Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, share, and protect information when you use our website and services.

Effective Date

September 11, 2026

1. Introduction

Book Editing Services Co ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information when you visit https://bookeditingservices.co, communicate with us, request a quote, submit a manuscript, purchase services, or otherwise interact with our business.

This Policy is intended to provide a clear description of our practices. Depending on where you live, additional privacy rights may apply under local law.

2. Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you use the Website and services. We may collect information you provide directly, information generated through your use of the Website, and limited information received from service providers.

Information you provide directly

  • Contact details such as your name, email address, telephone number, billing address, or business information.
  • Project details such as book title, genre, word count, editing goals, deadlines, instructions, and service preferences.
  • Manuscripts, drafts, outlines, notes, reference materials, comments, files, and other content you choose to submit.
  • Communications with us, including emails, contact-form messages, feedback, revision requests, and support inquiries.
  • Billing and transaction information needed to process an order. Full payment-card details are generally handled by third-party payment processors rather than stored directly by us.

Information collected automatically

  • Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, device type, operating system, approximate location derived from IP, and language settings.
  • Pages viewed, referring pages, visit dates and times, links clicked, and other website usage information.
  • Cookie identifiers and similar technical information used for website functionality, security, analytics, and performance.

3. How We Use Information

We may use personal information for the following business and operational purposes:

  • To respond to inquiries, provide estimates, prepare quotes, and communicate about projects.
  • To perform editing, proofreading, manuscript review, publishing-support, and related services requested by you.
  • To process payments, send invoices, maintain transaction records, and manage orders.
  • To deliver files, receive feedback, manage revisions, and provide customer support.
  • To operate, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the Website and our services.
  • To understand website usage, measure performance, and improve content and user experience.
  • To prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents, or unlawful activity.
  • To comply with legal obligations, enforce agreements, and protect our rights and the rights of others.
  • To send service-related communications and, where permitted, marketing communications that you can opt out of.

4. Manuscripts and Confidential Project Materials

Manuscripts and project files may contain personal, confidential, unpublished, or commercially sensitive information. We use submitted materials for the purpose of evaluating, performing, managing, and delivering the services you request.

We may provide access to employees, editors, contractors, or service providers who reasonably need the materials to perform the project. We do not sell client manuscripts. We do not publish substantial portions of confidential or unpublished manuscripts as marketing content without permission.

If your manuscript contains highly sensitive personal information, trade secrets, regulated information, or confidential third-party material, please notify us before submission so that appropriate handling arrangements can be discussed.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to keep the Website functioning, remember preferences, understand traffic, improve performance, and support security. Some cookies may be placed by service providers that help us operate or analyze the Website.

You can control cookies through your browser settings and, where available, our cookie controls. Blocking some cookies may affect Website functionality.

6. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling data for money. We may disclose information in limited circumstances, including:

  • Service providers that help with payment processing, website hosting, email, file storage, analytics, security, customer support, or business operations.
  • Editors, contractors, or other personnel engaged to work on your project, where access is reasonably necessary to provide the service.
  • Professional advisers such as accountants, lawyers, insurers, or auditors where reasonably necessary.
  • Government authorities, courts, regulators, or other parties where disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, property, or the integrity of our services.
  • A buyer, successor, or relevant adviser in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, sale of assets, reorganization, or similar business transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.

7. Payment Processing

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers. Those providers may collect payment-card, bank, billing, fraud-prevention, and transaction information under their own privacy policies. We generally receive transaction confirmation and limited billing information rather than full payment-card credentials.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including providing services, maintaining business and tax records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, preventing fraud, and meeting legal obligations.

Project files and manuscript materials may be retained for a reasonable period after project completion to support revisions, file recovery, quality control, or client service, unless a different retention arrangement is agreed in writing. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and legal or operational requirements.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. However, no internet transmission, email system, cloud service, or electronic storage method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for using secure devices, safeguarding your own account and email access, and avoiding the submission of information that is not necessary for the project.

10. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights relating to your personal information. These may include the right to request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of certain information, and the right to object to or limit certain uses.

To make a privacy request, contact us at info@bookeditingservices.co. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

California privacy notice

California residents may have additional rights under applicable California privacy laws, subject to eligibility, statutory thresholds, exemptions, and the nature of our business. Where required, these rights can include requests to know, access, correct, or delete certain personal information and rights relating to certain forms of sharing or sale. We do not discriminate against a consumer for exercising a privacy right protected by law. If our legal obligations change as the business grows or our data practices change, we may update this Policy and provide any additional notices required by law.

11. Marketing Communications

If you receive promotional email from us, you may unsubscribe by using the unsubscribe option included in the message or by contacting us. We may still send non-promotional communications related to active projects, transactions, invoices, security, or other service matters.

12. Children's Privacy

Our Website and services are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorization, please contact us so we can review and take appropriate action.

13. International Visitors

Our business is based in the United States. If you access the Website or use our services from another country, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States or other locations where our service providers operate. Data-protection laws in those locations may differ from those in your country. Where required, we take reasonable steps to handle personal information in accordance with applicable law.

14. Third-Party Websites and Services

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy, security, or content practices of third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal information.

15. Do Not Track and Browser Signals

Some browsers offer "Do Not Track" or similar privacy signals. Because there is not a single universally accepted standard for all such signals, our Website may not respond to every browser-based signal in the same way. Where applicable law requires recognition of a particular opt-out preference signal, we will handle it as required.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our services, technology, business practices, or legal requirements. The revised Policy will be posted on the Website with an updated effective date. Material changes may also be communicated by other reasonable means where required.
