Welcome to the Utopia Plastic Surgery and MedSpa Blog, operated by Dr. Franklin Rose, MD, based in Houston, Texas. We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, share, and safeguard your data when you visit our blog (the “Site”), including through our contact form, cookies, and Google Analytics. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below. Please read this policy carefully.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information:
  • Personal Information: When you use our contact form, we collect details like your name, email address, phone number, and any message you submit. This helps us respond to your questions or comments.
  • Automatically Collected Information: We use cookies and Google Analytics to gather data such as your IP address, browser type, device details, pages visited, time spent on the Site, and referral sources. This information improves our blog and tracks its performance.
  • Usage Data: As a blog, we may log general activity (e.g., page views or clicks) to understand reader interests and enhance content.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we discover such data has been provided, we will delete it promptly in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information for these purposes:
  • To reply to inquiries or comments submitted via the contact form.
  • To improve the Site’s design, content, and user experience.
  • To analyze visitor behavior and trends using Google Analytics (e.g., which posts are most popular).
  • To maintain Site security and functionality.
  • To comply with legal obligations or protect our rights, if needed.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our Site uses cookies—small files stored on your device—to enhance your experience. These include:
  • Essential Cookies: Required for basic Site operation, such as form functionality.
  • Analytics Cookies: Managed by Google Analytics to track how visitors interact with the Site (e.g., page views, session duration). This data is anonymized where possible.
  • Preference Cookies: Remember your settings (if applicable) for future visits.
You can control cookies via your browser settings. Disabling them may limit some features. Google Analytics may also use similar technologies (e.g., web beacons) to collect data; see Google’s Privacy Policy for details. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking via their Opt-Out Tool.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share it only in these situations:
  • Service Providers: With third parties like Google Analytics, hosting providers, or email services that help us run the Site, under agreements to keep your data confidential.
  • Legal Compliance: If required by law, subpoena, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of others.
  • Business Transfers: If the blog or practice is sold, merged, or transferred, your data may be included in that process.
Note: If you submit health-related inquiries via the contact form, we treat such information with care and aim to align with privacy best practices, though this blog is not a direct medical service platform.
5. How We Protect Your Information
We use reasonable safeguards, such as SSL encryption for data transmission and secure storage, to protect your information. However, no online platform is fully immune to risks, and we cannot guarantee absolute security against breaches or unauthorized access.
