Round Table Reads (the “Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through this policy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit roundtablereads.com, how we use it, and the choices you have.
By using this Site, you agree to the terms described below.
Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways.
Information you provide directly. When you take our personality quiz, subscribe to our email list, or contact us through a form on the Site, we collect the information you submit, which may include your name and email address.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect certain information automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit.
Information from third-party services. Our Site is built on WordPress and may use plugins or hosted services, such as our quiz tool and email service provider, that collect information on our behalf. These providers are listed under Third-Party Services below.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Deliver quiz results and any related content you request
- Send newsletters, updates, and marketing emails to subscribers who opt in
- Respond to inquiries sent through the Site
- Understand how visitors use the Site, so we can improve it
- Maintain the security and proper functioning of the Site
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our Site uses cookies, which are small text files stored on your device, to remember your preferences and understand how you interact with the Site. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, though some parts of the Site may not function properly if you do.
We may also use analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, to understand visitor traffic and behavior in aggregate. These tools may place their own cookies and collect data according to their own privacy policies.
Third-Party Services
We rely on the following categories of third-party services to operate the Site:
- Hosting provider: Bluehost.com
- Email service provider: Bluehost.com managing our mailing list and sending newsletters
- Book retailers: links to Amazon and other retailers where our books can be purchased. Once you leave our Site through one of these links, that retailer’s own privacy policy applies
Each of these providers processes data under its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to review them.
Email Communications
If you sign up for our email list, we will use your email address to send you newsletters, book updates, and related content. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you may opt out at any time. We will retain your email address for as long as you remain subscribed, and we will delete it upon request or unsubscription, except where retention is required for recordkeeping.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not share your personal information with third parties except in the following circumstances:
- With service providers who help us operate the Site (hosting, email delivery, quiz functionality), and only to the extent needed to perform those services
- If required by law, subpoena, or other legal process
- To protect the rights, property, or safety of Round Table Reads, our visitors, or others

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
- Request access to the personal information we hold about you
- Request correction or deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of marketing emails at any time
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information below. Residents of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and certain U.S. states, such as California, may have additional rights under applicable law, including the GDPR and the CCPA.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we collect, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of any information you provide.
Children’s Privacy
This Site is not directed to children under thirteen, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under thirteen. If we learn that we have collected information from a child under thirteen, we will delete it promptly.
