Last Updated: October 18, 2025
1. Introduction
Welcome to Bookified. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you as to how we look after your personal data when you visit our website (regardless of where you visit it from) and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.
While our goal is to collect as little information as possible, some data is necessary to process your purchase and deliver your digital product securely.
2. What Data We Collect and Why
We collect the following personal information for the following reasons:
A. When You Make a Purchase: When you purchase a product from us, we collect the following information as part of the checkout process:
- Your Name: To identify you as a customer and create your account.
- Your Email Address: To send you your order receipt, create your account, provide you with download links, and communicate with you about your order.
- Your IP Address: We may use this to help prevent fraudulent transactions.
B. When You Create an Account: An account is required to access your digital downloads. When an account is created during checkout, we store your name and email address to provide you with a secure, personal area to access your purchased files.
C. Payment Information: We do not see, save, or store your full credit card number or sensitive payment details on our servers. When you enter your payment information at checkout, it is sent securely and directly to our third-party payment processor, Stripe. We only receive a confirmation that your payment has been successfully processed.
3. Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell your personal data. However, we do share it with essential third-party services that allow our store to function.
- WooCommerce: Our online store is built using the WooCommerce platform. WooCommerce helps us manage your orders, accounts, and downloads. You can read more about how WooCommerce handles data in the official WooCommerce Privacy Policy.
- Stripe: We use Stripe to securely process all credit card payments. We share necessary purchase information (like the transaction total and your billing information) with Stripe to authorize your payment. You can view their comprehensive privacy policy at the Stripe Privacy Center.
4. How Long We Retain Your Data
We generally store information about you for as long as we need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it. For example, we will store order information for 7 years for tax and accounting purposes. This includes your name, email address, and order details.
5. Cookies
Our website uses cookies to provide a functional shopping experience. For example, we use cookies to keep track of the items in your cart while you are browsing our site. These are essential for the operation of the website.
6. Your Rights Over Your Data
You have certain rights over your personal data. If you have an account on this site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you.
