Advertising

Ryan Hayes Therapy may use online advertising services to help people find relevant information about the practice.

Third-Party Services and Links

This website may link to or use third-party services for functions such as scheduling, client portals, video conferencing, analytics, hosting, or other practice operations.

When you leave this website or use a third-party service, that service may have its own privacy policy and terms.

Ryan Hayes Therapy is not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third-party websites.

Therapy Records and Protected Health Information

This website Privacy Policy is separate from the privacy practices governing clinical records and protected health information associated with therapy services.

Clinical information and therapy records are handled according to applicable professional, ethical, and legal requirements, including HIPAA where applicable.

Clients may receive additional privacy documentation describing how protected health information may be used or disclosed and explaining their rights regarding that information.

Security

Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information associated with the website and practice.

However, no website, email system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Parents or legal guardians seeking services for a minor should contact the practice directly.
