If you contact us by phone, fax, or in person, that interaction is handled according to our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, not this Policy.
B. Information Collected Automatically by Wix
This Site is built and hosted on the Wix platform (Wix.com, Inc.). As is standard for websites, Wix automatically collects certain technical information when you visit the Site. This information is collected and processed by Wix on our behalf and may include:

C. Cookies
Wix places cookies on your browser when you visit this Site. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. The cookies used on this Site fall into two categories:
Essential cookies (always active): Required for the Site to function — for example, to remember your session or maintain site security. These cannot be disabled.
Analytics/functional cookies (non-essential): Used by Wix to track aggregate, anonymized site usage data. We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or marketing trackers on this Site.
You can manage or disable non-essential cookies at any time through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect basic functionality of the Site.

The automatically collected technical data described above is used only to:
-
Ensure the Site loads correctly and securely

Understand general visitor patterns (e.g., which pages are most viewed)
-
Improve the Site's content and navigation over time
We do not use website visitor data for marketing, advertising, or any commercial purpose.
4. Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.
The only third party with access to the automatically collected technical data described in this Policy is Wix.com, Inc., our website platform provider. Wix processes this data as our service provider under its own privacy policy, available at wix.com/about/privacy.
We may disclose information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental authority.
5. HIPAA and Your Medical Information

7. Hawaii Residents
Hawaii does not currently have a comprehensive consumer data privacy statute equivalent to California's CCPA. However, we are committed to transparency and handling all data responsibly. If you have questions about what information, if any, is associated with your visit to this Site, please contact us using the information in Section 1 above.
8. Links to Third-Party Sites

9. Data Security
Wix implements industry-standard security measures to protect data transmitted through and stored on their platform. As noted above, we do not collect or store personal information through this Site ourselves. No method of internet transmission is 100% secure; however, we take reasonable precautions to protect any data associated with this Site.
