Privacy Policy
Kelner Periodontics LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and share information through www.kelnerperio.com and our related email and text messaging communications.
Patient Health Information
Our use and disclosure of protected health information is governed by applicable law and our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices. That notice explains our responsibilities and your rights regarding your health information. This website Privacy Policy supplements, but does not replace, that notice.
Information We Collect
We collect information you provide when you contact our office, submit an inquiry, request an appointment, or communicate with us by email or text. This may include your name, email address, telephone number, the contents of your communications, and records of your communication preferences and consent.
Our website uses Squarespace, Google Analytics, and Google Ads. These services may collect information such as your IP address, browser and device information, pages visited, referring websites, and interactions with our website or advertisements through cookies and similar technologies.
Appointment scheduling, payments, and referrals may take place through separate websites linked from our website. Those services may collect additional information needed to fulfill your request.
How We Use Information
We use information to:
Respond to inquiries and communicate with you.
Coordinate appointments and provide patient support.
Operate, maintain, secure, and improve our website.
Understand website traffic and evaluate advertising effectiveness.
Maintain communication preferences and consent records.
Meet applicable legal and recordkeeping obligations.
Website inquiries are directed to our office email for our staff to handle.
We do not currently send promotional emails or text messages. If we introduce these communications, we will provide any required disclosures, obtain any required consent, and offer a way to opt out. Consent to appointment reminders or patient-service messages does not constitute consent to promotional text messages.
Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
Squarespace, Google Analytics, and Google Ads may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, measure traffic, and evaluate advertising performance. Depending on our settings and your choices, Google’s services may also use information for advertising personalization.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain website features.
You can also manage Google advertising preferences at Google My Ad Center and learn about the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
These controls may not prevent all information collection or stop all advertisements.
How Information Is Shared
We do not sell or rent patient contact lists.
Service providers may process information as needed to provide website hosting, email, text messaging, scheduling, payment processing, analytics, advertising, and related support. These providers may include Squarespace, Google, and the providers of services linked from our website.
We may also disclose information when required by law or as legally permitted to protect rights, safety, or security. Any use or disclosure of protected health information remains subject to applicable law and our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.
No mobile opt-in message consent will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes.
We do not share mobile information collected through our text messaging program with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. Providers that support message delivery may process mobile numbers, messages, and consent records only as needed to operate and support our messaging service.
Text Messaging
If you consent to receive text messages from Kelner Periodontics LLC, we may send appointment reminders, scheduling communications, and responses to patient-service inquiries.
Messaging frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to unsubscribe or HELP for help. You may also contact our office at (732) 587-6740.
Consent to text messaging is not a condition of receiving care. For additional information, see our SMS Terms & Conditions.
External Websites
Our website links to external services, including Flex appointment booking, online payment processing, referral forms, and Google services. When you use an external website, its privacy policy and terms may also apply. Please review those policies before submitting information.
Information Security and Retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the information we handle. No website, email system, or text messaging service can guarantee complete security.
Please do not submit Social Security numbers, payment card details, or detailed medical information through general website inquiries or ordinary email or text. Contact our office for instructions on providing sensitive information through an appropriate channel.
We retain information as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy and to meet applicable legal, clinical, and recordkeeping requirements. If notification of a security incident is required, we will provide it in accordance with applicable law.
Your Choices
You may contact us to request an update to your contact information or communication preferences. Requests concerning patient records and protected health information are addressed under our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices and applicable law.
If we offer promotional email communications in the future, you may unsubscribe using the instructions in those messages. Unsubscribing from marketing emails does not necessarily stop appointment, billing, or other patient-service communications. You may separately opt out of text messaging by replying STOP.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. Parents or guardians should contact our office on behalf of minor children. Information provided in connection with a child’s care is handled under applicable law and our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.
