Who We Are
This website is operated by Roman Vail Publishing (“we,” “us,” or “our”). We publish and promote The Quiet Laws of Profit by Roman Vail. For privacy-related enquiries, contact us at author@romanvail.com.
What We Collect and Why
We collect only the minimum information needed to provide you with value.
When you submit the email sign-up form on this website, we collect your email address. We use it to send you updates about new books, essays, and releases from Roman Vail. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in any email we send.
Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically collect standard server log data such as your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and pages visited. This data is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the site and to maintain its security. We do not use this data to identify individuals.
We do not collect payment information (all book purchases are handled directly by Amazon). We do not collect your name unless you provide it voluntarily.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services to operate this website:
- Email delivery — Your email address is transmitted to our email service provider for the purpose of delivering the newsletter you signed up for. We choose providers that comply with applicable data protection law.
- Google Fonts — This site loads fonts from Google's servers. Google may collect IP address data when fonts are loaded. See Google's privacy policy for details.
- Amazon — Clicking a “Buy on Amazon” link takes you to Amazon's website. Any purchase you make, and all data you provide during checkout, is governed by Amazon's privacy policy and terms of service. We are not party to that transaction.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes.
