Effective date: September 20, 2026
Inspired Life Psychology PLLC (“Inspired Life Psychology,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Website Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and shared when you visit joanneraptisphd.com or contact us through the website.
This policy governs the public website. It is separate from the practice’s Notice of Privacy Practices, which describes how protected health information is handled in connection with psychotherapy services.
Information you provide
You may voluntarily provide your name, email address, telephone number, area of interest, and message through the contact form or by contacting us directly. Please do not include diagnoses, treatment details, or other sensitive clinical information in the website form.
Submitting a form does not create a psychologist–patient relationship and does not guarantee that services will be offered.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the website, the hosting provider and website tools may automatically process technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, requested pages, timestamps, and security or performance logs. Cookies and similar technologies may be used to operate, secure, and improve the website.
Embedded content and third-party services
The website may display content or links from third parties, including social-media, scheduling, practice-management, payment, and digital-commerce providers. Those services may collect information, use cookies, or monitor your interaction under their own privacy policies. Following an external link subjects you to that provider’s terms and privacy practices.
Digital-product purchases are completed through Gumroad. Payment-card information is submitted to and processed by Gumroad rather than directly by this website.
How information is used
We may use information to respond to inquiries; determine whether requested services may be appropriate; schedule consultations; operate, secure, and improve the website; fulfill legal and professional obligations; prevent fraud or misuse; and communicate about services you request.
How information is shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared with service providers that help operate the website and communications, including website hosting, WordPress plugins, secure email, practice-management, scheduling, billing, and commerce platforms; when required by law; to protect rights, safety, or security; or with your direction or consent.
Practice communication providers that handle protected health information are used with applicable privacy and security safeguards, including Business Associate Agreements where required. No method of internet transmission is completely secure, so the public website form should still not be used for sensitive clinical details.
Retention
Information is retained only as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to respond to inquiries, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, and meet legal or professional obligations. Retention may differ when information becomes part of a clinical record.
Your choices
You may disable cookies through your browser, although parts of the website may not work as intended. You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of website information by contacting us, subject to legal, security, and record-retention obligations. Rights involving clinical records are described in the Notice of Privacy Practices.
Children
This website and the services described here are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the website.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information. No website, email system, or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the website, services, or legal requirements change. The effective date above indicates the latest revision.
