Privacy Policy

Ostrich Publishers ( The company, Us, We)  recognizes the importance of privacy to visitors to our website, and we want every user (you) to know how we collect and use information about you when you visit our site. This privacy policy explains what type of information is collected when you visit our site, and how we may use that information.

The Information We Gather
Like virtually all other web servers, our web server automatically creates log files for each visitor who accesses our sites. The access logs do not record a visitor's name, address, phone number, credit card number(s), or any other personally identifying information. Rather, these log files may contain some or all of the following information:
 

  • The date of the visit

  • The time and length of the visit

  • The path taken through the site, including links (such as buy or donate links) that are clicked

  • The browser/device being used

We use this information to aid the technical administration of the site, to report to our grantors about the size of our audience, and to learn how to better serve our web visitors. If you buy an Ostrich book after following a link on our website to another retailer, we receive a percentage of that sale.

This site uses cookies to collect some or all of the above information. Generally, the information we collect does not identify you personally; however, if you do not wish to receive cookies, you may set your browser to reject cookies or to alert you when a cookie is placed on your computer. You are not required to accept cookies when you visit this site.

We do not collect personally identifying information from our website unless you choose to provide that information to us. Visitors under the age of 13 must obtain permission from their parents or guardians before sending any personally identifying information to Ostrich Publishers

Name and Contact Information

If you sign up for our e-newsletter, you may receive e-mail regarding our books, author events, and website; otherwise, we will contact you only if necessary for the purposes above.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise at the time of submission, the personally identifying information you provide will not be sold, shared, or used for purposes other than listed above. You may contact us at any time to request removal from our mailing list or supporter database.
