Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 19, 2026

Who we are

This privacy notice is for Hair Restoration & Aesthetics of Buffalo ("HRA of Buffalo," "we," "us," "our"), a medical practice located at 4777 Maple Rd, Suite 4, Buffalo, NY 14221. You can reach us by phone at (716) 500-4247 or through our contact page.

What this policy covers

This policy explains how we handle information collected through this website (www.hrabuffalo.com). It does not cover information collected offline, by phone, or during in-office visits. Information you share with Dr. Wisiorek or our clinical staff during a consultation or procedure is governed by applicable medical privacy laws, including HIPAA where it applies.

Information we collect from the website

Contact-form data. When you fill out a form on this site, we collect the information you choose to provide (typically name, email, phone number, and the message you send). We use it to respond to you and to follow up about services you asked about.
Analytics data. If you accept analytics cookies in our consent banner, we use Google Analytics 4 to collect general information about how visitors use the site (pages viewed, approximate location, device type, referring site, aggregated engagement). IP addresses sent to Google are anonymized. If you decline, these cookies are not set and this data is not collected.
Server logs. Our web host automatically records basic request information (IP address, user agent, URL requested, timestamp) for security, troubleshooting, and uptime monitoring. These logs are kept for a short, routine retention period.
Cookies and similar technologies. We use a small number of cookies: a session cookie to remember your consent choice (strictly necessary), and Google Analytics cookies (optional, only after consent).

How we use your information

To respond to inquiries and schedule consultations.
To send follow-up information you asked for (consultation details, financing info, pre- or post-op instructions).
To operate, secure, and improve this website.
To comply with our legal and professional obligations.

Who we share it with

We do not sell personal information. We share information only in these cases:

Service providers that run parts of the website on our behalf — such as our hosting provider, the email service that delivers form notifications to our team, and Google Analytics (if you accept). These providers are contractually limited to using the information for the services they perform for us.
Legal reasons. If required by law, subpoena, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our patients, our team, or the public.

Your choices

Cookies / tracking. You can accept or decline analytics cookies in the banner that appears on your first visit. You can change your choice later by clicking "Manage Cookie Preferences" in the footer. Declining does not affect your ability to use the site.
Access, correction, deletion. You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, correct it, or ask us to delete it. Contact us at (716) 500-4247 or through our contact page and we will respond within a reasonable time (generally 30 days). We may need to verify your identity before acting.
Do Not Track. Our site honors your consent banner choice regardless of the browser Do Not Track signal.

California residents (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident and the CCPA/CPRA applies to our data processing, you have the right to know what personal information we collect about you, to request deletion, and to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information. We do not sell personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us using the information above.

EU / UK residents (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are visiting from the European Union or the United Kingdom, you have additional rights under the GDPR and UK GDPR, including the right to access, correct, delete, port, or restrict processing of your personal data, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. We rely on your consent for analytics cookies, and on legitimate interest (operating a professional website) and contract performance (responding to inquiries) for other processing. You may lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

Health information

This website is informational. Please do not send sensitive health information through our contact form. If you need to share health details with Dr. Wisiorek or our clinical staff, call us at (716) 500-4247 and we will arrange a secure channel.

Security

We use TLS encryption on the entire site, strict transport security, modern browser security headers, and limited retention of form submissions. No internet transmission is ever 100% secure, but we take reasonable technical and organizational steps to protect the information you share with us.

Children

This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided information to us, contact us and we will delete it.

Links to other sites

Our site links to other websites, including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and our patient portal. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. Please review their own privacy notices.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when the current version took effect. Material changes will be announced on our homepage or by email where appropriate.
