Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 31, 2026
Who I Am
This website is operated by Pathway Clinical Group, the private practice of Dr. Brandon Lozano, PhD, in San Diego, California. This policy describes how the practice collects, uses, and safeguards information gathered through this public website. Questions may be directed to support@pathwayclinic.com or 619-485-5678.
Information I Collect
- Information you provide — limited details you choose to submit through contact, consultation-request, or optional pre-consultation forms, such as your name, phone number, email, general scheduling preferences, and a brief message.
- Information collected automatically — limited technical and usage information used to understand site performance and general traffic, such as pages viewed, device or browser information, approximate location, and referring site.
- What you should not submit here — this public website is not a clinical portal. Do not submit detailed clinical history, records, diagnoses, insurance or member IDs, Social Security numbers, payment information, or urgent safety concerns through its forms.
How I Use Your Information
- To respond to non-urgent inquiries and consultation requests.
- To coordinate scheduling and administrative follow-up.
- To understand general site usage and improve public information.
- Pathway Clinical Group does not sell website form submissions to advertisers.
Cookies & Analytics
The site may use analytics and essential technical services to understand traffic, maintain performance, and detect errors. Your browser may allow you to limit some cookies or similar technologies. The site may remain usable when those settings are changed, though certain functions can be affected.
How I Protect Information
The practice uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards for the information it handles. No internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure. Website forms and standard email are not appropriate for detailed clinical information, urgent safety concerns, or sensitive records. If you become a client, you will receive information about the practice’s clinical privacy practices and available communication methods.
Your Choices & Rights
You may contact the practice to ask about the information you submitted through this website, request correction of inaccurate contact information, or ask about deletion where appropriate and permitted by applicable requirements. Requests are evaluated in light of operational, legal, and record-keeping obligations.
Children's Privacy
This website is not directed to children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect their information online.
Third-Party Links
Links to external sites (crisis resources, insurance portals, client portal) are provided for convenience. Their privacy practices are their own.
Not an Emergency or Clinical Service
This website, its forms, and email are not monitored continuously. Visiting the site or submitting a form does not create a psychologist-patient relationship. If you are in immediate danger or may harm yourself or someone else, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. In the United States, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
Changes to This Policy
I may update this policy periodically. The effective date above reflects the latest revision.
Online communication
A practical summary for website visitors
This policy applies to information submitted through the public website. It is not a clinical informed-consent document and does not describe every privacy practice that may apply if you become a client. Before services begin, the practice can provide applicable clinical privacy information and discuss available communication methods.
To reduce unnecessary exposure of sensitive information, use public web forms only for general, non-urgent inquiries. Do not rely on standard email or a website form for emergency communication, detailed records, or information that requires prompt attention.
This information is intended to support an informed, non-urgent decision about whether to explore a topic or contact the practice. It cannot account for your complete circumstances, replace a clinical conversation, or determine what service is appropriate for you.
You may take time to review the information, ask general questions, or decide that another resource or provider is a better fit. If you contact the practice, a message or consultation request does not establish a psychologist-patient relationship, confirm an appointment, or guarantee that services will be available.
Reviewing this page does not require any next step. No decision is required today.
