Pages visited;
Referring advertisements;

Cookies are small files or identifiers stored on a browser or device.

We may use the following categories of cookies:

Essential cookies

Where required by law, analytics and advertising technologies will be activated only after you provide the required consent.

11. Other Parties to Whom We Disclose Information

We may disclose information to the following categories of recipients.

Participating dental providers

We disclose or sell consultation inquiries to participating dentists, dental specialists, dental offices, and related providers.

Technology and operational providers

We may use companies that provide:

Website hosting;
Form processing;
Database management;
Customer-relationship management;
Email delivery;
Telephone and text services;
Call tracking;
Appointment scheduling;
Analytics;
Advertising;
Fraud prevention;
Cloud storage;
Cybersecurity; and
Technical support.

Professional advisers

We may disclose information to attorneys, accountants, insurers, auditors, consultants, or other professional advisers when reasonably necessary.

Business transactions

Information may be transferred in connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, sale of assets, or transfer of the Site or business.

We may disclose information when you ask or authorize us to do so.

12. Independent Providers

Dentists and dental offices receiving inquiries are independent businesses.

After information is transferred to a provider, the provider may:

Contact you;
Collect additional information;
Create a prospective-patient record;
Conduct an examination;
Make treatment recommendations;
Offer financing; or
Establish a dentist-patient relationship.

The provider’s own privacy policy and, when applicable, Notice of Privacy Practices will govern its subsequent handling of information.

We do not control an independent provider’s privacy, security, treatment, billing, or recordkeeping practices.

13. HIPAA

ChicagoILDentalImplants.com is a referral and lead-generation website, not a dental provider.

Our possession of health-related inquiry information does not necessarily mean that we are a HIPAA-covered entity or business associate.

Do not assume that information submitted to the Site is protected in the same manner as information provided directly to a dentist under a dentist-patient relationship.

If a participating provider accepts you as a patient, that provider may have separate obligations under HIPAA and other health-privacy laws.

Google states that Google Analytics does not offer a HIPAA business-associate agreement and that HIPAA-regulated entities must not expose protected health information to Analytics.

14. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to:

Process and distribute inquiries;
Document consent;
Prevent duplicate or fraudulent leads;
Maintain provider records;
Resolve complaints;
Measure marketing;
Meet accounting obligations;
Comply with law;
Enforce agreements; and
Protect our legal interests.

Retention periods may vary based on the information and purpose.

We may retain:

Lead records for [insert retention period, such as 24 months];
Consent and communication records for [insert period];
Provider and transaction records as required for business, tax, or legal purposes;
Analytics data according to configured platform-retention settings; and
Aggregated or de-identified information for longer periods.

We may delete information earlier when it is no longer reasonably necessary.

15. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect information.

These measures may include:

Access controls;
Password protection;
Encryption in transit;
Limited administrative access;
Software updates;
Backups;
Spam and fraud controls;
Vendor review; and
Security monitoring.

No internet transmission, website, database, email system, or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure.

Illinois law imposes breach-notification duties on businesses handling qualifying personal information when certain security breaches occur.

16. Your Privacy Choices and Requests

Depending on applicable law, you may request that we:

Confirm whether we maintain information about you;
Provide access to certain information;
Correct inaccurate information;
Delete certain information;
Stop promotional communications;
Withdraw cookie consent;
Limit certain processing;
Provide information about disclosure categories;
Opt you out of certain sales or sharing; or
Provide a portable copy of certain information.

To submit a request, contact us using the information below.

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

Certain information may be retained when necessary for:

Security;
Fraud prevention;
Legal compliance;
Recordkeeping;
Exercising legal rights; or
Completing a transaction you requested.

Because we may receive compensation for transferring consultation requests to participating providers, our lead transfers may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under some privacy laws.

You may request that we stop future sales or sharing by contacting us and stating:

“Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.”

Submitting such a request may prevent us from matching you with a dental provider.

We cannot reverse a disclosure that occurred with your authorization before we received and processed your request. You may need to contact a receiving provider separately regarding information already transferred.

We will also provide a Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link where legally required.

18. Browser Privacy Signals

Some browsers transmit Global Privacy Control or similar opt-out preference signals.

Where required by applicable law and technically supported, we will treat a recognized signal as a request to opt out of covered sales, sharing, or targeted advertising for the browser or device sending the signal.

Because these standards continue to develop, our response may vary based on applicable law and technical capabilities.

19. Email and Text Choices

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the link included in the message.

You may opt out of text messages by replying STOP.

We may still send nonmarketing messages reasonably necessary to:

Respond to your inquiry;
Confirm an opt-out;
Address security issues;
Maintain records; or
Comply with law.

20. Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for adults seeking information about dental services.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13.

A parent or legal guardian may submit an inquiry concerning a minor when authorized to do so.

21. Third-Party Websites

The Site may link to:

Dental-practice websites;
Financing companies;
Insurance resources;
Government licensing databases;
Maps;
Social-media platforms;
Review websites; or
Other third-party services.

We do not control and are not responsible for those parties’ privacy, security, content, or business practices.

Review the privacy policy of each third-party website you visit.

22. Visitors Outside the United States

The Site is operated in the United States and primarily serves Chicago, Illinois, and surrounding areas.

Information may be processed in the United States and in countries where our technology providers operate.

Visitors from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, Switzerland, or other jurisdictions may have additional privacy rights.

Where legally required, we will seek consent before placing nonessential analytics or advertising cookies.

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in:

Our services;
Lead-distribution practices;
Analytics;
Advertising tools;
Technology;
Vendors; or
Legal obligations.
