Privacy Policy:

Who I Am This website is run by W.A. Simpson, author of The Hatter’s Daughter, Steelbound, and other works of fantasy fiction. My website address is: https://authorwasimpson.com.

What This Site Collects If you choose to leave a comment or fill out a form, WordPress may collect the information you enter (like your name or email), along with basic technical details such as your IP address and browser type. This helps with spam prevention and site security.

Cookies If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name and email in cookies so you don’t have to re‑enter them next time. These cookies last for one year and are entirely optional.

Embedded Content Some pages may include embedded content—such as book trailers, social media posts, or videos. Embedded content behaves just as if you visited the original site, which may collect its own data according to its policies.

Who Your Data Is Shared With I don’t sell or share your personal information. WordPress and its spam‑filtering tools may process basic technical data to keep the site secure and functioning.

How Long Data Is Kept If you leave a comment, it and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps the site recognize and approve follow‑up comments automatically.

Your Rights If you’ve left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data this site holds about you. You can also request that I erase any personal data stored here. This does not include data I’m required to keep for security or legal reasons.

Where Your Data Goes Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
