Privacy Policy
Last updated October 26, 2026
Short version: we only collect what is needed for a clinic to call you back. We share it only with Illinois Orthopedic Network. We never sell it.
Who we are
Chicago Work Injury Doctors (chicagoworkinjurydoctors.com) is an information and advertising website for workers’ compensation care at Illinois Orthopedic Network (ION), 712 North Dearborn Street, Chicago, IL. We are not a medical provider. Questions about this policy go to info@chicagoworkinjurydoctors.com.
What we collect
When you send the appointment form:
- Your first name
- Your phone number
- Where you are hurt (for example, “Shoulder”)
- Whether you reported the injury to your employer
- The date and time you sent the form
We do not ask for medical records, your Social Security number, insurance numbers or your employer’s name. Please do not send them through this website.
When you visit any page:
- Our web host keeps standard server logs, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you open. These are used for security and fixing errors.
- If you arrive from a Google ad, we set one small cookie that records which ad or search term brought you here. It lasts 90 days and is only used to see which ads work.
- We may use Google Ads tags to measure whether an ad led to an appointment request. Google’s own privacy policy applies to the data Google collects. You can manage ad settings at adssettings.google.com.
How we use it
- To pass your request to Illinois Orthopedic Network so their team can call or text you about an appointment
- To count how many people ask for help and which ads or pages they came from
- To keep the website secure and working
Who we share it with
We share your form details with Illinois Orthopedic Network only, because you asked to be contacted about an appointment. After that, ION’s own privacy practices apply to your care. See ION’s policy at ionorthopedics.com.
Our hosting and email providers process the data on our behalf to run the site. We do not sell, rent or trade your information. We do not share it with employers, insurers, attorneys or other clinics.
Calls and texts
By ticking the consent box you agree that ION may call or text you about your appointment request. Message and data rates may apply. You can ask them to stop at any time by telling the caller, replying STOP to a text, or emailing info@chicagoworkinjurydoctors.com.
How long we keep it
We keep appointment requests only as long as we need them to arrange care and measure our advertising, and delete them within 24 months.
Your choices
You can ask us what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email info@chicagoworkinjurydoctors.com with the phone number you used and we will reply within 30 days.
Security
The site only runs over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). Request records are stored in a location that cannot be opened from the web. No system is perfectly secure, so we collect as little as possible.
Children
This website is meant for adults. If you are under 18 and were hurt at work, please ask a parent or guardian to contact the clinic with you.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle your information, we will update this page and the date at the top.
