PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: May 12, 2018

We take your privacy seriously, and that is why we’re serious about safeguarding your personal information. This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes how Wyatt North Publishing, LLC (“Company”) collects, uses and shares personal information of consumer users of our website located at www.wyattnorth.com, and information we store using third-party partners (collectively, the “Site” or “Wyatt North”).

WHAT WE COLLECT

There’s a small amount of information we need to collect about you so that we can operate Wyatt North. This information may include:

  • Information You Give Us. We collect your email address, country of residence, the genres of books you like to read as well as other information you directly give us on Wyatt North. If you provide it, then this information may also include your name.
  • Information Automatically Collected. We automatically log information about you and your device. For example, when using the Sit, we log your IP address, operating system type, browser type, the referring website, pages you viewed, and access times. We also collect information about actions you take when using our Sit, such as advertisements you click; and which sections of our Site you explore.
  • Cookies. We may log information using “cookies.” Cookies are small data files stored on your device by a website. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your device until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on Wyatt North. We do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.

WHAT WE DO WITH THIS INFORMATION

We use the information we collect in the following ways:

  • To operate, maintain, and improve our Site and services.
  • To send you promotional communications. These may include the deals email, social notifications, surveys, or other newsletters. You may opt-out of receiving such information at any time: such marketing emails tell you how to “opt-out.”
  • To send you administrative communications. These may include administrative emails, confirmations, technical notices, updates, and security alerts.
  • To respond to your comments and questions and provide you with user support.
  • To track and measure our advertising.
  • To protect, investigate, and deter against fraudulent, unauthorized, or illegal activity.

HOW WE SHARE THIS INFORMATION

We may share your personal information as follows:

  • Third Parties Designated by You. We may share your personal information with third parties where you have provided your consent to do so.
  • Our Third-Party Service Providers. We may share your personal information with our third-party service providers who provide services such as data analysis, payment processing, information technology and related infrastructure, email delivery, and other similar services. We require that our third-party service providers use your personal information only to provide the services we’ve requested.
  • Corporate Restructuring. We may share personal information when we do a business deal, or negotiate a business deal, involving the sale or transfer of all or a part of our business or assets. These deals can include any merger, financing, acquisition, or bankruptcy transaction or proceeding.
  • Other Disclosures. We may share personal information as we believe necessary or appropriate (a) to comply with applicable laws; (b) to comply with lawful requests and legal process, including to respond to requests from public and government authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements; (c) to enforce our Policy; and (d) to protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of you or others.

ANONYMOUS DATA

When we use the term “anonymous data,” we’re referring to data and information that doesn’t permit you to be identified or identifiable, either alone or when combined with any other information available to a third party.

We may create anonymous data from the personal data we receive about you and other individuals whose personal data we collect. Anonymous data might include analytics information and information collected by us using cookies. We make personal data into anonymous data by excluding information, such as your name, that makes the data personally identifiable to you. We use this anonymous data to analyze usage patterns in order to make improvements to Wyatt North.

INFORMATION THAT MAY BE PUBLICLY VISIBLE

We store your information in a safe way, using a partner, called Mailchimp, who follows a similar and stringent set of policy standards. We will never purposely make any of your information publicly visible.
