Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This privacy policy provides a comprehensive overview of how I handle data collection, usage, and dissemination on The Rookie Jurist. 

This policy aims to inform you of the types of information I collect, the reasons for collection, and how I use the collected data. 

I am very committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of your personal information, and this policy outlines my practices in detail to ensure transparency and accountability — which are very important to me. 

2. Information Collection

The types of information I may collect include:

1. Contact information, such as name, email address, and phone number.
2. Information about the services you request, including the type of editing and the date the service was requested.
3. For individuals who have reached an advanced stage with me, I’ll send over a detailed template where you must fill in a little about your background and writing goals.
4. Information about your prior publications, if any, and any feedback from previous editors or beta readers.
5. Your manuscript, chapter summaries, character descriptions, and other relevant information. 
6. Testimonials at the end of the process. 

I may also collect non-personally identifiable information such as browser type, location data, and usage information to improve my services and website. This information will be collected through cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies, which are entirely under your control (more on this later). 

3. Use of Information

The personal information I collect will be used to provide the services requested, communicate with you, and improve my services. Here are a few ways I could use your information:

1. To contact you in response to your inquiries.
2. Send targeted promotional materials via my newsletter.
3. Allow me to contact you while the contract is underway.
4. Provide information to help me improve my services.
5. Testimonials will be displayed prominently on their designated page.   

4. Information Security.

I take the security of your information very seriously, and I have implemented technical, administrative, and physical measures to help protect the information I collect from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. 

Despite these measures, I cannot guarantee the security of your information. You should take steps to protect your information, such as keeping your password secure and not sharing any sensitive details with anyone. I would never request your passwords or credit card details, so disregard any such prompt or request. 

Please contact me if you want to see documentation of your information or if you want me to delete any of your private data – including our communication, documents exchanged, and whatnot. 

5. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

I use cookies and other tracking technologies to improve your website experience and understand how you interact with my services. 

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or device when you visit our website. I may use cookies to remember your preferences and track my website’s usage. You can control the use of cookies in your browser settings.

6. Third-Party websites

My website may contain links to third-party websites, and I am not responsible for the privacy practices of these websites. I encourage you to read the privacy policies of any such website you visit before engaging with them.

I will not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. I may, however, share your information with third-party service providers who assist with the website’s operation. 

These third-party service providers are bound by confidentiality agreements and are only authorized to use the information to perform services on my behalf.

Also, if mandated by a court order to provide some information, I will issue a notice in writing to the preferred email address used for communication before proceeding. 

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

I may make changes to this Privacy Policy from time to time. If I make any significant changes, I will notify you by posting the updated policy on the website. 

Your continued use of our website after any changes to this policy means you accept the updated policy.

8. Contact Us

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please email me at preyeiwo@gmail.com or therookiejurist@gmail.com, and I’ll get back to you immediately with more information. 

This Privacy Policy is effective as of April 11th, 2024.

Mediavine Programmatic Advertising (Ver 1.1)

The Website works with Mediavine to manage third-party interest-based advertising appearing on the Website. Mediavine serves content and advertisements when you visit the Website, which may use first and third-party cookies. A cookie is a small text file which is sent to your computer or mobile device (referred to in this policy as a “device”) by the web server so that a website can remember some information about your browsing activity on the Website.

First party cookies are created by the website that you are visiting. A third-party cookie is frequently used in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies and clear your browser’s cache. The “help” feature of the menu bar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to receive notification of new cookies, how to disable existing cookies and how to clear your browser’s cache. For more information about cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information at All About Cookies.

Without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the Website content and features. Please note that rejecting cookies does not mean that you will no longer see ads when you visit our Site. In the event you opt-out, you will still see non-personalized advertisements on the Website.

The Website collects the following data using a cookie when serving personalized ads:

• IP Address
• Operating System type
• Operating System version
• Device Type
• Language of the website
• Web browser type
• Email (in hashed form)

Mediavine Partners (companies listed below with whom Mediavine shares data) may also use this data to link to other end user information the partner has independently collected to deliver targeted advertisements. Mediavine Partners may also separately collect data about end users from other sources, such as advertising IDs or pixels, and link that data to data collected from Mediavine publishers in order to provide interest-based advertising across your online experience, including devices, browsers and apps. This data includes usage data, cookie information, device information, information about interactions between users and advertisements and websites, geolocation data, traffic data, and information about a visitor’s referral source to a particular website. Mediavine Partners may also create unique IDs to create audience segments, which are used to provide targeted advertising.

If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices to opt-in or opt-out of this data collection, please visit National Advertising Initiative opt out page. You may also visit Digital Advertising Alliance website and Network Advertising Initiative website to learn more information about interest-based advertising. You may download the AppChoices app at Digital Advertising Alliance’s AppChoices app to opt out in connection with mobile apps, or use the platform controls on your mobile device to opt out.
