We collect information you provide directly when you create an account, complete a therapist profile, or contact us. This may include your name, email address, password, practice details, licensure information, session preferences, NPI number, and any other information you choose to submit.

We also collect technical and usage information needed to operate the service, such as authentication and session data. If analytics is enabled for the site, we may also collect pageview and product usage information to understand how the service is used and to improve it.

We use information to create and manage accounts, authenticate users, review therapist submissions, operate provider profiles, communicate with users, and maintain the reliability and security of the platform.

We may also use information to monitor site performance, investigate misuse, respond to support requests, and improve our product offering.

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that help us run the platform, such as infrastructure, authentication, analytics, and email delivery providers, but only as needed to provide the service.

Therapist profile information that you choose to publish or make available through OpenShrinks may be visible to users or surfaced through integrations connected to the platform.

We keep information for as long as needed to operate the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.

You can request updates to your account information by signing in and editing your profile where that functionality is available. You may also contact us if you would like to ask about access, correction, or deletion of your information.

If analytics tools are enabled, your browser settings or applicable privacy controls may affect how those tools operate.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

OpenShrinks is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this site.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the last updated date on this page. Your continued use of the service after an update becomes effective means the updated policy will apply going forward.
