Privacy Policy Last updated: May 2026
Who I am
This is the website of Rae James, indie romance author. If you have questions about this policy, you can reach me at rae@raejamesauthor.com.
What information I collect
I collect personal information in two ways:
Email list signups — When you subscribe to my newsletter, I collect your name (if provided) and email address. I use this to send you updates about new releases, cover reveals, ARCs, and other bookish news. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any email.
Contact form submissions — When you reach out through my contact form, I collect your name and email address so I can respond to you. I don't store or share this information beyond our conversation.
How I use your information
I use your information only to communicate with you directly — nothing else. I do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
Email marketing
My newsletter is managed through Squarespace. By subscribing, you agree to their terms of service and privacy policy as well as this one. You can unsubscribe at any time.
Cookies and analytics
This site is hosted on Squarespace, which may collect basic analytics data (like page visits and browser type) to help me understand how readers find and use my site. Squarespace may also use cookies for functionality and performance. You can learn more in Squarespace's privacy policy.
I don't run any additional tracking or advertising tools on this site.
Third-party links
My site may link to external platforms like Amazon, TikTok, or Instagram. Once you leave my site, this privacy policy no longer applies. I encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
Your rights
You have the right to:
Access the personal information I hold about you
Request that I correct or delete your information
Unsubscribe from my email list at any time
To make any of these requests, email me at rae@raejamesauthor.com and I'll take care of it promptly.
Changes to this policy
If I update this policy, I'll change the date at the top of this page. I won't notify you of minor changes, but any significant changes to how I handle your data will be communicated directly.
