Privacy Policy
Puget Sound Mental Healthcare, PLLC · Last updated June 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what information Puget Sound Mental Healthcare, PLLC ("we," "us," or "the practice") collects through this website and our general business communications, how we use it, and the choices you have. It does not govern the confidentiality of your treatment records; see the note on health information below.
Information we collect
We collect only the information needed to respond to you, schedule care, and run the practice:
- Contact details you provide, such as your name, email address, and phone number, when you reach out, book an appointment, or complete intake.
- Scheduling information when you book through our online scheduling tool.
- Payment information when you pay for services. Payments are processed by our payment provider; we do not see or store your full card number.
This website does not use advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not sell your information to anyone.
How we use your information
- To respond to inquiries and communicate with you about your care.
- To schedule, confirm, and remind you of appointments.
- To provide and bill for services.
- To meet legal, regulatory, and professional obligations.
How we share information
We do not sell or rent your information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate the practice (for example, our scheduling, email, and payment providers), each under an agreement that protects your information, and only as required or permitted by law.
Data security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to protect your information consistent with our legal and professional duties.
Your health information is covered separately
Protected health information created or received in the course of treatment is governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices (NPP), which you receive at intake, and by federal and Washington State law. That Notice, not this website policy, controls how your clinical and treatment information is used and disclosed.
