Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

No Spice Books ("we", "us") runs nospicebooks.com (the "Site"). This policy explains, in plain language, what information we collect and what we do with it. If anything here is unclear, please contact us.

What we collect

  • Account information. If you create an account, we store your name, email address, and an encrypted password.
  • Things you submit. Book ratings, reading lists, contact-form messages, book submissions, and anything else you send us through the Site.
  • Newsletter sign-ups. If you subscribe, we store your email address so we can send you the newsletter.
  • Basic usage data. Standard server logs and anonymous analytics (pages visited, rough device info) so we can keep the Site working and improve it.
  • Error reports. When something breaks, we may collect technical details about the error so we can fix it.

Why we collect it

To run the Site, give you the features you signed up for, send the newsletter if you opted in, respond to your messages, and keep things working. We don't sell your information.

Service providers

We use third-party services to host the Site, store data, send email, and track errors. They only see what they need to perform that service for us, and they're bound by their own privacy obligations.

Cookies and local storage

We use cookies and browser storage for essential things like keeping you signed in and remembering preferences.

Your choices

  • You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any email.
  • You can delete your account at any time by contacting us.

Children

The Site is not intended for children.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent change. Continuing to use the Site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
