Rabe Family Dentistry (“we”, “our”, “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy and safeguarding your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, protect and handle your personal information collected through our website and our SMS text message communications in compliance with applicable law and 10DLC regulations. This policy applies only to information collected on our website and through SMS messaging programs.

1. Information We Collect

We collect personal information you voluntarily provide, including:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Mobile phone number (for SMS consent and messaging)
  • Postal address
  • Appointment requests and information submitted through forms

We may also collect non-personal automatically collected data such as:

  • IP address
  • Browser and device information
  • Pages visited and referring URLs

We do not collect or transmit sensitive health information (unless you submit it via secure systems governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices). This policy does not replace that Notice.

2. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

  • Respond to inquiries and appointment requests
  • Provide website functionality and improve usability
  • Maintain website security and comply with legal obligations
  • Send SMS messages when you have opted in to receive them (appointment reminders, service notifications, etc.)

SMS messages are used only for the purposes you have consented to. Standard message and data rates may apply.

3. SMS Consent and Message Use

By providing your mobile number and opting in to receive SMS communications from Rabe Family Dentistry, you consent to receive recurring messages that may include:

  • Appointment confirmations or reminders
  • Practice updates and service notifications
  • Other messages related to your care and interactions with us

Consent is not a condition of purchase or service. Message frequency varies based on interactions with our practice.

We will clearly disclose how we use your number at the point of opt-in, and we will not send messages outside the expected purposes of the program.

4. Information Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell or rent your personal information or mobile opt-in data to third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.

We may share information with:

  • Service providers that help deliver the services you request (e.g., SMS delivery vendors such as carriers and messaging platforms) only to fulfill those services
  • Legal authorities when required by law

Mobile opt-in/consent data will not be shared with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes outside of required SMS delivery facilitation.

5. Information Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information. No transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we strive to maintain appropriate protections.

6. Opt-Out / SMS Unsubscribe

You have the right to withdraw your consent to receive SMS messages at any time.

To opt out of receiving future SMS messages from us, you may:

  • Reply STOP to any message you receive, or
  • Contact us using the contact information below

After opting out, we will promptly discontinue SMS messages to that number (except for a final confirmation message).

7. Cookies, Analytics, and Children’s Privacy

We may use cookies or similar technologies to improve website functionality. You may disable cookies through your browser settings.

Our services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under this age.

8. Oregon Privacy Rights

Oregon residents may request access to or correction of their personal information, subject to applicable law.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in practices or legal requirements. Revised policies will be posted on our site with the “Last Updated” date.
