Jessica Lawson Enterprises, LLC operates The Bariatric Brain Institute and the website at thebariatricbraininstitute.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, when we share it, and the choices available to you.
By using this website, registering for a workshop, purchasing a product, applying for coaching, joining a meeting, or otherwise interacting with us, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy.

We may collect the following information:
Contact information, such as your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address when you choose to provide it.
Registration, application, and coaching information, including answers you submit through forms, workshop registrations, surveys, applications, questionnaires, or coaching communications.
Health-related information you choose to provide, such as information about bariatric surgery, eating patterns, weight history, goals, symptoms, or related experiences.
Purchase and transaction information, such as the product purchased, amount paid, transaction date, and payment status. Payment card details are processed by our payment provider and are not stored by us in full.
Communications, including emails, text messages, call notes, support requests, meeting chat, and other messages you send to us.

Cookie and advertising information, including identifiers and activity collected through cookies, pixels, and similar technologies.
How We Use Information
We may use information to:
provide workshops, coaching, digital products, resources, meetings, and customer support;
process purchases and deliver what you bought;
manage registrations, applications, scheduling, reminders, and attendance;
send service-related emails and text messages;
send educational or marketing communications when permitted by law;
personalize and improve our website, programs, content, and advertising;
understand how visitors use our website and measure campaign performance;
protect our business, users, systems, and legal rights;
prevent fraud, misuse, and security incidents; and

Health Information and Medical Privacy
The Bariatric Brain Institute provides coaching and education. We are not a medical provider, and our services are not medical care, diagnosis, or treatment. Information you submit through our website, forms, email, text messages, workshops, or coaching services may not be protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, commonly called HIPAA. Do not use these channels for urgent or emergency medical needs.
Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website use, improve performance, and measure or deliver advertising.
Our current tools may include Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity. These providers may receive device, browser, website activity, and identifier information under their own privacy policies. You can manage cookies through your browser settings and adjust advertising preferences through the applicable platform settings. Blocking some technologies may affect how parts of the website function.
We do not sell personal information for money. Some privacy laws may define certain advertising-related disclosures as a sale or sharing. To ask us to limit these uses, contact us at [email protected].
Email and Text Messages
If you receive marketing emails from us, you can unsubscribe using the link in the message. You may still receive transactional or service-related messages connected to a registration, purchase, appointment, or active program.
If you consent to text messages, message frequency varies and message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Consent to marketing text messages is not a condition of purchase. We do not share text-message opt-in data or consent with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may share it with providers that help us deliver and manage messages.
How We Share Information
We may share information with service providers that help us operate our business, including providers for:
website hosting, forms, customer relationship management, email, and text messaging, including HighLevel and LeadConnector;
applications and questionnaires, including Typeform;
payment processing, including Stripe;
video meetings and event scheduling, including Zoom and AddEvent;
analytics and advertising, including Microsoft Clarity and Meta; and
professional services, security, accounting, legal support, and business operations.
These providers may process information only as needed to perform services for us or as otherwise permitted under their own terms and privacy policies.
We may also disclose information when required by law, to respond to lawful requests, to protect rights or safety, to investigate fraud or misuse, or as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of business assets.
Data Retention
We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining business and tax records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, meeting legal obligations, and protecting against fraud. Retention periods vary based on the type of information and why it was collected.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Choices and Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information, or to object to or limit certain uses. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
To submit a privacy request, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. We may retain information when required or permitted by law, and some rights may be subject to exceptions.
Children's Privacy
Our website and services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
Links to Other Websites
Our website may link to websites or services that we do not control. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices.

We may update this Privacy Policy as our services or legal obligations change. We will post the revised policy on this page and update the date at the top. Changes take effect when posted unless a different date is stated.
