1. Introduction

Therapy Scout Pro (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website https://therapyscout.pro/ (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our directory to connect with mental health professionals.

By using our website, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect two general categories of information:

A. Information from Therapists

  • Profile Information: Name, business name, credentials, license details, professional bio, areas of practice, and contact information submitted for directory listings.
  • Payment Information: Payment method and billing details for directory listing fees. (Note: payments are processed securely through our payment processor; we do not store full credit card numbers.)
  • Account Information: Login credentials and preferences.

B. Information from Therapy Seekers

  • Basic Interaction Data: Pages visited, searches performed, and contact forms submitted to therapists.
  • Technical Data: Browser type, device, IP address, and cookies (used for functionality and analytics).

We do not collect sensitive health information through this site.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Create and display therapist listings.
  • Process payments for listing services.
  • Respond to inquiries or support requests.
  • Maintain and improve our website’s functionality and user experience.
  • Send service-related updates and, with consent, occasional promotional information.

If we introduce SMS/text messaging in the future, we will first obtain your express written consent before sending any text messages.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site secure, understand how visitors use it, and remember preferences. You can manage cookie settings through your browser at any time.

5. How We Disclose Information

We may disclose information only as needed to operate our website and provide services. For example, to secure payment processors, web hosting providers, or email platforms that help us communicate with you.

These providers are required to keep your information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we’ve engaged them.

We do not sell, rent, or share personal information for marketing purposes.

6. Your Privacy Rights (U.S. and State Laws)

Depending on your state of residence (such as California), you may have rights to:

  • Learn about the personal information we collect and how it’s used.
  • Request access to your personal information.
  • Ask that we delete personal information we hold about you.
  • Opt out of having your information used for promotional purposes.

You can make these requests by contacting us at therapyscoutpromanager@therapyscout.org.

7. Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously and implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect it. However, no method of online transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we learn that we have inadvertently done so, we will promptly delete that information.

9. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy periodically. When we do, we’ll update the “Effective Date” at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy regularly.
