The following privacy policy applies to all the various touchpoints we collect personal information from the storywiskids.com website, offline and through other sources, unless otherwise noted.

1. The information that we collect

We may collect two types of information about you when you visit storywisekids.com, download resources and tools, contact us, place an order, or in any other communication we may have with you: personal information (such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and credit card number) and, via the Site only, non-personal, aggregate information (such as information regarding the pages on our site you have visited and your IP address).

A. Personally identifiable information
The only personally identifying information that we collect and store about you is the information that you have chosen to provide to us. For example, if you place an order with us, we may collect your name, mailing address, and credit card information. In the alternative, if you register on the website, we may collect your name, store name, your address, store address, e-mail address and other personal information so that we can process your registration. In addition, if you contact us via phone or send us e-mail requesting information about us or on social media or otherwise ask us a question, we may collect your name, phone number, address, e-mail address and other personal information so that we can respond to your request or question. We may also from time to time send you e-mail and postal correspondence regarding products and services that we believe may be of interest to you.

B. Non-personally identifiable information
From the website, we may collect and use non-personally identifiable information about you in the following ways:

• Your Internet Protocol (IP) address or the proxy address of your Internet Service Provider (e.g. AOL, CompuServe, Comcast, etc.);
• The resource on our server accessed as a result of the request, such as the web page, image, etc.;
• The query in the request;
• The name and version of your web browser;
• The content of any sent or received cookie, as defined below;
• The Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) that was accessed before making the request for our web server.

1. Cookies
Some parts of the website may use a “cookie” – a file placed on your computer hard drive allowing our server to log the pages accessed in the website to determine if you have visited before. This cookie captures no personally identifying information. You may set your browser to warn you when placement of a cookie is requested, and decide whether or not to accept it. Please note that by rejecting a cookie some of the features available on the website may not function properly.

2. Referrers, IP addresses and environmental variables
We may also collect information through “referrers,” IP addresses and various environmental variables. A “referrer” is information the web browser passes along to the ABA web server that references the URL from which you came. An “IP Address” is a number used by computers on a network to identify your computer so that data can be transmitted to you. An “environmental variable” may include, among other things, the domain from which you access the Internet, the time you accessed the website, the type of web browser and operating system or platform used, the Internet address or the website you left to visit our website, the pages you visit while at our website and the Internet address of the website you then visit. We may collect IP address information in order to administer the website and to gather broad demographic information.

2. Sharing information with third parties

A. Disclosure of information by us
We may share your personally identifiable information with any affiliates, partners, agents or other parties whose products and services may be of interest to you. If you don’t want us to share your information, please see the “CHOICE” section below. We also reserve the right to disclose your personal and non-personal information if we reasonably believe we are required to do so by law; to protect ourself or to protect the rights of another user; to reduce the risk of credit or other kind of fraud; or to comply with a court order.
We may also share your personal and non-personally identifiable information with third parties that help manage our web site, databases, credit card processing companies, and affiliate relationships.

We may share your information with third parties in order to fulfil your request or otherwise complete a service provided to you.
In the unlikely event that all or substantially all of our assets are sold or transferred to another party, your personally identifiable information may be transferred to this acquiring entity.
Though we may also from time to time share your personal information with third parties for research and development purposes, we will not sell your personal information to any third parties, other than as specifically disclosed in this policy.

B. Online blogs and forums
Our website also may offer blogs, chatrooms and forums that allow you to post information for other users to read. You may publish information on electronic bulletin boards generally accessible to other website subscribers. We do not assume any responsibility for the privacy or security of any such communications, and you assume all risks of publishing such information on the system for examination by others, including our employees and persons who gain unauthorized access to the site (“hackers”). Furthermore, any such information published by you will pass through and be stored upon one or more of our servers. We will access the information stored on our server(s) for three purposes: first, to verify that the website program and system is operating properly; second, to police the content of publications in response to any customer complaints about inappropriate content, and, third, to gather information for statistical purposes. No information published by a user is to be considered an expression of opinion or fact by us. We do not adopt, ratify, guarantee or endorse the contents or accuracy of any such publications. If you believe a communication published through such a forum or blog violates your privacy, you may report the same to us by e-mailing us for investigation at [email protected].
