Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 7, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Yarber Institute Press, operating as part of The Yarber Institute for Surrendered Living (collectively, "we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal information when you visit
yarber-institute-press.com, purchase products or services, submit forms, request resources, subscribe to communications, or otherwise interact with us.

Our website is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix provides the online platform and related services that allow us to operate our website and online store. Information submitted through the site may therefore be stored and processed through Wix's data storage, databases, applications, security systems, and service providers, subject to Wix's own privacy practices.

1. Information We Collect
We may collect the following categories of information, depending on how you use the website:

 

• Information you provide directly, including your name, email address, telephone number, billing and shipping addresses, account or login information if applicable, and information you include in messages or forms.

• Order and transaction information, including products or services purchased, order history, fulfillment information, and related customer-service communications.

• Information submitted through contact forms, newsletter or email sign-ups, speaking inquiries, resource requests, surveys, reviews, comments, or other communications.

• Technical and usage information collected automatically, such as Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser and device information, operating system, referring or exit pages, pages viewed, dates and times of visits, session activity, and approximate location derived from IP address.

• Cookie and similar-technology information used for essential site functions, security, preferences, performance, analytics, and, where enabled and permitted, marketing.

 

Payment information is processed through payment gateways or payment service providers made available through or connected to the Wix platform. We do not intend to store full payment-card numbers on our own systems.

2. How We Collect Information
We collect information when you voluntarily provide it to us, such as when you complete a form, contact us, subscribe, make a purchase, request a resource, create or use an account if that feature is available, or otherwise communicate with us. We and our service providers may also collect certain technical and usage information automatically when you visit or interact with the website.

​

3. How We Use Information
We may use personal information to:

 

• Operate, maintain, secure, personalize, and improve the website and online store.

• Process payments, purchases, orders, returns, customer-service requests, and fulfillment.

• Respond to contact requests, speaking inquiries, resource requests, questions, and other communications.

• Send transactional or service-related communications concerning purchases, accounts, inquiries, or requested information.

• Send promotional or marketing communications where permitted and where any required consent has been obtained.

• Understand website performance and visitor interactions through analytics and related tools, subject to applicable consent requirements.

• Prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents, and other harmful or unlawful activity.

• Comply with legal, tax, accounting, regulatory, and recordkeeping obligations, and establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

 

4. Wix Platform, Storage, and Security
The website is hosted on Wix.com. Personal information collected through the website may be stored through Wix.com's data storage, databases, general applications, and related infrastructure. Wix states that it uses security measures for its platform, including secure servers and other safeguards.

Where direct payment gateways offered by Wix are used, Wix states that those gateways adhere to applicable PCI-DSS requirements for secure handling of payment-card information. Other connected payment providers may maintain their own security and privacy practices.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we handle. However, no electronic transmission, website, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

​

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website uses cookies and may use other tracking technologies. Essential cookies may be placed because they are necessary for security, core site operation, network management, shopping-cart or account functions, and other requested services. Depending on our enabled Wix features and integrations, non-essential cookies may also be used for preferences, analytics, performance, or marketing.

Where required, visitors are given choices regarding non-essential cookies through the cookie-consent tools enabled on the site. Wix's privacy tools may record consent choices, including information such as IP address, device information, date and time, and the categories of cookies accepted or refused.

Third-party applications or integrations connected to the site may use their own cookies or similar technologies and are governed by their own privacy practices. Browser settings may also allow you to manage or block cookies, although
disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.
 

6. Analytics
The website may use Wix Analytics and may use other analytics tools that are enabled from time to time. Analytics can help us understand website traffic, page performance, visitor interactions, and the effectiveness of our content or services. Where our cookie-consent configuration requires consent for analytics cookies, analytics data may be limited until the visitor provides the required consent.
 

7. Marketing and Communications
If you subscribe to marketing communications or otherwise provide the required permission, we may use your contact information to send newsletters, announcements, resources, promotions, or other updates. Consent requirements may vary by location and by the method used to subscribe. 

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link included in those messages or by contacting us. Opting out of promotional communications does not prevent us from sending transactional, service-related, legal, or security communications when appropriate.
 

8. How We Share Information
We may share personal information only as reasonably necessary with service providers and business partners that support our operations, including:

​

• Wix and providers supporting website hosting, e-commerce, security, analytics, forms, communications, and related platform functions.

• Payment processors and payment gateways.

• Email, communications, and marketing service providers.

• Book printers, distributors, fulfillment providers, shipping carriers, and other providers needed to complete and support orders.

• Professional advisers such as accountants, attorneys, insurers, and other consultants where appropriate.

• Fraud-prevention, cybersecurity, and technical-support providers.

 

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or other lawful process; protect rights, property, safety, or security; investigate suspected fraud or misuse; or facilitate a merger, acquisition, reorganization, financing, sale of assets, or similar business transaction.

​

9. Sale or Transfer of Personal Information
We do not represent that we sell personal information for monetary consideration. Certain privacy laws define "sale," "sharing," or targeted-advertising data transfers more broadly. If our practices trigger an applicable opt-out requirement, we will provide the required notice or mechanism, including through Wix privacy tools or another appropriate method, and will update this policy as necessary.
 

10. Book Orders and Fulfillment
Products purchased through the website may be printed, distributed, fulfilled, or shipped by third-party providers. We may provide those providers with information reasonably necessary to complete and support an order, such as your name, shipping address, contact information, product and order details, and related fulfillment information. Those providers may process information under their own privacy terms and contractual obligations.
 

11. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including customer service, order administration, fulfillment, accounting, tax, legal compliance, dispute resolution, fraud prevention, security, and recordkeeping. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the purpose for which it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.

 

12. Your Privacy Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights concerning your personal information, which may include the right to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or information about certain
disclosures or processing; to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; or to opt out of certain sales,
sharing, or targeted advertising.

Requests may be submitted through the Contact page at yarber-institute-press.com. We may need to verify your identity or request before acting. We will respond in accordance with applicable law. Wix provides site-owner tools that can assist with eligible access and deletion requests involving information stored through the Wix platform.
 

13. Withdrawing Consent
Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw that consent, subject to applicable law. You may use available cookie settings to change eligible cookie choices, use the unsubscribe link in marketing emails, or contact us through the website's Contact page regarding other consent-based processing. Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that was lawful before the withdrawal.
