Privacy at MyTherapist.com

Overall Approach to Privacy

MyTherapist.com and the providers of this site will not normally share individual information about you with any third party and will not contact you without your permission. This commitment to confidentiality will be restricted or suspended only under direct legal requirement, and then only to the extent necessary to comply with the rule of law. Please see our Terms of Service for more information about the relationship between this site and the company which formally provides it, and please see About Us for more information about the relationship between this site and the therapists who practice from it.

Each individual therapist listed at MyTherapist.com specifies their own privacy and confidentiality policy within their own section of the site, and these individual policies apply to your communications with that particular therapist. The overall MyTherapist.com privacy policy applies only to your general use of the site, not to your communications with any particular practitioner.
