Privacy Policy.

Our Privacy Policy was last updated on: [September 24, 2026]

Welcome to our website. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal data you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website, sign up for our newsletter, or contact us.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information about you in two ways: voluntarily provided information and automatically collected information.

  • Information You Voluntarily Provide:

    • Newsletter Sign-Up: When you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address (and your name, if provided) so we can send you book updates, blog posts, and announcements.

    • Contact Us Form: When you send us a message through our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and any text or information you choose to include in your message.

  • Information Collected Automatically (Cookies & Tracking):

    • Like most websites, when you browse our site, certain information about your device, IP address, browser type, and how you interact with our site is automatically recorded.

2. Website Infrastructure & Hosting Disclosure

This website is built and hosted using the Squarespace platform.

  • Squarespace provides the underlying technical infrastructure, content management system, and database storage for this website.

  • Consequently, the personal information you submit via our forms and the automated traffic data collected during your visit may be processed and stored securely on Squarespace's servers.

3. Cookies and Analytics Disclosure

This website uses cookies and similar technologies to function efficiently and help us understand our web traffic.

  • Functional and Required Cookies: Squarespace places necessary, functional cookies on your device to ensure the website displays correctly, securely, and allows you to navigate smoothly.

  • Analytics and Performance Cookies: If you consent via our cookie banner, Squarespace collects analytics data (such as geographical location, pages visited, and traffic sources) to generate visitor traffic reports. This allows us to see how readers interact with our blog and book pages.

  • For a complete, transparent list of the specific cookies used by our platform, you can view the Official Squarespace Cookie Policy. You can choose to manage or disable cookies directly through your individual web browser settings or by interacting with our website's cookie banner.

4. Third-Party Links & Book Retailers

Our website features blog posts and dedicated pages discussing our books. We do not sell books or process financial transactions directly on this website.

  • Instead, we provide outbound hyperlinks to external third-party marketplaces and online retailers (such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Bloomsbury, IndieBound and others) where you can purchase our books.

  • Please be aware that once you click an outbound link to an external retailer, you leave our website. We do not control, collect, or have access to your financial transactions or shopping data. Your interactions on those marketplaces are governed entirely by the privacy policies of those respective third-party retailers.

5. How We Use Your Data

We use your collected personal information strictly for the following purposes:

  • To deliver newsletter updates, book release news, and blog post notifications that you have requested.

  • To reply directly to fan mail, media inquiries, or questions submitted through our contact form.

  • To maintain, monitor, and optimize the security and performance of our blog and website.

  • We never sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.

6. Your Rights and Data Control

Depending on your location (including California and the European Economic Area), you have specific rights regarding your personal information:

  • Right to Opt-Out / Unsubscribe: You can opt-out of receiving our newsletter at any time by clicking the "Unsubscribe" link located at the bottom of any email we send you.

  • Right to Access or Deletion: You have the right to request that we completely erase your email address and message history from our databases.
