Wildflower Midwifery & Fertility
Effective Date: 12/29/2025
Website: https://wildflowermidwiferyandfertility.com/
1. Introduction
Wildflower Midwifery & Fertility (“we,” “us,” “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you visit our website and how we handle protected health information (PHI) collected through our midwifery and fertility practice.
This policy applies to information collected through the website and through our clinical services. It does not create contractual rights beyond those required by applicable law.
2. Information We Collect on the Website
We may collect the following information when you interact with the website:
a. Personal Identifiable Information (PII)
If you voluntarily submit information (for example, through a contact form or email link), we may collect:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Message content
You should not submit sensitive medical or health information through the website, as it is not intended for clinical communications.
b. Automatically Collected Information
We may automatically collect general technical information such as browser type, IP address, referring pages, and pages visited to help us understand how the website is used and to improve its functionality.
c. Cookies and Tracking
The website may use cookies or similar technologies to enhance user experience. You may disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may limit certain features.
3. How We Use Website Information
Information submitted through the website may be used for purposes such as:
- Delivering requested services or responding to inquiries
- Communicating with you for customer service or administrative purposes
- Short-term operational or transactional use directly related to your request
- Improving website content, performance, and user experience
- We do not sell, rent, or lease website-collected personal information to third parties.
4. Website Communications and Security Limitations
While we take reasonable steps to safeguard information submitted through the website, the website and standard email communications are not designed to meet HIPAA security standards.
You should not expect the same level of privacy or security for information submitted through the website as you would through our secure patient intake systems or formal clinical records. Submission of information through the website is done at your own discretion and risk.
Sensitive health information should only be shared through secure channels provided once you become a patient.
5. Medical Information Collected Through Our Practice
As a health care provider, we collect and maintain medical records and PHI in accordance with applicable law. PHI includes information about your health status, medical history, treatments, and care plans.
PHI is generally not collected through this website. Medical intake and clinical communications occur through secure systems once you establish care with us.
We are required under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) to maintain the privacy of your medical information and to provide you with a Notice of Privacy Practices describing how we may use and disclose your PHI and your rights regarding that information.
6. How We Use and Disclose Medical Information
We may use and disclose PHI for:
- Treatment: Providing and coordinating your care
- Payment: Billing and reimbursement activities
- Health Care Operations: Quality assurance, compliance, and administrative functions
Legal Requirements: When required by law or public health authorities
Any other use or disclosure of PHI will occur only with your written authorization or as otherwise permitted by law.
7. Your Rights Regarding Medical Information
Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:
- Access and obtain copies of your health records
- Request corrections to your PHI
- Request limits on certain uses or disclosures
- Request confidential communications
- Receive an accounting of disclosures
- File a complaint if you believe your privacy rights have been violated
Please contact us for details on how to exercise these rights.
8. Website Security
We use reasonable technical and administrative measures to protect website information. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
