Privacy Policy
Last updated
Demo notice: This is a template privacy policy on a preview site. It has not been reviewed by an attorney and does not yet reflect the practice's final data practices. It must be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before the site goes live.
The Local Vets ("we," "us," "our") is a privately owned small-animal veterinary practice opening in Franklin, Tennessee. This policy explains what personal information we collect through this website, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
What information do we collect?
Through this website, we collect only what you choose to give us. Today, that is limited to the following.
- Email address — when you join our founding-patient waitlist.
- Messages you send us — if you contact us directly or through social media.
We do not collect payment information, medical records, or any sensitive personal information through this website.
Notice at Collection
Categories collected: identifiers (email address).
Purpose: to notify you when the practice opens and when appointments become available.
Sold or shared: No. We do not sell or share your personal information.
Retention: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.
How do we use your information?
We use your email address for one purpose: to tell you when The Local Vets opens and when you can book an appointment. We do not use it for unrelated advertising.
Do we use cookies or tracking?
This website does not set advertising or third-party tracking cookies. We do not run third-party ad pixels. If we add analytics in the future, we will use a privacy-first, cookieless tool and update this policy first.
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
We do not sell or share your personal information, and we never have. There is nothing to opt out of, because no sale or sharing of personal information takes place.
If that ever changes, we will update this policy and provide a working opt-out mechanism before any sale or sharing begins. We also honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal.
What are your privacy rights?
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and to opt out of its sale or sharing. We honor these requests regardless of your state of residence.
- Access — ask what personal information we hold about you.
- Deletion — ask us to delete your personal information.
- Correction — ask us to fix inaccurate information.
- Opt out — of any sale or sharing (see above — we do neither).
- Non-retaliation — we will never deny you care or service for exercising a privacy right.
To make a request, contact us through @thelocalvets. A dedicated privacy contact email will be published before the practice opens.
How do we protect your information?
This site is served over HTTPS. We limit access to the waitlist to the people who need it, and we keep no more information than we need.
Children's privacy
This website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be announced on this page before they take effect.
