Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains what information West Periodontics and Dental Implants collects when you use our website, how we use it and what choices you have. In plain terms, a privacy policy is a written statement of how an organization treats the personal details people share with it. We are a gum care and dental implant practice in Lutherville-Timonium, Maryland, with Dr. Brandon West, Dr. Clifford Zdanowicz and Dr. Karl Zeren. This policy covers our website at https://westperiodds.com, and we wrote it for patients and neighbors in Timonium, MD who want to know what happens to their information.

What this website collects: details you type into our contact form, our book-appointment form and our referral form, such as your name, phone number, email address, the reason for your visit and your message. We also receive basic visit data through analytics, such as which pages are viewed, the type of device and browser used and roughly how people find the site. We use what you send us to answer your questions, schedule visits and coordinate referrals. We use visit data to see which pages are helpful and to fix what is not. Please keep sensitive health details out of web forms and share them by phone at 410-252-0871 or at your visit instead.

Questions about this policy are always welcome. If you would like to know what we hold about you, correct it or have it removed, call us at 410-252-0871 or reach out through our contact form, and we will respond as soon as we can.

How We Use and Share Your Information

We use the details you send through our forms only to run the practice: replying to you, booking your appointment and handling referrals from other offices. We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with people who help us operate the website and the practice, such as our website host and analytics provider, or when the law requires it. Our analytics may use cookies, which are small files stored in your browser that help count visits. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the site will still work. If you contact us from Timonium or anywhere else, the same rules apply to your information.

Your Choices and How to Reach Us

You decide what you share with us, and you can change your mind. Here is what you can do:

  • Ask what we have and request a copy of the details you submitted through our forms
  • Ask us to correct or delete information you sent through the website
  • Manage cookies through your browser settings or by blocking analytics tools
  • Opt out of messages by telling us you prefer not to be contacted by email or phone

Tell us which request you are making and we will explain the next step.

Safeguards, Updates and Questions

We limit who can see the information sent through our website and use reasonable safeguards to protect it, though no website or email can be considered completely secure. Our site may link to other websites, and those sites have their own privacy practices, so please read their policies before sharing anything. We may update this policy when our website or the law changes, and the current version will always be posted on this page. Accepting a policy is your decision, so read it first and call us with questions. To talk to our team, call 410-252-0871 or book a consultation online.

Questions About Our Privacy Policy

Many people ask how to check a privacy policy and whether it is okay to accept one. A good habit is to look for what information is collected, why it is collected, who it is shared with and how you can ask for changes. We have laid those points out above in everyday language. If anything is unclear, or you want to know how we handle a form you submitted, ask our team by phone or through the contact form and we will explain it.

Your trust matters to us as much as your care does. If you have a question about your privacy at West Periodontics & Dental Implants, contact us at 410-252-0871 and we will gladly walk you through how your information is handled.
