Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 12, 2026

Richard Perkey (“Rich,” “I,” “me,” or “my”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and shared when you visit RichardPerkey.com (the “Website”), contact me, or subscribe to my email newsletter.

1. Information We Collect

The information collected depends on how you interact with the Website.

Information You Provide

When you submit a contact form, subscribe to the newsletter, or otherwise contact me through the Website, you may provide information such as:

Your name
Your email address
Your phone number, if requested
The content of your message or inquiry
Any other information you voluntarily provide

If you subscribe to the newsletter, your email address and related subscription information may be collected to manage your subscription and deliver email updates.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Website, certain information may be collected automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information, referring website, pages visited, and information about how you interact with the Website. This information may be collected through cookies and similar technologies used by Wix and other services integrated into the Website.

2. How We Use Your Information

Information collected through the Website may be used to:

Respond to questions, messages, and other inquiries
Send monthly newsletters to people who subscribe
Manage newsletter subscriptions and process unsubscribe requests
Understand how visitors use the Website and improve its content, functionality, and performance
Maintain the security and proper operation of the Website
Comply with applicable legal obligations

3. Email Newsletter

The Website uses Wix email marketing services to manage and deliver the monthly newsletter. If you subscribe, your email address and related subscription information will be processed through Wix to facilitate delivery and manage your subscription.

You may unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in a newsletter email. You may also contact me using the information provided in Section 10 to request removal from the mailing list.

Unsubscribing from the newsletter does not prevent me from responding to an inquiry you have submitted or retaining information where reasonably necessary for legitimate business purposes or legal obligations.

4. Cookies and Analytics

The Website is built and hosted using Wix. Wix may use cookies and similar technologies to support essential website functions, security, performance, and other services.

The Website may also use Google Analytics or related Google tracking technologies in the future to understand how visitors find and use the Website. If enabled, these tools may collect information such as pages visited, visit duration, referring websites, browser and device information, and interactions with the Website.

Analytics information will be used to evaluate and improve the Website's performance and visitor experience.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Browser-based cookie controls may not prevent all forms of tracking. Where required by applicable law, consent will be requested before non-essential cookies or tracking technologies are used. If cookie-consent settings are available on the Website, you may use them to manage your preferences.

Third-party analytics services may process information according to their own privacy policies. For more information about Google's data practices, visit Google's Privacy Policy.

5. How Information Is Shared

Personal information may be shared in the following circumstances:

Service providers: With Wix and other service providers that help operate the Website, manage newsletter subscriptions, deliver emails, provide analytics, or maintain website security.
Legal requirements: When disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, legal process, or a valid governmental request.
Protection and security: When reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, property, or security of the Website, its visitors, or others.
Business changes: In connection with a transfer or restructuring of the business, where permitted by applicable law.

I do not sell personal information for monetary consideration. However, some privacy laws define “sale” or “sharing” more broadly, including certain transfers of information for advertising or analytics purposes. Where applicable law grants you rights regarding such activities, those rights will be respected.

6. Third-Party Websites and Book Retailers

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, including retailers where visitors can purchase Seeking the Big Time, as well as external websites related to speaking engagements, leadership advisory services, and other professional activities.

If you follow a link to another website, that website's own terms and privacy policy will apply to your activity there. I do not control and am not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites.

Purchases made through external book retailers are handled by those retailers, not through this Website. Please review the relevant retailer's policies before providing payment or personal information.

7. Data Retention and Security

Personal information is retained for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, managing newsletter subscriptions, maintaining website records, and meeting applicable legal obligations.

Information that is no longer needed may be deleted or otherwise disposed of, subject to applicable retention requirements.

Reasonable measures are used to help protect personal information. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

8. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on your state of residence and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain information, or to opt out of certain processing activities.

You may unsubscribe from email newsletters at any time using the unsubscribe link in the email. You may also contact me to ask questions about your information or submit a privacy-related request.

To make a request, use the contact information in Section 10. I may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests. Any request will be handled in accordance with applicable law.

9. Children's Privacy

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed toward children under the age of 13. I do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Website, please contact me so that the information can be reviewed and, where appropriate, deleted.
