Privacy Policy
Last updated 3 September 2026
This is a small website belonging to one author. I collect as little as possible, I do not sell anything about you to anyone, and this page explains plainly what happens when you visit or subscribe.
What I collect
If you join the newsletter, I collect the first name and email address you type into the form. That is all the form asks for and all it stores.
If you just read the site, I collect nothing myself. There is no analytics software, no advertising pixel and no tracking script on these pages.
Who else is involved
- AWeber runs my mailing list. When you subscribe, your name and email are stored on AWeber's systems and used to send you emails from me. AWeber records ordinary email statistics such as whether a message was opened or a link was clicked. See the AWeber privacy policy.
- My web host keeps standard server logs, which typically include IP addresses and browser information. This happens on almost every website and I do not use those logs for marketing.
- Google Fonts supplies the typefaces on this site, which means your browser makes a request to Google when the page loads.
- Amazon sets its own cookies if you follow one of my book links. See the affiliate section below and my affiliate disclosure.
What I use your email for
New release announcements, cover reveals, the occasional bonus scene, and sale notices. Nothing else. I do not sell, rent, trade or share my subscriber list, and I will not add you to anything you did not ask for.
Getting off the list
Every email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom and it works immediately. You can also email me and I will remove you myself. No hard feelings and no follow-up questions.
Your rights over your data
You can ask me at any time to tell you what I hold about you, correct it, or delete it entirely. Email ThisIsPanda@PandaDJones.com and I will action it. If you are in the UK, EU or California you have these rights under law; I extend them to everybody regardless of where you live, because keeping two sets of rules would be silly.
Children
This site and these books are intended for adults. I do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16.
Affiliate links
Some links on this site earn me a small commission. That is covered fully on the affiliate disclosure page.
Changes
If this policy changes I will update the date at the top. If the change is significant, I will say so in the newsletter.
Contact
Questions about any of this go to ThisIsPanda@PandaDJones.com. A real person reads it.
A note on this page. This describes my actual practice in plain English rather than legal boilerplate. It is not legal advice, and privacy obligations differ by country. If you rely on this site commercially or your circumstances are unusual, have a solicitor look it over.
