We are not responsible for how independent third parties subsequently use information that has been made publicly available.

NYN Reviews currently does not provide a conventional user-account or login system.

Accordingly, we do not currently maintain a standard customer profile containing a username and password for Website users.

This may change in the future.

If we introduce user accounts or materially change the information we collect, we may update this Privacy Policy and provide additional notices where required.

16. How We Share Personal Information

We may disclose personal information to third parties when reasonably necessary to operate our business or provide requested services.

• security providers;
• technology vendors;

• business successors.

We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary sense of selling a customer database for money.

However, certain advertising, analytics, or marketing technologies may involve the sharing of identifiers or usage information with third parties. Where applicable law treats such activity as a “sale,” “sharing,” targeted advertising, or similar regulated activity, we will comply with applicable requirements.

17. Service Providers and Data Processors

We may engage third-party companies to perform services on our behalf.

For example, third-party providers may help us with:

• hosting;
• payment processing;
• email delivery;

• technical support;
• communications; and
• Website functionality.

These providers may have access to personal information only to the extent reasonably necessary to perform their services, subject to their contractual or legal obligations.

18. Payment Providers

Payment transactions may be processed by third-party payment providers.

When you make a payment, information may be transferred to the relevant payment provider.

The payment provider may collect and process payment information independently under its own privacy policy and terms.

NYN Reviews is not responsible for the privacy practices of independent payment providers.

19. International Data Transfers

NYN Reviews operates from India but may use service providers located in other countries.

As a result, personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in jurisdictions outside India.

Those jurisdictions may have privacy laws that differ from the laws applicable in your country.

Where required by applicable law, we will take appropriate measures concerning international transfers of personal information.

By using the Website and providing information to us, you acknowledge that information may be processed in countries other than the country in which you reside, subject to applicable legal requirements.

20. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including:

• providing services;
• maintaining business records;
• processing payments;
• resolving disputes;
• preventing fraud;
• maintaining security;
• complying with tax and accounting obligations;
• complying with legal requirements;
• enforcing agreements; and
• protecting our legal rights.

Different categories of information may be retained for different periods.

Where personal information is no longer required and there is no legal or legitimate reason to retain it, we may delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it.

Applicable law may require us to retain certain transaction, accounting, tax, or legal records for a specified period.

21. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, misuse, or destruction.

Security measures may include:

• access controls;
• authentication controls;
• encryption where appropriate;
• secure transmission technologies;
• hosting security;
• monitoring;
• backups;
• administrative safeguards; and
• other reasonable security measures.

However, no Internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by us.

22. Your Responsibility

You are responsible for ensuring that information you provide to NYN Reviews is accurate and lawful.

You should not provide:

• passwords;
• payment-card security codes;
• unnecessary sensitive information;
• confidential information belonging to another person;
• personal information of children unless you are authorized to provide it; or
• information that you do not have permission to submit.

If you submit information relating to another person, you should have an appropriate legal basis or authorization to do so.

23. Children's Privacy

NYN Reviews may publish or review books intended for children.

The fact that NYN Reviews may feature children's books does not mean that we intentionally require children to provide personal information to us.

Our Website is not designed to require children to create accounts, and NYN Reviews currently does not offer user accounts or login functionality.

We seek to minimize the collection of personal information from children.

Where applicable law requires verifiable parental or lawful-guardian consent before processing a child's personal information, we will seek to comply with those requirements.

We do not knowingly request unnecessary personal information from children.

We do not intentionally use children's personal information for behavioural monitoring or targeted advertising where prohibited by applicable law.

If you are a parent or lawful guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information to NYN Reviews in circumstances where such information should not have been collected, please contact us at:

contact@nyncreativestudios.com

We will review the request and take appropriate action consistent with applicable law.

Because NYN Reviews may contain children's books, parents, guardians, authors, publishers, and other adults should avoid submitting unnecessary personal information concerning children.

24. Children's Book Authors and Publishers

If an author or publisher submits a children's book to NYN Reviews, information necessary to provide the requested service may be collected from the submitting adult.

This may include the adult's:

• name;
• email address;
• telephone number;
• payment information;
• publisher information; and
• other service-related information.

The presence of a child character, child's name, photograph, illustration, or other child-related material in a book does not by itself mean that NYN Reviews has collected that information directly from the child.

25. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

These rights may include, where applicable:

• the right to obtain information about processing;
• the right to access personal information;
• the right to correct inaccurate information;
• the right to request deletion;
• the right to withdraw consent;
• the right to object to certain processing;
• the right to request restriction of processing;
• the right to data portability;
• the right to opt out of certain marketing;
• the right to lodge a complaint with a competent authority; and
• other rights provided by applicable law.

The exact rights available to you depend on the laws applicable to your circumstances.

26. Rights Under Indian Data Protection Law

NYN Creative Studios is based in India and seeks to comply with applicable Indian data-protection requirements.

India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 establishes obligations concerning lawful processing of digital personal data, consent, notice, security safeguards, children's data, retention, and individual rights.

The Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025 were subsequently notified by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. The Rules contain a phased commencement structure, meaning that different provisions become operative at different times.

Where the applicable provisions of Indian data-protection law apply to NYN Creative Studios and your information, we will process personal data in accordance with those requirements.

27. Requesting Access, Correction, or Deletion

28. Withdrawal of Consent

Where we process personal information based on consent, you may request withdrawal of that consent.

Withdrawal of consent will not necessarily affect:

• processing already completed;
• information that we are legally required to retain;
• information necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
• information necessary for security or fraud prevention; or
• other processing permitted by law without consent.

29. Marketing Communications

You may receive promotional communications from NYN Reviews if you have requested them, consented to them where required, or where otherwise permitted by applicable law.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions contained in the communication.

Even after opting out of marketing communications, you may continue to receive important service-related communications.

30. Do Not Track

Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” setting.

Because there is currently no universally accepted technical standard for responding to all Do Not Track signals, NYN Reviews may not respond to every browser-based Do Not Track signal.

We will respond to legally recognized opt-out mechanisms where applicable.

31. Third-Party Websites

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, services, social-media platforms, payment providers, publishers, retailers, or other websites.

• their security practices;
• their content;
• their data practices; or
• their use of information.

We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every third-party website you visit.

32. Social Media

NYN Reviews may maintain or link to social-media profiles and may display social-media content.

If you interact with us through a social-media platform, that platform may independently collect and process your information.

Your interaction with a social-media platform is governed by that platform's terms and privacy policy.

33. Search Engines

Reviews and other book-related content published on NYN Reviews may be indexed by search engines.

Search engines may independently store, cache, display, or reproduce publicly available information.

NYN Reviews cannot control how third-party search engines process publicly available information.

34. Business Transfers

If NYN Creative Studios or NYN Reviews is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, sale of assets, change of ownership, or similar transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate notice concerning such changes.

We may share relevant information with payment processors, security providers, law-enforcement authorities, or other parties where reasonably necessary and legally permitted.

We attempt to keep personal information accurate and reasonably current.

If you discover that information we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may contact us at:

contact@nyncreativestudios.com

We may update or correct information where appropriate.
