Privacy Policy

Information we collect

We collect only what you type into our forms and a small amount of technical information your browser sends automatically.

If you want to sell or give away items

• Your email address
• Your phone number, if you choose to give one
• Your ZIP code
• Whether you want to sell or give away, the types of items you have, and roughly how many
• For textbooks, your name and the ISBNs of the books you want to sell

If you apply as a reseller

• Your name and business name
• Your email address and phone number
• The city and state where you are based
• Your website or store link, if you give one
• The ZIP codes you want to claim

Technical information

Like most websites, our site and its hosting and security services may record your IP address, browser type and the pages you visit. Our forms use Google reCAPTCHA to block spam, and reCAPTCHA collects some browser and device information as it does so, under Google's Privacy Policy.

How we use your information

• To respond to your request to sell or give away items
• To send your request to a local reseller, usually the one for your ZIP code
• To review reseller applications and activate ZIP code territories
• To keep the site secure and prevent spam and abuse

We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not sell it.

Who we share it with

Local resellers. If you ask to sell or give away items, we send your request to the reseller for your ZIP code. If no reseller covers your ZIP code yet, we may send it to another reseller in the Las Vegas valley. The reseller receives the details you gave us, including your email address and phone number, so they can contact you. If we cannot find a reseller for your request, it may stay with us until one joins, or we may contact you directly.

Service providers. We use services that help us run the site, such as web hosting, email delivery, spam protection and security tools. They handle your information only to provide those services.

Legal reasons. We may disclose information if the law requires it or to protect our rights, our users or the public.

We do not otherwise share your information with third parties.

How long we keep it

We keep form submissions for as long as we need them to handle your request and to keep records of our reseller network. You can ask us to delete your information at any time (see "Your choices" below).

Your choices

You can ask us to show you the information we hold about you, correct it, or delete it. You can also ask us to stop contacting you. Email us at the address below and we will respond as soon as we reasonably can. Resellers who received your request are separate businesses, so you may also need to ask them directly to delete what they hold.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, including secure connections and security monitoring on our site. No website or email can be guaranteed completely secure.

Children

BookSourcer is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our service grows. The effective date at the top shows when it last changed.
