Information We Collect

Information you provide. When you contact us, request information about bulk or wholesale orders, or make a purchase, we may receive your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, organization name, order details, and the information you include in your message. The information collected depends on how you interact with us.

Purchase information. When you buy through Payhip or another sales platform, that platform collects information needed to process your order. We may receive customer contact information, delivery details, and transaction records needed to fulfill the order and provide support. Payment information is processed by the checkout platform and its payment providers. Please do not send payment card details through our contact form or by email.

Website information. Our hosting provider and any enabled website tools may collect technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, referring website, and visit dates and times.

Send newsletters or promotional emails if you choose to subscribe.

The providers involved depend on your purchase or interaction with us.

For example, fulfilling a physical book order may require sharing your name, delivery address, and order details with a printing or shipping provider.

We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Some information may need to be retained for legal, accounting, or other permitted purposes. For information held independently by a retailer or payment platform, you may also need to contact that provider directly.

Children’s Privacy

If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate steps, including deleting information as required by law.
