Welcome to SomnoSleep & ENT Consultants (“we”, “our”, “us”). This policy describes how we handle information collected through our website (somnosleepmed.com).

Health-Related Inquiries: Any information you provide regarding sleep apnea, ENT symptoms, or medical history via our forms is treated with the highest level of confidentiality.

4. Third-Party Sharing
We do not sell or rent your information. We share data only with trusted service providers (such as our Electronic Health Record system) who are legally required to maintain HIPAA-compliant security standards.

5. Security
We use industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS) to protect data transmitted through our website forms. However, please be aware that no standard email is 100% secure; we encourage the use of our secure Patient Portal for sensitive clinical discussions.
