Privacy Notice
Last updated: September 5, 2026
Aliso Viejo Dentals is a service-focused website operated by AVF Dental Group. This notice explains how information submitted through this website is handled.
Information we collect
When you use our contact form, we collect the name, phone number, email address, service interest, and optional message you provide. Our hosting and security systems may also process routine technical information such as IP address, browser details, and timestamps.
How we use information
We use submitted information to respond to appointment requests, answer questions, operate and secure the website, and maintain records related to your inquiry. Contact-form notifications are delivered through our email service provider and may be linked to an external scheduling service when you choose to book online.
Analytics and third parties
We use Google Analytics and Google Ads, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how the site is used. These tools start in a restricted mode. Until you accept optional analytics, they set no cookies and store no identifier on your device. They still receive an anonymous record of the pages you view and the actions you take — such as tapping our phone number or opening our booking page — which can be used for aggregate counts but cannot identify you or follow you across websites. If you accept, they operate normally, may set cookies, and may process device, browser, approximate location, referral, page-view and interaction information. You can change your choice at any time using the reset control below; withdrawing consent returns the tools to the restricted mode described above. The site also links to Zocdoc for scheduling and may display content from Google Maps and Trustindex; those providers apply their own notices when you interact with their services. We never send health information to these tools.
Please do not send sensitive information
This website form is not a secure patient portal. Do not submit medical records, insurance numbers, Social Security numbers, payment details, or urgent medical information. For a dental emergency, call us at (949) 360-9700.
Sharing and retention
We do not sell contact-form information. We share it only with service providers that help us operate the website, deliver messages, schedule appointments, or meet legal and security obligations. We retain inquiry information only as long as reasonably needed for those purposes.
Your choices and questions
You may ask about, correct, or request deletion of information you submitted, subject to applicable recordkeeping obligations. Contact AVF Dental Group at (949) 360-9700 or visit our contact page, email us at [email protected], or reset your analytics preference below. We may update this notice as our website practices change.
