​1. Scope

This policy applies to johnkingbooksdetroit.com and its subdomains, including the subject directory at directory.johnkingbooksdetroit.com. ​​

2. Information Provided Directly by You

When you use the Contact Us section of our websites, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name and email address. 

• Purpose: We use this information strictly to respond to your specific questions or book inquiries.

• Storage: This data is stored through our website host, Wix, and is not shared with any third parties outside of our essential service providers. ​

3. Automated Data Collection & Analytics

To help us understand how our visitors use our site and to improve our digital tools, we use Google Analytics.

• What is Collected: Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard log information and visitor behavior, such as which pages you visit, or how long you stay, and your general location.

• Google Advertising Feature: We have enabled Google Signals, a Google Analytics Advertising Feature that provides demographic, interest, and cross-device reporting. When active, first-party cookies set by Google Analytics may be used together with Google's own advertising cookies and identifiers, allowing Google to associate the activity measured on our site with signed-in Google account holders who have turned on Ads Personalization. We do not receive the identity of any individual visitor.

• How to Opt-Out: To turn off advertising and personalization features, visit your Google Ads Settings or the NAI consumer opt-out. To review or delete activity Google has associated with your account, visit My Activity. To block Google Analytics entirely, install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.

• Search Directory: To improve our search results and identify gaps in our catalog, we log the search queries entered on our subject directory. These logs record the search terms themselves, not who entered them, and are not linked to your name, email, or any account. They are used internally only and are not shared or sold. ​

4. Third-Party Service Providers

We use the following services to maintain our digital presence:

• Wix: Hosts our main site and manages our contact form data. 

• Firebase (Google Cloud): Hosts our subject directory.

• Google Analytics: Provides insights into site traffic and performance. 

• Rare Book Sales: For online purchases of rare items, you are redirected to rarebooklink.com. That site maintains its own separate privacy policy regarding transactions and customer data. ​

5. Your Rights

You have the right to ask us what information we have about you or to request that we delete your contact history. If you have questions about your data, please contact us by email, at jkking.helpdesk@gmail.com.
