The short version
- One treatment center may pay a flat fee for a single spot that is clearly labeled “Sponsored”.
- The fee never depends on calls, clicks, leads or admissions.
- The sponsor gets no information about visitors. That includes you.
- Free listings are never ordered by money.
- Every listing shows the center’s own phone number. No call routing, no hotlines.
- This site runs no analytics.
Rehab Jacksonville FL is a brand operated by SEO Algorithms LLC. The flat-fee sponsored spot is how the guide is paid for. There are no other paid placements on the site.

| Phone number shown | The center’s own number | The center’s own number |

Why the fee is flat
Florida’s Patient Brokering Act (Florida Statutes, section 817.505) makes it a crime to pay or accept a commission, bonus, kickback or split fee in exchange for sending patients to a health care provider, including addiction treatment programs.
A fee tied to calls, leads or admissions would give a guide like this a reason to push you toward whoever pays the most per person. A flat fee removes that reason. We earn the same whether you call the sponsor, call a different center or call no one at all.
This matters because patient brokering has hurt families in Florida. If you want to know the warning signs, read our page on patient brokering red flags.
What we will never do
- Run a “free 24/7 helpline” that passes your call to whoever pays.
- Swap a center’s real number for a tracking number.
- Sell, share or pass along your name, phone number or messages to any center.
- Move a center up in the free listings because it paid us.
- Hide or shrink the “Sponsored” label.
Because the site has no analytics, we don’t build profiles of visitors and have nothing about you to hand over. If you send us a message through the contact page, it stays with us. Our privacy policy has the details.
Questions about funding
Does “Sponsored” mean you recommend that center?
No. It means the center paid a flat fee for that spot. It is not a ranking or an endorsement. Check any center, sponsored or not, against our rehab checklist.
How much does the sponsor pay?
We don’t publish the fee. What we can promise is how it works: it is flat, it is set in advance, and it does not go up or down with calls, clicks, leads or admissions.
Will a center find out that I visited this site?
Not from us. The sponsor gets no visitor information, and the site has no analytics. When you call a center, you are calling its own number directly.
How can I tell if a listing is paid?
Look for the “Sponsored” label. If a listing does not carry that label, the center did not pay to be there.
Can a center pay to be listed higher?
No. Free listings are never ordered by money. Centers interested in the sponsored spot can read the rules on our sponsor this guide page.
