Appointment Requests and Online Forms
Submitting an appointment request through our website does not create a doctor-patient relationship and does not guarantee an appointment.
Information submitted through an online appointment form may be transmitted to our office or to a third-party scheduling or practice-management provider that assists us in processing your request.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, do not use our website or online forms. Call 911 or seek appropriate emergency medical care.

If you provide your email address or mobile telephone number, we may use it to respond to your request or communicate with you regarding our services or appointments.
Standard email and SMS text messaging may not always be secure. Please do not send highly sensitive health, financial, or personal information through unsecured email or text messages.
If you opt in to receive promotional emails or text communications, you may withdraw your consent as provided in those communications. Consent to receive marketing communications is not a condition of receiving healthcare services.
Message and data rates may apply to SMS communications depending on your mobile service provider.

Scheduling providers
Practice-management systems
Communications providers
Analytics providers
Information technology and cybersecurity providers
Payment processors
Professional advisors
These parties may receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services and are expected to handle information in accordance with applicable contractual and legal requirements.
We may also disclose information if reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, legal process, governmental requests, protect legal rights, prevent fraud or security threats, or protect the safety of individuals.
Protected health information is handled according to our Notice of Privacy Practices and applicable healthcare privacy laws.
Third-Party Websites and Services
Our website may contain links to websites, maps, review platforms, social media sites, scheduling systems, payment providers, or other services operated by third parties.
Discover Chiropractic does not control the privacy practices of independent third-party websites. When you leave our website or interact directly with a third-party service, that company's privacy policy may apply.
We encourage you to review the privacy practices of websites and services you use.
Google, Social Media, and Analytics
We may maintain profiles or advertisements on third-party platforms such as Google, Facebook, Instagram, or similar services.
Your interaction with those platforms is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. Information you publicly post on social media may be visible to others and should not be considered private communication with Discover Chiropractic.
Our use of advertising and analytics technologies may change over time as our website and marketing systems evolve.
Children's Privacy
Our chiropractic office may provide healthcare services to children with the involvement and authorization of a parent or legal guardian. However, our website is intended primarily for adults and is not designed to independently collect personal information online from children.
Parents and guardians should submit appointment requests and other online information on behalf of minors.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no website, email system, wireless transmission, or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should use care when sending personal information electronically.
Data Retention
We may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal and regulatory requirements, maintain business and healthcare records, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
Medical record retention is governed separately by applicable healthcare laws and our records-management practices.

If there is a conflict between this website Privacy Policy and our Notice of Privacy Practices regarding protected health information, the Notice of Privacy Practices and applicable law will govern.
