Privacy notice
Updated November 2, 2026.
The site
authorship.press is a static site. It sets no tracking cookies, runs no advertising or analytics scripts, and holds no form. Your book project runs in the portal at portal.authorship.press, and this notice covers it too.
What the book project holds
- Your email address, which is how you sign in: with an email link, or with Google, which sends us the address on your Google account.
- Your name and your application answers, which you type.
- What you add: recordings, transcripts, links, comments, notes, your bio, and your photo.
- What happened and when: what you sent, what you accepted, and the dates on your book project.
- Sign-in and security records, so we can tell if someone else tries to reach your project.
To build your book we transcribe what you send with automated software, and the editors arrange and edit that text with the help of automated tools.
Why we hold it
To run your book project, answer you, deliver your book, and keep the record of the work.
Who runs it with us
Outside services that host the site and the portal, store files, deliver email, and process what you send. Your recordings and their transcripts pass through services we do not run before the editors work on them, and we share only what those services need to do that work.
We do not sell your data, and we do not run advertising trackers.
How long we keep it
As long as we need it to run the engagement and deliver your book, and then for a reasonable archival period after that. Ask for deletion and we will make commercially reasonable efforts to delete it from our working systems. We cannot delete copies held in backups or by outside services.
What you can ask for
Ask what we hold about you, correct it, or ask us to delete it. Reply to any message from us, or add a note on any card in your book project, and it reaches the person who runs your book.
If someone reports that your material names them or takes their content, we may remove it. The site terms of use say when.
Changes to this notice
We may update this notice, and the date at the top changes when we do.
