Dennis R. O’Brien’s author website respects reader privacy. This policy describes information that may be collected and used when you explore A.I.: The Coming Apocalypse, contact the author, subscribe to updates, or make an available purchase.

Information We Collect

• Information you provide: name, email address, optional telephone number, messages and newsletter preferences.
• Order information, when direct checkout is available: contact details, billing and shipping addresses, ordered products and transaction status. Payment details are processed by the designated payment provider; the website does not intentionally store full payment-card numbers.
• Technical data, if enabled: IP address, device/browser information, visited pages, referral sources and interaction data from hosting, security and analytics services.

How Information Is Used

• Respond to reader, media and event inquiries and provide requested customer support.
• Send opted-in book announcements, release information and author updates.
• Process and fulfill direct orders, where enabled; provide purchase-related notifications.
• Maintain website security, investigate misuse and improve site performance.
• Comply with legal requirements and maintain necessary business records.

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies may be used for site operation, shopping-cart functionality, remembered preferences and site analytics, depending on the features activated. Marketing or analytics tracking tools should be disclosed once the website configuration is verified. Where required, visitors will be given appropriate consent controls. Cookies can also be managed through browser settings.

Email Marketing

Newsletter subscriptions are voluntary. Marketing emails can be stopped using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us. Necessary transactional or service messages may still be sent.

Sharing and Third-Party Services

Information may be shared with relevant service providers for hosting, checkout, email delivery, analytics, security, order fulfillment and shipping, or when lawfully required. We do not sell or rent reader information for unrelated independent marketing. External retailer purchases and interactions are covered by those services’ own privacy policies.

Retention, Security and Individual Rights

Personal data is retained only as reasonably required for services, business records, disputes and legal obligations, then removed or anonymized where appropriate. Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used, but no system is perfectly secure. Depending on applicable law, individuals may request access, correction, deletion or other available privacy rights by emailing the contact address below; identity verification may be required.

Children’s Privacy

This website promotes fiction for an adult audience and is not directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children under 13. If such information is discovered, we will take appropriate steps to remove it in accordance with applicable law.

Use of Submitted Data and Artificial Intelligence

Contact and newsletter information is collected for the purposes described here. We do not use reader submissions to construct the fictional AI characters or train artificial intelligence models for the fictional scenarios described in the novel. Any actual third-party AI-enabled services used on the website should be separately disclosed before deployment.

Changes and Contact

We may update this policy as features or legal requirements change, with a revised effective date. Privacy requests: Dennis R. O’Brien, info@dennyrobrien.com.
