What Squarespace says
“You can make your Acuity account HIPAA-enabled on the Powerhouse or Premium plans.”
“You must be on the Powerhouse or Premium plan to enable HIPAA-related services and enter into a BAA with Squarespace. We don't enter into outside BAAs for this plan, but custom BAAs are available on an Enterprise plan for an additional cost.”
What the BAA covers and excludes
Covers, in Squarespace's words:
- "Acuity is the only Squarespace feature currently designed to offer services consistent with HIPAA obligations."
- "You must make each Acuity account HIPAA-enabled. An account only becomes HIPAA-enabled when a separate BAA is entered into for that specific account."
Excludes or limits, in Squarespace's words:
- "Your Business Associate Addendum (BAA) doesn't cover other Squarespace features."
- "Calendar syncing with Office 365, Outlook.com, Live.com, Exchange, and iCloud isn't available."
- "Integration with Squarespace Email Campaigns isn't available."
- Third-party integrations: "If you connect Acuity to any third-party integrations, such as Google Calendar or Stripe, it's your responsibility to determine if the integration is acceptable for your business".
What this means for ad tracking
The booking is the conversion most clinics optimize their ads for, so Acuity Scheduling usually sits right where the ad tracking happens. A pixel on a booking or confirmation page can send the page address, the appointment type and the visitor's identifiers to Meta, Google or TikTok.
A BAA with Squarespace covers the patient data Acuity Scheduling holds for you. It does not cover what an ad pixel on a Acuity Scheduling page sends to an ad platform, because the ad platform is a separate recipient that has not signed your BAA. Meta's Business Tools Terms bar health information, so the booking has to reach Meta without it.
Curve Compliance closes that gap: it sends the conversion itself server-side, under a BAA it signs on every plan, so your campaigns keep a conversion signal without a pixel carrying patient data. Book a call to see it on your own funnel.
How Curve helps
- Keep Acuity Scheduling for what it does well. Curve carries the conversion signal to your ad platforms separately, under its own BAA.
- Server-side conversion tracking in place of pixels: conversions reach your ad platforms from Curve's server, not from the patient's browser.
- PHI-like pattern detection checks every event before it goes out, and neutral event names keep conditions and treatments out of what the platforms see.
- Identifiers are hashed with SHA-256 to each platform's requirements.
- Attribution is kept through booking tools, so a booked appointment is credited to the ad that brought the patient in.
- Consent management for your site, alongside the tracking.
- A HIPAA-compliant setup done by Curve's team, in about a week, with a BAA signed on every plan.
