Contact Information
If you like what you see here, why not say ‘hi’ on Twitter, Google+, Goodreads or Facebook as well? I always follow back.
I sent my first email from my cave, just before my dad took me for my first Stegosaurus hunt. Since then, I’ve been obsessive about checking my email. Contact me through the contact form. From there you can also subscribe to my ARC list or read my guidelines for submitting a guest post.
If you see an image or other information here that belongs to you and you do not wish for it to be used or wish to have it correctly credited, please contact me so that I can make any changes right away.
GDPR Compliance
Any cookies on my website are used to ensure normal website functions (for instance, Youtube videos won’t work without their own identifiers). These cookies cannot be switched off because the website wouldn’t work properly anymore. However, these identifiers do not store any personal data.
When you leave a comment, WordPress stores your gravatar name, IP Address, comment, and email address. Therefore, leaving a comment is considered a clear affirmative, specific, and unambiguous action as defined by the GDPR giving me consent to store this information, and permission to contact you in the future by email.
Your personal information will not be sold or shared with any third parties under any circumstances. Your information shall be retained until you unsubscribe or ask me to remove your data. If you feel your data has been misused, you have a right to complain to the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA). If you do not consent to the above, please don’t leave a comment.
For further information on how WordPress stores and uses your data, please read this post.
Children’s Privacy
As a children’s author, some of my books and some pages on this website are meant for readers who are minors. However, it is not my intention to collect data from people who are underage. If, unbeknownst to me, I have collected the data of a minor, and you, being their parent or guardian, feel concerned, please contact me immediately so I can delete their private information.
Guest Posts
Please keep in mind that you hold sole responsibility for the post’s entire content. If you send me a photo to be published, you are solely responsible in case of copyright infringement. The same goes if your post turns out to be plagiarized. I share your guest post in good faith, but hold no responsibility for its content.
Affiliate Links
Please note that some posts include affiliate links. Read below to understand what this means:
What is affiliate marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a marketing arrangement, between a business and an individual(s), by which the business pays a commission to the owner of an external website for traffic or sales generated from their referrals, which include affiliate links. Affiliate refers to a person participating in this form of marketing, who share such links.
What is an affiliate link?
An affiliate link is a custom URL that contains the affiliate’s ID or username. In affiliate programs, advertisers use affiliate links to record the traffic that is sent to the advertiser’s website. This action is all part of an affiliate program. If a purchase has been made through the affiliate link, then the affiliate stands to earn a commission for it.
This comes at no additional cost to you. In some cases, it may even earn you a discount.
Notice of affiliate participation
This blog is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
Furthermore, some of the links within my posts are affiliate links.
Please understand that I have personally tried out all products and services recommended in this blog, unless otherwise stated. I recommend them because they are helpful, fun, or useful; not because of the small commissions I make if you decide to buy something through my links. Please do not spend any money on any service or product seen here unless you feel you need them or that they will help you achieve your goals.
My blog is not an affiliate farm, so if you’re a company who needs a product or service reviewed, please understand that I only accept a handful of the requests I receive each day. If I have a negative experience using your product or service, I reserve the right to say so on my blog after contacting you and giving you a chance to fix any problems.
Changes to this Policy
I may amend this policy in future without necessarily notifying my subscribers. If you are concerned about any future changes, please check this page from time to time.
