Information we may gather
The Site is operated by Blockonomics, LLC. This Privacy Policy applies to the use of personal information collected by us online as described in this Policy.
We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We do not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. We may obtain the following types of non-personally identifiable information from users and subscribers:
Site usage data
We collect non-identifiable information to measure how our users use our website. This information may include statistics about the numbers and timing of unique visits to the site, repeat visits, and which pages are viewed.
When you visit our website, you will be provided with a notice of our use of cookies. We use cookies—a piece of information stored on your computer—to allow us to uniquely identify your browser while you are visiting our website. Here are reasons we use cookies on our website:
The use of cookies by our partners is not covered by our Privacy Policy. We do not have access or control over these cookies.

Cookies
We may send cookies to your computer in order to uniquely identify your browser and improve the quality of our service. The term “cookies” refers to small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer’s hard drive while you are viewing the website. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them). You have the ability to accept or decline cookies using your web browser settings. If you choose to disable cookies, some areas of the website may not work properly or at all. The website does not respond to Do Not Track signals sent by your browser.
GDPR Rights
As a data subject, within the European Union, you are entitled to certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Those rights include:
We require only the information that is reasonably required to enter into a contract with you. We will not require you to provide consent for any unnecessary processing as a condition of entering into a contract with us by way of downloading a lead magnet, webinar, freebie or any other traditional list building methods.
If you want to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@welibrary.io. Valid requests will be honored within 30 calendar days of request. This 30-day period may be extended for another 2 months for complex requests with notification of the reasons for the extension to you.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances. In addition, there may be requests that we are unable to process because of other EU legal requirements. If a request is denied, we will notify you of the reason.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
If you are located in the EU, you have the right to lodge a complaint with an EU Supervisory Authority. However, if you have a complaint regarding the processing of your personal information we request that you first contact us and we will reply on timely basis.
If you have a rights request, please contact us using the information in the “Contact Information” section of this Privacy Policy.
