These Terms govern use of this website. They do not replace any admission agreement, clinical consent, financial agreement, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Notice of Privacy Practices, Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations (42 CFR) Part 2 patient notice, release of information, arbitration agreement, or other document signed as part of admission or treatment. If there is a conflict between these Terms and a signed treatment-related document, the more specific signed document will control to the extent permitted by law.

It does not predict, promise, or determine any clinical, legal, immigration, employment, insurance, family, or personal outcome.
Viewing this website, submitting a contact form, calling us, emailing us, texting us, leaving a voicemail, or otherwise communicating with South Asian Recovery Center through this website does not create a physician-patient relationship, therapist-client relationship, attorney-client relationship, fiduciary relationship, or treatment relationship.
A treatment relationship is created only if and when South Asian Recovery Center accepts a person for services and all required admissions, consent, financial, privacy, clinical, and other required documents are completed.

South Asian Recovery Center may provide treatment, documentation, coordination, continuing care planning, or clinically appropriate recommendations when authorized and appropriate, but we do not control how outside entities act or respond.
Submitting a form, calling us, or participating in an admissions screening does not guarantee admission. South Asian Recovery Center may decline admission or recommend another level of care based on clinical appropriateness, safety, withdrawal risk, medical or psychiatric stability, staffing, licensure, program scope, legal requirements, or other factors.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some limitations may not apply.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless South Asian Recovery Center and its owner(s), members, managers, officers, directors, employees, contractors, clinicians, medical director, agents, representatives, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to: your misuse of this website; your violation of these Terms; your submission of false, misleading, unauthorized, or unlawful information; your impersonation of another person or entity; your violation of any law or third-party right; your unauthorized disclosure of another person’s information through this website; or your attempt to interfere with website security or functionality.
This indemnification obligation does not apply where prohibited by law.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this website, these Terms, the Website Privacy Policy, website content, contact-form submissions, website communications, pre-admission inquiries, or any non-clinical interaction with South Asian Recovery Center before formal admission shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration, rather than in court.
This website arbitration agreement applies to claims against South Asian Recovery Center and its owner(s), members, managers, officers, directors, employees, contractors, clinicians, medical director, agents, representatives, affiliated entities, successors, and assigns.
The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS under its applicable rules, unless the parties agree in writing to another arbitration provider. The arbitration shall take place in Los Angeles County, California. Any in-person hearing shall be held as close as reasonably practicable to Encino, California, unless the arbitrator allows remote participation or the parties agree otherwise.
The Federal Arbitration Act and California law govern this arbitration agreement. The arbitrator shall have authority to resolve disputes regarding the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this arbitration agreement, except that a court may decide issues relating to the enforceability of the class-action waiver, representative-action waiver, public-injunctive-relief waiver, or non-waivable public claims to the extent required by law.
Before filing arbitration, the party bringing the claim must send written notice of the dispute to the other party and allow 30 days for informal resolution, unless waiting would bar the claim or urgent injunctive relief is needed. Notices to South Asian Recovery Center must be sent to: South Asian Recovery Center, 5144 Woodley Ave, Encino, CA 91436, with a copy by email to support@southasianrecovery.com.
The parties agree to bring claims only in their individual capacities and not as a plaintiff, class member, private attorney general, representative, or participant in any class, collective, consolidated, mass, representative, or private-attorney-general proceeding, except where such waiver is prohibited by applicable law.
The arbitrator may award any individual relief available under applicable law but may not preside over any class, collective, consolidated, mass, or representative proceeding unless required by law.
The parties waive the right to a jury trial and the right to have covered disputes decided by a judge or jury in court, except for: claims that may be brought in small claims court; proceedings to compel arbitration; proceedings to enforce, confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award; requests for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief; claims to protect intellectual property rights; and claims or remedies that cannot lawfully be required to proceed in individual arbitration.
Any arbitration shall be confidential to the fullest extent permitted by law, except as necessary to conduct the arbitration, enforce an award, comply with law, protect safety, make required insurance or regulatory disclosures, or make disclosures required by court order, licensing authority, healthcare privacy law, or other applicable law.
Each party shall pay arbitration fees as required by the applicable arbitration rules and applicable law. South Asian Recovery Center will pay any arbitration costs it is required to pay under applicable law.
Any claim subject to this section must be brought within one year after the claim arose, unless a longer period is required by applicable law.
If any portion of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable portion shall be severed to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable. If arbitration is unavailable for a particular claim, the parties waive the right to a jury trial for that claim to the fullest extent permitted by law.
The website arbitration clause above is intended to cover website, pre-admission, and non-clinical disputes. It is not intended to replace any separate arbitration agreement signed as part of admission or treatment.
California has specific requirements for arbitration agreements involving medical services and professional negligence. Disputes arising after formal admission to treatment are governed by a separate signed admissions arbitration agreement.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where federal law applies.
If any provision of these Terms is found invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law or severed, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
South Asian Recovery Center may assign these Terms, the Website Privacy Policy, and related rights and obligations in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, sale of assets, change of control, transfer of operations, or similar transaction, subject to applicable privacy and healthcare confidentiality laws.
