Cookie Policy

This page explains the cookies our website uses. The short version: we use very few, none of them are for advertising, and we don't track you across other websites.

What cookies are

Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work at all; others help the site owner understand how the site is used. We use only the kinds described below.

The cookies we use

• Essential sign-in cookie— when you sign in with a magic link, we set a session cookie that keeps you signed in and protects your account. The site can't offer accounts without it, so it can't be turned off while you're using your dashboard.
• Privacy-friendly analytics— we use lightweight, aggregate analytics to count page visits and see which pages are useful. It doesn't build an advertising profile or follow you around the web.

What we don't use

We don't use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party tracking cookies. We don't sell or share browsing data for marketing.

Checkout cookies

When you go to buy The Author's Blueprint, checkout is handled by Lemon Squeezy, our merchant of record. Their checkout page may set its own cookies to process your order securely and prevent fraud. Those cookies are governed by Lemon Squeezy's own cookie and privacy policies.

The consent banner

Where required, we show a consent banner the first time you visit so you can accept or decline non-essential cookies. Essential cookies are always on because the site needs them to function; the analytics cookie is enabled only in line with your choice. You can change your decision at any time by clearing the banner choice in your browser and reloading the site.

Controlling cookies in your browser

You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings, and set your browser to warn you before accepting them. If you block the essential sign-in cookie, you won't be able to stay signed in to your dashboard, but the rest of the site will still work.

Changes to this policy

If our cookie use changes, we'll update this page and revise the “last updated” date above.
