(Last updated February, 26 2022)

This Privacy Policy, together with our Terms of Use, describes the types of personal information we collect and how we use that information. It also describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your personal information and how you can access, update, and restrict our use of your information. By accessing our website at www.comicsperpage.com (collectively, the “Website”), you signify that you have read this Privacy Policy, and you expressly consent to our collection, use, disclosure, storage and protection of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meanings defined in our Terms of Use.

Who We Are

ComcsPerPage (together with its parent registered company Scribes Unlimited, LLC — collectively, “CCP,” “we,” or “us”) provides an online platform to connect people through lending. We are an Ohio for-profit Limited Liability Company with headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio.

Personal Data We Collect (and How We Collect It)

Basic Personal Information. When you access the Website and offer a donation, we only collect your name and email address. We may receive some information about you from other Users (for example, if they invite you to use the Program,) and from third-party payment processing providers like PayPal (for example name, payment account email address, and in some cases physical address).

Transaction Activity.  We record information about donations through the Program, individually (for example, amount and Recipient). We also collect information on any donations you make (whether through the Website or offline) and information you provide about your Recipient (for example, name and email address for donations).

Recipient Activity.  If you apply to become a Recipient through the Program, we collect information you provide (for example, photograph, email and physical address, phone number, description of your work and finances, personal references, desired goals, payment account, and certain demographic information), as well as information from third parties.  If you are approved to become a Recipient, we record information on individuals you invite to become Donaters, whether or not your goal is successfully funded.

Other Use of CCP Website and Features.  We may collect other information you choose to provide in order to facilitate your participation in the Program or use of Website features. If you invite a friend to use the Website, we will ask you for your friend’s name and email address. CCP stores this information for the sole purposes of sending your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the Website, giving you the ability to send your friend reminders, and tracking the success of our referral program. If you choose to import contacts from your email account address book to invite friends to our Website, our service provider will collect your email address and will use it for that purpose.

Other Interactions with CCP. 

    • If you contact CCP, we will collect the information you provide (for example, your name, email address, physical address, phone number and comment) in order to respond to you.
    • If you submit a project for CCP (for example, a comic project), we collect the information you submit (for example, name, phone number, cover letter, works, and position of interest) to review your project and follow up with you.
    • If you participate in a survey or other promotion, we may request certain personal information from you (for example, name, address, and demographic information).

Technical Data.  If you provide information to us about individuals other than yourself, you must ensure that they have given their permission for you to disclose the information to us and for you to allow us to use it in the ways described in this Privacy Policy.

How CCP Uses Your Personal Information

We will only collect and use your personal data (i) to carry out the terms of a Donation you enter into with the Recipient (including providing our services pursuant to our Terms of Use), (ii) where you have given consent, or (iii) where we have a legitimate interest in conducting our operations, such as:

  • to personalize your experience using the Website and for Recipients to engage with you;
  • to communicate with you about your donations or other Website activity, and to respond to your comments or inquiries;
  • to contact you (via email) with general information about our initiatives, marketing campaigns, surveys or other promotional activities;
  • to analyze and improve our services, communications, and advertising;
  • to monitor compliance with our policies and standards, and to improve security;
  • to deliver an invitation to use the Website by another User;
  • to process applications for employment or volunteer positions;
  • to comply with applicable law or court orders and to exercise or defend our legal rights or the rights of others.

Where we need your personal information in order to provide our services or otherwise process your instructions and you fail to provide that information, we may not be able to carry out your instructions or deliver our services pursuant to our Terms of Use.

Information Displayed Publicly

You do have the ability to stay “anonymous,” which will hide your name from the public. Other information you choose to provide (for example, your occupation, the reasons why you lend, a description of your work, and your website), will only be publicly displayed by going to third-party Websites or platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook.

Invitees.  If you invite other people to use CCP, the names of those who have accepted your invitations and donate to a Recipient of the Website will be displayed in public. It is your responsibility to make those you invite aware of the public displays and the data collected.
