Privacy Policy

Sign-up form: your name and email, so we can email you about the book — that's all it's used for. Reply "unsubscribe" to any email, or write to us, and we'll remove you within 10 business days.

Questionnaire: the reader questionnaire is hosted by Google Forms. Whatever you enter there is collected under Google's own privacy policy, and we only receive the answers you choose to submit.

Donations: when the site starts accepting donations, payments will be handled by a third-party payment processor. We never see or store your full credit card number — the processor handles that directly, under its own security standards (PCI DSS) and privacy policy. We'll only receive your name, donation amount, and enough information to confirm the transaction and send a receipt.

We may also use basic, non-identifying analytics to see how many people visit the site.

We never sell, rent, or share your information beyond what's described here.

Our website host, email provider, and payment processor may store data outside Canada, including in the US, subject to that country's laws. If you'd rather avoid that, email us directly instead of using the forms.

Sign-ups: until you unsubscribe, or 24 months after the book is published — whichever comes first.

Donation records: as long as required for tax and accounting purposes (generally up to 6 years, per CRA requirements).

Email us to see, correct, or delete your information — we'll respond within about 30 business days, as BC's privacy law (PIPA) requires.

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, though no site is 100% secure — we'll tell you promptly if a breach could genuinely harm you. If we update this policy, we'll change the date at the top.
