Thank you for visiting Dr. Clarie-Ann Henriques, PLLC. I am committed to respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal information that you provide through our website. By using this website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Collection of Protected Health Information (PHI)

My website itself is not intended for the collection, transmission, or storage of Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

The contact form redirects you to my HIPAA-compliant portal form in Simple Practice, which does safeguard the information you input.

2. Information Collected

IP Address & Device Details: Non-personal information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, and pages visited.

Cookies & Similar Technologies: We use cookies, beacons, and other tracking tools (like Wix Analytics) to understand how you use our website and to improve functionality.

3. Information Usage

I may use the information I collect to:

Respond to Inquiries: Schedule or confirm appointments, answer questions, or provide requested information about my services (in a non-PHI context).

Text Messaging and calling: Message and data rates may apply to text messages. Text messages and calls go through Spruce, a HIPAA-compliant, confidential platform.

4. Third-Party Services & Hosting

Hosting on Wix: My website is hosted on Wix, which may collect server logs (e.g., IP addresses, timestamps) for security and operations. For more details, see Wix’s Privacy Policy here: https://www.wix.com/about/privacy.

I do not sell or rent your personal information. No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All other categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Exception to data sharing: Legal Requirements: If required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.

6. Children’s Privacy

My website is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe your child has submitted personal information without parental consent, please contact me so I can remove it.

7. Security Measures

I take commercially reasonable steps to protect the personal (non-medical) information submitted through our site. However, no website or electronic system is completely secure. I cannot guarantee absolute security of your information, especially if you choose to submit sensitive data (which we discourage).

8. Your Choices
