Privacy Policy Statement

• 

This is the web site of Bookmark Self Publishing (A division of E-State Media Group).

We are extremely concerned with protecting your privacy and confidentiality. We understand that users of our site are also concerned about their information and privacy. We want to assure all our clients that their information and data will not be used for any purpose unintended by them, and will not be provided to any other third party organizations. Our policy is both specific and strict. If you believe our policy falls short of your expectations or that we are failing to abide by our policy, please inform us. We are constantly vigilant for credit card or other fraud. All payments to us with Credit Cards are processed with InternetSecure (www.internetsecure.com) through their secure server. We do NOT at any time have access to any of your credit card information, unless you are placing a phone order. Credit card information supplied by phone will be destroyed immediately after we have confirmed your order has been accepted or declined by the appropriate credit card authority.

Information may be unlawfully available to hackers and snoopers. We take no responsibility for this. The risk is no different from a similar risk in a bricks and mortar establishment. Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any personally identifiable information collected at this site. If this policy should change in the future (though most unlikely), then we shall provide notification in advance, and the opportunity for all users to indicate whether or not they would prefer that we do not provide the information to third parties as proposed.

We do not knowingly market to or sell to children.
