What personal data is collected

Contact form

If you elect to contact Anna via the website contact form, you must provide your email address as well as a brief message explaining your reason for contacting Anna. If you choose not to provide this information, you won’t be able to submit the form. Your name is requested but not required. What information you provide in your message is entirely up to you. None of this information is retained by this website after the message is sent. Anything you enter into the form will be used only by Anna Durand to reply to your message; it will not be transferred, sold, or provided to any other party unless required by law. This information is stored in our database on our server indefinitely (or until manually deleted).

Newsletter signup form

The newsletter signup form is managed by MailerLite, a third-party email marketing service. The form asks for your email address, and this information is saved to the secure servers of MailerLite. You will also have the opportunity to select which type of emails you’d like to receive from Anna Durand, (monthly newsletter, promotions/discounts, new releases). The monthly newsletter is sent out once a month, while the other types of emails are sent as needed. Email information collected when you subscribed to Anna Durand’s newsletter will remain on MailerLite’s server indefinitely, so that your subscription preferences (including date when you subscribed and unsubscribed, etc.) can be recorded. The newsletter subscriber list is never shared with other authors or marketing firms.
