Last Updated: September 2026 • Applicable to Global Alpha Nifty Publishing & Resale Portal
1. Overview & Introduction
Welcome to Global Alpha Nifty Publishing. We value your trust and are committed to protecting your personal information and privacy rights. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and disclose information when you visit our website, read our educational publications, or apply for our Digital Resale Licence programme.
By using this website or submitting an application through our reseller portal, you consent to the data practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with our platform, we collect information in the following ways:
A. General Visitors & Readers
No account registration or personal credentials are required to browse our website or preview educational content. We may collect non-personal technical telemetry such as browser type, operating system, and anonymous page interaction statistics solely to improve reading performance.
B. Reseller Applicants (/resale)
To maintain an authentic, verifiable network of licensed digital distributors, applicants are required to provide:
- Real Legal Name: As per government ID (no aliases).
- Active Business WhatsApp: For direct identity verification.
- Email Address: For official licensing notifications.
- Country & Selling Platform: Website, channel, or store URL.
- Digital Signature: Cryptographic/drawn verification image.
3. Purpose of Processing & Use of Information
We use the collected information strictly for legitimate business and regulatory purposes:
- Identity & Licence Verification: To verify that applicants are real individuals or legitimate businesses prior to granting permission to resell our copyrighted books.
- Direct Communication: To reach you directly via your active Business WhatsApp number or email regarding application status, approval details, or compliance queries.
- Licence Issuance & Certificate Generation: To generate tamper-proof digital licences (e.g., 14-character identifiers such as
GAN8R6T2W9K4P7) and downloadable verification certificates. - Anti-Piracy & Copyright Protection: To distinguish legitimate authorized resellers from unauthorized redistributors or counterfeiters.
4. Public Reseller Registry & Data Transparency
To protect readers and consumers from piracy, our website hosts a public Authorized Resellers Directory (/resellers) and verification lookup tool (/licence/:licenceId).
What is shown publicly:
Once an application is approved, the reseller's Real Legal Name, Licence ID, Granted Publications, Validity Status, and Business Selling URL are publicly visible so customers can confirm their authorization.
What remains strictly private:
Your private phone number, WhatsApp contact link, email address, and digital signature are never displayed in the public search directory or index.
5. Data Protection & Security Measures
We employ industry-standard security protocols to safeguard your personal data:
- Encrypted Transmission: All data transmissions are encrypted using standard HTTPS/TLS protocols.
- Row-Level Security (RLS): Resale applications and private records are stored in protected database tables with strict administrative access control.
- Protected Storage for Signatures: Digital signature images are held in private storage buckets accessible exclusively by authenticated publishing administrators.
- No Sale of Data: We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketing companies or brokers.
6. Third-Party Links & Services
Our platform may contain links to external third-party services, including WhatsApp (Meta) for instant support/communications, Superprofile for digital distribution, and social media platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or policies of these external third-party services. We encourage you to review their respective privacy statements.
7. Cookies & Local Storage
Our site uses minimal local storage solely to enhance your user experience (e.g., remembering current book reader page number and theme preferences). We do not deploy intrusive tracking cookies or third-party behavioral advertising scripts.
8. Data Retention & Your Rights
Reseller records and issued licences are retained for as long as necessary to enforce copyright integrity, verify digital sales history, and maintain the public registry. You have the right to request review or correction of inaccurate contact information by contacting our administrative team.
