Privacy Policy
How this website collects, uses and protects your information.
Effective date: [EFFECTIVE DATE]
Attorney review required before launch.
This page is a drafting template prepared to give the site a
complete structure. It is not legal advice and has not been reviewed by counsel. A
healthcare attorney licensed in California must review, complete and approve it before this site goes
live. Bracketed items marked [LIKE THIS] must be completed.
Aries Health and Wellness (“we”, “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information this website collects, how it is used, and the choices available to you.
This policy covers this website only. Protected health information created or received in the course of your care is governed separately by our Notice of Privacy Practices.
Information we collect
- Information you provide. Your name, email address, telephone number, area of interest and any message content you submit through our contact form or symptom questionnaire.
- Automatically collected information. [DESCRIBE ANALYTICS IN USE — e.g. Google Analytics 4: IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring URL. If no analytics are installed, state that.]
- Cookies. [LIST COOKIES SET, INCLUDING ANY THIRD-PARTY COOKIES, AND THEIR PURPOSE AND DURATION. If the site sets no cookies beyond those strictly necessary, state that.]
How we use your information
- To respond to enquiries you submit
- To schedule and administer appointments
- To operate, maintain and improve this website
- To comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information. [CONFIRM AND, IF ANY SHARING FOR ADVERTISING PURPOSES OCCURS, DISCLOSE IT — under the California Consumer Privacy Act, sharing data with advertising platforms may constitute a “sale” or “share” requiring an opt-out link.]
Health information submitted through this website
Please do not submit medical or health details through the contact form or the symptom questionnaire. Those forms are processed by a third-party form provider and are not a secure channel for protected health information. Once you are a patient, use the patient portal for anything involving your health information.
Third-party service providers
We use the following third parties in operating this website:
- [FORM PROVIDER — e.g. Formspree] to receive and deliver contact form submissions
- [HOSTING PROVIDER]
- [ANALYTICS PROVIDER, IF ANY]
- Google Maps, to display our clinic location
- Google Fonts, to deliver web typography
- OptiMantra, our patient scheduling and portal platform (governed by its own privacy policy)
[CONFIRM WHETHER A BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT IS IN PLACE WITH EACH VENDOR THAT MAY RECEIVE PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION. Standard website form providers typically do not sign BAAs.]
Tracking technologies and health information
[IMPORTANT — CONFIRM WITH COUNSEL. Federal guidance addresses the use of online tracking technologies by HIPAA-covered entities. Advertising and analytics trackers should not be deployed on pages where a visitor's activity could reveal information about their health conditions or treatment.]
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, and to opt out of certain uses. California residents have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act. [DESCRIBE THE REQUEST PROCESS AND VERIFICATION METHOD.] To make a request, contact us using the details below.
Data retention and security
[DESCRIBE RETENTION PERIODS AND SAFEGUARDS.] We maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards, though no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.
Children's privacy
This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date above indicates when it was last revised.
