Our website and your privacy
Romantic Discoveries Recordings is committed to your privacy. As a result we have created this policy to explain how we gather and use information collected from this website.
Our privacy policy is concerned with the use of data collected by your use of this website and any purchases you may make through it.
We do not collect any personal data from you if you merely browse this site, although our website host WordPress.com may collect your ISP address (the identity of your computer or device) and which pages have been accessed for statistical purposes. Simply browsing this site and not sending us a purchase form or query will not result in any identifiable personal data being held about you.
No payments are collected from you via this site: if you buy a CD, your payment is collected by PayPal whose privacy policy will apply separately to you.
There is no need for you to have an online account with us to browse this site. No sign-up or log-in is required. The use of our site, unless you choose to contact us, is therefore anonymous.
