Privacy Policy

What stays between us.

This policy describes how I collect, use, and protect your information when you visit this site or reach out through it. Plain language. No fine print.

Privacy policy details

01

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how Dr. Lindsay Campbell, a licensed therapist serving clients throughout California ( “I,” “me,” or “the practice ”), collects, uses, and safeguards information when you visit this website or reach out through it.

This policy covers the websiteonly. Information you share inside the therapy room — what I'll call “protected health information” or PHI — is governed separately under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and described in a dedicated Notice of Privacy Practices, which I provide during client onboarding and is available on request.

I never sell, rent, or trade your information. Not now, not ever.

02

What I collect

Two kinds of information may be collected when you use this site:

Information you share directly

  • Contact form submissions — name, email, phone (optional), and whatever you choose to write in the message.
  • Consultation scheduling — your selected date and time, plus any preferences you note.
  • Direct outreach by email or phone — whatever you share in that conversation.

Information collected automatically

  • Basic server logs (IP address, browser type, pages viewed) — standard for any web hosting.
  • Anonymized analytics about how visitors use the site (page views, referrers, general location at the city level).
  • Functional cookies that remember preferences during your visit.
03

How it's used

I use the information collected to:

  • Respond to your inquiry or scheduling request.
  • Send appointment reminders and follow-ups (only with consent).
  • Improve the website — what's clear, what's confusing, what people are looking for.
  • Comply with legal and tax obligations.

That's it. Your information is not used for targeted advertising, sold to third parties, or shared beyond what you'll find described below.

04

Cookies & analytics

This site uses a small number of cookies — most are essential for the site to function (remembering your form input as you type, for example). A separate set of analytics cookies helps me understand visitor patterns in aggregate, without identifying you personally.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Note that some forms may not work fully if cookies are blocked. If you use a tool like Apple's Private Relay, you may additionally be hidden from any analytics altogether — which is also fine.

05

Third-party services

This site relies on a few external services to operate:

  • Vercel — for website hosting and content delivery.
  • Scheduling platform — to manage consultation calls (their data practices are governed by their own privacy policy).
  • Privacy-respecting analytics — to understand site traffic without invasive tracking.
  • Email delivery — when reminders or replies are sent.

Each of these providers has its own privacy practices. I choose tools with reputations for taking user data seriously, and I'm happy to discuss specifics if you ask.

06

Data security

The website is served over HTTPS with modern encryption. Forms are transmitted securely. The scheduling platform and video sessions are operated on HIPAA-compliant infrastructure when handling clinical conversations.

No transmission method is 100% secure — that's the honest truth of the internet — but I take reasonable technical and organizational steps to protect the information you share. If you ever have a concern about a suspected breach or vulnerability, please email me directly.

07

Your rights (California)

If you're a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) give you specific rights about your personal information:

  • Right to know — what information I have about you and where it came from.
  • Right to delete — request deletion of personal information (with some narrow legal exceptions).
  • Right to correct — request that I correct inaccurate information.
  • Right to opt out of sale— although as noted, I don't sell information.
  • Right to non-discrimination— exercising these rights won't affect the care or services you receive.

To exercise any of these rights, email me directly or use the contact form. I'll respond within 45 days, as required by law.

08

Clinical data & HIPAA

This website is for general visitors. It is not a portal for clinical communication, session content, or therapy records.

Please don't share clinical details — diagnoses, session content, medication history — through the website contact form. If you're a current client and need to reach me with something sensitive, use the secure client portal or call directly.

Therapy records (notes, treatment plans, clinical correspondence) are protected health information governed by HIPAA and described in my full Notice of Privacy Practices — a separate document you'll receive when you become a client, and which is available on request.

09

Children's privacy

This website is intended for adults. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this site. If you believe a child has submitted information through the contact form or scheduling tool, please reach out and I will remove it.

10

Updates & contact

Privacy practices evolve. I may update this policy periodically — material changes will be reflected by an updated date at the top of the page.

Questions, concerns, or requests about this policy? Please reach out through the contact form or directly by email. I'll respond personally and promptly.

Reach out through the contact form and I'll respond personally. Whether it's a privacy question, a request to access or correct information, or something else entirely — your message will be read by me, not a bot.
