Protection of AnAuthorsWay.com:

We release account and other personal information when we believe it appropriate to comply with law, to enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements, or to protect the rights, property or safety of AnAuthorsWay.com, our members or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in a way that is contrary to the commitments made in this Privacy Notice.

With your consent: other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.

Whenever we transfer personal information to countries outside of the European Economic Area in the course of sharing information as set out above, we will ensure that the information is transferred in accordance with this Privacy Notice and as permitted by the UK’s Data Protection Act.

Information Security Protection

We protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. SSL is provided and approved by high street banks and used by major websites such as Paypal and Amazon

We maintain physical, procedural and electronic security and safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personally identifiable customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may need to request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.

We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing as per standard banking industry practices.

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