Privacy Policy
Introduction
Hello, I’m Kit Daven. I am a sole proprietor operating as Eager Eye Publisher. I am simply a writer, and Eager Eye Publishing is my author press. If there was another way for readers to be informed of my updates without giving me their names and emails addresses, I’d be first in line to implement that kind of set up. I truly have no interest in your personal data except for the purpose of keeping an email list of “true fans”.
Most buy links are redirected to external merchant sites (e.g. Kobo, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc), where your personal data is subject to their privacy policies. Otherwise, payments sold directly to you, payments will be handled securely by a payment processor (e.g. PayHip, PayPal), with the exception of payments by eTransfer, which will require me to acquire your shipping details, which I will enter into Canada Post or Payhip, where the information will fall under their privacy policies.
I am an Affiliate of Amazon, so most links to products on my website are affiliate links.
My mailing list uses MailerLite as its platform; they’re opt-in and you can unsubscribe at any time. My newsletter is usually sent out once a month, sometimes irregularly, resulting in about 8-12 newsletters per year. Anyone who signs up then reports me as spam will be removed from my email list without warning.
Below are more in-depth explanations regarding my online information practices. Your data protection and privacy are important to me, so please read on.

I will never use this data for marketing or promotion purposes without getting your permission in writing first (for example, to publish your testimonial for me on my website).

Absolutely no one. I will never lease, distribute or sell your information to third parties unless I am required to do so by law.
How long do I keep your personal data?
You can unsubscribe at any time through MailerLite, or contact me directly at words@kitdaven.com and I will do it for you. Information gathered to ship products bought directly from me, will fall under the Privacy Policy conditions of Paypal, Payhip, Canada Post and ChitChats. Information provided to external marketplaces will fall under their privacy policies.

I do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy policies. When you leave my website, I encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.
Affiliate Links
I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means to earn fees to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. This website contains Amazon affiliate links.
