This privacy policy discloses the privacy practices for Archive Binge. This privacy policy applies solely to information collected by this web site. It will notify you of the following:

Information Collection, Use, and Sharing

We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We only have access to/collect identifying information that you voluntarily give us by entering your information through a form, via email, or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.

We will use your information to respond to you regarding the reason you contacted us (e.g. support or feedback). We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request and only with your permission, or if required for legal reasons.

Anonymous usage information may be collected to identify or resolve technical or issues with the administration of the website. This information includes the client IP address and user agent which are anonymous and cannot reliably be tied to an individual.

Your Access to and Control Over Information

You can do the following at any time by contacting us via the email address given on our Contact page:

Registration

In order to use all features of Archive Binge, a user must first complete the registration form. During registration, signs in through one of the provided social media authentication methods. The information pulled from the social media service to identify the user consists of the user’s OAuth ID. No additional information is requested or stored.

If you choose to provide it, Archive Binge will store a username, a picture of your choosing (“User Avatar”), and your email address. Your email address will not be shared with third parties and is only used to send a periodical digest of your comic subscriptions. These emails are opt-in only. You may opt-out of these emails at any time on the Email Digest page.

Stored User Information

The user information stored in our database consists of:

No further information is requested or stored at this time. Any changes to this policy will be outlined here. The items marked with * are publicly accessible by viewing your user profile on Archive Binge.

Security

We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

Data Transmission

On the main listing site (archivebinge.com), information is transmitted to us over an encrypted connection. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the web page.

On the reader site (reader.archivebinge.com), information is transmitted over an unencrypted connection. This is due to the mixed content that comes from embedding comic websites which often cannot be served over an encrypted connection due to the limitations of many comics’ hosts. No sensitive data is transferred to or from the reader site. If you are a registered and logged-in user, the main site transfers your user ID to the reader site and the reader site transmits the pages read and your decision to subscribe to or favorite a comic back to the main site. No other data is transmitted over this unencrypted connection.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment. You can find information on the data center used by our hosting company here.
