Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026.

The Summit Addiction Center ("The Summit", "we", "our", "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit thesummitaddictioncenter.com, call our phone line, or otherwise interact with our services. The Summit is a referral and placement resource, not a licensed treatment facility.

Information We Collect

  • Information you provide when you call: name, phone number, insurance information, and a clinical summary you choose to share with a placement advisor.
  • Automatic information from this website: IP address, browser type, approximate location, referring URL, and pages visited. This is collected through standard server logs and any analytics tools we use.
  • Cookies: We use essential cookies to operate the website. We may also use analytics cookies to measure traffic in aggregate.

How We Use Information

  • To verify insurance coverage and coordinate placement at licensed inpatient treatment programs.
  • To respond to inquiries submitted through forms or calls.
  • To improve the website and understand traffic patterns in aggregate.

HIPAA & Confidentiality

Information you share with a placement advisor is treated as confidential. When we coordinate with a licensed inpatient program on your behalf, your consent is obtained for any disclosure. Licensed treatment providers you are matched with maintain their own HIPAA-compliant privacy practices that apply to your care.

How We Share Information

We share information only with the licensed inpatient treatment programs you are being placed into, and with insurance carriers to verify your benefits. We do not sell your information.
