At Dionysus Reviews, your privacy matters to us. We know that sharing personal information online requires trust, and we take that responsibility seriously. This policy explains how we handle your information when you visit our book review platform.
What Information We Gather
When you interact with our site, we collect basic information to improve your experience. This includes your email address if you subscribe to our newsletter, your name if you contact us directly, and technical details like your IP address and browser type when you browse our reviews.
We don’t ask for unnecessary personal details. If you’re just reading our book reviews, you can do so without providing any personal information at all.
How We Use Your Information
Your email goes into our newsletter system so we can send you weekly book recommendations and new review alerts. We never spam or flood your inbox with promotional content.
Technical information helps us understand which reviews are most popular and how people navigate our site. This data stays anonymous – we’re not trying to figure out who you are personally.
Cookies and Tracking
Like most websites, we use cookies to remember your preferences and improve site performance. These small files help us load pages faster and remember if you prefer certain book categories.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this might make some site features work less smoothly.
Website Analytics
We track basic visitor statistics to understand our audience better. This includes which book reviews get the most attention, what search terms people use, and how long visitors spend reading our content.
We use this information to decide which genres to focus on and which authors to interview next. All analytics data remains anonymous.
Sharing Your Information
We don’t sell your email address or personal details to anyone. Period.
The only time we might share information is if legally required or if you explicitly ask us to (like forwarding a message to a book author you want to contact).
Our email service provider handles newsletter delivery, but they’re bound by strict privacy agreements and can’t use your information for their own purposes.
Keeping Your Data Safe
We use standard security measures including encrypted connections and secure servers. Your personal information stays protected from unauthorized access.
However, no internet system is completely bulletproof. While we do our best to protect your data, we can’t guarantee absolute security.
External Links
Our reviews sometimes link to bookstores, publisher websites, or author pages. Once you click those links, you’re on their sites with their privacy policies. We can’t control how they handle your information.
Policy Updates
If we change this privacy policy, we’ll post the updated version here and send a notice to newsletter subscribers if the changes are significant.
Your Rights
You can unsubscribe from our newsletter anytime using the link in any email we send. If you want us to delete your contact information entirely, just send us a message.
