Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 26 July 2025

Important Disclaimer: The content of this website is strictly scientific and informational in nature and does not substitute for psychotherapy or medical advice. The team consists of certified professionals; however, this platform does not operate as a healthcare service provider.

At AI Psychotherapy Lab, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect and how we handle it.

What Information We Collect

When you visit our website, we collect basic information like which pages you view and how long you stay. We also use Google Search Console to understand how people find our site and what search terms bring them here. This helps us understand what content is most useful for researchers and visitors.

We do not collect your personal information except in cases of collaboration. If you contact us for potential research collaboration through our contact form, we will ask for your name, email address, and phone number to verify your identity and prevent fraud. For any research studies, we only collect the specific information outlined in our study protocols - and only with your clear permission.

How We Use Your Information

We use the basic website analytics to improve our research platform and understand what content is most useful for the research community.

In cases of collaboration, we will communicate with you via email regarding the collaboration and respond to any questions you may have. We do not send newsletters, marketing emails, or regular updates unless specifically related to an active collaboration.

We don't sell your information to anyone. We don't share it with companies for marketing purposes. The only people who can access your data are our research team members who need it for legitimate research purposes.

Important Note About Our Work

AI Psychotherapy Lab is strictly a research organization operated by licensed professionals with doctoral degrees in psychology and psychotherapy. Our team consists of qualified and licensed psychotherapists who conduct legitimate scientific research in accordance with established ethical standards.

This laboratory serves exclusively scientific purposes and functions as a platform to showcase our team's research activities and share information with fellow researchers. When we conduct studies, our only public output will be sharing published research findings after they have been peer-reviewed and published in scientific journals.

This website serves as a forum to present our team's ongoing work and provide the latest updates about our research as informational resources for the research community.

This work is entirely independent and receives no external funding. We study how AI might be used in mental health research - we don't provide therapy, counseling, or any kind of clinical treatment. If you're looking for mental health support, please contact a licensed professional in your area.

Our research strictly follows ethical guidelines and professional standards governing psychological research.

Communication and Collaboration

All initial contact should be made through our website contact form. After you submit your inquiry through the form, we will follow up with you via email.

For research collaborations, we maintain records of our professional correspondence as part of our research documentation. However, if you request deletion of your emails and messages, we will remove them from our systems. In cases where active collaboration is taking place, we will retain only the essential documentation related to the collaborative work.

Your Rights and Choices

You can ask us what information we have about you, request corrections, or ask us to delete your information. You can also unsubscribe from our emails at any time. For communication deletion requests, please see our Communication and Collaboration section above.

Policy Updates

We may update this policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we'll post them here on our website.
