Data and Privacy Policy
The privacy of your personal information and data is very important to me. I am committed to collecting, using and disclosing personal information responsibly and only to the extent necessary for the services I provide. All information is held in confidence.
what is personal information?
Personal information includes information that relates to:
an individual’s personal characteristics (e.g., gender, age, income, home address or telephone number, ethnic background, family status);
health (e.g., health history, health conditions, health services received by them); activities and views (e.g., opinions expressed by an individual, an opinion or evaluation of an individual).
Personal information is different from business information (e.g., an individual’s business address and telephone number). This is not protected by privacy legislation.
why do i need your personal information?
Like all health care professionals, I collect, use and disclose personal information in order to serve my clients. The primary purpose for collecting personal information is to provide treatment. A secondary purpose might be to invoice clients, to process payments or to collect on unpaid accounts.

If you have a concern about the professionalism or competence of the services offered, I invite you to email me directly at mreadsmith@gmail.com .