South Asian Recovery Center may update these Terms at any time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date or last-updated date. Continued use of the website after updates are posted means you accept the revised Terms.
Changes to the arbitration provision will not apply retroactively to claims that accrued before the change, unless permitted by law and agreed by the parties.

WEBSITE PRIVACY POLICY
Effective Date: 8/13/26
Last Updated: 8/13/26
This Website Privacy Policy explains how South Asian Recovery Center (“we,” “us,” or “our”) may collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect information submitted through or generated by this website.
This Website Privacy Policy applies to website use, online forms, admissions inquiries, referral inquiries, and other communications through or related to the website. It does not replace South Asian Recovery Center’s HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices, 42 CFR Part 2 patient notice, admissions documents, releases of information, consent forms, financial agreements, or treatment-related privacy notices.
South Asian Recovery Center may collect information you voluntarily provide through this website, by phone, by email, by text message, by voicemail, through online forms, or through other communications. This may include: name; phone number; email address; mailing address or general location; your relationship to a person needing care; reason for inquiry; information related to admission, referral, screening, or treatment interest; information about family, employment, legal, insurance, immigration, cultural, religious, dietary, or language considerations if you choose to provide it; insurance or payment-related information if applicable; communication preferences; referral-source information; and any other information you choose to submit.
South Asian Recovery Center may also collect limited technical and usage information automatically, such as IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, pages visited, referring website, date and time of visit, approximate location inferred from technical data, website usage data, cookies, pixels, analytics identifiers, and similar information.
Information submitted through a contact, admissions, referral, or consultation form may include your name, contact information, your relationship to the person needing care, reason for inquiry, and information about admissions, treatment interest, family, employment, legal, insurance, or personal concerns.
South Asian Recovery Center uses this information to respond to your inquiry, conduct admissions screening, evaluate program fit, coordinate authorized referrals, schedule calls, communicate with you, operate its services, and comply with legal, clinical, regulatory, safety, and operational obligations.
Do not use website forms for emergencies or highly sensitive information that you do not want transmitted electronically. See the rest of this Privacy Policy for more information.
South Asian Recovery Center may use information to: respond to inquiries; conduct admissions screening; evaluate clinical fit; assess urgency, safety, withdrawal risk, medical stability, and psychiatric stability; coordinate referrals when authorized; schedule calls or consultations; provide information about services; communicate with referral sources or third parties when permitted; maintain website functionality and security; improve website content and user experience; comply with legal, regulatory, licensing, accreditation, clinical, and operational obligations; protect safety, rights, and property; prevent fraud or misuse; maintain records; resolve disputes; enforce agreements; and conduct treatment, payment, and healthcare operations where applicable.
If you become a client of South Asian Recovery Center, information collected as part of treatment, payment, or healthcare operations may be protected health information. Treatment records may be subject to HIPAA, California privacy laws, California medical confidentiality laws, and federal substance use disorder confidentiality rules, including 42 CFR Part 2 when applicable.
This Website Privacy Policy is not a complete HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices and is not a complete 42 CFR Part 2 patient notice. South Asian Recovery Center may provide separate privacy notices, consent forms, authorization forms, releases of information, admissions agreements, financial agreements, and clinical forms as required or appropriate.
If there is a conflict between this Website Privacy Policy and a signed treatment, privacy, authorization, release, or admissions document, the more specific treatment-related document will control to the extent permitted by law.
South Asian Recovery Center is committed to protecting privacy and handling health-related information according to applicable law. Confidentiality is important, but it is not absolute.
Information may be used or disclosed as required or permitted by law, which may include treatment, payment, healthcare operations, written authorization, court orders, medical emergencies, audits, program evaluations, mandatory reporting, threats to safety, suspected child abuse, suspected elder or dependent adult abuse, regulatory oversight, licensure obligations, accreditation activities, health oversight, legal defense, or other legally recognized circumstances.
Substance use disorder treatment records may receive additional protections under federal law. Clients should review all privacy notices, consent forms, releases, and admission documents carefully before signing.
Because South Asian Recovery Center provides substance use disorder treatment, federal confidentiality rules may restrict us from confirming, denying, or disclosing whether a particular person is or was a client, except as permitted by law and applicable authorization.
In some circumstances, South Asian Recovery Center may respond to outside inquiries, including inquiries from family members or community members, in a way that does not reveal whether an identified person has sought or received substance use disorder services.
Written releases for substance use disorder treatment information may need to meet specific federal and state requirements. A general authorization may not be sufficient for certain substance use disorder records.
When South Asian Recovery Center discloses records subject to 42 CFR Part 2 with written consent, we may be required to include a notice restricting unauthorized use or redisclosure. Certain uses or disclosures in legal proceedings against a patient may require specific consent or a court order and other legal process.
South Asian Recovery Center may use vendors and service providers for website hosting, forms, communications, scheduling, billing, collections, compliance, operations, security, technology, analytics, legal services, accounting, insurance, clinical operations, and administrative support.
When required by law, South Asian Recovery Center will use appropriate written agreements, such as business associate agreements, qualified service organization agreements, confidentiality agreements, data processing agreements, or other vendor agreements, before sharing protected information.
