3. Sensitive and Health-Related Information

Some information relating to a person's health, disability, care needs, or condition may be considered sensitive information under applicable law.

Vyzera does not sell sensitive personal information.

When health-related or other sensitive information is necessary to provide requested services, Vyzera intends to use and disclose such information only for appropriate business, care, legal, regulatory, or operational purposes and in accordance with applicable law.

Maryland law requires Residential Service Agencies to maintain privacy and confidentiality of covered client records and to safeguard record information against unauthorized use or disclosure.

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to organizations or individuals that assist us in operating our business, including service providers that perform functions such as:

  • Website hosting

  • Scheduling

  • Email and communications

  • Information technology

  • Data storage

  • Website analytics

  • Professional services

  • Business administration

These providers receive information only as appropriate for the services they perform and are subject to their own legal and contractual obligations.

Information may also be disclosed:

  • At your direction or with your authorization

  • To an authorized family member, representative, guardian, or other person as permitted by law

  • When required by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or lawful governmental request

5. Google Calendar and Google Meet

Vyzera uses Google services to allow prospective clients and families to schedule virtual consultations.

When you select Schedule a Complimentary Virtual Care Consultation, you may be directed to a Google-hosted scheduling page. Information submitted through that service may be processed by Google in accordance with Google's applicable terms and privacy practices.

Appointments may include Google Meet video-conferencing information.

You should review Google's privacy practices before submitting information through its services.

Vyzera recommends limiting information entered into the initial appointment form to information reasonably necessary to schedule and prepare for the consultation.

6. Squarespace and Other Third-Party Services

The Vyzera website is hosted using Squarespace and may rely on Squarespace or other service providers for website operation, security, analytics, forms, cookies, or related functionality.

Third-party services may collect information independently according to their own privacy policies and terms.

Vyzera is not responsible for the independent privacy practices of websites or services that we do not control.

Where required by applicable law, Vyzera will provide appropriate choices concerning nonessential cookies or similar technologies.

8. Data Retention

Vyzera retains personal information for only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, or comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

Client records are retained in accordance with applicable Maryland Residential Service Agency, medical-record, and other legal requirements.

9. Information Security

Vyzera uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we maintain.

However, no Internet transmission, electronic communication, or information-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

For this reason, please avoid sending highly sensitive information through ordinary email or unsecured website forms.
