Privacy Policy

1. Who we are and what this covers

This website is published by Doxprint LLC, [STATE OF ORGANIZATION], the publisher of Sartre's Conception of Freedom by Sharam Kohan. Doxprint LLC is the business responsible for the personal information described here.

This policy applies to this website only. It does not apply to a bookseller you reach by following a link from here, nor to any other site, service, or organization.

In this policy, "personal information" means information that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be linked with you or your household.

2. What we collect, and where it comes from

Information you give us

The contact form collects your name, email address, an optional subject line, and your message.

The lecture and seminar inquiry form collects your name, email address, and institution or organization, and optionally a proposed date, a format, an audience size, and a description of the topic.

The course adoption form collects your name, institutional email address, institution, and course title and number, and optionally the term, the expected enrollment, the request type, and any notes you add.

Each form also records that you ticked its consent box, together with the date and time. If you write to the address published on the contact page, the message and whatever it contains is collected by the receiving mailbox in the ordinary way.

You choose what to put in a message. Please do not include information you would not want us to hold.

Information collected automatically

Our hosting provider maintains server logs that ordinarily record the internet protocol address of a request, the date and time, the page requested, the referring page, and the browser user agent. These logs are generated by the hosting infrastructure rather than by this site, and are used for security, abuse prevention, and diagnosing faults.

When a form is submitted, the site stores a one-way irreversible fingerprint of the submitting address for a limited period, solely to enforce a limit of five submissions per hour against automated abuse. The fingerprint cannot be reversed to recover the address, and it expires automatically.

What we do not collect

We do not collect payment card details, financial account numbers, government identifiers, precise geolocation, biometric data, health information, racial or ethnic origin, religious belief, sexual orientation, union membership, or the contents of your communications with anyone other than us. We do not buy personal information from data brokers, and we do not enrich or append to what you give us from outside sources.

3. Cookies and tracking

This site sets no advertising cookies, no analytics cookies, no personalization cookies, and no remarketing cookies. It runs no tracking pixels, no session recording, and no fingerprinting.

The underlying WordPress software may set strictly necessary cookies for a person who signs in to administer the site. Ordinary visitors are not asked to sign in and are not given such cookies. Because no non-essential technology is deployed, no consent banner is shown; there is nothing for it to ask you about.

If analytics or any other non-essential technology is introduced in future, this section will be rewritten and an appropriate consent mechanism will be in place before that technology is activated, not after.

Typefaces

The site loads its typefaces from Google Fonts. Requesting a font file discloses your internet protocol address and basic browser information to that service, under its own terms, in order to deliver the file. No cookie is set by that request and no identifier is stored by us. If this matters to you or to your institution, write to us and the fonts can be served from our own server instead.

4. Why we use it

We use the information from the forms to read and answer your message; to evaluate a request for an examination or desk copy; to respond to a speaking inquiry; to keep a record of permissions granted or refused, and of the terms on which they were granted; to detect, investigate, and prevent abuse of the forms; and to comply with law.

We do not use it to build a profile of you. We do not use it for advertising. We do not use it for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. We do not use it to train machine learning models.

Where a legal basis is required, ours is your consent for form submissions and our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functioning website for server logs and abuse prevention.

5. We do not sell or share your information

We do not sell personal information, and we have not sold personal information in the preceding twelve months. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we have not done so in the preceding twelve months. We do not disclose personal information about anyone we know to be under sixteen for any such purpose.

Because there is no selling and no sharing, there is nothing to opt out of. A "do not sell or share" link would be a decorative control over a practice that does not exist, and we prefer to say so plainly. Where your browser sends a universal opt-out signal such as Global Privacy Control, we honour it to the extent it applies.

6. Who else sees it

Personal information is disclosed only to the service providers that make the site and our correspondence work. At present these are the web host, the outgoing mail provider, and the mailbox provider. Each acts on our instructions, each is permitted to use the information only to supply its service to us, and none is permitted to use it for its own purposes.

We may also disclose information where disclosure is required by law or compelled by valid legal process; where it is reasonably necessary to investigate a suspected violation of our terms, to protect the rights, property, or safety of the Publisher, the author, or others, or to prevent fraud or abuse; or in connection with a merger, an acquisition, or a transfer of the publication, in which case we will require the recipient to honour this policy or give you notice and a choice.

