This policy outlines how Healthy Life Chiropractic collects, uses, and protects your information, including Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). It covers both activities on our website and in-office procedures related to your care.
Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data or health history), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. All forms have 256 bit encryption to securely transmit information.
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data.
Our privacy policy does not cover content that is transmitted via email to our office. Email does not have the same encryption and security protocols and should not be used to transmit sensitive information.
When you use our website, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
Cookies enable us to customize your browsing experience and speed up website load times. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies at any time. If you decline cookies, you do not have access to the benefits of a custom web browsing experience.
We will not sell, share, or rent your Mobile Opt-in data or email to any third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.. You may remove your name from the list at any time by following the removal instructions at the bottom of any messages sent.
Healthy Life Chiropractic is required by law to protect the privacy of your Protected Health Information (PHI), provide this Notice of Privacy Practices, and comply with its terms.
How We May Use or Disclose Your PHI We may use or disclose your PHI without your written authorization for purposes of treatment, payment, and healthcare operations. For any other uses or disclosures, we will obtain your written authorization, which you may revoke at any time.
You have specific rights concerning your Protected Health Information (PHI) under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA):
Inspect and obtain copies of your medical records.
Request corrections to any inaccuracies.
Ask for restrictions on how we use or share your PHI for treatment, payment, or operations.
Request confidential communications (e.g., ask us to call your work phone rather than home).
Receive a record of certain disclosures we’ve made of your PHI.
Receive a paper copy of this privacy notice upon request.
File a complaint if you believe your privacy rights have been violated—either with us or the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. We will not retaliate for complaints filed.