Contact forms, email, voicemail, phone calls, and text messages may not be appropriate for emergencies or highly sensitive information. While South Asian Recovery Center uses reasonable safeguards, electronic communications can involve risks, including misdirected messages, unauthorized access, technical errors, delays, interception, storage by third-party providers, or access by others who use your device or account.
By submitting a form or providing contact information, you authorize South Asian Recovery Center to contact you using the phone number, email address, or other contact information you provide, including by call, voicemail, email, or text message. Message and data rates may apply.
You may request that South Asian Recovery Center use or avoid certain communication methods, but we may not be able to guarantee that all communications will occur through a preferred method in every circumstance.
South Asian Recovery Center does not intend to send marketing text messages without any legally required consent. If we use automated or recurring text messaging, we will provide legally required opt-out instructions, such as “Reply STOP to opt out,” and comply with applicable telephone and text-message laws.
This website may use cookies, analytics tools, pixels, embedded content, security tools, or similar technologies to support website functionality, understand website traffic, improve content, evaluate user experience, protect website security, and operate the website.
You may be able to disable cookies through your browser settings, but some website features may not function properly.
If South Asian Recovery Center uses third-party analytics, advertising, call tracking, embedded maps, form tools, pixels, or similar technologies, those third parties may collect information according to their own privacy policies. We configure third-party tools to avoid disclosing protected health information without proper legal authorization.
South Asian Recovery Center will not place advertising pixels, retargeting pixels, session replay scripts, or similar tracking tools on contact, admissions, consultation, thank-you, or form pages unless those tools have been reviewed for HIPAA, 42 CFR Part 2, California privacy law, vendor-contract requirements, and other applicable laws. If our use of analytics tools constitutes a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under California law, we will provide a required opt-out mechanism prior to or concurrent with such use.
Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” signals or similar mechanisms. Because there is not a uniform industry standard for responding to these signals, South Asian Recovery Center does not currently respond to browser Do Not Track signals unless required by law.
Third-party analytics, hosting, security, embedded-map, form, communications, call-tracking, or similar service providers may collect information about your interaction with this website. We configure third-party tools to avoid disclosing protected health information without proper legal authorization.
South Asian Recovery Center may share information as permitted or required by law, including with: our workforce members and authorized contractors; service providers supporting website, communications, operations, billing, compliance, security, or technology; healthcare providers involved in treatment or referral coordination, including detox providers when coordination is authorized; payment-related entities when applicable; professional advisors such as attorneys, accountants, consultants, insurers, and compliance professionals; regulatory, licensing, accreditation, or oversight authorities when required or permitted; emergency responders or healthcare providers in emergencies; courts or legal authorities when required by valid legal process; third parties designated in a written authorization or release; successors or assigns in connection with a permitted business transaction; and others as required or permitted by law.
South Asian Recovery Center may be limited in what it can share, receive, confirm, or deny when substance use disorder confidentiality, HIPAA, California privacy laws, professional ethics, clinical judgment, or program policies apply.
South Asian Recovery Center does not sell client treatment records. We do not sell personal information submitted through admissions or contact forms.
South Asian Recovery Center does not knowingly share protected health information or substance use disorder treatment information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
If we later implement tracking technologies that constitute a sale or sharing of information under applicable law, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide a required opt-out mechanism prior to implementation.
South Asian Recovery Center uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No website, electronic communication method, vendor system, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should use caution when submitting information online or communicating by email, text, voicemail, or other electronic methods.
South Asian Recovery Center retains information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, to maintain records, to resolve disputes, to enforce agreements, to support clinical, operational, insurance, risk-management, licensing, accreditation, and compliance needs, and as otherwise permitted or required by law.
Website inquiry records, communications, admissions-screening records, financial records, and treatment records may be retained for different periods. South Asian Recovery Center may be unable to delete certain records if retention is required or permitted by law.
California residents may have privacy rights under California law, depending on the type of information, the context of collection, South Asian Recovery Center’s legal status, and whether the information is protected by HIPAA, California medical privacy laws, 42 CFR Part 2, or other healthcare confidentiality laws.
These rights may include rights to request access, correction, deletion, information about disclosure practices, or limits on certain uses or disclosures. South Asian Recovery Center may verify identity before responding and may deny or limit requests where permitted or required by law, including where records must be retained for treatment, legal, regulatory, licensing, compliance, safety, insurance, risk-management, or operational reasons. To submit a privacy request, contact us at support@southasianrecovery.com or by mail at the address listed in Section 20.
South Asian Recovery Center’s website and services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this website. If you believe a child has submitted information through the website, contact South Asian Recovery Center.
You may choose not to provide information through this website. However, South Asian Recovery Center may need certain information to respond to inquiries, evaluate admission fit, coordinate services, or comply with legal, clinical, safety, or operational obligations.
You may request changes to communication preferences by contacting South Asian Recovery Center. If you have signed a treatment-related authorization or release, review the specific form for information about revocation rights and limitations.
South Asian Recovery Center may update this Privacy Policy at any time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date or last-updated date. Material changes will be described in the updated policy or otherwise communicated as required by law.
