3. Email Communication
If you choose to subscribe to the Evelyn Grace Books email newsletter, you’re name and email address may be stored and processed through MailerLite, our email service provider.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails.
Entering a giveaway, contest, reading challenge, or other promotion does not automatically subscribe you to our newsletter. If a promotion gives you the option to join the newsletter, subscription is voluntary and is not required to enter unless clearly stated otherwise where permitted by law.
Transactional or administrative emails - such as notifying you that you have won a promotion - may still be sent when necessary even if you are not a newsletter subscriber.

When you enter a giveaway, reading challenge, or other promotion, we may collect information necessary to administer the promotion. This may include your name, email address, entry materials, and other information needed to verify eligibility, select and contact winners, and deliver prizes.
When you voluntarily participate in reader programs such as birthday or Christmas card programs, we may also collect information such as your mailing address and birthday information for the purposes of providing that perk.
Information collected for these purposes will not automatically be added to our marketing email list unless you separately choose to subscribe.
