Privacy policy
Last updated 10 November 2026.
Who we are
Compulsive Reader (compulsivereader.net) is a book club and author magazine. You can contact us about privacy at info@compulsivereader.net.
What we collect
We only collect what you choose to send us:
- Newsletter: your email address, when you sign up.
- Submissions, RSVPs and messages: your name, email and whatever you write to us, sent by email.
We don't ask for payment details on this website, and we don't sell or rent your information to anyone.
How we use it
We use your email address to send the newsletter you asked for, reply to your message, confirm a book club place, or contact a giveaway winner. We keep submission emails for as long as we need them to respond and to keep a record of our coverage.
Newsletter and giveaways
You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every newsletter, or by emailing us. Giveaway winners are chosen from subscribers and community members; we use a winner's details only to send their prize.
Cookies and analytics
This website does not set advertising cookies. If we add visitor statistics in future, we will update this page first.
Third parties
Our newsletter and podcast may be hosted by third-party services (such as a newsletter platform or Spotify). When you use those services, their own privacy policies apply.
Your rights
You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by emailing info@compulsivereader.net.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page.
