Effective date: January 1, 2026
This policy explains how Practical Therapy of Edmonds handles consumer health data collected through this website, as required by Washington's My Health My Data Act (chapter 19.373 RCW). It covers information you share before you become a client, such as a message asking about therapy, and information collected automatically when you use the site.
Once you become a client, your health information is protected health information under HIPAA and Washington's Uniform Health Care Information Act, and my Notice of Privacy Practices applies instead.
Consumer health data I collect
- Information you send me: your name, phone number, email address and anything you choose to include in a message, which may include what brings you to therapy.
- Information collected automatically: basic technical data such as your browser type, the pages you visit and your approximate location from your IP address, collected by the site's hosting and, if used, privacy-friendly analytics. The map on the homepage is provided by Google Maps, which may collect data under Google's own privacy policy.
Where it comes from
Directly from you, and from your browser or device when you use the site.
How I use it
- to respond to your questions and schedule a free consultation session;
- to keep the website working and secure;
- to understand, in aggregate, which pages are helpful.
I do not sell consumer health data. I do not use it for advertising, and I do not share it with advertising networks or data brokers.
Who I share it with
- Service providers (processors) that run the website, email and scheduling for me, such as my website host (Google), my email provider, Google Maps and SimplePractice. They may use the data only to provide their services to me.
- As required by law, for example in response to a valid court order.
Your rights
Under Washington law you have the right to:
- confirm whether I collect, share or sell your consumer health data, and see that data;
- get a list of the third parties and affiliates I share it with;
- withdraw your consent to my collecting and sharing it;
- ask me to delete it.
To make a request, email info@practicaltherapyofedmonds.com or call (425) 478-3101. I will respond within 45 days, and may extend that once by another 45 days when reasonably necessary, telling you why. If I deny your request, you can appeal by replying to my decision with "Appeal" in the subject line, and I will respond within 45 days. If you are not satisfied, you may contact the Washington State Attorney General at www.atg.wa.gov.
Changes
If I change this policy, I will post the new version here with a new effective date. I will not use your data for a new purpose without first telling you and getting your consent.
