Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes Plandentic's commitment to protecting your personal data and respecting your privacy. This policy applies to our customers (including those on free trials), website visitors, and anyone who interacts with our services (hereinafter referred to as "you", "your" and "yours").
Our Privacy-First Approach
At Plandentic, privacy is not an afterthought—it's a core principle. We have designed our services with privacy at the forefront, collecting only the minimum data necessary to provide you with excellent service. Here's what this means in practice:
- No tracking cookies: We do not use third-party tracking cookies or invasive analytics that follow you around the web.
- Privacy-friendly analytics: When we implement analytics, we use privacy-respecting tools (Plausible Analytics) that don't collect personal data or use cookies.
- No data selling: We will never sell your personal data to third parties. Ever.
- Minimal data collection: We only collect data that is strictly necessary to provide our dental treatment planning services.
- Your data, your control: You have full control over your data and can request access, correction, or deletion at any time.
- Transparent practices: We are open about what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it.
