This Privacy Notice is about the website tinavantylerbooks.com, concerning the work of author Tina Vantyler. We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors, readers, and service users. Any data you send us will be used in a lawful way, we won’t do anything with it that we did not tell you about in advance, and it will all remain private unless you give us permission to send specific data to a third party for a good reason. We use cookies, or pieces of code that record your preferences, on our website, but we will ask for your consent to their use when you first visit us. There are laws around the world restricting what we can do with your data (your email address, name, phone number, and other identifying information if you provide them to us), and the policy below complies with current laws.
Cookie Use
A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before then; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user. We use cookies to identify you when you visit our website. They may also be used to help us to display advertisements relevant to you and to help us analyze the use and performance of our website and services. Our service providers, such as Google Analytics, use cookies that may be stored on your computer when you visit our website. Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies and to delete them. The methods for doing so vary from browser to browser, and from version to version (see Where to Change Your Cookie Settings, below).

WordPress sites automatically collect data from visitors such as: IP address, referring URL, time of visit, browser language, and country code.

To monitor traffic to this website, this site uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics’ cookies track information such as which pages visitors look at, how long they spend on each page and the site itself, how visitors found their way to the site and the country they’re in.
