PRIVACY POLICY
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Jenny Stepp Professional Counseling ("I," "me," or "my practice") collects, uses, and handles information gathered through this website (lvcounselor.com). I am committed to protecting your privacy and handling any information you share with me responsibly and with care.
Please note: this website is informational in nature. It does not function as a patient portal and does not collect, store, or transmit protected health information (PHI). Any clinical records and communications related to therapy services are managed separately in accordance with HIPAA.
Information I Collect
When you visit this website, the following types of information may be collected:
- Information you provide voluntarily — If you contact me through a contact form, email, or phone number listed on this site, I receive the information you choose to share, such as your name, email address, phone number, and the content of your message. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry.
- Automatically collected information — This website is hosted by IONOS. As part of standard website hosting, IONOS collects anonymized technical data about site visits using their SiteAnalytics tool. This includes general information such as pages visited and browser type. IONOS anonymizes IP addresses immediately upon collection and does not store personally identifiable information about visitors. I do not have access to individual visitor data through this tool.
- Cookies — This website uses technically necessary cookies to support basic site functionality. IONOS My Website Creator also uses cookies based on Snowplow Analytics technology to improve their product. These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information. No third-party advertising or marketing cookies are used on this site.
How I Use Your Information
Information you voluntarily submit through this website is used only to:
- Respond to your inquiry or consultation request
- Provide you with information about my services
I do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.
Nevada Privacy Rights (SB 220)
In accordance with Nevada Senate Bill 220, Nevada residents have the right to request that I not sell their personal information. I do not sell personal information collected through this website to any third party. If you have questions or wish to submit a request regarding your personal information, you may contact me directly at jenny@lvcounselor.com.
Third-Party Services
This website does not use Google Analytics or any third-party advertising networks. My website is hosted by IONOS, whose privacy practices are governed by their own privacy policy, available at ionos.com. If you choose to schedule a consultation or enter into a therapeutic relationship with me, any communications and records related to your care are handled through a separate, HIPAA-compliant platform and are governed by the Notice of Privacy Practices you receive as a client, not by this website privacy policy.
Data Security
I take reasonable precautions to protect information submitted through this website. This site uses SSL encryption (the padlock in your browser bar), which protects data transmitted between your browser and the site. However, no method of internet transmission is 100% secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children's Privacy
This website is not directed at children under the age of 18 and does not knowingly collect information from children. My therapy services are available to adults only.
Changes to This Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When I do, I will update the effective date at the bottom of this page. I encourage you to review this policy periodically.
