Health Information and HIPAA

Certain information collected or maintained by Jersey Shore TRT in connection with providing healthcare services may constitute protected health information (“PHI”) under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and other applicable federal and state privacy laws.

When information is subject to HIPAA, Jersey Shore TRT handles that information in accordance with applicable HIPAA requirements and our Notice of Privacy Practices.

Not all information collected through our general website or online marketing activities necessarily constitutes PHI under HIPAA. This Privacy Policy describes our general website and online privacy practices and does not replace our Notice of Privacy Practices.

Please avoid submitting highly sensitive medical information through a general website contact form unless the form is specifically designated for that purpose. Current patients should use communication methods designated by Jersey Shore TRT for healthcare-related communications when appropriate.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may disclose personal information when reasonably necessary to operate our business, provide services, respond to your requests, or comply with applicable law.

This may include disclosures to service providers or vendors that assist us with services such as:

  • Website hosting and maintenance

  • Customer relationship management

  • Appointment scheduling

  • Patient communication

  • Electronic health record or practice management services

  • Payment processing

  • Information technology and cybersecurity

  • Website analytics

  • Email and text message delivery

  • Professional, administrative, or operational services

When appropriate and permitted by law, information may also be shared with healthcare-related entities involved in providing or coordinating your care, such as laboratories, pharmacies, healthcare providers, or other entities involved in your treatment or services.

We may also disclose information when required by law, regulation, legal process, court order, or governmental request, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property, safety, or security of Jersey Shore TRT, our patients, website users, or others.

When PHI is involved, disclosures are governed by applicable healthcare privacy laws and our Notice of Privacy Practices.

SMS and Mobile Information

If you provide your mobile telephone number and consent to receive text messages from Jersey Shore TRT, we may use your number to communicate with you regarding inquiries, consultations, appointments, services, and other communications for which you have provided consent.

Consent to receive marketing text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services. Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply.

You may opt out of applicable text message communications at any time by replying STOP. You may reply HELP for assistance.

Mobile information and text messaging consent will not be sold or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may share information with service providers that assist us in delivering communications and operating our services, subject to appropriate restrictions and applicable law.

Opting out of marketing text messages does not necessarily prevent us from contacting you when otherwise permitted or required for healthcare, administrative, transactional, or other non-marketing purposes.

Email Communications

If you provide your email address, we may use it to respond to inquiries, provide requested information, communicate regarding appointments or services, and send other communications for which you have provided consent or that are otherwise permitted by law.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe instructions included in those communications, when applicable.

Ordinary email may have privacy and security limitations. Sensitive medical information should generally be communicated using methods designated by Jersey Shore TRT for healthcare-related communications.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand how visitors interact with the website, improve functionality, maintain security, and support website analytics.

Cookies are small data files stored on your device or browser. Some cookies are necessary for website functionality, while others may help us understand website usage and performance.

You can generally control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or performance of portions of the website.

Analytics and Third-Party Technologies

We may use third-party services to help operate, maintain, analyze, and improve our website. These services may collect information such as IP addresses, device information, browser information, referring pages, pages visited, and interactions with our website.

We seek to use these technologies in a manner appropriate for a healthcare-related website and consistent with applicable privacy requirements.

We do not intend to disclose PHI to advertising or analytics providers in a manner prohibited by applicable law.

Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services, including patient portals, scheduling services, payment services, maps, videos, social media platforms, or other external resources.

When you interact with a third-party website or service, that third party may collect information according to its own privacy practices and policies.

Jersey Shore TRT is not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or practices of third-party websites or services that we do not control. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing personal information to them.

Information Security

Jersey Shore TRT uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or loss.

Where applicable, additional safeguards are used for information subject to healthcare privacy and security requirements.

However, no website, electronic transmission, communication method, or information storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted electronically.

Data Retention

We may retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, provide services, operate our business, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain appropriate records.

Medical records and other healthcare information may be subject to specific retention requirements under federal or New Jersey law and may therefore be retained even if an individual requests deletion.

Your Privacy Choices

You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information you have provided to us.

We will consider and respond to appropriate requests in accordance with applicable law. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

Some information may not be eligible for deletion or modification because of legal, regulatory, healthcare, recordkeeping, security, or legitimate business requirements.

You may also manage certain communications by:

  • Replying STOP to applicable text messages

  • Using the unsubscribe option provided in applicable marketing emails

  • Adjusting cookie settings through your browser or other available website controls

These choices do not affect our ability to retain or use information when required or otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Children's Privacy

Our general website and services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through our general website without appropriate authorization.

If we become aware that personal information from a child under 13 has been collected through our website inappropriately, we will take reasonable steps to address the information in accordance with applicable law.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our services, business practices, technology, or legal and regulatory requirements.

When we make changes, the updated Privacy Policy will be posted on this website and the “Last Updated” date will be revised. Unless otherwise stated, changes become effective when the updated Privacy Policy is posted.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
