Information we collect and why
- Newsletter subscriptions: When you join our email list, we collect your email address and any other information you choose to provide. Subscription records may include your signup time, IP address, timezone, consent and subscription status. We use this information to send the SparkTrail Press updates you requested, including new releases, free Kindle offers when available, and related book news.
- Messages: When you email us, we receive your email address, message and information you include. We use these to respond and handle your request.
- Website use: Our website and service providers may process IP addresses, browser and device information, pages visited, timestamps, and cookie identifiers to operate and secure the site and measure website use. We use Google Analytics through Google Site Kit for website statistics and Complianz to manage cookie preferences.
- Email engagement: Depending on the newsletter service’s tracking settings and your consent where required, newsletter tools may record opens, link clicks and visits associated with email links. You can unsubscribe or contact us about tracking and your information.
Cookies and your choices
Some cookies support essential website functions; others support statistics or newsletter-related tracking. You can accept or deny optional categories and reopen “Manage consent” to change your choices. See our Cookie Policy for cookie descriptions and durations. Consent choices apply to this website; third-party websites have their own settings.
Newsletters
Joining the list is optional. We use MailPoet to manage subscriptions and newsletters. You can stop receiving newsletters using the unsubscribe link in an email or by contacting us. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal. We may keep the minimum information needed to remember an unsubscribe request and prevent unwanted future mail.
Service providers and external links
We use service providers to host and maintain the website, deliver email, manage subscriptions and cookies, and provide analytics. These include Hostinger, MailPoet and Google. They may process information needed to provide their services. Installed integrations may also support website forms and email delivery. Their handling of information is subject to their applicable terms and privacy notices.
Our book links may take you to Amazon or another external website. Purchases and payment information submitted there are handled by that provider under its own privacy policy. This website does not ask you to enter payment card information to follow a book link. Embedded resources, such as remotely hosted images, may send technical information to their hosting provider when loaded.
We may disclose information when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, investigate misuse or secure the website.
Legal grounds and international processing
Where applicable privacy law requires a legal basis, we rely on consent for requested newsletters and optional tracking where required; legitimate interests for responding to inquiries, maintaining the website and protecting it against misuse; and legal obligations when applicable. Information may be processed in the United States and other countries where our providers operate. International transfers must follow safeguards required by applicable law. Contact us for information about providers and safeguards relevant to your request.
How long we keep information
We keep subscription information while you remain subscribed and as needed to manage consent and opt-outs. We keep correspondence for as long as reasonably needed to respond, follow up and meet applicable obligations. Technical logs and analytics follow the relevant service’s retention settings; cookie lifetimes are described in our Cookie Policy. We review information when handling deletion requests and may retain limited records where legally required or necessary for security or honoring opt-outs.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights to access, correct or delete your information, receive a portable copy, restrict or object to processing, and withdraw consent. You may also complain to your local data protection authority. Send requests to guywann@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Some rights have legal exceptions.
Children and policy updates
Our newsletter is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and remove it where appropriate.
We may update this policy as our website or services change. The date above identifies the latest update.
