LINKS AND THIRD PARTIES
Charlotte Brothers Author uses social follow and share buttons and links, and sometime re-posts content made by others in an acceptable manner, giving proper attribution/ authorship. I are not responsible for the adherence to privacy policies that third parties, such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and others not limited to those mentioned here may have. You are free to visit each connected site or platform's privacy policy if you are concerned or curious.
MY OFFLINE STORAGE
When a project with a client is initiated, I, Charlotte acting agent of CharlotteBrothersAuthor.com, will collect, with written consent, only the necessary information needed to conduct business. I will store receipts with your address, phone number, name, and email address, and artwork information indefinitely unless requested not to. Transactions conducted online are processed securely through Squarespace (our site host), and either PayPal or Stripe and your credit card company or bank or credit union. If a sale is made in person, I will shred or burn (such violence!) any written credit card information as soon as the sale goes through. The only time CharlotteBrothersAuthor.com would share information would be in the case of discovering criminal activity of the part of a client or account, and authorities would be notified.
AFFILIATE MARKETING
At some point in the future, this site may display affiliate links as deemed helpful and appropriate. Currently we do not.
If you have any further questions about how your information is held or used, please feel free to contact me. Thank you!
