Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 22, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how The Marriage and Family Therapist ("we," "us," or "our") collects and handles information submitted through this website (themarriageandfamilytherapist.com). It applies to this website only.
Information we collect
We collect the information you choose to provide through our consultation request form, which may include your first and last name, email address, phone number, and anything you write in the message field.
Our website host (Wix) may set basic functional cookies needed to operate and secure the site. We do not collect personal information from visitors who simply browse the site without submitting the form. See "Analytics and advertising" below for the limited advertising measurement we use.
How we use your information
We use the information you submit solely to respond to your inquiry, schedule a consultation, and communicate with you about our services. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Service providers
We rely on a small number of service providers to operate the site and deliver form submissions to us. They process information on our behalf:
- Wix: hosts this website and stores form submissions.
- Web3Forms: delivers your form submission to us by email.
Analytics and advertising
This website uses Google Ads conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. When you visit this site after clicking one of our ads, Google may set a cookie on your browser to record that a consultation request was submitted. This information is used only to understand whether our ads are working. It is not used to identify you personally, and it is not shared with any third party beyond Google's advertising platform. No health information you submit through our contact or consultation form is shared with Google. You can opt out of Google's use of cookies by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
We also use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how visitors find and use this website (for example, which pages are viewed and how people arrive here). Google Analytics may set cookies and process limited technical information such as a truncated IP address, browser type, and pages visited. We use this only to improve the site and our outreach. We do not send Google Analytics any name, email, phone number, or health information you enter into our forms. You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by installing Google's opt-out browser add-on.
Important: please don't share sensitive health details here
How long we keep it
We retain consultation requests for as long as needed to respond to you and maintain reasonable business records. You may ask us to delete your information at any time.
Your choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the information you've provided by emailing us at the address below. Depending on where you live (for example, California or the European Union), you may have additional rights regarding your personal information.
Children's privacy
This website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information submitted to us. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, which is why we ask you not to share sensitive details through the form.
Your right to a Good Faith Estimate
Under the federal No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining the expected cost of services if you don't have insurance or aren't using insurance to pay. You may request a written estimate before scheduling, and one will be provided at least one business day before your first session. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you may be able to dispute it. Please keep a copy of any estimate you receive. For more information, visit cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent version.
