Privacy Policy
Effective date: April 29, 2026
A note about clinical privacy
This policy describes how we handle information collected through our website. The privacy of your protected health information (PHI) as a client is governed by a separate Notice of Privacy Practices, which you will receive and acknowledge as part of your intake paperwork before beginning therapy.
Information we collect
When you contact us through our website, we may collect the information you choose to provide — typically your name, email address, phone number, and the contents of your message. We do not require you to share any clinical or health information through the website, and we ask that you avoid doing so.
How we use it
We use the information you provide solely to respond to your inquiry, schedule a consultation, or answer your questions about our services. We do not sell, rent, or trade your information, and we do not use it for advertising or marketing.
Service providers
We use trusted third-party providers to operate our website and email (including our hosting platform and Google Workspace for email). These providers process information on our behalf and are bound by their own privacy and security obligations.
Your choices
You may request that we access, correct, or delete the information you've submitted through our website by emailing connect@steadyrisecounseling.com. We'll respond promptly.
Cookies and analytics
Our website uses minimal cookies necessary for the site to function. We do not currently run third-party advertising or analytics trackers. If that changes, we'll update this policy.
Children's privacy
Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the site. Inquiries about therapy for minors should be made by a parent or legal guardian.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information submitted through our site, but no internet transmission is ever fully secure. Please do not send sensitive health information through the website's contact form.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of the page reflects when it was last revised.
