Protected Health Information (PHI) and the contact form

The Site is a marketing and information resource. Please do not include sensitive medical details in a contact form unless necessary. Where a message may contain health information, we route it through a secure intake channel covered by a Business Associate Agreement (BAA). We do not transmit such information through plain email or share it with analytics services. Treatment-related health information is governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices.

How we use your information

• To respond to your inquiries and route them to the appropriate practice.
• To operate, maintain, and improve the Site.
• To comply with legal obligations.

How we share information

We share the information you submit with the independent member practice or provider relevant to your inquiry so they can respond. We may use service providers (for example, secure form-intake and hosting vendors) who process information on our behalf under appropriate agreements. We do not sell your personal information.

Your choices and rights

You may contact us to ask about the information we hold about you. You can control cookies through your browser settings as described in our Cookie Policy.

Data retention and security

We retain information for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes described here or as required by law, and we use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect it. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure.
