Privacy policy

Your security and privacy are important. Natalie Nokomis maintains the following standards to help protect your personal information as you use this website. Please read this Privacy Policy in its entirety to understand how we will collect and handle the privacy of your personal information. To ensure we start things off on the same page, here are a few terms we’ll be using. Whenever we say “I”, “we,” “us,” “our,” “Natalie,or ” Natalie Nokomis,” we’re referring to all names used by the Natalie Nokomis brand. Our “Services” and “products” include providing published music tracks, brand merchandise, and other digital content to you. And by “you,” we mean a visitor of https://Natalie Nokomis.com (“Site”). This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) covers how we collect and use any information that might be used to personally identify you (“Personal Information”).

  1. Overview

This Policy applies to any person or entity that directly or indirectly uses or accesses the Site, Services, or any other properties owned by Natalie Nokomis. You must be 18 or older to use the Site and Services. If you’re not, you shouldn’t submit any Personal Information to Natalie Nokomis or use the Site. This Policy is effective with respect to any data that we have collected, or collect, about and/or from you. By using the Site (for example, when you access the Site or utilize the Services), you consent to our collection, use, and sharing of your personal information as described in the Policy. We may use and disclose the information that you provide through the Site only for purposes permitted or required by law, for purposes described in this Policy, or for purposes that you might authorize. If you do not wish for us to use or disclose your Personal Information as described in this Policy, please do not use the Site.

  1. Information We Collect
  2. a) Information you voluntarily provide. When you sign up for and use the Services, purchase a product, submit a contact form message, comment on our blog, or communicate with us in any way, you voluntarily give us information. This may include your name, username, email address, physical address, phone number, and credit card information.
  3. b) Information automatically collected. When you use the Site, we collect details about you and your visit, such as your IP address, browser settings, operating system, language preferences, and on-site behavior. This data is anonymized and cannot be tracked back to you.
  4. c) Information from your use of the Services. We collect information regarding how you use the Services — such as your purchase history, the time and date of your purchases or song downloads, and your IP address — and store it in log files associated with your account.
  5. d) Information collected by cookies.We use cookies to track your usage of the Site in order to improve your experience. You can learn more about our Cookie Policy in the next section.
  6. Cookie Policy

As most websites do, we collect information about you through the use of “cookies” — small files that are transferred from your browser to your computer’s hard drive. Cookies allow us to know certain things about your visit to the Site and personalize your experience. We use both session and persistent cookies. Session cookies are used to maintain tracking of a user through an application and expire at the end of a visit to the Site. Persistent cookies do not expire at the end of the session, but rather are stored on your hard drive and read by your browser each time you visit the Site.

  1. a) Why we use cookies. We use cookies and similar technologies to improve your experience on the Site by making it easier for you to navigate through the Site, save your preferences, and make Site features work better. For example, when you log in, we set cookies to save your login information. We also use cookies to track links that we receive affiliate commission from.
  2. b) What cookies track. Cookies may collect information regarding your browser, type of computer, operating system, Internet service provider, and other similar information. Cookie technology may also gather information about the areas you visit on our Site and about the links you may select from within our Site to other areas of the Internet. We do not extract Personal Information during this process.
  3. c) Affiliate Marketing. We are part of several affiliate marketing campaigns including Amazon Associates, Impact Marketing, Shopify Affiliates, and others. Affiliate marketing involves embedding a tracked link into any products or services we may use and recommend. These may be in blog posts or anywhere else on the site. If you click and order an item from one of our affiliate partners, we receive a small commission for that referral. It costs nothing to you and the commission is used to pay for the expense of maintaining this site. The link contains a cookie that is stored in your browser cache and/or your hard drive. For more information, please visit my affiliate disclosure page.
  4. d) How to change cookie settings. Most browsers allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please refer to your browser instructions to learn more about these functions:

Keep in mind that if you reject cookies, functionality of the Site will be limited, and you may not be able to take advantage of many of the Site’s features.

