Effective Date: June 21, 2026
Balanced Psychiatry LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website mybalancedpsychiatry.com (the “Site”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information with the utmost care and professionalism. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our Site.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using the Site, you consent to the data practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect on the Site includes:
- Personal Data: Personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, telephone number, and any clinical notes or messages you voluntarily provide to us when you choose to fill out a contact form, request a consultation, or sign up for our services.
- Derivative Data: Information our servers automatically collect when you access the Site, such as your IP address, your browser type, your operating system, your access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Site.
2. Use of Your Information
Having accurate information about you allows us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Site to:
- Respond to your clinical inquiries, consultation requests, and contact form submissions.
- Deliver, manage, and facilitate scheduling for your psychiatric care and evaluations.
- Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Site.
- Maintain the security and integrity of our digital infrastructure.
3. Disclosure & Third-Party Integration
We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We only share information with third-party service providers who perform services for us or on our behalf, including:
- Practice Management & Electronic Health Records (EHR): Our website integrates with secure, HIPAA-compliant third-party systems for clinical scheduling, intake, and patient charting. Any medical or health-related information submitted through our official patient portal links is securely routed directly to our EHR and is protected under strict federal medical privacy laws.
- Laboratory Services: When coordinating diagnostic, functional, or pharmacogenetic testing, data is handled strictly through secure, specialized clinical portals in accordance with standard medical privacy regulations.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other tracking technologies on the Site to help customize the Site and improve your experience. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. You can remove or reject cookies through your browser settings, but please be aware that such action could affect the availability and functionality of the Site.
5. Medical Data vs. Website Data
It is important to note that this website serves as an informational and administrative front door. While we maintain industry-standard security protocols for data submitted via our website contact forms, standard website contact forms are not intended to serve as secure, encrypted environments for transmitting highly confidential medical or urgent psychiatric histories. Once you establish care or access our secure, HIPAA-compliant patient portal, your Protected Health Information (PHI) is governed by separate federal standards, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and our Notice of Privacy Practices, rather than this website-specific policy.
