This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from www.joshgirgenti.com (the “Site”).

PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

• “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. Examples of use would be my blog sign up/newsletter and contact forms. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
• “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.

Additionally when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through the Site, we collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers), email address, and phone number. We refer to this information as “Order Information.”

Next, when you download any ebooks, resources, or other media data from the Site, your email, name, address, and or birthdate may be required first in order to receive promotion, download, or tangible resource. This information is added to our Data Lists.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We use the Order Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing any applicable payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Primarily, we use your Personal Information to:

• Communicate with you;
• To operate and maintain the website;
• To send you promotional information, such as newsletters. Each e-mail newsletter will provide information on how to opt-out of future mailings by unsubscribing;
• To send you administrative communications, such as administrative e-mails, confirmation e-mails, technical notices, updates on policies, or security alerts;
• To respond to your comments or inquiries;
• To track and measure website performance;
• To protect, investigate, and deter against unauthorized or illegal activity including screening submissions and orders for potential risk or fraud; and
• When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services.

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).

We also utilize Device Information to craft specific advertising/retargeting and marketing content both on this Site and on various social media platforms where Josh Girgenti is present. Primarily Facebook and Instagram.
