This Privacy Policy describes how Summit Dermatology and Aesthetics (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects your personal information when you visit summitderm.com (the “Site”), use our online services, submit forms, request information, purchase products (if applicable), or otherwise communicate with us (collectively, the “Services”).

For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “you” and “your” means you as the user of the Services, whether you are a patient, customer, website visitor, or another individual whose information we collect pursuant to this Privacy Policy.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using or accessing any of the Services, you agree to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use or access the Services.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will post the updated version on the Site and revise the “Last updated” date.

How We Collect and Use Your Personal Information

We collect personal information from a variety of sources depending on how you interact with us. In addition to the specific uses described below, we may use information to:

• Communicate with you

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Services

• Comply with legal obligations

• Enforce our terms and protect our rights and the rights of others

• Maintain security and prevent fraud

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. 

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do. Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
