Privacy Policy

1. Scope

Before You Meet provides elective ultrasound experiences in Toms River, New Jersey. This policy covers personal information collected through this website, our contact form, and communications you send to us. It also explains how information may be handled when you choose to book through an external scheduling provider.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide

We may collect information you choose to provide, including:

• Your name, email address, and telephone number.
• The contents of messages or questions submitted through our contact form.
• Appointment-related details and preferences you share when communicating with us.
• Information you provide when requesting assistance, exercising a privacy right, or otherwise contacting us.

Booking and payment information

Our booking buttons direct you to GlossGenius, an external scheduling platform. Information submitted there—including appointment and payment details—is collected and processed by GlossGenius under its own privacy practices. Before You Meet may receive information needed to manage your appointment and provide the requested service. We do not collect payment-card details through this website's contact form.

Information collected automatically

When you use the website, we and our service providers may automatically receive limited technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP address, timestamps, and information collected through cookies or similar technologies.

3. How We Use Information

We may use personal information to:

• Respond to questions and provide customer support.
• Schedule, confirm, manage, and provide ultrasound experiences and related services.
• Send service-related communications about an inquiry or appointment.
• Operate, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website.
• Understand how visitors use the website and evaluate site performance.
• Prevent fraud, misuse, security incidents, or unlawful activity.
• Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights, customers, and others.
• Send promotional communications only when permitted by law and consistent with your choices.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The website and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, or similar technologies for essential functions, security, preferences, performance, and analytics. You can control many cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may affect some website features.

Third-party destinations, including GlossGenius and Google Maps, may use their own cookies and tracking technologies after you visit them. We do not control those third parties' practices.

5. How We Share Information

We may disclose personal information in the following circumstances:

• Service providers: Vendors that support website hosting, security, contact-form delivery, email, analytics, appointment scheduling, payment processing, and business operations.
• Legal and safety reasons: When reasonably necessary to comply with law or legal process, enforce agreements, investigate misuse, or protect the rights, safety, and property of Before You Meet or others.
• Business changes: In connection with a merger, financing, sale, reorganization, or transfer of all or part of the business, subject to appropriate protections.
• With your direction or consent: When you ask us to share information or otherwise authorize disclosure.

We do not knowingly sell personal information in exchange for money. Certain analytics or advertising activities may be treated as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under some state privacy laws even when no money changes hands. Where applicable, we will provide and honor choices required by law.

6. Health-Related and Sensitive Information

Pregnancy and appointment details may be sensitive. Please share only information that is reasonably necessary for your inquiry or visit. Do not use the website or contact form for emergencies, urgent medical concerns, diagnosis, treatment, or highly sensitive medical records. Contact your healthcare provider or emergency services as appropriate.

Before You Meet's elective ultrasound experiences are for bonding and keepsake purposes and do not replace prenatal care, medical evaluation, or diagnostic ultrasound examinations.

7. Data Retention and Security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining business and tax records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods depend on the type of information, why it was collected, and applicable requirements.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

8. Children's Privacy

This website is intended for adults seeking information about pregnancy-related ultrasound experiences and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through the website. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us.

9. Your Choices and Privacy Rights

You may choose not to submit information through the website, although that may limit our ability to respond or provide certain services. You can also manage cookies through your browser and opt out of promotional messages by following the instructions in the message or contacting us.

Depending on where you live and subject to legal exceptions, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of personal information; to opt out of certain processing; to withdraw consent; or to appeal a decision about a request. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. You may submit a request using the contact methods below.

10. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website links to services we do not operate, including GlossGenius and Google Maps. Their privacy policies—not this one—govern information they collect directly. Please review their notices before providing information.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our practices, services, or legal obligations change. The “Last updated” date above shows when the policy was most recently revised. Material changes will be communicated as required by law.
