Data Privacy

I am using this policy to let you know how I use your data, and I will make efforts to keep it secure.

The purpose of my free newsletter and associated emails is to showcase my literary work and related activities, and to communicate offers and events.

I will use your name and email address to contact you by email, and by clicking the button to subscribe to my emails, you agree to this use of your personal data. When you subscribe, I may also record your "IP Address" - this helps me to guess at your approximate location for marketing purposes.

I will assume that my Newsletters and associated emails are relevant to you and match your interests as long as you remain subscribed. I use industry standard tools to understand you and ensure my social media adverts are only shown to people who are likely to be interested in Nathan Dylan Goodwin. I have assessed my use of your personal data as having minimal impact on your privacy and I will keep it that way.

I work closely with The Novel Guys Ltd in all matters beyond my intellectual property rights held in the act of writing all my works – that is to say The Novel Guys Ltd manages and undertakes all aspects of (and not limited to) marketing, advertising, distribution, publishing, administration for the trademark Nathan Dylan Goodwin on my behalf. The work undertaken for me by The Novel Guys Ltd is completely in line with this policy and The Novel Guys Ltd acts on my behalf in the use of your data but claims no right to hold, use or pass on your data outside of operating my affairs in line with this privacy policy.

I will not use your name or email address for any other purpose, nor will I pass it on to anyone else. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email that I send you.

If you'd like to find out more about any of this, please contact me at mail@nathandylangoodwin.com or thenovelguys@gmail.com.

Nathan Dylan Goodwin (and by extension, The Novel Guys Ltd) ("I") is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy.

This policy sets out the basis on which any personal data I collect from you, or that you provide to me, will be processed by me. Please read the following carefully to understand my views and practices. By providing your personal data, you consent to the collection, storage and processing of your personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

If, at any time, you wish to withdraw your consent, please use the unsubscribe-hyperlink provided in every email, or contact me, as indicated above.

If you are just browsing my website, please read the wix.com (my chosen webhosts) cookie policy first and check you are happy with your browser settings. I only ever collect the information described out of a legitimate interest which doesn't override your rights, as permitted by Data Protection Law. For the purpose of Data Protection Law, the data controller is The Novel Guys Ltd, c/o RIFT, RIFT House, 200 Eureka Park, Upper Pemberton, Ashford, Kent, TN25 4AZ.

Information which I May Collect from You

I may collect and process the following data about you:

Information you give me

You may give me information about you by taking actions or filling in forms on my website or by corresponding with me by phone, e-mail or otherwise. This includes information you provide when you subscribe to my newsletters, place an order on my website, participate in discussion boards, blogs or other social media on or via my website, access past newsletters and posts, and contact me through my weblinks and forms. The information you give us may include your name, address, e-mail address and phone number, financial and credit card information (although the latter two are handled on my and your behalf by Paypal separately off-site and you should content yourself with their policies in handling your data, financial or otherwise, as no responsibility will be accepted by me for this).

Information I collect about you

With regard to each of your visits to my Website, I may automatically collect the following information:

Technical information, including the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet, browser type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform.
Information about your visit, including the full Uniform Resource Locators (URL) clickstream to, through and from my Website (including date and time); products or services you viewed or searched for; page response times, download errors, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information (such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs), methods used to browse away from the page, and any phone number used to call my customer service number.

My website uses cookies and tracking pixels to distinguish you from other users of my website. A cookie is a small text file sent to your computer or device. A pixel tag is an invisible tag placed on certain parts of my website. It does not leave a footprint on your computer/device. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse my website and also allows us to make improvements. For detailed information on the cookies I use, view the policies available at wix.com.

Uses Made of the Information

I use information held about you in the following ways:

Information you give to me

I will use this information:

To carry out my obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and me and to provide you with the information, products and services that you request from me.
To provide you with information about other products and services I offer that are similar to those that you have already purchased or enquired about, or which you have expressed an interest in.
To notify you about changes to my service.
To ensure that content from my site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.
I will only contact you by email for any of the above purposes, where you have provided your email address or phone number in order to permit us to do so. You can ask us not to communicate further at any time.

