Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 1, 2026 (free chapter emails added)

What we collect

When you buy, Stripe collects your email address and payment details. We receive your email address and the edition you purchased so we can deliver your files. We do not see or store your card number.

When you ask for the free chapter, we collect your email address, the date you signed up and which of our emails you have received.

How we use it

We use your email only to deliver your purchase, to send you the audiobook, to answer your questions and, if you agree, to tell you about related books. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Free chapter emails

If you sign up for the free chapter and tick the consent box, we email you the chapter and then a few emails about the book, including occasional special offers. Our legal basis is your consent. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, and you can also simply reply "unsubscribe". We keep your address on our email list (stored with Resend) until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. If you buy a book, we stop sending you the offer emails.

Who we share it with

We share data only with the services needed to run the store: Stripe (payments), Resend (email delivery and our email list), Vercel (website hosting) and Cloudflare (secure file storage). We do not sell your data.

Cookies and analytics

This site may use cookies and similar technologies for measuring advertising performance, for example from Meta. You can block them in your browser settings.

Your rights

You can ask us to see, correct or delete your data at any time by emailing us.
