PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: May 16, 2026

​

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how Natchez Press LLC (“Natchez Press,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Tennessee limited liability company, collects, uses, and shares information about you when you visit brockalston.com (the “Site”), subscribe to our mailing list, download free reader content, or otherwise interact with us online.

By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

 

2. Who We Are

brockalston.com is the official author website of Brock Alston, operated by Natchez Press LLC. Natchez Press LLC is the data controller responsible for personal information collected through the Site. For privacy‑related questions or requests, contact us at admin@brockalston.com.

 

3. Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

Information you provide directly. When you subscribe to our mailing list, request a free book or reader magnet, submit a contact form, or otherwise communicate with us, we may collect your name, email address, and any other information you choose to share.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, certain information is collected automatically by our hosting platform and analytics tools, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring website, pages viewed, and the dates and times of your visits. This is collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 7).

Information from third‑party services. When you download a free book through our reader magnet partner (BookFunnel), or sign up through our email service provider, those services collect and share your email address and basic delivery information with us so we can fulfill your request.

 

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Deliver requested content, including free books, reader magnets, and newsletters

  • Send updates about new releases, events, and other author news (with your consent)

  • Respond to inquiries submitted through our contact form

  • Improve the Site’s content, design, and user experience

  • Detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, abuse, or security incidents

  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your information for automated decision‑making or profiling.

 

5. How We Share Your Information

We share information only as necessary to operate the Site and fulfill your requests. Specifically:

Service providers. We use third‑party services to host the Site, deliver email, distribute free books, and analyze traffic. These include:

  • Wix.com Ltd.—website hosting, contact form processing, and built‑in analytics

  • MailerLite—email marketing and list management

  • BookFunnel—reader magnet delivery

Each of these providers has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data.

Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required to do so by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.

Business transfers. If the Site or its operations are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will provide notice before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

We do not share your information with advertisers, data brokers, or other third parties for their marketing purposes.

 

6. External Links and Affiliate Disclosure

The Site contains links to third‑party retailers and partners, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, and Bookshop.org. When you click these links, you leave our Site and any information you provide is governed by that third party’s privacy policy. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of external sites.

Affiliate disclosure. Some of the outbound links on this Site may be affiliate links, meaning we may earn a small commission if you make a purchase through them, at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships may include programs such as Amazon Associates and Bookshop.org. Affiliate links do not influence which books, retailers, or partners we recommend. We only link to products and services we believe will be of interest to our readers.

 

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember your preferences, and analyze traffic. Cookies are small data files stored on your device.

Essential cookies (Wix). Our hosting platform, Wix, sets cookies that are required for the Site to function—for example, to maintain your session, remember dismissed notifications, and provide security against fraud.

Analytics cookies (Wix Analytics). We use Wix’s built‑in analytics to understand how visitors find and use the Site, which pages are most popular, and where improvements can be made. This data is aggregated and used to improve the Site’s content and performance.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect Site functionality.

 

8. Social Media

We maintain social media accounts on Facebook and Instagram. When you follow, like, comment on, or otherwise interact with these accounts, your interactions are governed by the privacy policies of those platforms (Meta Platforms, Inc.), not by this Privacy Policy. We do not currently embed social media tracking pixels or plugins on the Site itself. If this changes in the future, we will update this Policy.

 

9. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information:

Email subscribers. You can unsubscribe from our mailing list at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by emailing admin@brockalston.com.

California residents (CCPA/CPRA). You have the right to know what personal information we collect, request deletion of your information, correct inaccurate information, and opt out of any “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law).

EU/UK residents (GDPR/UK GDPR). You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal information, and the right to data portability. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at admin@brockalston.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

 

10. Data Retention

We retain your information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. If you unsubscribe from our mailing list, we retain a record of your unsubscribe to ensure we honor your preference.

 

11. Data Security

We use commercially reasonable safeguards to protect the information we collect. Our service providers (Wix, MailerLite, BookFunnel) maintain industry‑standard security practices. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

 

12. Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us at admin@brockalston.com and we will promptly delete it.

 

13. International Visitors

The Site is operated from the United States. If you access the Site from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. By using the Site, you consent to this transfer.

 

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify subscribers by email.