Information I collect about you

I will use this information:

To administer my site and for internal operations, including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, statistical and survey purposes.
To improve my site to ensure that content is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.
To allow you to participate in interactive features of my service, when you choose to do so.
As part of my efforts to keep my site safe and secure.
To measure or understand the effectiveness of advertising, which I serve to you and others, and to deliver relevant advertising to you, where you have expressly agreed to receive such advertising.
To make suggestions and recommendations to you about my products or services that may interest you.

Publicly sourced company email addresses

I never obtain individuals’ and company email addresses from public sources (either directly or through a third-party provider) in order to send communications about my products and services and my activities fall outside the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations and EU ePrivacy Regulation provisions, therefore.

Advertising and Analytics

When you use my website, I or a third-party partner may serve you advertisements that may be of interest to you. These advertisements are based on information relating to your access to, and use of, my website and other websites. I use google analytics (and occasionally twitter and facebook analytics) in order to understand the types of people that visit my website and show you relevant advertisements for things you may have looked at on my website. Although, I do not currently use it, I may use the Facebook Pixel in the future and you can find out more about the Facebook Pixel here, including how to adjust your preferences with Facebook.

I also use third party analytics providers like Google Adsense to serve ads to you based on your prior visits to my website and other sites on the internet. You can always opt out of interest-based advertising by visiting Google’s Ad Settings.

How I build my audience profile through Social Media platforms

I work with social and business media platforms including but not limited to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Tumblr and LinkedIn to bring you targeted advertising about my products and services and improve your experience on my website. I may provide them with a list of email addresses and they confirm if they operate accounts with those email addresses. This enables us to provide relevant advertising on each platform to those accounts and to build an audience profile to help my adverts reach other people on each platform who may be interested in my products and services. This is also useful to avoid you being targeted with advertisements which would be inappropriate to you, for example but not limited to, those introducing me to new readers.

If the platform does not have an account with a matching email address, the contract terms under which they act as my processor for this purpose does not permit them to make any further use of the email address I provided.

I believe I have a legitimate interest in customising my social media communications in this way and that there is minimal impact on your privacy. Nevertheless, you can always unsubscribe so that I can no longer share your information with third-party platforms mentioned. Alternatively, if you have an account on any of the mentioned platforms, you can set your preferences via your platform account to avoid unwanted data-sharing.

Disclosure of Your Information

The data, which you enter is needed to provide a good service to you on the Nathan Dylan Goodwin website. I will treat your information with complete respect and will not disclose it to any third party, other than to parties such as credit card processors involved directly in providing a high-quality service to you and as outlined above.

In rare cases, I may also disclose personal information to third parties:

If Nathan Dylan Goodwin or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets.
If I am under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to protect the rights, property, or safety of Nathan Dylan Goodwin, The Novel Guys Ltd, my customers, or others.

Where I Store Your Personal Data

I will keep your personal data secure by taking appropriate technical and organisational measures against its unauthorised or unlawful processing and against its accidental loss, destruction or damage.

The data that I collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who process payment details and who provide support services. Transfers will only be made to countries which are the subject of an adequacy decision of the EU Commission or recipients who have entered into binding contracts with me to comply with the terms of this Privacy Policy and Data Protection Law. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. I will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

All information you provide to me is stored on Wix.com secure servers. Any payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL technology. Where I have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of my site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. I ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although I will do my best to protect your personal data, I cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to my site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once I have received your information, I will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

Updating Information

If you become aware that any information I hold about you is incorrect or there are any changes to your details, please let us know so that I can keep my records accurate and up to date.

Your Rights

You can, at any time, choose not to receive further information. Please just unsubscribe from my newsletters or emails, using the link provided or notify me mail@nathandylangoodwin.com.

Correction right - the right to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data held by me.
Erasure right - you can request erasure of your personal data if it is no longer necessary for us to retain it for the purpose for which it was collected, if you withdraw your consent, if you have objected to my processing and I have no other justification for processing the data, if it was processed unlawfully or if I am under a legal obligation to erase the data. If one of these grounds exists and I have no other legitimate grounds for retaining or processing your data, I will erase it without delay.
Right to object - you can object to my processing of your data. I will stop processing the data unless I can demonstrate a compelling legitimate ground.

I will notify you before lifting a restriction.

Please use the contact details above to request the exercise of any of your rights.

My site may, from time to time, contain links to and from other websites. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that I do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies.
