Privacy Policy

At Ebookaplace.com, we are committed to protecting the privacy and security of any personally identifiable information ("PII") you provide us. PII includes information that can be linked to a specific individual, such as name, address, phone number, or email address.

This privacy policy explains how we handle and protect your PII in accordance with commonly accepted privacy principles.

What information we collect

In an effort to keep our service as simple and easy as possible, we do not create, use or store profiles of our customers. We only record PII and other information that we reasonably require to do business with you. On all Ebookaplace.com pages that collect PII, we specifically describe what information is required in order to provide you with the service you request.

We collect PII when you:

  • Make a booking – We collect your full name, email address and phone number each time you make a booking with Ebookaplace.com. This information may be used for purposes relating to the functionality of the website, such as customer and third party business ratings, and for purposes internal to Ebookaplace.
  • Establish a user account – We retain your full name, email address and phone number whenever you establish a user account. Establishing a user account is necessary to be able to place a booking with a third party business.
  • Subscribe to our newsletter – Ebookaplace collects email addresses from people who subscribe to the Ebookaplace newsletter by either entering their email address in the "Newsletter" section of the site or by opting to be sent the newsletter at the time of making a booking.
  • Surveys, promotions and competition information - Occasionally, We may offer site visitors or newsletter recipients an opportunity to participate in a survey, promotion or competition.

Cookies can make the web more useful by storing information about your preferences on a particular site. The use of cookies is an industry standard and many websites use them to provide useful features for you. Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify you, only your computer. You can delete cookies from your computer at any time (see your internet browser's help menu for more information); however, this will remove all cookies and not just those associated with the Ebookaplace.com site.

How We Use Your Information

  • Book third party business services - Information collected when you book with us is used to establish the booking with the third party business and deliver your booking confirmation electronically. We may also contact your booking for customer service purposes or to make any changes or cancellations to your booking.

Therefore, we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third party businesses whose products or services you book through our website.
