Privacy Policy

A. Overview.

One of the priorities of RosettaBooks is to protect the privacy and security of all its users. Please read the following statement of our policy to understand how we treat the personal information that you give to us.

If our privacy policy changes as our business evolves or as the law requires, these changes will be listed on this page so that by periodically checking this page you always will know how we use your personal data. Your continued use of RosettaBooks is your agreement to abide by any changes to our policy.

As you may have noticed, our website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that RosettaBooks is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of other websites. This privacy policy only applies to information collected from you by RosettaBooks.

B. Types of information RosettaBooks gathers about you.

1. Information you give us: Though you can always opt not to give us certain information, RosettaBooks saves the information you choose to enter on our website or provide to us in any other way. For some of our services, RosettaBooks requires certain information and your decision not to give us such information will prevent you from taking advantage of those services. The information you provide is used, among other things, to respond to your requests, customize your shopping experience on our website, and communicate with you.

2. Cookies: As many other websites do, we use "cookies." Generally, "cookies" allow us to receive and store certain types of information when your web browser accesses our website. See below for more information regarding "cookies."

3. E-mail communications: When we send you an e-mail, we may receive a confirmation that you have opened the e-mail if your computer supports such capabilities. We do this to make our e-mails to you more useful and enhance your experience on RosettaBooks. To avoid sending you unnecessary e-mails, we may compare our customer list with lists from other companies who may send you e-mails. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please reply to our e-mail with "Delete from mailing list" in the subject line of the e-mail.

4. Information from other sources: To better customize our service to your personal preferences, we may acquire information about you from other sources. We also sometimes receive updated information from our technology partners or other sources so that we can correct our records and deliver your next communication more easily.

5. Other data collected: In addition to the information listed above, RosettaBooks may obtain additional personal data about you as well as aggregate information that may include:

· Information you provide when registering to receive goods or services from us or one or more of our partners.

· Information you provide when entering a contest, sweepstakes or promotion sponsored by RosettaBooks and/or one of our partners.

· Information you provide when filling out a user survey.

· Information you provide if you contact our Customer Service center.

· Data related to the areas of RosettaBooks that you visited and how much you frequent those areas. This includes co-branded sections of RosettaBooks that are a part of our overall business.

C. RosettaBooks´ use of your personal information.

We recognize that the information we receive from you is vital to our business, and we generally are not in the practice of selling it to others. We will share customer information only in the limited situations set forth below.

1. Affiliated businesses: RosettaBooks works with a number of affiliated businesses, such as Overdrive, Inc. (d.b.a Content Reserve) Some of our affiliates work with us to operate stores, provide services, or sell product lines. You will always know when another company is involved in any transaction you make and when we share information related to a transaction with that business.

2. Agents: In order to provide the most efficient service to you, we use other companies and individuals to assist us with, among other things, fulfilling orders, sending correspondence, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer. Due to the nature of these functions, it is necessary that these companies and individuals have access to certain of your personal information, but rest assured that they may not use it for any other purposes.

3. Sweepstakes, promotions and sponsorships: Unless you opt out during sweepstakes registration or by editing your user preferences, RosettaBooks may disclose your personal information to selected companies, including sponsors of promotions or sweepstakes available through RosettaBooks. Special sponsor promotions may often involve a request for additional information. By submitting this additional information, you give RosettaBooks permission to transfer this information to the sponsors so they can fulfill your request or administer the promotion. You should review any applicable sweepstakes and promotion rules or user agreement to see what information is being shared. If personally identifying data about you will be shared, we will disclose this to you before we collect or transfer the data.

Unless you have opted out of receiving special offers or e-mails from selected third parties, we also may provide a report to our sponsors which tells them who responded to a particular offer. For example, we might send you an e-mail offering you a discount on a particular service. If you click on that e-mail or accept an offer or discount contained therein, we may provide the sponsor with the information necessary to provide you with that discount.

4. Aggregate information: We use anonymous, aggregated data to study site traffic patterns. Such information allows us to further personalize our offerings to you including advertising and promotions. RosettaBooks may disclose certain aggregate data to third parties, such as our advertisers. We provide aggregate data to assist our advertisers in determining how to promote their products. Here is an example of aggregate data that we might disclose to third parties: "100,000 people clicked on this link and of those people, 15% were registered users below the age of 25." As you can see, such aggregate data in no way identifies you personally. We do not tell our advertisers who it was that saw or clicked on their advertisements unless you have given us your permission.

5. Compliance with the law/ Protection of RosettaBooks, our users and others:: RosettaBooks may disclose your personally identifiable information if we believe in good faith that we are required to do so in order to comply with statutes or regulations, a subpoena, or other legal process. RosettaBooks may also disclose account information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms of Service or to protect the safety of RosettaBooks, our users and the public.

6. No other uses without your consent: You will always receive notice from us if your personal information is to be shared with any third parties other than as discussed above. You will always have the opportunity to opt out of receiving e-mails from RosettaBooks or from having your personally identifiable information shared with selected companies. If you elect to "opt out" we will not share your personal information with third parties or send you e-mails. However, RosettaBooks may continue using your data for internal purposes, to conduct sweepstakes and promotions, to enhance our site or to comply with state and federal laws.

D. More about cookies.

A cookie is a piece of set stored by your Web browser on your hard drive. If you register on our site, we use cookies to record that information. This allows you automatically to re-enter membership-only sections of the website without having to retype your username and password. We also use cookies to keep track of your order information as you step through the ordering process, to avoid errors if you are interrupted while ordering. If you decide not to accept cookies, you can still use our site but these features will not work properly.

Like most websites, RosettaBooks also uses cookies to help us analyze standard statistical information about site visits. We learn how many visitors come to our site, which pages are most popular, what paths visitors take to reach our site and move through it and what Web browsers are being used. However, none of this information is associated with you personally. We use it to help us make our site as interesting and useful to you as we can.

Other parts of our site that may use cookies are the advertisements. We may use an outside ad company to display ads on our site. Cookies received with banner ads may be collected by a third party ad company and we do not have access to this information. Some of the customer data generated from these cookies is shared with the advertising companies on an aggregate basis only. Again, none of this information will identify you personally.

E. Security of your personal information.

RosettaBooks takes precautions to protect your personal information. When you submit sensitive information to us, your information is protected both on-line and off-line.

When our registration or order form asks you to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is stored on secure servers that are protected by firewalls and located within secure, locked facilities.

It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

F. Changing your personal information.

You may update your personal information whenever you want simply by emailing CorpRelations@RosettaBooks.com.

G. Rosetta Book´s policy regarding children´s privacy.

RosettaBooks is committed to the safety of children. Children under the age of 18 may not participate in RosettaBooks sweepstakes or promotions. If children under 18 use RosettaBooks, they should ask a parent for permission before sending any information to the site, or sending personal information to anyone on-line. If you are under the age of 13, you may not use this website.

§ RosettaBooks will not request or knowingly collect from a child any information that can be traced to the child, such as an e-mail address, name or information about the child´s family.

§ RosettaBooks will not knowingly use personal information from children under the age of 13 for any marketing or promotional purposes.
