Privacy Policy
Last updated November 7, 2026. This website policy is not legal advice and is not your clinical Notice of Privacy Practices.
Who we are
Total Wellness Chiropractic Center of Bowie operates this website from 6000 Laurel Bowie Road Suite 202, Bowie, Maryland 20715. You can call (301) 352-3454. Questions about this policy can go to that number.
This policy and your medical records
Information you type into a public website form is an inquiry. Health information created once you are a patient is governed by the Notice of Privacy Practices provided at the office. Ask the front desk for that notice. This page does not replace it. Maryland privacy-law and HIPAA questions should be reviewed with counsel; this draft describes what the website actually does today.
What the forms collect
Contact, service-interest, and scheduling forms ask for:
- Name, email, and phone number.
- On the contact form, a message you choose to write. Please do not include symptoms or medical history.
- On the scheduler, the service you select, whether you are a new or existing visitor, and any short note the form allows.
A hidden field is used only to drop automated spam. We do not use it to identify you.
Where form and booking data go
Your browser sends the form to this website. Our server then forwards the inquiry to the office communications system we call Angela, so staff can respond. The same server asks Angela for open appointment times and sends a booking request. The website does not show you a booking confirmation unless that request succeeds.
Staff may call, email, or text you to answer the request you submitted. That contact is about the inquiry. We do not run a separate promotional text program from this website. If you receive a text and want it to stop, reply STOP if the message says you can, and call the office so a person can update the record. Consent language, recording of phone calls, and how long Angela keeps a lead are operational details the office must confirm. They are not fully specified by this website.
We do not sell website inquiries. We share them with the vendors that host the site, deliver the message to the office, process a payment, or provide a map, and when the law requires it.
Meta lead forms
Advertisements may use Meta’s own forms, which are not forms on this website. If you submit one, Meta provides the contact details to the office workflow. The privacy link on those forms should point here. Do not put medical history in an ad form.
Analytics and advertising tags
When the deployed site is configured with the related environment variables, pages may load Google Analytics and the Meta Pixel. Those tools can receive a page view. Some forms also send a lead event that includes the name of the form, such as the service page you used. That can reveal an interest in a health service even though the form does not send your name, phone, or message to those tools.
We are reviewing whether those events should stay on medical and booking pages. Until that review is finished, treat the tags as active when the site is configured to load them. You can block cookies in your browser, use the platform opt-outs those companies publish, and call us if you want to ask what a specific submission contained. A cookie banner is not a medical authorization.
What this website does not do
There is no automated medical chat on this site. We do not state that phone calls are recorded, because that is an office-phone question, not a website feature. The optional “where should I start” guide on the home page stays in your browser. It does not save a health profile.
Other companies on the page
- CareCredit, if you apply or use the calculator. Their privacy policy covers what you enter there.
- HealthePayment, if you pay a bill.
- Google, if the map loads.
- Facebook, if you follow the social link or the pixel loads.
How long we keep website inquiries
The office keeps inquiry and appointment records long enough to respond, schedule, and meet professional record rules. Ask us if you need the retention period for a specific record. Do not assume a website form is deleted on a fixed number of days.
Your requests
You can use the site without submitting a form. To ask about, correct, or delete information you sent through the website, call the office. We will tell you if a clinical record has to be kept even when a marketing inquiry can be removed. We do not waive rights you have under Maryland or federal law.
Children
This website is written for adults making their own care decisions. Do not submit a child’s information through a public form.
