Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 1-31-2020
Last Updated: 10-19-2026

At Augusta Acupuncture Clinic, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website, fill out forms, or communicate with us via SMS or other channels.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect personal information from you when you:

  • Fill out a form on our website or landing page

  • Schedule an appointment

  • Sign up for text messages or email communication

  • Interact with us via social media, phone, or in-person

This information may include:

  • Full Name

  • Email Address

  • Phone Number

  • Health-related information you voluntarily share (for consultation purposes)

  • Appointment preferences

  • IP address and browser data (for website analytics)

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Schedule and confirm your appointments

  • Send you relevant updates via SMS or email

  • Provide you with educational content or offers

  • Improve the quality of our services and customer experience

  • Comply with legal or regulatory obligations

3. SMS/Text Messaging Consent

Augusta Acupuncture Clinic Customer Care SMS: When you opt in, Augusta Acupuncture Clinic may send conversational messages about customer care, scheduling, appointment confirmations, reminders, and rescheduling. Our GoTo customer-care messaging program does not send marketing or promotional texts.

Providing a phone number alone does not enroll you in text messaging. Consent applies to the message types you agree to receive. If you text us first, our reply will address your question or request. Promotional texts through any separate marketing program require a separate, explicit opt-in; consent to customer-care texts is not consent to promotional texts. Consent to receive texts is not a condition of purchasing services.

Message frequency varies based on your conversation and appointment schedule. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance. You may also contact Augusta Acupuncture Clinic at 706-888-0707 or health@augustaacupunctureclinic.com for help or to withdraw consent.

See our SMS terms and conditions for additional information.

4. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. Your data may only be shared with:

  • Trusted service providers who help us operate our website and services

  • Government agencies or legal entities when required by law

All partners and vendors are required to maintain the confidentiality and security of your data.

Mobile information and SMS consent: We do not sell, rent, or share mobile numbers, SMS opt-in data, or consent with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. SMS opt-in data and consent are excluded from the general information-sharing categories above and are not transferred to external organizations for their own use. Necessary access by our SMS delivery providers is limited to delivering messages on our behalf; it does not authorize their own marketing or unrelated use. This does not limit disclosures required by law.

5. Data Security

We implement a range of administrative and technical security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.

6. Your Rights and Choices

You have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you

  • Correct inaccuracies in your information

  • Withdraw consent at any time by contacting us or replying STOP to text messages

  • Request that we delete your personal data, subject to legal obligations

7. Cookies & Analytics

Our website may use cookies and third-party tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to improve performance and monitor website traffic. You may disable cookies through your browser settings.
