Privacy Policy
NATIVation Counseling Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 14, 2025
This Privacy Policy describes how NATIVation Counseling, LLC, and our affiliates, subsidiaries, and co-branding partners (collectively, “NATIVation Counseling,” “we,” “our,” and “us”) collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information. This Policy applies to all users of our Services in the United States, including:
-
Mental health therapy clients in Utah, Arizona, and Missouri;
-
Coaching clients nationwide; and
-
Individuals receiving ICWA Qualified Expert Witness (QEW) services nationwide.
Our Services include websites, mobile apps, telehealth platforms, coaching platforms, clinical portals, and other communications and offerings (collectively, “Services”).
IMPORTANT: If you are located outside of the United States, you should not use our Services or submit personal information to us.
1. SCOPE
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected by NATIVation Counseling, online or offline, unless otherwise covered by:
-
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA);
-
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA); or
-
State-specific privacy laws in jurisdictions where we operate.
HIPAA Covered Entity Statement: When we provide clinical therapy or related health services, we act as a “Covered Entity” or a member of an organized health care arrangement (OHCA) under HIPAA. In those instances, our use and disclosure of your Protected Health Information (PHI) is governed by our separate HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, not this Privacy Policy. You will receive this notice when you register for therapy services. Coaching, QEW consultations, and other non-clinical services are not subject to HIPAA, though we apply strong privacy safeguards to those services as well.
COPPA: We comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act. If you are under 13 years of age, we require verifiable parental consent before collecting your personal information. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 without such consent.
