How we handle your information, and the protections that apply to anything you tell us.
What's true of this website today
- We use two analytics tools to understand site traffic. Ahrefs Web Analytics counts anonymized page views without cookies. Google Analytics uses cookies to see how people move through the site, and it runs only if you choose Allow on the cookie banner. You can change your answer at any time under Cookie settings at the bottom of every page, and if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a no. We have turned off Google Analytics' advertising features. It receives the address of each page you view but never what you type into a form, and it does not run on the client deposit page. We run no advertising or retargeting pixels on this site.
- Health information gets the stricter rule. Addiction treatment records in the United States are protected by 42 CFR Part 2 as well as HIPAA, a tighter standard than most medical information. Contacting us is not something we disclose.
- You can ask us instead. If you'd rather not enter anything on a website at all, call 973-239-9400 and speak to a person.
