Privacy policy.
Last Updated: October 2026
Danielle Garcia (“I,” “me,” or “my”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, shared, and protected when you visit this website, contact me, request a consultation, or use my services.
By using this website or providing information through it, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information I Collect
I may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you contact me, submit an inquiry, request a consultation, or communicate with me regarding my services.
This may include:
Your name
Email address
Telephone number
Business or practice name
The type of support you are interested in
Information you include in a contact or consultation request
Information you provide in subsequent communications
Other information reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry or provide requested services
My website and the service providers that support it may also automatically collect certain technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring website, and information collected through cookies or similar technologies.
2. How I Use Your Information
I may use information I collect to:
Respond to questions and inquiries
Schedule and conduct consultations
Communicate with prospective and current clients
Provide and administer requested services
Maintain appropriate business records
Operate, maintain, secure, and improve my website
Understand how visitors interact with my website
Prevent fraud, misuse, or security issues
Comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations
I do not sell personal information for money.
3. Sensitive Health and Insurance Information
Because my services may involve healthcare insurance and administrative matters, certain services may eventually require access to sensitive information.
However, my general website contact form is not intended for the submission of protected health information (“PHI”), medical records, Social Security numbers, insurance identification or member numbers, financial account information, or other sensitive medical, insurance, or financial information.
Please do not submit this type of information through the general website contact form.
If you become a client and sensitive information is reasonably necessary for the services being provided, I will provide instructions regarding an appropriate method for sharing that information.
4. Healthcare Practice Services and HIPAA
I may provide insurance and administrative support to healthcare and wellness practices, including acupuncture, chiropractic, holistic wellness, and similar practices.
Depending on the nature of the services provided, I may receive or access information relating to a practice's patients.
If a particular client relationship makes me a “business associate” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), the handling of protected health information will also be governed by applicable law and any required Business Associate Agreement (“BAA”) between me and the healthcare practice.
A BAA, when applicable, is separate from this website Privacy Policy and establishes additional terms regarding the use, disclosure, and safeguarding of PHI in connection with services provided to that practice.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to replace or modify the terms of an applicable BAA.
5. Individual Health Insurance Support
I may provide administrative support to individuals who want help understanding or navigating their health insurance.
Information an individual provides in connection with these services may be used as reasonably necessary to provide the requested support, communicate with the individual, maintain appropriate records, and comply with applicable obligations.
My services are administrative and educational in nature and are not a substitute for medical, legal, financial, or other licensed professional advice. I do not make medical decisions or guarantee coverage, reimbursement, claim approval, benefit eligibility, or any particular outcome from an insurance carrier or health plan.
Please do not submit sensitive medical or insurance information through my general website contact form.
6. How Information May Be Shared
I may use third-party service providers to help operate my website and business. Depending on the services I use, these providers may assist with functions such as:
Website hosting
Contact forms
Email and communications
Scheduling
Payment processing
File storage
Website analytics
Other administrative or technology services
These providers may process information as necessary to perform services on my behalf and are subject to their own agreements, privacy practices, and legal obligations.
I may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or legal process; protect my rights, property, or safety or those of others; investigate fraud or security concerns; or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
When PHI is received in my capacity as a HIPAA business associate, its use and disclosure will also be governed by applicable law and the applicable BAA.
7. Squarespace and Third-Party Services
This website is hosted through Squarespace. Squarespace may process certain information about website visitors in connection with hosting, security, analytics, cookies, and other website functionality.
Additional third-party services may be added or changed as my business develops, including services for scheduling, payments, communications, analytics, or secure document sharing.
The collection and processing of information by third-party providers may also be subject to their respective privacy policies and terms.
8. Cookies and Analytics
This website may use cookies and similar technologies that help the website function, remember preferences, understand website traffic, and provide information about how visitors use the site.
Some cookies may be placed by Squarespace or other service providers used in connection with the website.
Depending on your browser and the features available on this website, you may be able to manage or disable certain cookies through your browser settings or available cookie-management tools. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.
9. Data Security
I take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to the nature of the information I handle to help protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no website, email system, electronic transmission, or information-storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
For this reason, please do not send sensitive medical, insurance, financial, or other confidential information through the general website contact form or another communication method unless I have indicated that it is appropriate for that information.
10. Data Retention
I may retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including providing services, maintaining business and transaction records, responding to inquiries, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and satisfying applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
The amount of time information is retained may vary depending on the type of information, the nature of the client relationship, and applicable requirements.
11. Third-Party Links
This website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.
I am not responsible for the privacy, security, availability, or content practices of third-party websites or services. When you leave my website, I encourage you to review the privacy practices of the website or service you are visiting.
12. California Privacy Rights
California residents may have certain rights concerning their personal information under applicable California privacy laws.
The specific rights available depend on the law applicable to the information and to my business. Where applicable, these rights may include requesting access to certain personal information, requesting correction or deletion of certain personal information, obtaining information about certain collection or disclosure practices, or exercising other rights provided by law.
Not every California privacy law or privacy right applies to every business, individual, or type of information.
If you would like to submit a privacy-related request, you may contact me using the email address provided below. I may need to take reasonable steps to verify your identity before processing a request.
I will not unlawfully discriminate against an individual for exercising an applicable privacy right.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in my website, services, business practices, technology, or applicable requirements.
When this Privacy Policy is updated, the “Last Updated” date at the top of the page will be revised.
I encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
