This Privacy Policy explains how Lisa A. Moore ("I", "me", or "my") collects, uses, and protects the personal information of visitors to this website and subscribers to the The Alley Dispatch newsletter. I am based in Mooresville, North Carolina, United States, and this policy is designed to comply with the United Kingdom's UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) as administered by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).
The data controller for this website is Lisa A. Moore, based in Mooresville, North Carolina, United States. For any privacy-related enquiries, requests, or concerns, you may contact me at: [email protected]
I collect only the minimum information necessary to operate my newsletter.

I do not collect payment information, physical addresses, phone numbers, or any other personal data. I do not use tracking cookies, analytics scripts, or behavioural profiling tools on this website.
Your email address is collected for one purpose only: to send you the The Alley Dispatch newsletter, containing updates about my writing, upcoming book releases, and other communications related to the Lisa A. Moore author brand. I will never use your information for any other purpose. I do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with any third party for their own marketing purposes.
