Shorelight Healthcare Advocates are committed to protecting your privacy and safeguarding your personal and health information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit our website at [www.shorelighthealthcare.com], communicate with us, or use our online services. By using our website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

​

We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, date of birth, insurance information, and any other information you submit through contact forms, appointment requests, or patient intake forms. If you provide medical or health-related information through our website or patient portal, we may collect protected health information, including medical history, symptoms, treatment information, and prescription details, as necessary to provide healthcare services.

​

In addition to information you provide directly, we may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our website, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and usage data. We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve website performance, analyze traffic patterns, and enhance user experience. You may disable cookies through your browser settings, although some website features may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

We use the information we collect to schedule and manage appointments, provide healthcare services, respond to inquiries, communicate with you regarding your care, improve our website functionality, and comply with legal and regulatory requirements. We do not sell your personal or health information to third parties.

​

If we collect or maintain protected health information, we do so in compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and applicable state laws. Your medical information is also governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices, which explains how we use and disclose your health information and outlines your rights regarding that information. If applicable, you may request a copy of our Notice of Privacy Practices by contacting our office.

​

We may use trusted third-party service providers to support website hosting, appointment scheduling, payment processing, email communications, and analytics services. When these service providers have access to protected health information, we enter into Business Associate Agreements as required by law to ensure that your information is appropriately safeguarded.

​

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal and health information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

​

Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, or request copies of your personal information. You may also request amendments to your health records as permitted by law. Requests related to medical records should be submitted directly to our office using the contact information provided below.

Our website is not intended for children under the age of 13 without parental consent, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorization.
