Who We Are
This website is operated by Airway Dentistry. Our website address is https://airwaydentistrydhs.com. Airway Dentistry is committed to protecting your privacy and handling personal information responsibly, transparently, and respectfully.
Information We Collect
We may collect personal information when you interact with this website, including when you submit contact or appointment request forms, leave comments if enabled, upload media if applicable, or communicate with us electronically. The information collected may include your name, email address, phone number, IP address, browser details, and any information you voluntarily provide. We collect only what is necessary to respond to inquiries, support patient communication, improve website functionality, and maintain site security.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information is used to help detect spam and protect the website. An anonymized string created from your email address, also known as a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After comment approval, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid including embedded location data such as EXIF GPS. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images published on the site.
Cookies
This website uses cookies to support functionality and improve user experience. If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience so you do not have to re-enter details for future comments. These cookies are stored for one year. If you visit a login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. If you log in, cookies are used to save login information and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, screen option cookies last for one year, and selecting “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies. If you edit or publish content, an additional cookie may be stored that contains no personal data and expires after one day. You may disable cookies through your browser settings, though some site features may not function properly as a result.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Articles on this website may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited those websites directly. These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with embedded content, especially if you are logged into those platforms. Airway Dentistry does not control the privacy practices of third-party websites.
How We Use Your Information
Information collected through this website may be used to respond to inquiries or appointment requests, communicate with you about services or questions, improve website performance and usability, protect against spam or misuse, and meet administrative or legal obligations. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not share personal data with third parties except when necessary to operate the website or comply with legal obligations. If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email. Visitor comments may be checked through automated spam detection services.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely to allow follow-up comments to be approved automatically rather than held for moderation. If user accounts exist on this site, we store the personal information provided in the user profile. Users may view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time except for usernames. Website administrators may also view and edit this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
You may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You may also request that we erase personal data we hold about you, except for information we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes. Requests can be made using the contact information available on this website.
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. While no website can guarantee absolute security, appropriate safeguards are used to protect the data we collect and store.
HIPAA Considerations
Airway Dentistry is a healthcare provider and is committed to protecting patient health information. This website is not intended to transmit protected health information and should not be used to share sensitive medical details. Any personal health information shared with Airway Dentistry outside of this website is handled in accordance with applicable privacy and security standards. Using this website does not establish a doctor–patient relationship.
California Privacy Rights (CCPA)
California residents may have additional rights regarding their personal information, including the right to request disclosure of collected data and the right to request deletion of personal information, subject to legal limitations. Airway Dentistry does not sell personal information. Requests related to California privacy rights may be submitted through the contact information provided on this website.
