How We Collect Information

Disclosure of Your Information

Wiley will not disclose your personal information to any third party except as follows:

• Where necessary in connection with services provided by intermediaries, who are required to comply with this policy. These service providers provide us with a wide range of office, administrative, information technology, production and business management services;

• Where necessary in connection with providing publishing services on behalf of third parties, such as institutions and societies, providing we have your consent.

Wiley may disclose to carefully chosen third parties navigational and transactional information in the form of anonymous, aggregate usage statistics (including "page views" on this website and the products therein) and demographics but only in forms that do not reveal your identity or personal information.

Cross Border Transfers

Wiley may transfer your personal information outside of your country of residence for the following reasons:

• In order to process your transactions. This may occur on servers in countries other than the country where you live. Wiley has servers and major office locations in several countries, in particular in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Singapore, Brazil, India and Australia and has service providers located in India and the Philippines amongst other countries. Such processing may include, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services.
• In order to satisfy global reporting requirements. Wiley may be required to provide your personal information to Wiley affiliates in other countries.

By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy and all applicable data protection laws.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure.

Once we have received your information, we will use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to such information.
