Privacy Policy

Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Courage Root Women's Mental Health handles information collected through this website. It applies to website visits, basic business communications, and visits to pages that link out to third-party services. It does not replace our Notice of Privacy Practices, which describes how protected health information may be used and disclosed in connection with clinical care.

Information Collected Through This Website

Depending on how you use the website, we or our service providers may process basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, pages viewed, and the date and time of requests. If you contact us by phone or standard email, we may also receive the contact information and message content you choose to provide.

As of this effective date, this website is not configured with advertising pixels, retargeting tags, newsletter tools, or on-site analytics scripts. We may still receive limited server-side or security-related logs through our hosting and infrastructure providers as part of operating the website.

How Website Information Is Used

• To operate, host, secure, and troubleshoot the website.
• To respond to general business inquiries you send by phone or standard email.
• To maintain records of ordinary administrative communications.
• To comply with applicable legal, regulatory, and professional obligations.

What This Website Does Not Do

This website is not a secure patient portal and is not intended for the direct collection of protected health information for treatment. It does not offer an on-site intake form, and it does not sell personal information or use targeted advertising cookies as of the effective date of this policy.

Third-Party Services

This website relies on third-party service providers for hosting, domain, and related infrastructure. In addition, secure intake, portal messaging, appointment requests, and patient-facing forms are routed through SimplePractice rather than handled directly on this website. When you follow a link to SimplePractice or another third-party site, the privacy and security practices of that third party will govern your use of that service.

Security and Communication Limits

We use reasonable measures to support the security of the website, but no website or ordinary email channel can guarantee complete security. Standard email and ordinary website communications are not appropriate for urgent concerns or for sending sensitive health information. For protected health information, secure intake, or ongoing clinical communications, use our SimplePractice portal and secure inquiry workflow.

Retention

We retain website-related information and ordinary business correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the website, respond to communications, maintain records, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes. Technical logs may also be retained by service providers according to their own retention schedules.

Colorado Privacy Rights

Colorado residents may have rights regarding certain non-exempt personal data under applicable law. Many healthcare-related records are governed by other privacy laws, including HIPAA, and may fall outside the scope of the Colorado Privacy Act. If you believe you have a privacy-related request regarding website information, contact us and we will review the request under the laws that apply to the information at issue.

Children's Privacy

This website is not directed to children under 13 and is intended to provide practice information to adults and caregivers. Please do not submit personal information through ordinary website or email channels on behalf of a child if the information is sensitive or urgent.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will post the revised policy on this page and update the effective date.
