Information We Collect

The Notebook collects personal information only when you provide it voluntarily. This occurs in the following circumstances:

  • Contact form submissions: When you submit the contact form on contact.php, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message. This information is used solely to respond to your correspondence.

  • Automatically collected data: Standard server logs may record your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and pages visited. This data is used for basic site functioning and security purposes only.

How We Use Your Information

Personal information collected by the Notebook is used only for the following purposes:

  • Responding to correspondence sent through the contact form or by email.
  • Processing contribution enquiries from prospective writers.
  • Maintaining the security and basic functioning of the website.

We do not use personal information for marketing purposes. We do not add contact form submissions to any mailing list. We do not share, sell, or transfer personal information to third parties for commercial purposes.
