Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how First Surgery Center ("we," "us") handles information in connection with this physician information website (the "Site"). This Site is a recruitment and information page for physicians and practice leaders. It is not a patient portal, and it is not intended for submitting patient information.

Do not submit patient or health information

Please do not send patient names, medical records, protected health information, or other sensitive personal information through this Site, by text message, or by unencrypted email. Text messages and email are not secure channels.

Mobile information and SMS consent

No mobile information, SMS opt-in data, or consent will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are never sold, rented, or shared with any third party or affiliate for their own marketing. Information may be shared only with subcontractors that support our messaging program (for example, our messaging platform or telephone carrier), and only for the purpose of delivering and supporting the messages you request.

If you text FIRST SURGERY CENTER INC. at (951) 517-3904, you consent to receive informational and promotional text messages from us. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to opt out, or HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of purchase. See our Terms & Conditions for full messaging terms.

Information we collect

• Information you voluntarily provide. If you call, text, or email us using the contact details on this Site, we receive your phone number or email address and whatever you choose to tell us.
• Usage and device information. With your consent, analytics and advertising technologies may collect information such as pages viewed, referring source, approximate location derived from IP address, browser type, device type, and interactions with our call and text buttons.
• Cookies and similar technologies. See our Cookie Policy. Non-essential cookies and tags load only after you consent.

The Site has no account registration, no login, no lead form, no file upload, no payment processing, and no subscription billing. We do not knowingly collect information from children, and the Site is directed to healthcare professionals.

How we use information

• To respond to your call, text, or email inquiry and to schedule a facility tour.
• To measure how our physician recruitment advertising performs, where you have consented to analytics or advertising cookies.
• To maintain the security and reliability of the Site.
• To meet legal, regulatory, or recordkeeping obligations.

We do not use your information for automated decision-making about you.

Artificial intelligence

This Site does not include any AI chatbot, AI assistant, or automated decision-making feature, and no visitor information is transmitted to an AI provider by the Site. Some images or video used for illustration on the Site were produced with AI-assisted creative tools; these are marketing visuals and do not process visitor information.

Categories of third parties

Information may be handled by the following categories of service providers:

• Website hosting and content delivery providers.
• Analytics and tag-management providers (Google Tag Manager and any measurement tags it loads), only with your consent.
• Advertising and campaign-measurement providers (Meta Pixel), only with your consent.
• Telephone and messaging providers that carry the calls and text messages you initiate to us.
• Email providers used by our administrative staff.
• Embedded map and video providers (Google Maps, Vimeo) that receive your IP address and basic request data when their content loads.

We do not sell personal information for money. Use of advertising cookies may be considered "sharing" or "selling" for cross-context behavioral advertising under some state laws; you can decline or withdraw that consent at any time using Cookie Preferences in the footer.

Storage, security, and retention

The Site is served over HTTPS. Inquiries you send us are retained by our administration only as long as needed to respond and to maintain ordinary business records, then deleted. Analytics and advertising data is retained according to the retention settings of the relevant provider. Because this Site holds no database of visitor accounts, there is no visitor profile stored on the Site itself.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a portable copy of personal information we hold about you; to opt out of targeted advertising or the sharing of personal information; to withdraw consent; and to appeal a decision on your request. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

To make a request, call (951) 517-3904 or email Dgascoigne@trinitymsg.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. We aim to respond within 45 days.

International visitors

The Site is operated in the United States and intended for a United States audience. If you access it from outside the United States, your information will be processed in the United States.

Children's privacy

The Site is intended for physicians and practice leaders and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18 through this Site.
