Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9/13/26
This Privacy Policy explains how S. Badger Empowerment and Consulting Services, LLC ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website. It applies to this website only. It does not cover the health information we collect and use in the course of providing therapy services — that information is governed by our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, which is provided separately to clients.
Information We Collect
Information you provide directly. When you use our contact form or reach out by email or phone, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, and any other information you choose to share.
Information collected automatically. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are viewed and how long visitors stay. This tool may collect information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and general location, typically through cookies. This information is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
-
Respond to your inquiries and schedule consultations
-
Understand and improve how our website is used
-
Maintain the security and proper functioning of our site
We do not sell your information to third parties, and we do not use information submitted through our website for advertising purposes.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies, including those placed by Google Analytics, to collect the usage information described above. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how parts of the site function, but will not prevent you from browsing the site or contacting us.
Sharing of Information
We do not share the information collected through this website with third parties, except:
-
With service providers who help us operate the site (such as our website host or Google Analytics), who are only permitted to use the information to provide services to us
-
If required by law, such as in response to a subpoena or court order
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information collected through this website. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children's Privacy
Our therapy services are available to children and adolescents, but this website itself is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the website. Any information about a minor client that we collect for scheduling or treatment purposes is provided by a parent or legal guardian and is handled in accordance with our HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.
Your Choices
You may choose not to provide certain information, though this may limit our ability to respond to your inquiry or schedule services. You may also opt out of Google Analytics tracking using tools such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
