Privacy Policy
Effective: April 2, 2026
TKG Publishing LLC ("we," "us," "our") respects your privacy. This policy applies to all websites operated by TKG Publishing, including tkgpublishing.com, sevenminutesbook.com, and afterthisbook.com. It explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep it straightforward because we believe privacy policies should be readable.
What We Collect
When you purchase a book through our websites, our payment processor (Stripe) collects your name, email address, billing address, and payment information. We receive your name, email, and shipping address to fulfill your order. We do not see or store your full credit card number.
When you subscribe to our mailing list, our email service provider (MailerLite) collects your email address and any additional information you choose to provide.
Our websites may collect basic, anonymized analytics data such as page views and referral sources. We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to fulfill book orders, send shipping confirmations, and communicate with you about your purchase. If you subscribe to our mailing list, we use your email address to send updates about upcoming titles and events. That's it.
Who We Share It With
We share your information only with the third-party services necessary to operate our business. These are: Stripe (payment processing), MailerLite (email communications), and USPS or other shipping carriers (order fulfillment). We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone.
Data Retention
We retain order information for as long as necessary to fulfill your purchase and comply with tax and legal obligations. You may request deletion of your mailing list subscription at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us directly.
Your Rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time by emailing us. If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect and the right to request its deletion.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your information. Payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe, which is PCI-DSS compliant. We do not store payment card data on our servers.
Children's Privacy
Our websites and services are not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
