Galactic Publishers Limited Privacy Policy.
Galactic Publishers Limited, are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected.
This policy explains how we use the information we collect about you and the procedures that we have in place to safeguard your privacy whilst you use the website.
We will only use the information that we collect about you lawfully (in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998).
The information we collect and how we use it
When you place an order, we need to know your name, delivery address, credit or debit card number and expiry date, email address and telephone number.
This information allows us to fulfil your order and notify you of the status of your order.
All orders are fulfilled using a third party service provider and we will therefore pass on your details to that service provider so that they can deliver your goods to you.
That third party service provider has undertaken to us that they will protect that information, will not pass it on, not use it for any other purpose than to deliver your ordered goods to you.
We may also ask you to give us optional contact information, for example a contact telephone number.
If you subscribe to any of our mailing lists for pre-orders and other information, you maybe asked to specify the areas in which you are interested so that we can tailor the information which we send to you to cover the topics and books which we believe you might be interested in.
We may, from time to time, send with your ordered products, inserts advertising the goods or services of unrelated third party companies. We do not pass on your personal data to these third party companies.
We may also use your information for the purpose of providing you with information about any special offers, author signings and other events or features of our website which we think may be of interest to you and for related marketing purposes.
We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website. Your IP address may also be used to help identify you and your details on our database.
In order to enhance your use of the website you will be given a session ID which will only last for the duration of that visit to the site. Each time you visit the site you will have a different session ID.
By submitting your information you consent to the use of that information as set out in this Policy.
If we change our Privacy Policy we will post the changes on this page so that you may be aware of them.
We will also email you should we make any changes and give you a chance to ask us not to use your information in that way.
Because the Internet infrastructure is global, and it is not possible to predict the routes that information sent over the Internet may take and the information that you provide may be transferred temporarily via a route which takes it outside the country in which you are placing an order as it passes between you and us. By submitting your information you consent to this transfer.

We follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us.
This is to prevent unauthorised access or unlawful processing of your personal information.
We keep your information confidential and store it on a secure server which is password protected and hidden behind a firewall from the outside world.
We use secure socket layer software (SSL) to encrypt all of your personal information including your credit card number and your name and address.

The Comodo programme allows you to verify that this website is secure.
Non-disclosure to third parties
Unless we have your express consent, we will only disclose your personal data to third parties if this is required for the purpose of completing your transaction with us.
This is subject to the proviso that we may disclose or transfer your data to a partner company where you have supplied information via a site which is co-branded with that partner company or to members of our own group.
If personally identifying data about you may be shared with a partner company, we will tell you before we collect or transfer the data so that you may opt out of this transfer if you wish.
We use your information only as set out in this Policy and will not sell, rent or pass your information on to others for marketing purposes without your express consent.
We may also release personal information where we believe in good faith that this release is reasonably necessary to comply with the law.
