Policy
Transparency is the core of our mission. This document outlines how Ashfordale handles your data with the same rigor we apply to software analysis.
1. Introduction
Effective Date: January 01, 2026
Welcome to Ashfordale ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal data you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website and use our resources.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in several ways to provide a better experience for mental health professionals:
- Personal Data: When you subscribe to our reports or contact us, we may collect your name, email address, and professional credentials.
- Usage Data: We automatically collect information on how the Service is accessed and used (e.g., browser type, time spent on pages, diagnostic logs).
- Cookies: We use cookies to track activity and hold certain information to improve site performance. We do not use tracking cookies for third-party advertising.
3. Use of Data
Ashfordale uses the collected data for various purposes:
- To provide and maintain our independent analysis reports.
- To notify you about updates to SimplePractice or other EHR platform benchmarks.
- To provide community support and respond to software-specific inquiries.
- To monitor the usage of our Service and detect technical issues.
Independent Data Guarantee
Crucially, Ashfordale does NOT sell your data to EHR providers, insurance companies, or pharmaceutical marketing firms. Our independence is our product.
4. Security of Data
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. We strive to use commercially acceptable means (encryption, secure servers) to protect your Personal Data, especially considering the sensitive nature of our audience's profession.
5. Third-Party Services
We may employ third-party companies (e.g., newsletter providers) to facilitate our Service. These third parties have access to your Personal Data only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

Depending on your location (such as the GDPR or CCPA jurisdictions), you may have certain data protection rights, including the right to access, update, or delete the information we have on you. If you wish to exercise these rights, please contact us at the email provided below.
