    Links to Third Party Websites

    The Website may contain links to other third-party websites with confidentiality policies that are different from this Privacy Policy. Consequently, Big Bad Wolf Companies shall not be liable for the content or practices of the linked websites. We advise you to check the confidentiality policy of any website you access via the Website. The Personal Data you choose to give to unrelated third parties is covered by their privacy policies, not this Privacy Policy.

     

    If you use the chat rooms on the Website, you should be aware that any Personal Data you submit there can be read, collected, and used by other users of these forums and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We shall not be responsible for the Personal Data that you choose to submit therein.

    To enable you to take advantage of related opportunities on the Website, we would be sending you email that contain information about your book-related interests. For example, if you have completed a search for a book on home designs on the Website and have saved your cart or otherwise not yet purchased your book, we may send you an email message reminding you about your saved item or about a home design. Similarly, if you receive an email from us about home design and demonstrate an interest in architecture by affirmatively clicking on a link about architecture in the email, you may receive an email about architectural books on offers or other information. We believe these email messages will provide you with useful information about book-related special offers available through the Website. Please note that you will have the opportunity to choose not to receive these email messages in any such email we send.
