This website is informational only. It is not a clinical platform. No patient records, diagnostic data, or Protected Health Information (PHI) are collected or processed through this website.
We collect only the information you voluntarily provide or that is passively generated by your visit.
Contact Form Submissions
When you submit a consultation inquiry, we collect your name, email address, phone number (if provided), and the message you write. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry.
Anonymous Analytics
We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-first analytics service. Plausible does not use cookies, does not store personal data, and does not track users across websites. It collects only aggregate, anonymous statistics (e.g., page views, country of origin). No personal information is involved.
AI Chat (Mentis)
If you use the Mentis AI assistant on this website, your conversation messages are sent to OpenAI's API to generate responses. Conversation history is stored temporarily in your browser's session storage only — it is not stored on our servers. No PHI is collected or transmitted through this chat.
Browser Preferences
We store certain preferences (such as your privacy consent choice and audio player state) in your browser's localStorage. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
We do not use your information for advertising, remarketing, or behavioral targeting. We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for commercial purposes.
This website does not use tracking cookies or advertising cookies. Plausible Analytics is cookieless. We use browser localStorage for storing your preferences (consent record, audio state). See our Cookie & Storage Policy for full details.
We use a limited set of trusted service providers to operate this website:
| Provider | Purpose | Data Involved |
|---|---|---|
| Amazon Web Services, Inc. | Website hosting, delivery, and database | HTTP requests, server logs (ephemeral), contact form submissions |
| OpenAI, Inc. | AI chat responses (Mentis) | Chat messages only (no PHI) |
| Google Gmail API | Transactional email delivery | Your name and email (inquiry confirmation) |
| Plausible Analytics | Anonymous website analytics | Aggregate statistics only (no personal data) |
Each provider is contractually required to handle data in accordance with applicable law. We do not share your information with any other third parties.
Contact form submissions are retained for up to 24 months to allow us to follow up on inquiries and maintain business records. After this period, records are deleted or anonymized. You may request deletion at any time (see § 8).
Anonymous analytics data is retained for 24 months in aggregate form. Plausible does not retain personal data.
Submitting a consultation inquiry through this website does not create a doctor-patient relationship. No medical advice is provided through this website. The Mentis AI assistant provides general educational information about facial plastic surgery procedures only — it does not provide diagnoses, treatment recommendations, or clinical assessments.
In a medical emergency, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room immediately. Do not use this website for emergency medical guidance.
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@drhonrado.comwith the subject line "California Privacy Request." We will respond within 45 days. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request.
Global Privacy Control (GPC): We recognize GPC signals sent by your browser. Since we do not sell or share personal information, GPC signals have no material effect on your experience, but we acknowledge and respect them.
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for commercial purposes, targeted advertising, or cross-context behavioral advertising.
The "Do Not Sell or Share" right under CPRA is not triggered by our current data practices. If you have questions about how your data is handled, email us at info@drhonrado.com.
We implement industry-standard security measures including TLS encryption for all data in transit, access controls for database records, and regular security reviews. Our hosting infrastructure (Amazon Web Services) maintains SOC 2 Type II certification.
No method of electronic transmission is 100% secure. If you believe your data has been compromised, contact us immediately at info@drhonrado.com.
This website is not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a minor, contact us at info@drhonrado.com and we will delete it promptly.
