Your privacy is a serious matter to us. You may visit our web site (the "Site") anonymously as often as you like without providing any personally identifying information (such as your name, email address, or mailing address). Our Site is a business to business web site, and registration to create an account is by invitation only to those persons who require access to certain proprietary systems for their business needs. If you are invited to register to create an account, we ask you to provide a minimal amount of information that we need to enable you to access and use certain features of this Site, such as our online ordering, inventory management, and sales and marketing systems and information, media booking tools, and other customizations directed to the business needs of the registered user (collectively, the "Services"). We do not collect personally identifying information from you unless you voluntarily provide it, and we will only use such information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and applicable law.
If you are invited to register to use the Services, we will ask you to agree to additional terms and conditions in connection with the registration process (the "Services Agreement"). In order to purchase items through our online ordering systems, you may need to provide billing and shipping information, such as your mailing address and payment information (such as credit card information). We may use other companies to provide information technology support, customer service, and order and payment processing. These other companies will have access to the personally identifying information you provide, but only as necessary to perform their functions and to the extent permitted by law.
Like most major web sites, we use automatic data collection technology when you visit our Site to record information that identifies your computer (like its IP address) and tracks your use of our Site. We may use "cookies" and "clear GIFS" (also known as "pixel tags" or "web beacons") to collect this information. We do not collect personally identifying information in this way, but if you've provided us with personally identifying information we may associate that information with the information that is collected automatically. Automatic data collection may be performed on our behalf by our services providers.
You may update the information that is stored in your user account by visiting http://www.HachetteBookGroup.biz/profile/ or by e-mailing privacy@hbgusa.com If you make this request by e-mail, we will send you a copy of the personally identifying information we have on file in your user account (if any). You may send us new or updated information at any time. We will endeavor to respond to your request to access, update or delete your information as soon as practicable. Before we are able to provide you with any information, correct any inaccuracies or delete any information, however, we may ask you to verify your identity and to provide other details to help us to respond to your request.

We take reasonable steps to protect the security and integrity of all personally identifying information provided on our Site. However, due to the inherent nature of the Internet as an open global communications vehicle, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our system or otherwise in our care, will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others, such as hackers.
If you have received an invitation and created an account on our Site, you and/or your company are responsible for maintaining the strict confidentiality of the account password, and shall be responsible for any access to or use of our Site by you or any person or entity using your password, whether or not such access or use has been authorized by or on behalf of you, and whether or not such person or entity is an employee or agent of the company. You agree to (i) immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (ii) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. It is your sole responsibility to control the dissemination and use of your password, control access to and use of your account, and notify us when you desire to cancel your account on this Site. We will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this provision.
