Serving your needs
To help us help you, it is often important we know a few things about you. However, we will only collect personal information about you that is relevant to our relationship.
Where reasonably possible, we will only collect personal information when you know we are. For example, we may request general information like your name, email address, and contact details when you ask us a question or contact us. We may also need to ask for other information, including your credit card details, shipping address, and computer’s IP address when you wish to purchase a product or a service from us. If you do not provide some of this information, we may not be able to fulfill your request.
Our purpose for collecting personal information should be clear when we collect it. If you are not sure, please contact us by email, or write to us at the address below.
You can generally visit our website without revealing who you are or other personal information. We will not collect any personal information about you when you visit our website except where you are a registered member, or where you knowingly provide us with personal information, for example to join our newsletter and receive a free book.
We may keep track of which sections of our website you visit for internal purposes, including to help us improve our website and other services.
