Effective August 27, 2026
Pearl Dental Center ("we," "us," or "our") operates pearldentaltampa.com. This policy explains what information this website collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. It covers this website only.
Our contact and appointment request forms are convenient, but they are not a secure or HIPAA-protected channel. Please limit what you send to the details we need in order to reach you, and do not include diagnoses, symptoms, treatment history, or other medical information. To discuss anything clinical, call us at (813) 803-5767.
Once you are a patient of the practice, your protected health information is governed by HIPAA and by our Notice of Privacy Practices, which we provide at your first visit. That notice, not this policy, controls how we handle your dental records.
When you submit a form on this site, you provide some or all of the following:
We use this only to respond to you, answer your question, verify coverage, and schedule care.
Like most websites, ours records technical information when you visit: your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you view, the site or search that referred you, and how long you stay. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies described below.
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. This site uses:
The first time you visit, you will see a cookie notice. You can decline non-essential cookies there. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or install Google's opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Declining cookies will not affect your ability to use this site or to contact us.
This site does not currently respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals.
We do not sell or rent your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share it only with:
We keep form submissions for as long as needed for the purpose they were collected and to satisfy our recordkeeping obligations, and then delete them. Analytics data is retained according to the retention setting in our Google Analytics account.
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect information submitted through this site. No transmission over the internet is completely secure, which is why we ask you not to send medical details through the forms.
You can ask us for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, opt out of non-essential cookies as described above, or ask us to stop contacting you. Depending on where you live you may have additional rights under your state's privacy law; we will honor a verified request from a resident of any state.
To make a request, email info@pearldentaltampa.com or call (813) 803-5767.
This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children online. We do treat minor patients; those treatment records are handled under HIPAA with the consent of a parent or guardian.
This site may link to websites we do not operate. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their policies.
If we change this policy, we will post the updated version on this page with a new effective date.