Where we are legally permitted to do so, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you before disclosing your information in response to legal process.

7. How long we keep it

Form submissions are delivered as email and retained in the receiving mailbox for as long as the correspondence remains useful, and are then deleted in the ordinary course. Our working intention is to delete general contact correspondence within twenty-four months of the exchange closing, unless it is the subject of an ongoing matter.

Records of permissions granted or refused are kept for as long as the permission may be relied upon, and for a reasonable period thereafter, because a record of what was permitted protects both parties. Rate-limit fingerprints expire automatically within one hour. Server logs are retained on the hosting provider's own schedule, which is typically short.

We keep information longer only where a law, a regulation, or a live legal claim requires it.

8. Security

The site is served exclusively over an encrypted connection. Form submissions are validated and sanitized on the server, are protected against cross-site request forgery, are checked against a hidden field that automated systems fill in and people do not, and are rate limited. Administrative access is restricted to a small number of accounts protected by strong credentials, and outgoing mail is authenticated against our domain.

No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, and no honest operator can guarantee absolute security. If a breach affecting your personal information occurs, we will notify you and any regulator as required by applicable law, without unreasonable delay.

9. Children

The site is intended for a general and academic readership and is not directed to children under thirteen. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under thirteen. If you believe a child has provided such information, write to us and we will delete it promptly and confirm that we have done so.

10. Your rights

Whoever and wherever you are, you may ask us: what personal information about you we hold; for a copy of it, in a portable form where that is practicable; to correct anything inaccurate; to delete it; and to limit what we do with it. You may also withdraw a consent you have given, which does not affect anything done before you withdrew it.

We extend these rights to every visitor, not only to those whose local law requires it. Because the site holds very little, most requests can be answered quickly.

Residents of United States states with comprehensive privacy laws

Depending on where you live, you may have specific rights to know, access, correct, delete, and port your personal information, to obtain a list of the categories collected and disclosed, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, of targeted advertising, and of certain profiling. As stated in section 5, we do none of those three things, so there is nothing to opt out of. The remaining rights may be exercised as described below.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising a right. We will not deny you access to the site, charge you a different price, or provide a different level of service because you asked.

How to make a request, and what happens next

Write to the address at the end of this policy and say what you want. We will acknowledge your request promptly and answer it within forty-five days, or tell you why we need longer, in which case we will take no more than the additional period the applicable law allows.

To protect you, we may need to verify that the request is yours, usually by corresponding with the email address in the records concerned. We will ask for the minimum necessary and will not use what you give us for verification for any other purpose. An authorized agent acting for you may be asked for proof of authority.

We may decline a request where the law permits, for example where we cannot verify identity, where the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, or where complying would infringe another person's rights. If we decline, we will tell you why.

Appeals. If we refuse a request, you may appeal by replying to our decision and asking for it to be reviewed. We will review it and respond in writing within forty-five days, explaining the outcome and the reasons. If the appeal is denied, you may contact the attorney general or supervisory authority for your jurisdiction, and we will tell you how.

11. If you are outside the United States

The site is operated from the United States, and information submitted through it is processed and stored there. If you write to us from another country, your information will be transferred to the United States, whose data protection law may differ from your own and may not provide equivalent protection. By using the forms, you understand that this transfer takes place. We apply this policy to your information wherever it is held.

12. Changes to this policy

We may revise this policy. The effective date and the last updated date at the head of the page record when. Where a revision materially changes how we collect or use personal information, we will describe the change on this page before it takes effect, and we will not apply a materially different use to information already collected without an appropriate basis for doing so.

13. How to reach us

Doxprint LLC, [MAILING ADDRESS].
contact@sartresconceptionoffreedom.com

Please put "Privacy request" in the subject line so that it reaches the right place quickly.

The Terms of Use govern use of the site itself and are a separate document. General correspondence, including requests from institutions, goes through the contact page.

This policy is written to be accurate about a site that collects very little, rather than expansive about practices it does not have. Every factual claim in it, above all the statements that there is no advertising, no analytics, no tracking, and no selling or sharing, is a claim about how the site is actually operated; if any of them ceases to be true, this page must be revised before the change goes live. It is not legal advice, and its adequacy under any particular law depends on the facts. Review by a licensed attorney is advisable before launch, and again whenever the site begins to collect something new.
