This policy explains how general website inquiries are handled on DrDanaTowle.com. The site provides biographical and educational content. Its contact form is intended for ordinary website matters, not for medical records, clinical consultation, or sensitive health information.
Information submitted through the form
The contact form asks for a name, email address, subject, and message. These details are sent to the website administrator using the website’s configured email service. The form does not intentionally store a separate message record in the WordPress database, although copies may remain in the receiving mailbox and in records maintained by the mail provider or hosting service.
Please include only what is necessary to explain the website inquiry. Do not submit medical history, identification documents, insurance information, or photographs of a medical concern. If clinical communication is needed, use the appropriate treating office’s secure process.
Security and basic spam prevention
The form uses a security token, a hidden spam field, and a short-lived rate limit. For that rate limit, the software derives a hashed identifier from the connecting IP address. Hosting systems may also keep technical logs, such as access times, browser information, and IP addresses, for operation and security.
Cookies and external services
WordPress may use cookies for administrative sessions and other enabled features. The supplied theme and setup plugin do not add advertising trackers or analytics scripts. Additional plugins, hosting tools, or later site changes can introduce other services; their settings and policies should be reviewed if enabled.
Links to other websites
Articles and biography pages link to external sources. Those websites have their own privacy practices and content policies. Following a link does not establish an endorsement or a relationship with the external organization.
Questions and corrections
Use the Contact page for questions about information submitted through the website or to request a correction. Do not send further sensitive information while making that request. No internet form or email system can guarantee absolute security.
