I respect your privacy.

 

The only information I seek to collect on this website is your name and email address. This is for the purpose of sending you updates about my books or blog posts, in the form of an email sent through MailChimp.

 

Email is my primary means of communicating directly with my readers. MailChimp emails regularly include an “opt out” feature for anyone who wishes to no longer receive them. My blog posts average 1-2 per month unless I’m actively promoting a book, when they may increase to weekly.

 

All information I offer on this website, including links to third parties, is intended only for educational, inspirational, and entertainment purposes.

 

The only items I’m seeking to sell are my own books, my own intellectual properties, but money is not collected through this site. Rather, links are provided to third-party online retail sites such as Amazon, Parnassus Books (my local indie bookstore, Barnes & Noble, etc.

 

I do not use Cookies or any other data tracking collection systems of which I am aware. I do use Google Analytics to better understand my market demographic so that I might make sound business decisions. Third party links on this site which may include data tracking collection systems are outside my control.

 

Marketing for my books is not targeted to anyone under the age of 13, and no effort on my part is made to knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 13.

 

I do not, have not, and will not knowingly sell, rent, lease or otherwise transfer your personal information to any outside party.
