Who We Are
At SmileHB Dental, we take your privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal data when you visit our website, contact us, or receive treatment at our clinic.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged into that website.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
We do not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Any data shared with third parties is done so only for the purpose of providing services directly related to the treatment you receive at SmileHB Dental and only with your explicit consent.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Data Security
We implement a variety of security measures to ensure the safety of your personal information. This includes encryption, firewalls, and secure access controls to protect data from unauthorized access.
Patient Data
As a dental clinic, we collect personal health information as part of the treatment process. This data is only shared with relevant healthcare providers as needed, and we take all necessary measures to ensure its confidentiality and security. We do not share patient data with third parties for marketing purposes, and all data is securely stored following HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) guidelines.
Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect or solicit information from anyone under the age of 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13, we will delete that information as soon as possible.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated policy on this page and update the Effective Date at the top of the page. We encourage you to review this privacy policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.
