Welcome and thank   you for your interest in HB Publications, LLC (the “Company”) and our website   at www.hughtaylorsite.com (the   “Website”), on which a link to this Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) is   displayed.

This Policy   describes how the Company may collect, use, process, disclose, and safeguard   information we obtain through the Website. It also tells you about your   rights and choices with respect to your information, and how you can contact   us if you have any questions or concerns.

This Policy is   incorporated into and is subject to the HB Publications, LLC Terms of Use.   Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Policy have the meaning given   to them in the HB Publications, LLC Terms of Use.


1. Personal Information We Collect

For the purpose of this Policy, “Personal   Information” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable   individual. We obtain Personal Information relating to you from various   sources described below.

Where applicable, we indicate whether and why   you must provide us with your Personal Information, as well as the   consequences of failing to do so. If you do not provide Personal Information   when requested, you may not be able to benefit from all of the features of   our Website if that information is necessary to provide you with full access   to the Website features or if we are legally required to collect it.

a.  Personal   Information Provided by You 

  • Account   Registration. If you register to use the Website, then you must provide us   with your name, email address, and a password in order to create an account   and user profile. Some types of user registrations also require a physical   address or location. You may also   optionally add other information, such as photos of yourself.
  • Making Payments. When you make   payments for the purchase of any of our Products or Services, you may need to   provide Personal Information to our third-party service providers, such as   your credit card number and billing address.
  • User Content. We will collect   any information you upload or post to the Website.
  • Communications. We will collect   any information which you provide to us through your communications, such as   when you communicate with our support staff. 

b. Personal   Information Collected via Automated Means 

In addition to information that you provide   to us, we may collect information about you and your use of the Website via   automated means, such as cookies, web beacons and similar technologies:

  • Cookies and   Similar Technologies. When you use the Website, we may send one or   more cookies – small text files containing a string of alphanumeric   characters – to your device. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies   to automatically collect certain information. A session cookie disappears   after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close   your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the   Website. When you use the Website, we may also automatically collect certain   information from your device by using similar technologies, including “clear   gifs” or “web beacons.” Please review your web browser “Help” file to learn   the proper way to modify your settings with regard to such automated data   collection. Please note that if you delete, or choose not to accept, such   technologies from the Website, you may not be able to utilize the features of   the Website to their fullest potential.
  • The automatically collected information may   include your IP address or other device address or ID, web browser and/or   device type, the web pages or sites that you visit just before or just after   you use the Website, the pages or other content you view or otherwise   interact with on the Website, and the dates and times that you visit, access,   or use the Website. We also may use these technologies to collect information   regarding your interaction with email messages, such as whether you opened,   clicked on, or forwarded a message. This information is gathered from all   users.
  • We use this information to assess how many   users access or use our Website, how they interact with our Website, which   content, products, and features of our Website most interest or are of most   value to our users, what types of offers and incentives our customers and   their end-customers respond to, and how our Website performs from a technical   point of view. 
  • Google Analytics. We utilize   Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and   analyze information about use of the Website and report on activities and   trends. You can learn about Google’s practices by going to: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and opt out of   them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available   at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. 
  • Third Party Web   Beacons and Third Party Buttons. We may also implement third-party content   or advertising on the Website that may use clear gifs or other forms of web   beacons, which allow the third-party content provider to read and write   cookies to your browser in connection with your viewing of the third party   content on the Website. Additionally, we may implement third party buttons   (such as “like” or “share” buttons) that may allow third parties to collect   information about you through such third parties’ browser cookies, even when   you do not interact with the button. Information collected through web   beacons and buttons is collected directly by these third parties, and the   Company does not participate in that data transmission. Information collected   by a third party in this manner is subject to that third party’s own data   collection, use, and disclosure policies.

You may update, correct, or delete your   profile information and preferences at any time by accessing your account   settings page on the Website, or by contacting us at foriwillbewithyou@gmail.com.   Please note that while any changes you make will be reflected in active user   databases instantly or within a reasonable period of time, we may retain all   information you submit for backups, archiving, prevention of fraud and abuse,   analytics, satisfaction of legal obligations, or where we otherwise   reasonably believe that we have a legitimate reason to do so, to the extent   permitted under applicable law.
  • Opt-Out. If you receive   commercial email from us, you may unsubscribe at any time by following the   instructions contained within the email.

We may   allow you to view and modify settings relating to the nature and frequency of   promotional communications that you receive from us in user account   functionality on the Website.

Please be aware that if you opt-out of   receiving commercial emails from us or otherwise modify the nature or   frequency of promotional communications you receive from us, it may take up   to ten business days for us to process your request, and you may receive   promotional communications from us that you have opted-out from during that   period, unless we are required by applicable law to process your request   within a shorter period of time. Additionally, even after you opt-out from   receiving commercial messages from us, if you are a registered user you may   continue to receive administrative messages from us regarding your use of the   Website.

  • Privacy Settings. Although we may allow   you to adjust your privacy settings to limit access to certain Personal   Information, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or   impenetrable. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, we are   not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security   measures on the Website. Additionally, we cannot control the actions of   others with whom you may choose to share your information. Furthermore, even   after information posted on the Website is removed, caching and archiving   services may have saved that information, and others, including third   parties, may have copied or stored the information available on the Website.   To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, we cannot and do not   guarantee that information you post on or transmit to the Website will not be   viewed by unauthorized persons.
  • Do Not Track. Some web browsers   incorporate a “Do Not Track” feature. Because there is not yet an accepted   standard for how to respond to Do Not Track signals, our website does not   currently respond to such signals.
