Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 16, 2025

Rambler Books respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

Information We Collect

• Account details: such as name, email address, and login credentials when you create an account or subscribe to our newsletter.
• Purchase information: billing details and order history when you buy books through our store.
• Usage data: anonymized analytics about how you use our websites and services.
• Communications: any information you choose to share when you contact us.

How We Use Information

We use your information to:

• Provide and improve our services and publications;
• Process payments and fulfill orders;
• Send newsletters, updates, and marketing (only with your consent);
• Maintain security and prevent fraud.

Sharing Information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate our services, always under strict confidentiality obligations. These include:

• Amazon Web Services (AWS) — provides hosting and storage infrastructure.
• Cloudflare — provides global content delivery, DNS, and security services.
• Other vendors as needed, such as payment processors or email providers.

All such providers are contractually bound to protect your data and, where applicable, we rely on safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions to ensure lawful international transfers.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal data, as well as to restrict or object to certain processing activities. You can exercise these rights by contacting us at privacy@ramblerbooks.com.

Cookies

We do not use cookies for tracking, analytics, or marketing, and therefore no cookie banner is required. The only cookie in use is a session cookie at login.rambler.com, which is strictly necessary for authentication. This cookie carries no personally identifiable information—it only contains a randomly generated number used to maintain your secure session. It is essential for logging in and cannot be disabled, but it is not used for profiling or tracking.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Location & International Transfers

Our systems are distributed. Different components and backups may be hosted in data centers located in multiple countries worldwide. We do not segregate storage by geography; data may be replicated or routed across regions to provide reliability, performance, and security.

By using our websites and services, you acknowledge and consent to this global processing and storage. Where applicable law grants you statutory rights (for example, rights of access, deletion/erasure, correction, portability, or to object/restrict processing), those rights continue to apply regardless of where data is stored or processed. You can exercise these rights by contacting us at privacy@ramblerbooks.com.

If your region’s laws restrict cross‑border data transfers (for example, the EU/UK under GDPR), we take steps to ensure compliance. This includes using mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy decisions, or equivalent safeguards required by law. These safeguards are in place to make sure your rights are protected no matter where your data is processed.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
