​
DO NOT PROVIDE US WITH YOUR PHI.
​
We take confidentiality and privacy seriously.
​
Our Privacy Policy details how Atlanta PT approaches the confidentiality of its visitors and clients. We take our responsibility to protect the privacy of your information seriously. However, because this Website is not intended to transmit or store protected health information (“PHI”), Atlanta PT’s activities as they relate to this Website may not comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”). The protections extended to our practice’s records and data are not necessarily extended to non-PHI-related information shared or transmitted on this website.
We have no affirmative duty to monitor the information that you provide.
It is important that you not use, provide, transmit, store, or disclose any PHI through our Website. We have no affirmative duty to monitor the sensitivity or type of the data that you might provide, transmit, store, or disclose while using this Website. If we have actual knowledge that you are using, providing, transmitting, storing, or disclosing PHI through our Website, we may revoke your access to the Website and its Content.
