Depending on where you reside, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information under applicable state privacy laws. This section describes those rights and how to exercise them.

Rights Under New Jersey Law (NJDPA)

Englewood Dentistry is located in New Jersey. If you are a New Jersey resident, you may have the following rights under the New Jersey Data Privacy Act (NJDPA), which took effect January 15, 2025, to the extent it applies to our processing of your personal information:

• Right to Confirm and Access: You may confirm whether we are processing your personal information and request access to that information.
• Right to Correct: You may request that we correct inaccuracies in your personal information, taking into account its nature and the purposes of processing.
• Right to Delete: You may request that we delete personal information we have collected from or about you, subject to certain exceptions.
• Right to Data Portability: You may request a copy of your personal information in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format.

You may exercise this right by adjusting your cookie and tracking preferences as described in the "Managing Your Cookie and Tracking Preferences" section, including by using a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, which we honor as a valid opt-out request where required by law.

The specific rights available to you, and whether they apply to our practice, depend on the law of your state of residence.
