Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 29, 2026

MindClimb Therapy & Consulting PLLC, doing business as MindClimb Therapy (“I,” “my,” or “the practice”), is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you visit my website, https://www.mindclimbtherapy.com (the “Site”). By using this Site, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through this website. It does not apply to information collected offline, during therapy sessions, or through any secure client portal, telehealth platform, or electronic health record system. If you become a therapy client, you will receive separate documents governing the privacy of your mental health information.

1. Information I Collect

I may collect the following types of information when you visit or interact with the Site:

If you use the contact form, your message is delivered to my practice through a form service, described in Section 5.

Important: The Site is not intended for sharing Protected Health Information (PHI). Please avoid including sensitive medical or clinical details in email or in the contact form, and keep in mind that standard email is not a secure way to send private information. PHI shared during therapy is protected separately under HIPAA.

When you visit the Site, certain technical information is processed automatically by the services that deliver it, such as:

This information is used to deliver the Site, keep it secure, and keep it working properly.

2. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

This Site does not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or analytics tools. If I add any in the future, I will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent.

To display the Site’s typefaces, your browser loads fonts from Google Fonts, so Google receives your IP address and basic browser information when you visit. You can read Google’s privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

3. How I Use Your Information

4. How I Protect Your Information

I take reasonable administrative and technical measures to safeguard the information submitted through the Site. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

This website is not intended for sharing Protected Health Information (PHI). PHI shared in the context of therapy is handled separately and securely in accordance with HIPAA regulations through my clinical systems and procedures.

5. Third-Party Disclosure

I do not sell or share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes. However, I use third-party service providers to help operate the Site, including:

  • Website hosting and delivery (Cloudflare)
  • Typeface delivery (Google Fonts)
  • Email and contact form services used to receive messages sent through the Site and to the address listed on it

These providers receive information only as necessary to perform their services.

6. External Links

This Site contains links to third-party websites, such as the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) No Surprises Act website and my profiles on Psychology Today, Facebook, and LinkedIn. I am not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of those sites. Please review their privacy policies before providing any information.

7. Children’s Privacy

This Site is not intended for children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If I learn that a child has submitted information, I will delete it promptly.

8. State-Specific Privacy Rights

Depending on your state of residence, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

  • The right to request access to the data I store
