Overview
This policy describes how Union Square Psychotherapy (“we,” “us,” “our”) handles information collected through this website (usqtherapy.org). It does not govern the handling of patient health information, which is subject to HIPAA and the terms of our Notice of Privacy Practices provided at the start of treatment.
Information we collect
Usage data via Google Analytics (GA4). When you visit this site, Google Analytics collects anonymized information about how you navigate it — pages visited, approximate location (city level), device type, and referring source. We have configured GA4 with IP anonymization enabled and have disabled Google Signals and ad personalization. We do not use this data to identify you personally.
Intake scheduling via Acuity Scheduling. When you schedule an intake consultation, you are directed to a form hosted by Acuity Scheduling (a Squarespace product). Information you provide there is governed by Squarespace’s Privacy Policy. We maintain a Business Associate Agreement with Acuity Scheduling as required under HIPAA.
Direct contact. If you contact a clinician directly via email or phone, any information you share is treated as confidential and handled in accordance with our professional and legal obligations.
Cookies
This site uses cookies set by Google Analytics to distinguish repeat visitors and track session activity. These cookies do not contain personally identifiable information. You may disable cookies in your browser settings at any time, which will prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visit.
