Effective Date: October 16, 2026

At Boshers Publishing LLC, we value your trust and respect your privacy. Whether you are exploring our books, submitting a manuscript, purchasing publishing services, joining Boshers Advisory, or participating in Boshers Academy, we are committed to handling your personal information responsibly.

This Privacy Policy explains the information we collect, how we use it, when it may be shared, and the choices available to you.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information you voluntarily provide when you interact with our website, including:

  • Your name, email address, phone number, and mailing or billing address.

  • Information submitted through contact forms, publishing inquiries, consultations, or manuscript review requests.

  • Manuscripts, project descriptions, documents, creative materials, and files you choose to submit.

  • Information associated with purchases, orders, subscriptions, courses, and workshops.

  • Member account details and preferences.

  • Messages, feedback, reviews, and communications with our publishing team.

  • Information provided by parents or guardians when registering minors for eligible educational activities.

Our website and its service providers may also collect technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, website activity, referring pages, and cookie information.

Payment details are handled through payment processing services. Boshers Publishing does not ordinarily receive or store complete payment card numbers.

2. How We Use Your Information

We may use collected information to:

  • Respond to questions and publishing inquiries.

  • Evaluate manuscript submissions and provide requested publishing services.

  • Process purchases, payments, registrations, and subscriptions.

  • Manage Advisory memberships and Academy course access.

  • Deliver digital products, downloads, and educational resources.

  • Communicate about book projects, revisions, approvals, appointments, and deadlines.

  • Provide customer support and account assistance.

  • Send newsletters, writing tips, publishing updates, and promotional messages when permitted.

  • Improve our website, services, and customer experience.

  • Protect our website, maintain security, and comply with applicable laws.

We use personal information for legitimate business purposes, to fulfill agreements, with your consent where required, and to comply with legal obligations.

3. Manuscript and Author Information

We recognize that manuscripts and creative projects may represent years of personal work.

Materials submitted for review or publishing services are used for evaluating inquiries, communicating with authors, and performing agreed-upon services.

We do not claim ownership of your manuscript merely because you submit it through our website.

We may share relevant project materials with editors, illustrators, designers, or other authorized service providers when reasonably necessary to evaluate or perform requested work. Such individuals should receive access only as needed for their responsibilities.

Any additional confidentiality, intellectual property, licensing, or publishing arrangements will be governed by the applicable written agreement.

We will not intentionally publish or commercially exploit an unpublished manuscript merely because it was submitted for consideration.

4. Memberships, Courses, and Digital Products

When you join Boshers Advisory, register for Boshers Academy, or purchase digital resources, we may collect information necessary to administer your account and provide access.

This may include your name, email address, membership or enrollment status, purchase records, course participation, and progress information.

Certain activities, such as member discussions or reader community posts, may be visible to other authorized participants. Please avoid posting sensitive personal information in community areas.

Access to paid or private materials is subject to the applicable membership, enrollment, or purchase terms.

5. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website is operated using Wix and may use cookies and similar technologies for site functionality, login sessions, shopping carts, security, preferences, and website analytics.

Depending on the services enabled, analytics or marketing tools may also collect information about how visitors use our website.

You can manage certain cookies through your browser settings and any available cookie preference controls on our website. Disabling essential cookies may affect login, checkout, or other site functions.

Where applicable law requires consent for nonessential tracking technologies, we will honor those requirements.

6. Sharing Information With Third Parties

We may share information when reasonably necessary with trusted providers that help operate our business, including:

  • Wix and website hosting or membership services.

  • Payment processors and e-commerce providers.

  • Email communication and marketing platforms.

  • Authorized publishing contractors and service providers.

  • Analytics, technical support, and security providers.

  • Shipping, printing, or distribution partners involved in fulfilling applicable orders.

We may also disclose information when legally required, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or in connection with a lawful business transfer.

We do not authorize service providers to use unpublished manuscripts for their own independent publishing purposes merely because they process information for us.

Some advertising or analytics disclosures may be classified as a sale or sharing of personal information under certain privacy laws, even when no money is exchanged. Where such laws apply, we will provide the required notices and choices.

7. Email Communications and Marketing

If you subscribe to our newsletter or otherwise agree to receive promotional communications, we may send writing tips, publishing information, announcements, offers, and business updates.

You can unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link in an applicable message or by contacting us.

We may still send essential transactional communications about purchases, appointments, ongoing projects, account security, and memberships.

8. Children's Privacy and Youth Programs

Boshers Publishing primarily serves adult authors, customers, and readers. Certain Boshers Academy educational activities may be designed for younger participants.

Parents or legal guardians must handle registration and permissions for children under age 13 unless we have implemented an appropriate parental consent process.

Children under 13 should not independently create accounts or submit personal information through our website without the required parental involvement and consent.

For activities involving children, we seek to collect only information reasonably necessary to administer participation, communicate with parents or guardians, and provide the educational activity.

Where the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act or another applicable children's privacy law applies, we will provide required notices, obtain appropriate parental consent, limit retention, and honor parental rights to review, request deletion, or stop further collection or use of their child's information.

Parents and guardians may contact us with concerns about a minor's personal information.

9. Data Security and Retention

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the information we handle.

However, no website, internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain business records, meet legal requirements, resolve disputes, and protect legitimate business interests.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, whether an active publishing agreement exists, and applicable legal requirements.

10. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you.

  • Request correction of inaccurate information.

  • Request deletion of certain information.

  • Withdraw consent where processing depends on consent.

  • Opt out of certain marketing communications or data-sharing practices.

  • Request additional information about how your data is used.

Some requests may be subject to lawful exceptions, including contractual and recordkeeping obligations.

To submit a privacy request, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

11. External Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, retail platforms, social media services, or publishing resources.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites. We encourage you to review their policies before sharing information.

12. International Visitors

Our business operates in the United States. If you access our website from another country, information may be processed or stored in the United States or other locations where our authorized service providers operate, subject to applicable legal protections.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our services, technology, or legal requirements change.

The latest version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
