Website Privacy Policy
Thank you for visiting adhealthcare.com (the “Website”), the website for Advanced Diagnostics Healthcare System (“ADHS”). This Website Privacy Policy explains how ADHS handles information in connection with the Website. This Website Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through the Website (if any) and does not replace any separate Notice of Privacy Practices (“NPP”) provided under HIPAA for patient health information.
At this time, the Website is primarily informational. ADHS does not require you to create an account, and we do not intentionally collect personal information through the Website, such as through online registration, scheduling, chat, or similar features. You may browse the Website without providing personal information. If you choose to contact ADHS by phone, email, or other channels outside the Website, we may receive the information you provide in order to respond to your request. PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT SENSITIVE OR MEDICAL INFORMATION THROUGH THE WEBSITE.
What Kinds Of Personal Information Do We collect?
If you voluntarily provide information to ADHS outside the Website (for example, by email or telephone), that information may include your name, contact information (such as phone number or email address), and the content of your message. ADHS DOES NOT REQUEST THAT YOU SUBMIT SYMPTOMS, MEDICAL CONDITIONS, OR OTHER PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION (“PHI”) THROUGH THE WEBSITE.
How Do We Use The Information We Collect?
If ADHS receives information from you outside the Website (for example, by email or telephone), we may use it to respond to your inquiry, provide requested information, and, where applicable, help facilitate services you request. We may also use or disclose information as required by law.
For information about how ADHS uses and discloses protected health information, please refer to ADHS’s Notice of Privacy Practices (“NPP”) provided under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”).
Cookies
At this time, the Website does not use cookies or similar tracking technologies for advertising or analytics, and we do not place cookies on your device for tracking purposes. If ADHS adds cookies, analytics, or similar technologies in the future, we will update this Website Privacy Policy.
How Do we Protect Personal Information?
Because the Website is informational and does not require online account registration at this time, ADHS does not request you submit sensitive personal information through the Website. If you choose to communicate with ADHS by email or other methods, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Do We Disclose Personal Information to Third Parties?
ADHS does not sell personal information collected through the Website (if any). We may share information with service providers who perform services on our behalf (for example, IT or website hosting vendors), but only as needed to provide services to ADHS. We may also disclose information as required by law, to respond to lawful requests, to protect rights and safety, or to address fraud or security issues.
What About Your Health Information?
If you are a patient, ADHS’s use and disclosure of your protected health information is governed by HIPAA and ADHS’s Notice of Privacy Practices (“NPP”). This Website Privacy Policy does not apply to protected health information handled in accordance with the NPP.
Do We Collect Personal Information About Children?
This website is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information about children. If you believe that a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us immediately at (713) 848-4700 and we will remove any personal information that we can identify. Parents, guardians, or anyone with legal custody of a child may contact ADHS directly (outside the Website) regarding services for a child.
"Do Not Track" Signals under California Online Privacy Protection Act (CALOPPA)
The Website does not use cookies or other tracking technologies for behavioral advertising or analytics at this time. Because we do not track users in this way, we do not respond to “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. If we implement tracking technologies in the future, we will update this policy.
Analytics
We use a self-hosted analytics solution to understand and improve how our website is used. This tool is configured to protect your privacy, it does not use cookies and collects only limited usage information (such as pages visited, referrer, and general device/browser information) in an anonymized and/or aggregated form. We do not use this analytics information to identify you, and we do not sell analytics data. The IP address is used only to derive location metrics and is not stored. We do not attempt to link analytics data to your identity, and we do not use analytics for advertising or cross-site tracking.
Spyware
We value your privacy. This website does not use any spyware or any software that can gather information about you without your knowledge and consent and that may send such information to another entity without the consumer's consent.

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time, without notice except for the posting of the revised policy on this page. Any changes will be effective upon posting, and will apply only to information collected after the posting date.
