Gareth Stevens Publishing (“Gareth Stevens”) is committed to protecting your privacy online. Our policy explains how we will do this. We will review this policy in the light of comments we receive so please check the latest version. If you have any questions about our privacy policy, please contact us.

By using Gareth Stevens Report Builder, you are accepting the practices described in this statement.

Collection and Use of Information

When you register for a free trial, ask for further information about Gareth Stevens Report Builder, or subscribe to the online databases, we ask for your name, email address, postal address, and other relevant personal information. Personal information submitted in this way is added to our access control database, hosted by a third party hosting company, and to our customer databases at Gareth Stevens premises. Such disclosure is strictly voluntary. In order to contact us by email, however, you must provide an email address. This information will be updated if you inform us of any changes.

We may use information in our customer databases to send you information about us and our products which we think may be of interest to you, both electronically or otherwise. In the case of subscriptions and free trials, your personal information will also be used to enable us to verify you are a subscriber and to deliver Gareth Stevens Report Builder to you.

We request personal information (such as your name, email address, and other contact details) from you when you contact us with subscription management queries, technical problems, to comment on Gareth Stevens Report Builder, or when you ask for information about how to use the online database. Personal information submitted by you via a “contact us” or feedback form will not be added to our customer database and we request it simply so that we can respond to you about your query. Statistics regarding the types of queries submitted to us via a “contact us” or feedback form may be collated by us in aggregate form so that we can effectively monitor the site and improve levels of service. If you have registered for a free trial, asked for information, or subscribed to Gareth Stevens Report Builder in the past and no longer use the subscription resource and do not wish us to store information about you, please contact us and we will remove your details from our customer database. We need to store information about current subscribers and trial users in order to fulfill our contractual requirements to you and in order to deliver Gareth Stevens Report Builder to you.

Unless you have informed us that you do not wish to receive further information about our products, we may send you direct mail.

You may notify us either in writing, fax, or email that you object to being contacted in a particular stated way. If you use more than one email address to communicate with us, please notify us of each email account you use.

Gareth Stevens requests that students under the age of 13 ask their parents or teachers for approval before sending any personally identifiable information. Users of Gareth Stevens Report Builder may use the online database without providing any personally identifiable information.

Collection of Non-Personal Identifying Information

Gareth Stevens will also collect and use non-personal identifying information, including IP addresses and web server log files to track trends, administer the website, track user movement, and gather demographic information. We use this non-personal identifying information in the aggregate. We do not combine these types of non-personal identifying information with personal identifying information.

We share your information only within Gareth Stevens Publishing.
