Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-06-18

DetoxFinders ("DetoxFinders," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website at detoxfinders.org (the "Site"), a free directory of detox, rehab, and addiction treatment facilities in the United States. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to this Policy.

Information we collect

DetoxFinders does not require you to create an account, and we do not ask you to provide personal information to browse the directory. We collect information in two ways:

• Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and our third-party providers automatically record technical data such as your IP address, browser type and language, device type, referring/exit pages, the pages you view, and the date and time of your visit. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies.
• Information you choose to provide. If you contact us or submit a facility through the "List Your Facility" page, we receive the information you send (such as a name, email, phone number, or facility details).

Cookies and similar technologies

We and our third-party partners use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to operate the Site, understand how it is used, and serve and measure advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may affect how the Site works.

Advertising

We use Google AdSense, a third-party advertising service provided by Google, to display ads on the Site. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this and other websites.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• You can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info (US) or Your Online Choices (EU).
• For more information about how Google uses data, see Google's Privacy & Terms.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. Google Analytics collects information such as pages viewed and general interaction data. Learn more at Google's Privacy Policy, and opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Consent for users in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we use a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) to request your consent before storing or accessing cookies used for personalized advertising and to share data with advertising partners. You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the consent controls presented on the Site.

How we use information

• To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its directory listings;
• To display and measure advertising;
• To analyze traffic and usage trends;
• To respond to inquiries and facility submissions;
• To protect against fraud, abuse, and security issues, and to comply with law.

How information is shared

We do not sell your personal information. We share information with service providers that help us run the Site and serve ads (such as Google for advertising and analytics), and we may disclose information if required by law or to protect rights and safety. Facility data shown on the Site includes information from public sources, including SAMHSA's findtreatment.gov.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to opt out of certain processing (for example, under the EU/UK GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act). To exercise a right, contact us using the details below. You can also use the browser, ad, and analytics opt-out tools linked above.

Children's privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us.

Data retention & security

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Medical disclaimer

DetoxFinders is a directory and is not a medical provider. Information on the Site is for general informational purposes only and is not medical advice. Always verify details directly with a facility. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 1-800-662-HELP (SAMHSA National Helpline).

Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when posted, and the "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
