4. Mental Health and Protected Health Information
Information collected through a public website is not necessarily treated the same way as information contained within a clinical health record.
Once you become a client of Weave Mental Health, certain information relating to your treatment may constitute Protected Health Information (PHI) and may be protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and other applicable federal and state privacy laws.
Our use and disclosure of PHI is described separately in our Notice of Privacy Practices.
5. Contact Forms
Information submitted through website forms is used primarily to respond to your request or inquiry.
Submitting a website contact form does not establish a therapist-client relationship.
Please do not use website forms for emergencies or urgent mental-health concerns.
6. Scheduling and Client Portal
Weave Mental Health may use a third-party practice-management, electronic health record, telehealth, or scheduling platform.
When you access one of these services, you may leave the Weave Mental Health website and enter a service operated by another provider.
Information submitted through those systems may be governed by additional privacy, security, and HIPAA requirements.
Where required, Weave Mental Health enters into appropriate agreements with service providers that handle Protected Health Information on our behalf.
7. Telehealth
Weave Mental Health may provide telehealth services to eligible clients located in jurisdictions where the treating clinician is legally authorized to practice.
Telehealth sessions and related clinical information are handled according to applicable privacy, confidentiality, professional licensing, and health-information requirements.
Additional telehealth disclosures and consent requirements may be provided before treatment begins.
8. Cookies and Website Technologies
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies that help the website function properly, remember preferences, maintain security, and understand general website performance.
We seek to limit the collection and disclosure of sensitive health-related information through website tracking technologies.
Certain cookies may be necessary for basic website functionality and security.
Additional analytics or similar technologies, if used, should be configured consistently with applicable privacy and health-information requirements.
9. Third-Party Services
Our website may link to or integrate with third-party services, including:
- Appointment scheduling systems
- Client portals
- Telehealth platforms
- Payment processors
- Maps
- Email services
- Website hosting providers
- Other technology providers
When you access an external service, that provider’s privacy policy and terms may also apply.
We encourage you to review the privacy practices of third-party services before providing personal information.
10. Payments
If online payment functionality is offered, payments may be processed through a third-party payment processor.
Weave Mental Health does not necessarily receive or store your complete payment-card information.
Payment information is subject to the privacy and security practices of the applicable payment processor.
11. Information Security
Weave Mental Health uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information.
However, no website, email system, internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
For sensitive clinical communications, please use the secure communication methods provided by the practice whenever available.
12. Email and Text Communications
Email and standard text messaging may not always be secure.
By contacting us through email or text, you acknowledge that electronic communications can involve privacy and security risks.
We may recommend using a secure client portal for communications containing sensitive clinical information.
13. Information Sharing
We may disclose information to service providers that assist us in operating our practice and website when reasonably necessary to provide those services.
We may also disclose information when required or permitted by law, including when necessary to:
- Comply with legal obligations

Clinical information may be subject to additional confidentiality protections described in our Notice of Privacy Practices.

Parents or legal guardians seeking services for a minor should contact the practice directly.
