This Privacy Policy explains how TreatmentLedger (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit treatmentledger.com (the “Site”).
Who We Are
TreatmentLedger is a website that publishes informational content about medical treatment costs. Our website address is https://treatmentledger.com. If you have questions about this policy, you can contact us at admin@treatmentledger.com.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
- Contact form. When you use our Contact Us page, we collect the name, email address, subject, and message you submit, so we can respond to your inquiry.
- Comments. When you leave a comment on an article, we collect the content of your comment, your name and email address (if provided), your IP address, and your browser user agent string, which helps us detect spam. If you use an email address associated with Gravatar, an anonymized hash of that email may be checked against the Gravatar service to display your profile picture; the Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once a comment is approved, your name and any public profile picture appear alongside it.
Information Collected Automatically
- Analytics. We use Google Analytics (via Google Site Kit) to understand how visitors use our Site — for example, which pages are viewed, how long visitors stay, and which device or browser they use. This data is collected in aggregate and does not directly identify you. You can learn more about Google’s data practices at https://policies.google.com/privacy, and you can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- Advertising. This Site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense and its advertising partners. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites, and to measure ad performance. You can learn more about how Google uses this data at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads, and you can manage your ad personalization settings at https://adssettings.google.com. Third-party vendors, including Google, may also use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
- Cookies. We use a cookie consent tool that lets you choose which categories of cookies to allow:
- Necessary cookies — required for basic site functionality, such as remembering your cookie preferences.
- Functional cookies — support features like sharing content on social media.
- Analytical cookies — help us understand site traffic and visitor behavior (see Analytics above).
- Advertisement cookies — used by Google AdSense and advertising partners to deliver and measure personalized ads (see Advertising above).
Media
If you upload images to this website (for example, as part of a comment), you should avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can view and extract location data from images.
Embedded Content
Articles on this Site may include embedded content from other websites (such as videos or images). Embedded content behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the source website directly, and that website may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
How Long We Retain Data
- Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve legitimate follow-up comments.
- Contact form submissions are retained only as long as needed to respond to and resolve your inquiry, and are periodically deleted thereafter.
- Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics’ standard retention settings.
Your Rights Over Your Data
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal data we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at admin@treatmentledger.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law (including GDPR for visitors in the EU/UK and CCPA for California residents, where applicable).
Children’s Privacy
This Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Comments and contact form submissions may be checked through an automated spam-detection service. If you request a password reset (for registered accounts, if applicable), your IP address is included in the reset email. Advertising and analytics data may be processed by Google and its partners outside your country of residence, in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
