LGBT Romance Deals

LGBT Romance Deals (“Company”, “we”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy policy describes our practices about the personal information we collect from users of our website, http:// www.lgbtromance.wordpress.com (the “Site”) and online services (“Services”).

Subscription and Spam

LGBT Romance Deals is very serious about maintaining your privacy. We hate spam and believe that you don’t want to get any either. But we do collect your email address if you sign up for our newsletter (kind of why we have it).

If you would rather not receive any further emails, you may unsubscribe at any time (but you’d be missing lots of hot deals!).

What Information is Collected?

When you visit LGBT Romance Deals the webserver automatically logs the following information, which can be very insightful. This is completely standard. Pretty much every single website on the entire Internet stores traffic logs exactly like this. We don’t do anything with the data, though. What does the provider (wordpress.com) collect?

* Your IP address
* What pages were visited, and when
* What site you were on before you came to LGBT Romance Deals
* Your web browser software manufacturer and version
* Your operating software manufacturer and version

This may include your IP address, which may be stored in the WordPress servers. We won’t ever do anything with this info, but please be aware it might be there.

If you enter a giveaway, Rafflecopter will collect your data, too. If you’d like to know what they’re collecting, here is the link to their privacy policy: Rafflecoper
