By giving us this information, you consent to this information being collected, used, disclosed, transferred to the United States and stored by us.
Information we collect automatically: When you use our newsletter services or browse one of our websites, we may collect information about your visit to our websites, your usage of the services, and your web browsing, including, but not limited to, your operating system, your browser ID, your browsing activity, your IP address, and other information about how you interacted with those websites and other websites linked through our site. This information may be collected as a part of log files and/or through the use of cookies or other tracking technologies, such as pixels and web beacons, to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, serve targeted advertisements, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.

We may also obtain information about you—including, but not limited to, demographic information, device information, location, and online behavioral data—from third party sources, such as public databases, social media platforms,—including, but not limited to, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube—third party data providers and our joint marketing partners and Amazon, Nook, and iBook affiliate sites. We take steps to ensure that such third parties are legally permitted or required to disclose such information to us, but any information, communications, or materials you submit to us via a social media platform is done at your own risk without any expectation of privacy. Your interactions with those features and platforms are governed by the privacy policies of the companies that provide them. Any information we receive from any of these sources, we may use, alone or in combination with other information we collect, to enhance our ability to provide relevant marketing and content to you and to develop and provide you with more relevant products, features, and services. We may also collect certain information in addition to information described elsewhere in this policy from mobile applications, such as the type of device and operating system you use, how often you use the application and other performance data.

USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may use and disclose personal information for the following purposes:
To send you informational and promotional content in accordance with your marketing preferences. For example, if you have opted in to our newsletter, you will receive emails about new book releases, book sale information, review requests, and other related information. These emails will be coming through a third party service, such as Mailchimp or Mailerlite, which requires adding your information to those newsletter sites. You can stop receiving our emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in every email we send. We may also use your personal information to advertise our newsletter or website to other users or potential users like you. We may also partner with third party advertising networks and exchanges to display advertising on our websites or to manage and serve our advertising to you on other sites, including, but not limited to, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. We may share your personal information for the purpose of serving you ads on these other platforms.
To send you system alert messages. We may inform you of temporary or permanent changes to our newsletter or website, such new features, updates, and changes to our Privacy Policy.
To protect the rights and safety of our subscribers and third parties, as well as our own.
To meet legal requirements, including complying with court orders, valid discovery requests, valid subpoenas, and other appropriate legal mechanisms, to prosecute and defend a court, arbitration, or similar legal proceeding, to provide information to representatives and advisors, attorneys and accountants, or to respond to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, you have the right to consult a third party dispute resolution provider such as TRUSTe. Under certain conditions, you may be entitled to invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have been exhausted.

We may occasionally offer surveys, contests, sweepstakes, or other promotions on our websites, newsletters, or through social media. Participation in these promotions is completely voluntary.

Tritone Literary Publishers takes reasonable and appropriate measures to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the personal information. If a security breach causes an unauthorized intrusion that materially affects you, we will notify you as soon as possible and later report the action we took in response.
