Directory Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions
Data we collect
In order to include your listing in the LIT Directory of therapists, we collect personal information from you. This information is limited to the sort of information you might expect to find on a business card – first name, last name, job title, qualifications, email address and website address – in addition to the information you provide regarding your therapeutic specialties, types of clients you work with, languages you conduct sessions through and the methods you deliver sessions through (e.g. video chat, email), links to social media channels and your bio text.
We also keep track of your community membership status, since only paid members of the LIT Community may have a listing in the directory, should you cancel your membership, your directory listing will also be removed.
How we use this information
We use this information to provide visitors to the directory with an easy way to sort and filter through our listings so that they can identify the professionals that are best suited to their needs and to provide them with a way to find out more about you (e.g. your website) and contact you directly. The information you provide will be publicly available on the LIT Directory at https://locationindependenttherapists.com/therapists/.
Please note that your email address will be visible to any visitor to the LIT Directory. LIT cannot assume responsibility for the emails you may or may not receive as a result of being listed in our directory. You may wish to consider the use of anti-spam software on your email client and we encourage you to use your own discretion when vetting potential clients.
The LIT directory contains links to external websites. Once you access an external website from the LIT directory, the collection and use of your personal data will be governed by the privacy policy which applies to that particular site. LIT is not responsible for content posted on external websites.
Terms & Conditions
Although a listing in the directory is only available to members, it is, of course, not a mandatory part of your membership and you may choose not to make a submission to the directory.
If you have chosen to be listed in the LIT directory, a LIT logo will be available for you to download from the directory dashboard. This can be displayed on your website and must link back to the LIT website at https://locationindependenttherapists.com/. If your membership ends, the logo must be removed from your online presence(s).
LIT makes no guarantees with respect to the generation of leads and/or paying clients through your listing on the LIT directory.
LIT cannot be held liable for any loss or damage of any kind resulting from the use of our directory, errors in listings, or the inability to access the directory, be it due to system maintenance, technical malfunction or otherwise.
The therapist-client relationship will be solely between you and your client – LIT does not have any part in that relationship.
Corrections / Updates / Removal
You are responsible for ensuring that the information listed on your profile is up-to-date, accurate, and in compliance with any relevant regulations.
You may edit your profile through the directory dashboard to make any changes. You also have the right to request that we make amendments to your entry or request to be removed from the directory altogether. In such cases, please send a written request via email to community@locationindependenttherapists.com. We endeavor to make all requested adjustments and removals within 2 business days of receipt.
