Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026
Last Updated: August 19, 2026
Sunset Ridge Sober Living (“Sunset Ridge,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the privacy of residents, prospective residents, families, website visitors, and others who interact with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, maintain, protect, and disclose information obtained through our website and communications with Sunset Ridge Sober Living.
Sunset Ridge Sober Living is an independent, unaffiliated, and owner-operated transitional sober living residence for men.
Our Commitment to Privacy
Sunset Ridge Sober Living is committed to handling personal information responsibly. We maintain reasonable administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect information submitted to us from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure.
Sunset Ridge Sober Living is a sober living residence. We do not provide medical detox, inpatient addiction treatment, residential rehabilitation, or clinical therapy as a primary service. Because our role differs from that of a healthcare treatment provider, information submitted to Sunset Ridge should not automatically be assumed to constitute Protected Health Information under HIPAA.
We may still receive private or sensitive information when someone asks about sober living, availability, admission requirements, or a resident. We treat that information with care and use it only for legitimate purposes related to operating our residence, responding to inquiries, and providing requested information.
Information We Collect
We may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you contact us, request information, ask about availability, schedule or request a tour, inquire about sober living for yourself or someone else, or otherwise communicate with Sunset Ridge Sober Living.
Depending on your interaction with us, this information may include:
- Name
- Telephone number
- Email address
- Information submitted through our Contact Us form
- Information related to a sober living inquiry
- Information about preferred move-in timing or availability needs
- Information you voluntarily provide about recovery or prior services
- Communications you send to Sunset Ridge Sober Living
- Other information reasonably necessary to respond to your request
We ask that you provide only the information reasonably necessary for your inquiry. Please avoid submitting detailed medical records, highly sensitive health information, financial account information, Social Security numbers, or other unnecessary sensitive information through general website forms.
How We Use Information
Sunset Ridge Sober Living may use information collected through our website or communications to:
- Respond to questions and requests for information

- Protect the rights, property, safety, and legitimate interests of Sunset Ridge, our residents, and others
We do not use information submitted through our website to provide medical diagnoses, clinical treatment, or medical advice.
Sober Living and Health-Related Information
Because people contact Sunset Ridge Sober Living during recovery, an inquiry may include information related to substance use, treatment history, recovery, medications, or other personal circumstances.
Please provide only information reasonably necessary for us to respond to your inquiry. Sunset Ridge does not require you to submit detailed medical records through our general website contact form.
Information voluntarily provided to us may be used to respond to questions, discuss our sober living environment, explain house expectations, or communicate about potential residency.
Sunset Ridge Sober Living does not represent its website contact forms as a substitute for confidential communication with a physician, therapist, treatment provider, or other healthcare professional.
Information About Other People
Family members, friends, treatment professionals, or other individuals may contact Sunset Ridge regarding someone they believe may benefit from sober living.
If you provide information about another person, please provide only information you are authorized to share and that is reasonably necessary for the inquiry.
Sunset Ridge respects resident privacy. We may limit what we disclose about a current or former resident unless we have appropriate permission or another lawful basis to provide the information.
Contact Forms and Online Inquiries
Our Contact Us page allows individuals to ask questions about Sunset Ridge Sober Living, availability, tours, house expectations, and related matters.
Information submitted through an online form is used to respond to the request and for reasonable business purposes related to that communication.
Users should avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive information through general-purpose website fields. If more detailed information is needed, we may discuss an appropriate way to provide it.
Website Security
Sunset Ridge Sober Living uses reasonable security measures designed to protect information transmitted through our website.
Our website may use HTTPS and SSL/TLS encryption to help protect information transmitted between your browser and our website. We may also use administrative and technical safeguards intended to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of information.
No method of electronic transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. While we take reasonable steps to safeguard information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information
Sunset Ridge Sober Living does not intend to sell personal information in exchange for money.
Certain analytics or advertising technologies may constitute a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under California privacy law depending on how those technologies are configured and whether applicable legal thresholds and definitions apply.
Where Sunset Ridge is subject to applicable California consumer privacy requirements, we will provide any notices, choices, or opt-out mechanisms required by law.
California Privacy Rights
California residents may have certain rights regarding personal information under applicable California privacy laws. The rights available to a particular individual depend on the law, the nature of the information, and whether that law applies to Sunset Ridge Sober Living.
Where applicable, these rights may include the right to:
- Know what categories of personal information are collected

Submitting a Privacy Request
If you would like to make a privacy request concerning personal information maintained by Sunset Ridge Sober Living, please contact us using the information provided below.
We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests. Verification helps protect personal information from unauthorized access or deletion.
Where permitted by law, an authorized agent may submit a request on behalf of another person. We may request documentation confirming the agent’s authority.
Do Not Track and Privacy Preference Signals
Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” settings or other privacy preference mechanisms. Because standards for some browser-based signals continue to evolve, website responses may vary depending on the technology and applicable legal requirements.
Where applicable law requires recognition of a legally valid opt-out preference signal, Sunset Ridge Sober Living will take reasonable steps to honor that signal in accordance with applicable requirements.
Third-Party Websites and Services
Our website may contain links to websites, maps, social media platforms, review services, recovery resources, or other third-party services that Sunset Ridge Sober Living does not control.
When you leave our website or interact directly with an independent third party, that organization’s privacy policy and practices apply. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing personal information.
The inclusion of a third-party link does not necessarily mean Sunset Ridge controls or endorses that organization’s privacy practices.
Telephone Communications
If you call or text Sunset Ridge Sober Living, we may receive your telephone number and information you choose to provide during the communication.
We may use that information to respond to your inquiry, discuss availability, arrange a tour, communicate about residency, or provide other information you request.
Standard telephone or text messaging services may not provide the same level of security as specialized encrypted communications. Avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information by text message.
Email Communications
Email may not always provide a completely secure method of communication. Please avoid sending highly sensitive personal or medical information through ordinary email unless specifically requested and an appropriate communication method has been established.
We may retain emails and related communications when reasonably necessary for business, operational, legal, or recordkeeping purposes.
Resident and Family Privacy
Sunset Ridge Sober Living respects the privacy of residents and their families. We do not publicly disclose private resident information simply because someone asks for it.
Family members may contact us with questions or concerns. However, our ability to discuss information concerning a particular resident may depend on the circumstances, the resident’s permission, applicable agreements, and legal requirements.
We encourage residents and families to discuss communication expectations when a resident enters the home.
Testimonials and Reviews
Sunset Ridge Sober Living may display testimonials, reviews, or resident experiences on our website or marketing materials.
When we directly publish personally identifiable testimonials or photographs supplied by residents, former residents, or families, we seek appropriate permission when required.
Reviews posted independently on third-party platforms remain subject to the policies and privacy practices of those platforms.
Children’s Privacy
Sunset Ridge Sober Living is a men’s sober living residence intended for adults. Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 for the purpose of providing sober living residency.
If we learn that personal information from a child under 13 has been collected through our website in a manner inconsistent with applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to address the information.
Data Retention
Sunset Ridge Sober Living retains personal information for periods reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries, provide requested services, maintain appropriate business records, protect our legitimate interests, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, why it was collected, whether a person becomes a resident, and any legal or operational requirements that apply.
When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it in accordance with our practices and applicable law.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect personal information. These measures may include access controls, secure website connections, software and system safeguards, and reasonable limits on who can access information.
No organization can guarantee that electronic information will never be lost, accessed improperly, or compromised. For that reason, we encourage website visitors to use appropriate caution when sending sensitive information electronically.
