Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy

Washington’s My Health My Data Act and Nevada’s consumer health data law give you specific rights over your consumer health data. Below I explain the consumer health data Moss Herbalism collects, how I use and share it, and how you can exercise your rights. My Privacy Policy covers everything else.

What I collect and why

Consumer health data is personal information that identifies your past, present, or future physical or mental health. I collect these categories:

CategoryWhat it includesHow I use it
Health information from your intake questionnaire and consultsAge, health history, symptoms and conditions, past diagnoses, medications and supplements, allergies, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and menstrual health, mental and emotional health, sleep, digestion, nutrition, stress, movement, the other practitioners you see, and your goalsTo prepare for and hold your consults, write your wellness plan and formula, check for herb and medication interactions, and follow up with you
Booking detailsYour name, email address, appointment type and time, and answers to booking questionsTo schedule, confirm, and hold your consult
PurchasesProducts, formulas, courses, and memberships you buy, with your shipping detailsTo fill, ship, and support your orders
Site and email activityVisits to pages about specific health topics, with your IP address, device details, and cookie identifiers; opens and clicks in my emailsTo understand which topics help people, and to improve my site and emails

Where it comes from

Directly from you, when you book, answer booking questions, fill out my intake questionnaires, meet with me, email me, or place an order. From the services that run my site, booking, and shop, such as Calendly, Google Analytics, and Mailchimp, when you use my site or open my emails. And from your browser and device when you visit my site.

What I share and with whom

I share consumer health data only as needed to provide the services you ask for, or with your consent. I never sell it.

Google Analytics and Mailchimp’s site code can recognize your browser across other websites over time. Moss Herbalism has no affiliates. I also disclose consumer health data when the law requires it.

Your rights

If you’re a Washington or Nevada consumer, you have the right to:

  • confirm whether I collect, share, or sell your consumer health data, and get a copy of it
  • receive a list of every third party I’ve shared it with, and how to contact them
  • ask me to correct it
  • withdraw your consent
  • ask me to stop collecting or sharing it
  • have it deleted, including by the services that hold it for me

Using these rights is free and never changes how I treat you.

How to make a request

Email mossherbalism@gmail.com with the subject line “Health data request” and tell me what you’d like. I’ll confirm your identity by matching a few details with my records, then respond within 45 days. If I need more time, I’ll tell you why and take up to 45 more days. You can make requests free of charge up to twice a year.

Appeals

If I decline your request, you can appeal by replying to my decision or by emailing me with the subject line “Health data appeal.” I’ll answer in writing within 45 days and explain what I did and why.

If I deny your appeal, you can file a complaint with your state’s attorney general. Washington residents can use the Washington Attorney General’s complaint page. Nevada residents can contact the Nevada Attorney General.

Changes to this policy

When I update this policy, I’ll change the date at the top of the page. For significant changes, I’ll post a notice on my site or email my clients and subscribers.
