Privacy Policy

Last updated on May 11th, 2025

Welcome to CHS Awareness. I’m a real person, not a big company. I do my best to protect your privacy and treat your information with care, but I’m only human. If you have questions, concerns, or spot something I could do better, please reach out — I want to get it right.

Who I Am

CHS Awareness is a passion project run by me, Timothy Suwityarat, who cares deeply about providing honest, stigma-free information and support for people navigating Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS). I’m not a doctor, lawyer, or a corporation — just someone who wants to help.

Kids’ Privacy

This site isn’t meant for kids under 16. If you’re a parent and think your child has shared info with me, let me know and I’ll remove it.

Sometimes I link to other sites or resources. I can’t control what they do, so check their privacy policies if you visit them.

Changes & Contact

I might update this policy as I grow or laws change. I’ll always try to be clear and upfront about what’s new.

Questions? Suggestions? Email me at [email protected]. I’m here to help, and I appreciate your trust.
