Legal & Privacy

Last updated: October 17, 2026

Information Collected

I receive information you voluntarily provide when you subscribe to a newsletter, submit a contact form, create a site account, or request information about services. This may include your name, email address, account information, and the contents of your message or project inquiry.

This website is hosted by Wix. Wix and its enabled website tools may collect technical and usage information, such as IP address, browser and device information, pages visited, referral sources, and interactions with the website.

Please contact me before sending confidential manuscripts or sensitive personal information through a general contact form.

How Information Is Used

Information is used to:

Respond to questions and service inquiries.
Prepare requested quotes and communicate about potential or agreed projects.
Send newsletters and promotional updates to subscribers.
Manage site accounts and subscriber records.
Understand website use and improve content.
Maintain website security and address misuse.
Meet applicable legal and recordkeeping obligations.

Submitting a contact form or requesting a quote does not, by itself, subscribe you to marketing emails.

Newsletters and Email Tracking

Subscribers may receive book news, writing resources, event announcements, service information, and promotional offers.

You may unsubscribe at any time through the unsubscribe link in a marketing email or by contacting tonyanaglephd@gmail.com.

Wix email tools may record delivery, opens, and link clicks to help evaluate newsletter performance. Email software and privacy settings may affect the accuracy of this information.

Unsubscribing from marketing emails does not prevent necessary communication about an inquiry or an existing service agreement.

Cookies and Website Analytics

This website uses cookies and similar technologies through Wix to support website operation, security, preferences, and analytics.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Where a cookie preference banner is available, you can use it to manage the optional cookie categories displayed there. Restricting cookies may affect certain website features.

Information Sharing and Service Providers

I do not sell or rent your personal information.

Information is processed through Wix and the services needed to host the website, manage forms and subscriber records, deliver emails, and provide requested website features.

Information may also be disclosed when required by law or when reasonably necessary to address fraud, security threats, or legal claims.

Service providers may process or store information outside your state or country. For information about Wix’s practices, visit https://www.wix.com/about/privacy.

Retention and Security

I retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining subscriber preferences, providing agreed services, and meeting applicable recordkeeping requirements.

Reasonable measures are used to protect personal information. No internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your Privacy Choices

You may contact tonyanaglephd@gmail.com to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have provided.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have additional rights concerning your information. Identity verification may be necessary before fulfilling a request, and some records may need to be retained to meet legal or contractual obligations.

Children’s Privacy and Book Audiences

This website includes information about books intended for different age groups. Some titles are intended for adult readers and may contain mature themes or explicit content.

The website’s account registration, newsletter subscriptions, and contact forms are not directed to children under 13. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact me so I can investigate and arrange appropriate deletion.

Copyright and Use of Website Materials

Unless otherwise credited, original written content on this website is owned by Tonya Nagle or the applicable rights holder. Book covers, photographs, illustrations, logos, guest contributions, and promotional materials may have separate owners or licensing terms.

You may link to public pages and share content through available sharing features. Links must not falsely imply an endorsement, partnership, or other affiliation.

Reproduction, redistribution, adaptation, or resale of protected materials requires permission unless permitted by law or an express license. Nothing in this policy restricts fair use or other applicable legal exceptions.

Resources provided with specific usage permissions are governed by those permissions.

For permission requests, email tonyanaglephd@gmail.com.

Information and Educational Resources

Website content is provided for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes. General writing and publishing information does not replace individualized legal, tax, financial, or other regulated professional advice.

Although I aim to keep information accurate and current, publishing practices, platform requirements, availability, and external links may change. No particular sales results, publication opportunities, audience growth, or platform acceptance are guaranteed.

Service Inquiries

Descriptions of author services are invitations to inquire. Submitting a form does not create a client relationship, guarantee acceptance of a project, or reserve production time.

Any accepted project will be governed by a separate written agreement addressing scope, fees, payment arrangements, timeline, revisions, cancellation, and deliverables.

You retain ownership of materials you submit. Submitting an inquiry or project material does not give me permission to publish it or use it for promotion. You should submit only materials you own or have permission to share.

External Links and Purchases

I do not sell products or accept payments directly through this website.

Links may take you to Amazon, other retailers, membership platforms, social networks, or independent services. Those websites operate under their own terms and privacy policies.

Purchases completed elsewhere are governed by the seller’s or platform’s payment, delivery, cancellation, and refund terms. Questions about those transactions should be directed to the responsible seller or platform.

An external link does not imply endorsement unless expressly stated.

Affiliate Disclosure

Some links on this website are affiliate links. If you purchase through one of these links, I may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Relevant content will identify affiliate relationships.

Recommendations reflect my own opinions and experiences. Receiving a commission does not guarantee a favorable review.

Acceptable Website Use

Do not use the website or its forms to impersonate another person, submit fraudulent or unlawful material, infringe another person’s rights, distribute malicious software, or interfere with website operation.

Changes to This Policy

This page may be updated when website features, services, or information practices change. The date above identifies the latest revision. Additional notice or consent will be provided where required by applicable law.