  1. How We Use Your Information

By using the Site and providing us with your Personal Information, you consent to our use of such information as described in this Policy. You may always refuse to provide your Personal Information. But this may lead to our inability to provide you with Services offered under the Site. We use your Personal Information in connection with the Site to do the following:

  1. a) Provide the Services. The Personal Information we collect is essential to our Services. For example, if you sign up for the free email newsletter, we’ll use the information you submit to send you the newsletter. Likewise, if you purchase a song from the Site, we’ll use your payment details to process your order.
  2. b) Promote the Site or Services. If you sign up for our email newsletter, we may occasionally send promotional messages about our blog posts or other paid products. You can unsubscribe from our email distribution list at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any email you receive from Natalie Nokomis. (But please note that you will still receive transactional emails related to any Services.)
  3. c) Administer and improve the Site and Services. By collecting Anonymous Information about how you use the Site and Services, we aim to make the Natalie Nokomis website more useful to you and others.

  5. When We Share Your Information

Other than for the specific purposes listed below, we will not disclose your Personal Information unless we obtain your prior consent. And we will never rent or sell your Personal Information.

  1. a) Processing payments. The Natalie Nokomis website doesn’t directly process transactions completed on the Site. Instead, we rely on Shopify to provide this service for us. This business partner has access to your Personal Information only to the extent necessary to perform these specific functions and may not use it for any other purpose. To learn more about how Shopify uses and protects your data, visit Shopify’s privacy policy page.
  1. b) Deploying email campaigns. If you give us your email address, that information will be transferred to and processed by MailChimp, an email service provider. As one of our data processors, MailChimp allows us to collect and securely store your email address and deploy email campaigns to you. For more information, please refer to Mailchimp’s Privacy Policy.
  2. c) Measuring website traffic behavior. This Site uses Google Analytics and Bing Webmaster traffic monitoring programs. These programs are used to analyze the statistical data in order to improve site visibility and performance. Learn more about Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster. Also, our web hosting company, HostGator, collects anonymous data about this Site’s traffic. By using this Site, you accept the terms of HostGator’s Privacy Policy. You can find the HostGator Privacy Policy here.
  3. d) Meeting legal requirements. We may share your information in order to comply with court orders, valid subpoenas, and other legal processes, or if we find that your action on our Site violates the Subscription Terms and Conditions, the General Terms of Service, or any of our usage guidelines for specific Services.
  4. How We Store and Protect Your Information

Natalie Nokomis follows standard policies and procedures to protect the privacy and confidentiality of your Personal Information that we collect and maintain. For example, we use encryption — such as secure socket layer (“SSL”) technology to protect your data. However, due to the design of the Internet and other factors outside our control, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and our servers will be free from unauthorized access by third parties or by government agencies. You remain responsible for the security of information in transit to us over the Internet. Any unauthorized use of the Site may result in criminal and/or civil prosecution. In the event of a security breach, we will notify you by email using the address you submit to us, if any. If you sign up for the Services, we will retain your Personal Information for as long as the information is relevant to our business purposes or until you request that we remove the data. If you submit a message to Natalie Nokomis via a contact form on the Site, we will collect and use your email address and message content only to send you a reply. This information will be kept private and stored in our email system, and we will not retain your information for any longer than necessary or use it for any other purpose.

  1. How to Access Your Information

If you sign up for any Services, you may request an exported file of your Personal Information, including any data you have provided to us. You may also request that we update or erase any personal data we hold about you. (This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.) If you’re an email subscriber, you may unsubscribe or update your user profile at any time by clicking the links in the footer of any email you receive from us.

  1. Content from Other Websites

The Site may contain links to other websites. Please be aware that Natalie Nokomis is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites, and therefore we disclaim any liability for any third party’s use of your Personal Information. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our Site and to read the privacy statements of each and every site that collects personally identifiable information. This Policy applies only to information collected by this Site. This Site may also include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, multimedia) from other websites. Embedded content from another website behaves as though you have visited the other website. As such, these websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content — including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged into that website. An example of this would be an embedded YouTube player. If you watch a YouTube video on the Site, Google Inc. may collect information about your viewing of the video.

When you send us an email or register for our newsletter, you are communicating with Natalie Nokomis electronically. You thereby consent to receive communications from us electronically. We will communicate with you by email or by posting notices on the Site. All agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
