Effective date: September 9, 2026
Taylen C. Peaden, D.O. PLLC, doing business as Dr. Peaden’s Primary Care (“we,” “our,” or “the practice”), respects your privacy. This Privacy & Cookie Policy explains how information is collected, used, and shared when you visit www.drpeaden.com.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Information you provide. We may receive information that you choose to submit through the website, such as your name, email address, telephone number, account information, and the contents of a message or request.
Technical information. Wix and service providers used by this website may automatically collect information such as your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, approximate location derived from your IP address, and dates and times of visits.
Cookies and similar technologies. The website may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies. Some are necessary for security and basic site operation. Others may support preferences, functionality, analytics, or marketing. Nonessential cookies are used according to the choices available through our Usercentrics consent banner.
HOW WE USE INFORMATION
We may use information to operate, secure, maintain, and improve the website; respond to inquiries; provide requested information; understand website traffic and performance; prevent fraud or misuse; comply with legal obligations; and protect the rights and safety of the practice, our patients, and others.
MEDICAL INFORMATION AND HIPAA
This website is not intended for medical emergencies, diagnosis, or treatment. Do not send protected health information, urgent clinical questions, prescription requests, or other sensitive medical information through ordinary email, social media, or unsecured website communications.
Patients should use the practice’s Healow patient portal or call the office at 386-365-4922 for patient-care matters. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
This website policy is separate from the practice’s HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, which explains how protected health information may be used and disclosed and describes patient rights under HIPAA. When HIPAA applies, the HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices controls the handling of protected health information.
COOKIE CHOICES
When available, the Usercentrics cookie banner allows you to accept, reject, or manage categories of nonessential cookies. Necessary cookies may remain active because they are required for security and core website functions. You may review or change your choices using the cookie settings control on the website. You may also limit cookies through your browser settings, although disabling necessary or functional cookies may affect how the website works.
SHARING WITH SERVICE PROVIDERS AND OTHERS
We may share information with vendors that help host, secure, analyze, maintain, or operate the website, including Wix and Usercentrics. These providers may process information according to their own terms and privacy practices and as needed to provide services to us.
We may also disclose information when required by law, legal process, or a governmental request; to protect legal rights, safety, or security; or in connection with a business reorganization or transfer. We do not sell personal information for money.
THIRD-PARTY LINKS
The website may link to services or websites operated by third parties, including Healow and social media services. Their privacy and security practices are governed by their own policies. A link from our website does not make us responsible for the content or privacy practices of another service.
DATA RETENTION AND SECURITY
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, to meet legal or operational requirements, or to resolve disputes. We and our service providers use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
This website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without appropriate authorization. A parent or guardian who believes a child has provided information through the website may contact us.

You may decline nonessential cookies through the consent banner, adjust browser cookie settings, and choose not to submit optional information. To ask about personal information submitted through this website or request a correction or deletion when applicable, contact us using the information below. Certain information may need to be retained when required by law or for legitimate operational purposes.
