GENERAL QUESTIONS

What is your mailing address?

CAKE&WHISKEY Magazine
2310 Far Hills Avenue Suite 1
Oakwood, Ohio 45419

What is your readership?

The readership of CAKE&WHISKEY is international. From C-Suite businesswomen to start-up entrepreneurs to grad students and grandmothers, CAKE&WHISKEY is devoted to telling the stories of all women on their career journey, at every stage.

Why cake & whiskey?

The idea was born initially as an event: a way to connect women who had passion for ideas and goals but shied away from a typical networking event. Both cake and whiskey were served at that initial hobnob and several months later, CAKE&WHISKEY; the Sweet & Spirited World of Business magazine was born. Our founder loved the play on words, and discovered that women, as well as men, resonated with the balance of both needed in business and life.

How can I get involved in a hobnob?

CAKE&WHISKEY hobnobs happen in cities around the country throughout the year. Jump over to our hobnob page to see the dates and locations of the upcoming hobnobs. Don’t see one currently being hosted in your city and you’d like to spearhead that? Let us know!

How can I/my business be featured in the magazine?

We are very often asked, “Where do you find your amazing stories?!” We love that question.

Our stories do not come from PR pitches, from articles recently published on Huffington Post or Forbes. Instead, we here at CAKE&WHISKEY use much of our energy just keeping a pulse on what women are doing around the world. We ask questions, we visit locations, we touch base with our contacts in various countries, and we join in on hobnobs to meet real women doing seemingly ordinary things that we find to be quite remarkable….and think our readers will too.

Do you offer internships?

Yes! We offer several internships throughout the year, both in-studio and remote. Please check internships.com for the latest.

Do you have any job openings?

Since we rely mostly on freelancers, we do not have any full-time positions available. If you would like to freelance for us, please send your resume and samples to editor@cakenwhiskey.com

Where can I purchase a copy of the magazine in person?

CAKE&WHISKEY is carried in Barnes and Noble locations nationwide, as well as at independent bookstores worldwide. If you would like to see CAKE&WHISKEY in a shop close to you, let both them and us know!

How often is the magazine released?

CAKE&WHISKEY is published quarterly as follows: Spring (February-April), Summer (May-July), Autumn (August-October), and Winter (November-January).

ONLINE ORDERING

Can I order any back issues?

Yes. All of our back issues can be ordered in single issues or in back issue bundles that can be purchased through our store here.

Are there any plans to print additional copies of sold-out issues?

Some of our back issues are in very limited quantities. Once they are sold out, they will not be reprinted.

I subscribed, but I’m not sure which issue will be my first. How do I know?

By default, your first issue will begin with the next printed issue. If you’d like your subscription to begin with the most recent issue (i.e. the magazine currently out), please specify when you place your order. Every subscription includes four issues.

What is your refund policy?

We hope you’ll love CAKE&WHISKEY, but your satisfaction is our top priority. If you would like to cancel your subscription, you can call (844-442-9183), email (C&W@pubservice.com), or mail your request to our subscription team. For phone-in cancellations, we assume you want a refund and will process it accordingly. Email and mail-in cancels are processed without a refund unless it is specifically requested. We’re sorry, but we don’t issue any refunds under $5.00.

SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

When is my magazine slated to ship?

Magazines are released mid to late month on the date listed above. If you see the cover image on social media has been announced, this does not mean that the magazine is already available. Just that the magazine is nearing release.

Please note that we process all mailings through a fulfillment center that ships the magazine via USPS bulk mail; delivery can take 1-4 weeks, depending on your location. If you have questions about your order, please email us at info@cakenwhiskey.com.

Every issue of CAKE&WHISKEY is a timeless storytelling publication. Hence, the stories are designed to still be relevant well past the cover date.

How do I update my mailing address?

Please send an email to info@cakenwhiskey.com, including your old and new addresses. We will reply to confirm receipt of the request.

PRIVACY

What is your privacy policy?

Your security and privacy are important to us, so we want to be sure you know the practices we use to protect your privacy as a CAKE&WHISKEY customer and as a visitor to our website. [Updated: 05/07/15]

The Information We Collect
When you order from our website, the types of personal information collected at these page are: Name, Address, Email address, Phone number, and Credit/Debit card information

There is an instance when you can enter information about someone else. If you order a gift and want it sent directly to the recipient, the types of personal information collected are: Name, Address, Email Address, and Phone number

The Way We Use Information
We use the information you provide about yourself when placing an order to complete the order. It is necessary to furnish this information to our third party fulfillment partners, such as our printer, in order to quickly fulfill your order. Because your information is shared with our third party fulfillment partners, the information is governed by the privacy policies of the recipients of the information.

Disclosure to Other Third Parties
It may be necessary − by law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from governmental authorities − for CAKE&WHISKEY to disclose certain parts of the information you have provided us to applicable third parties. We may also disclose this information if we determine that for purposes of law enforcement or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary or appropriate. We may also disclose this information if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce our terms of service or protect our operations or users. Additionally, in the event of a reorganization, merger, or sale of CAKE&WHISKEY, we may transfer any and all personal information we collect to the relevant third party.

Tracking 
We do use tracking software to observe user traffic patterns throughout our site, but we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. Tracking information is used only to determine which areas of our site users like and don’t like, and how well each page performs on behalf of our guests. This helps us continue to build a better service for you. We also monitor search terms and titles entered at our site as a means of knowing what interests our customers; however, we do not track which terms a particular user enters.

Security 
When you place orders, we provide the use of a secure server. The secure server software (SSL) encrypts all information you enter before it is sent to us. And all customer data we receive is protected against unauthorized access. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Fair Credit Billing Act
The safety of every online transaction is important to us. This means you pay nothing if unauthorized charges are made to your card as a result of shopping at our online store. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, your bank cannot hold you liable for more than $50.00 of fraudulent charges. If your bank does hold you liable for any of this $50.00, we will cover the entire liability for you, up to the full $50.00. We will only cover this liability if the unauthorized use of your credit card resulted through no fault of your own from purchases made while using the secure server. In the event of unauthorized use of your credit card, you must notify your credit card provider in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures.

How You Can Access or Correct Your Information 
You can access all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain by contacting us through our toll-free number at (844) 442-9183. We use this procedure to better safeguard your information. You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows error. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.

CAKE&WHISKEY reserves the right to modify or amend this privacy policy at any time. It is our policy to post any changes we make to our privacy policy on this page, and the date this policy was last revised is identified at the top of this entry. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices. You will be notified of any material changes to this privacy policy which are less protective of your information prior to such changes becoming effective. We may notify you of these changes by email reminders, by notice on this site, or by other acceptable means.
