Rice Academic Editing ("we", "us", "Andrew Rice") respects your privacy. This policy
explains what information we collect when you use this website or our editing service,
how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
Quote requests. When you submit the quote form we collect your name, email address, manuscript word count, chosen editing tier, and any message you provide.
Manuscripts. If you engage our service, we receive the documents you send us for editing. These are treated as strictly confidential and are never shared with third parties or used to train any AI system.
Technical data. Our hosting provider (Vercel) may collect standard server logs such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited, for security and performance.
How we use your information
To respond to your quote request and communicate with you about your manuscript.
To deliver the editing service you have requested and to process payment once you are satisfied.
To maintain the security and reliability of this website.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with the service providers
needed to operate, such as our form-handling provider (to deliver your quote request to us)
and our hosting provider (Vercel). Each processes data on our behalf under their own
privacy terms.
Confidentiality of your work
Your unpublished research is sensitive. We keep all manuscripts confidential, do not
disclose your work, and delete working copies on request after a project is complete.
Data retention
We keep quote requests and project correspondence for as long as needed to provide the
service and meet legal or accounting obligations, then delete them.
Your rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold
about you. Depending on your location (for example under GDPR), you may have additional
rights. To exercise any of these, email us at the address below.
Placeholder notice for the site owner: Review this policy with a legal
professional before launch and confirm the legal entity name, business address, governing
jurisdiction, exact data-retention periods, and the specific sub-processors you use.
