5. Cookie and Tracking Practices

Our website uses cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze website traffic, and understand how visitors interact with our site.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit our website. We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them). These technologies help us remember your preferences, understand which pages you visit, and improve our services.

We may also use third-party analytics services such as Google Analytics and Meta Pixel that use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about website usage. These third-party services have their own privacy policies governing the use of your information.

You may adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent, though some features of our website may not function properly without them. You can also opt out of certain third-party tracking by visiting the relevant opt-out pages provided by those services.

6. Data Security and Handling

We implement appropriate technical, administrative, and organizational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit, secure server infrastructure, access controls limiting data access to authorized personnel, regular security assessments, and employee training on data handling procedures.

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law. When personal information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

While we strive to protect your information using commercially reasonable safeguards, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you believe your information has been compromised, please contact us immediately.

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information

8. HIPAA Notice

While our practice may collect health-related information during the course of providing chiropractic services, please note that information submitted through our website forms is not subject to the same protections as information in your medical record. We encourage you to discuss sensitive health information directly with your care provider during your visit rather than through online forms.
