Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

Placeholder notice: This privacy policy is placeholder language only. It requires review and finalisation by a qualified legal professional before the site launches publicly. Do not rely on this text as legal advice or as a compliant privacy statement.

12X Media Press (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is operated by J. Bruce Eickelman. This policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit this website or interact with our content.

Information we collect

We may collect personal information you provide voluntarily, including your name and email address when you sign up for the Reading Room, submit a contact form, or place an order. We do not collect information automatically beyond what is standard for website hosting (such as server logs).

How we use your information

We use the information you provide to send you the Reading Room emails you signed up for, to respond to your contact messages, and to process orders where applicable. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

Email communications

If you join the Reading Room mailing list, you will receive periodic emails from 12X Media Press containing essays, book notes, free resources, and updates. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send. We use a third-party email provider to send these communications.

Cookies

This site is a static website with no tracking cookies, analytics scripts, or advertising technology installed at launch. If this changes, this policy will be updated to reflect it.

Third-party services

Where we use third-party services (such as an email provider, a payment processor, or a form handler), those services operate under their own privacy policies. We will list specific providers here once they are confirmed.

Data retention

We retain your information for as long as necessary to provide the services you have requested, or as required by law. You may request deletion of your information at any time by contacting us.

Your rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have rights under applicable privacy law to access, correct, or delete your personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us through the contact page.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

For questions about this privacy policy or your personal information, use the contact page.
