Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 12, 2026

Reading about a brain tumour or a planned radiosurgery is about as personal as it gets, and this site is built to stay light on your data because of it. This policy explains, in plain terms, what American Radiosurgery (“we”, “us”) collects and why. It covers americanradiosurgery.net and not the other sites we link to, which run their own policies.

The short version

We collect as little as we can: what you choose to send us, ordinary technical data needed to serve the pages, and anonymous, grouped statistics about which articles are read. We do not sell your data, we do not build a profile of you, and we do not track you across the web.

What we collect, and why

  • What you send us. If you email us or use the Contact page, we receive your message and whatever you include with it, such as your name and email address. We use it only to reply.
  • Routine technical data. To serve pages securely, our hosting and content delivery network handle ordinary details such as your IP address and browser type.
  • Anonymous statistics. Where we measure traffic, we record grouped figures, for example which articles are read most, so we can tell what genuinely helps and write more of it.

Please keep clinical detail off the record

We ask you not to send your scans, diagnosis, radiosurgery plan, or treatment dates. We cannot interpret them, we are not your clinician, and email is not secure. If you send such detail anyway, we use it only to answer you and do not keep it beyond that.

Cookies and analytics

Where we measure traffic we use a privacy-conscious analytics provider configured to see as little as possible, including anonymised IP addresses and no cross-site tracking. You can clear or block cookies in your browser at any time without losing access to the content.

Sharing

We do not sell your information or use it for advertising profiles. The only parties that handle data on our behalf are the infrastructure providers that make the site work, namely a content delivery network and a privacy-conscious analytics provider. Beyond that, we share personal information only where the law requires it.

How long we keep it

We keep your correspondence only as long as it takes to deal with your enquiry and any sensible follow-up, then remove it. Grouped analytics are kept no longer than we need to read general trends.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may be able to access, correct, delete, or restrict the information we hold, or object to certain uses of it. To exercise any of these, write to us through the Contact page and we will respond as the law requires.

Children

This is a resource for a general adult audience and is not aimed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone below the age at which they can consent to such processing where they live.

Changes

We may revise this policy as the site develops. The “Last updated” date above shows the current version, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept it. If anything here is unclear, please ask through the Contact page.
