Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a web analytics service (traffic monitoring) offered by Google Inc. that records and stores all activity a website User engages in during their time on our Website, but without revealing information that could disclose the identity of the User. The Google Analytics tracking software is interested in how you got to the Website, your location (broad, not specific), how long you are here, what kind of device you are using (computer, laptop, tablet, cellphone), what are the screen resolution settings, what pages did you view, and what was the last one you visited before leaving the website.

This kind of information, when combined in aggregate, helps the Practice understand Website Users, and the potential needs of future clients.

Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Website. This data is shared anonymously with other Google services, including services that conduct targeted advertising.

Third-Party use of Cookies

Privileged Privacy Rights, Usage of Data, Privacy Forfeiture, and More

How we use Personal & Usage Data

Stress and Anger Management Institute of Oklahoma LLC uses the collected data for several purposes:
• To improve on the Services we offer.
• To provide customer support
• To gather analysis or valuable information so that we can improve our Website.
• To monitor the usage of our Website
• To detect, prevent and address technical issues.

Disclosure of Personal Data Disclosed by User

We never disclose personal information, sensitive or identifiable, to anyone, anywhere, at any time for any reason. Communication between a client and therapist is considered Privileged Private information, on par with the privacy protections observed between attorneys and clients, priests and parishioners, and journalists with their sources. Only by a court order from a judge can sensitive information be curated and revealed in a setting determined by the court.

Forfeiture of Privacy Protection

By law, a licensed mental health care provider is considered a “mandated reporter” with a legal obligation to disclose to authorities when a client has:

• made a credible statement they wish to harm themselves,
• made credible threats to harm others (identified or unidentified, individual or group), and
• made a credible statement to commit a destructive act against property.
• Additionally, if the mandated reporter has witnessed abuse (emotional, psychological, sexual, and physical); suspects abuse has occurred in the past; or believes abuse is occurring on a chronic basis.

Under the circumstances described above, a client receiving mental health services has voluntarily forfeited their rights to privacy.

Security of Data

The security of your data [Emails & Text Messages] is important to the Practice but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

Counseling Records

Anger Management Institute of Tulsa, PLLC, does not use, condone, or approve of "electronic medical records", which have never been secure, and is a complete fraud to all consumers. The records, notes, and signed intake forms managed by the Practice are kept in a triple-layer secure environment.

Our Website may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us. If you click a third party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.

We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party sites or services.

Children's Privacy
