Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 21, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Bob Burgin (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal data of visitors to bobburgin.org (the “Site”). We are the data controller for the personal data described below. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar data protection laws, this policy is intended to satisfy our obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and comparable laws.

Who to Contact

For any question about this policy or your personal data, contact us at info@bobburgin.org.

What Data We Collect

We collect personal data in the following ways:

Contact form. When you submit the contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message.
Free chapter download. When you request the free chapter, we collect your email address so we can deliver it and follow up about related content.
Cookies and analytics (only with your consent). If you accept cookies via the banner on the Site, we use tools such as Google Analytics and other tools configured through Google Tag Manager to collect usage data — including IP address, device and browser information, pages visited, and referral source. See our Cookie Policy for details on what is set and how to withdraw consent at any time.

Legal Basis and Purpose of Processing

We process contact form and chapter-download data on the basis of your consent and our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries and providing requested content. We process analytics and advertising data only on the basis of your consent, collected through the cookie banner, and only for as long as that consent remains valid.

Third-Party Processors

Where you have consented to analytics or marketing cookies, data may be processed by Google (Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager) and any additional tools we configure through Google Tag Manager. These providers may process data on servers located outside the EEA/UK; where this occurs, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. We will keep this section current as additional tools are added.

Data Retention

Contact form and chapter-download submissions are retained only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry or fulfill the request, unless a longer period is required by law. Cookie consent preferences and analytics data are retained per the periods described in our Cookie Policy.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate data
Request deletion of your data
Restrict or object to certain processing
Request a copy of your data in a portable format
Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal
Lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@bobburgin.org. You can withdraw analytics/marketing consent at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the site footer.

Children’s Privacy

This Site is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated “Last updated” date above.
