertising tools, and a review of the setup against current HHS online tracking guidance.]

When we share information

We share information only as needed to run our clinics and website.

  • With your clinic, so its team can help you.
  • With service providers that work for us, such as our form service, scheduling and records software, email platform, and website host. They may use it only to provide their services.
  • When the law requires it, or to protect the rights and safety of our patients, staff, or others.

[Counsel to review/complete: business transfers, and any other sharing.]

Children

Our website is meant for adults. Parents and guardians can request care for a child.

We don’t knowingly collect information online from children under 13.

[Counsel to review/complete: children’s privacy statement.]

How we protect information

We use reasonable safeguards to protect the information you send us. Our website uses encryption (HTTPS) to protect forms as they’re sent.

No website can promise perfect protection. Please don’t send detailed health information through forms or email.

[Counsel to review/complete: safeguards description and how long we keep form submissions and newsletter data.]
