DAS Dental Group – Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 29, 2026

Last Updated: October 29, 2026

 

DAS Dental Group ("we," "our," or "us") is dedicated to protecting your personal information and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and safeguard personal information obtained through our website, office communications, and our SMS/text messaging reminder programs, in accordance with applicable state and federal laws, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

 

1. Information We Collect

We may collect personal details that you provide to us directly, including:

  • Contact information (name, mobile phone number, email address, and mailing address). Appointment preferences, scheduling notes, and basic administrative inquiries.

  • Protected Health Information (PHI) collected via patient intake forms, medical histories, and clinical consultations (handled under our separate Notice of Privacy Practices).

2. How We Use Your Information

Information gathered through our website and communication channels is used strictly to:

  • Schedule, confirm, reschedule, or cancel patient appointments.

    Send administrative updates, arrival notices, and customer care responses.

  • Coordinate dental care, patient records management, and practice operations.

  • Respond to direct inquiries submitted through online forms or text messages.

3. SMS/Mobile Messaging Privacy & Data Sharing Prohibition

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with, sold to, or rented to any third parties.

We do not sell, rent, license, or disclose your mobile number or messaging consent records to external marketing agencies, data brokers, or advertisers under any circumstances.

​

4. Third-Party Service Providers

We may transmit data to trusted service providers (such as telecommunications carriers, electronic practice management systems, and secure web hosting partners) exclusively to facilitate our internal office communications. All such vendors are bound by contractual confidentiality agreements and, where applicable, signed Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) required by HIPAA.

 

5. Data Security

We maintain appropriate physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to secure your personal data against unauthorized disclosure, loss, or misuse. Because standard SMS is not end-to-end encrypted, our office limits text messages strictly to non-sensitive scheduling and logistical reminders.

 

6. Opting Out of Communications

You can opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying STOP to any message received from our office. For assistance or questions regarding your messaging preferences, reply HELP or contact our front desk directly.
