Last updated: 10 November 2026
Goldfinch Lane Books is a small independent publisher. Cozyholme Press, Miss Dee and our Goldfinch Lane authors are part of it. This page explains what we collect when you ask for free pages, claim a reader bonus or sign up for our emails, and what we do with it.
Who we are
Goldfinch Lane Books, Horsley Court, Montaigne Close, London SW1P 4BF, United Kingdom. Email hello@goldfinchlanebooks.com.
What we collect
- Your email address and, if you give it, your first name.
- The kinds of books you chose, and the free pages or reader bonus you asked for.
- Where you signed up, for example our website, a Facebook form or a page printed in one of our books.
- Whether you ticked the box to get our emails, and when.
- If you claim a reader bonus, which of our books you own. We use this so we do not send you offers for a book you already have.
- Whether you open or click our emails. Our email service records this, and we use it to send fewer emails to people who stop reading them.
We do not use advertising or tracking cookies on this website, and we do not run website analytics.
How we use it
- To send what you asked for. When you ask for free pages or a reader bonus, we email you a copy to keep. We do this because you asked us to.
- To send emails about our books, only if you tick the box. New books in the kinds you chose, free pages, reader bonuses and the occasional offer. At most one or two emails a week. Every email has an unsubscribe link.
- To keep our list healthy. If you have not opened an email for about three months, we ask once whether you still want to hear from us. If you do not answer, we stop writing.
Your browser
On the Choose your emails page, your email is remembered in your own browser so you do not have to type it again. It stays on your device and is not a cookie. Tap "Not you, or a new email?" on that page, or clear your browser data, to remove it.
Who helps us
We use a few trusted services. They handle your details only to provide their service to us.
- MailerLite sends our emails and stores our list.
- Cloudflare hosts this website and our free pages.
- Tally and Zapier run some older sign up forms while we move them to this website.
- Meta (Facebook and Instagram) when you sign up through one of our Facebook forms. Meta's own privacy policy applies there.
When you tap a link to Amazon, you leave our website and Amazon's privacy notice applies. We do not see who buys our books on Amazon.
We never sell, rent or swap your details.
How long we keep it
We keep your details while you are on our list. When you unsubscribe, we stop emailing you and keep only a record that you unsubscribed, so we never add you back by mistake. Ask us and we will delete everything.
Your rights
You can ask to see the details we hold about you, to correct them, to delete them, or to stop us using them. You can withdraw your consent to emails at any time by unsubscribing. Write to hello@goldfinchlanebooks.com and we will reply within a month. If you are unhappy with how we handle your details, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk) or the data protection authority where you live.
Children
Our Miss Dee books are for children, but our forms and emails are for the grown ups who buy them: parents, grandparents and teachers. We do not knowingly collect details from anyone under 16.
Changes
If we change this page, we will update the date at the top. If a change matters, we will tell you by email.
