This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information, including your personal health information (PHI).
​
Information We Collect
We collect information that you provide to us directly, such as your name, contact details, and health history, as well as information we collect through our services, like consultation findings and treatment outcomes.
​
Use of Your Information
Your information is used to provide you with personalized hair restoration services, communicate with you about your treatment, process payments, and improve our services. We may also use your information for legal, safety, and administrative reasons.
​
Disclosure of Your Information
We may disclose your information to healthcare providers, payment processors, and legal authorities as required by law and within the bounds of HIPAA. We ensure that all third parties are contractually obliged to protect your information and use it only for the purposes for which it was disclosed.
​
Your Rights Over Your Information
Under HIPAA, you have rights over your PHI, including the right to access, correct, and request a restriction on the use and disclosure of your information.
​
Data Security
We implement robust security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, and disclosure. This includes encryption, access controls, and secure storage practices. However, please be aware that no security measures are entirely infallible.

Your payment information is used only for the transaction at hand and is immediately discarded once the purchase is completed, ensuring your financial security and privacy. Please review our Data Retention policy for more information on how long we keep your data. We are dedicated to ensuring a secure and private shopping experience for all our products and services, with a steadfast commitment to not retaining sensitive payment information beyond the necessary transaction period.
