Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 15, 2026
This website belongs to Benjamin Cole, LPCC — a private therapy practice in Kentucky. This policy explains, in plain language, what information this site collects and how it is handled.
This is an informational website only. It does not offer online therapy, host a client portal, or store any clinical or medical records.
What this site collects
Contact form submissions
When you fill out the contact form, your name, email address, and message are collected. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry — nothing else. It is not added to any mailing list, and it is not shared with or sold to third parties.
Basic server logs
Like all websites, the hosting infrastructure automatically records technical data when you visit — including your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This data is used only for server security and basic operations. It is not used to identify or track individuals.
What this site does not collect
- No tracking cookies or advertising cookies
- No analytics platforms (such as Google Analytics)
- No user accounts or stored passwords
- No payment information
- No clinical or health-related data
Your visit to this site is not tracked across other websites.
A note on confidentiality
Submitting a message through this website does not establish a therapist-client relationship, and communications through this site are not protected by therapist-client privilege. Please do not share sensitive personal or clinical information through the contact form.
If you become a client, your clinical information is governed by a separate Notice of Privacy Practices provided at the start of treatment, in accordance with HIPAA and Kentucky law.
Children
This website is intended for adults seeking therapy services. Information is not knowingly collected from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted information through this site, please contact me so it can be removed.
Changes to this policy
If this policy is updated, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated date.
Questions
If you have questions about this privacy policy or how your information is handled, please reach out directly.
