Text Messaging (SMS) and Consent

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All text messaging originator opt-in data and consent records will not be shared with any third parties.

- With service providers who perform functions on our behalf (such as appointment, messaging, or website hosting providers) under confidentiality obligations
- When required by law, regulation, legal process, or to protect the rights and safety of our patients and practice
Protected Health Information
As a dental practice, certain health information we maintain is protected under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and applicable Texas law. Our handling of protected health information is governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices, which is provided to patients and available upon request.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we collect through our website, including information submitted through contact forms, appointment request forms, consultation request forms, and other online forms. These safeguards may include secure transmission technologies, access controls, secure hosting environments, limited-access systems, vendor oversight, and other measures intended to help protect information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
Access to information submitted through our website is limited to authorized personnel and service providers who need the information to respond to your inquiry, schedule an appointment, provide requested services, support patient communications, operate our website, or assist with our business operations.
Please do not use our website forms to submit emergency dental or medical requests. If you are experiencing a dental or medical emergency, call 911 or seek immediate care from an appropriate healthcare provider. Unless specifically requested by us through a secure method, please avoid submitting highly sensitive medical, financial, or personal information through general website contact forms.
No website, internet transmission, online form, email communication, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. While we take reasonable steps to protect the information submitted through our website, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or from the website.
Use of Cookies
Ashar Dentistry’s website may use “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Ashar Dentistry’s pages, or register with Ashar Dentistry’s site or services, a cookie helps Ashar Dentistry to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information. When you return to the same website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of Ashar Dentistry’s services or websites you visit.
