Overview
The Book of Scent aims to collect only the information needed to operate the site, deliver digital content, communicate with readers, and improve the reading experience.
Information We May Collect
- Email address: when you subscribe, request the Free Starter Pack, or join a newsletter.
- Purchase or membership records: if you buy digital products or join a membership through a third-party platform.
- Basic analytics: page views, clicks, referrers, device/browser information, and reading-completion events.
- Messages: if you contact us directly.
How We Use Information
- To send requested downloads, updates, and launch announcements.
- To operate digital products, memberships, and reader support.
- To understand which pages and calls-to-action are working.
- To protect the site from spam, abuse, and technical issues.
Third-Party Services
After launch, this site may link to or integrate with services such as Gumroad, Patreon, Substack, Stripe, ConvertKit, Mailchimp, Netlify, Cloudflare, Google Analytics, Plausible, or Microsoft Clarity. Their own privacy policies will apply to information processed by those services.
Reader Notes and Diary Text
If a private diary, notes, or reader-memory feature is introduced later, it should be handled with extra care. Private diary text should not be used for advertising profiling. Any analytics should be anonymized and aggregated wherever possible.
