This Privacy Policy explains how SalivaTests.com (“we,” “our,” or “us”) handles information when you visit our website or interact with our provider directory.
1. Zero Third-Party Advertising Trackers
We do not install behavioral ad trackers, cross-site retargeting pixels, or data-broker cookies. You can browse our educational guides, use our interactive question checklist, and search for providers without having your browsing habits packaged and sold to third-party advertisers.
2. No Personal Health or Medical Records Collected
SalivaTests.com is an educational and directory resource. We do not collect, request, or store sensitive protected health information, such as medical diagnoses, detailed symptoms, insurance policy numbers, laboratory test results, or clinical chart notes.
Our interactive tools—including the Topic Explorer and the Visit Question Checklist—execute locally in your web browser. Your question selections remain on your device and are never transmitted to our servers.
3. Information Collected During Direct Practice Inquiries
If you choose to submit an appointment inquiry to a specific dental practice through our directory, we collect only the minimal contact details necessary for that practice to respond:
- Your full name.
- Your email address or telephone number.
- Your preferred contact method (email or phone).
- Your optional broad testing interest (e.g., dry mouth evaluation).
Direct Routing: This inquiry information is transmitted exclusively to the specific dental practice you selected. We do not distribute, sell, or auction patient contact details to multiple competing practices.
4. Server Logs & Technical Hosting Data
Like virtually all websites hosted on web servers, our hosting provider (Hostinger) automatically records standard server access logs. These logs include:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address.
- Browser user agent and operating system.
- Pages requested and access timestamps.
- Referring URL.
These logs are used solely for server security, DDoS defense, debugging technical errors, and measuring aggregate traffic. We do not merge server logs with individual user contact inquiries.
5. HIPAA Notice
SalivaTests.com is an independent publisher and directory. We are not a covered healthcare entity or business associate under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Therefore, do not submit confidential medical records or detailed protected health information through any form on this website. When you establish care with a licensed dental practice, your clinical interactions with that dental office are governed by their respective HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.
