Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Launchieve Investment LLC d/b/a BookFellaz ("BookFellaz," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, shares, stores, and protects personal information through bookfellaz.com, project forms, communications, and BookFellaz services.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect information you provide directly, including:
- name, email address, phone number, and contact details;
- book title, description, genre, publishing platform, author journey, package interest, requested add-ons, and project notes;
- author biography, photographs, branding, social links, website content, book metadata, manuscript excerpts or files, cover materials, creative references, and other project materials you choose to provide;
- billing, invoice, and transaction information, excluding complete payment-card details processed directly by third-party payment providers;
- communications, feedback, approvals, and project history; and
- other information voluntarily submitted through inquiry forms, Author Intake, email, calls, meetings, or project tools.
We may also collect technical information automatically when you use the website, such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP address, and cookie or analytics identifiers where such technologies are used.
2. Author Intake and Project Materials
Information submitted through Author Intake or during a project may include unpublished or commercially sensitive creative materials. BookFellaz uses those materials only as reasonably necessary to evaluate, communicate about, and perform the requested services, maintain project records, protect legal rights, and comply with applicable obligations.
Do not submit passwords, full payment-card numbers, government identification numbers, or other highly sensitive credentials through ordinary website forms. If account access is required for a project, BookFellaz may provide or request an appropriate access method separately.
3. How We Use Information
We may use personal information to:
- respond to inquiries and schedule conversations;
- evaluate project requirements and recommend services;
- prepare proposals, invoices, scopes, and project plans;
- provide and manage BookFellaz services;
- communicate about revisions, approvals, delivery, support, and billing;
- process payments through third-party payment providers;
- maintain business, accounting, security, and legal records;
- improve the website, services, and customer experience;
- prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents;
- send marketing communications where permitted by law; and
- comply with legal obligations and protect our rights or the rights of others.
4. Payment Information
Payments may be processed by third-party payment processors or financial-service providers. BookFellaz does not directly store complete payment-card numbers or card-security codes. Payment providers process information under their own privacy policies and security practices.
5. Service Providers and Sharing
We may share information with service providers that help us operate the website or deliver services, such as hosting providers, domain and website tools, CRM and communication systems, cloud storage, project-management tools, analytics providers, email services, payment processors, advertising services, AI or creative-production tools, and professional advisers.
These providers may access information only as reasonably necessary for their services or as otherwise permitted by law. We may also disclose information where required by law, to protect rights or safety, to investigate fraud or abuse, or in connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, sale, or restructuring of all or part of the business.
BookFellaz does not sell personal information for monetary consideration.
6. AI-Assisted Tools
Some BookFellaz workflows may use AI-assisted tools for creative production, analysis, drafting, image or video generation, summarization, or other project tasks. Where Client materials are processed using third-party AI services, those services may process information as a service provider or under the terms applicable to the relevant tool. BookFellaz will not intentionally use confidential Client materials for unrelated model training.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
BookFellaz may use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for website functionality and may also use analytics, attribution, advertising, or performance technologies where enabled. Where required by applicable law, non-essential technologies will be subject to the choices presented through the website's cookie or consent controls.
You may also control cookies through your browser settings, although disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.
8. Marketing Communications
BookFellaz may send marketing emails or make business-related calls or messages where permitted by law. You may request that we stop marketing communications at any time using the unsubscribe or opt-out method provided or by contacting us through the website. Project, billing, security, and other transactional communications may continue where reasonably necessary.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including active projects, customer service, business records, accounting, legal obligations, dispute resolution, security, and enforcement of agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the relationship with the Client.
10. Security
BookFellaz uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. No website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute security.
11. International Processing
BookFellaz and its service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. Where required, we use reasonable measures intended to support lawful international processing or transfer of personal information.
12. Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of certain personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You may also have rights relating to certain targeted advertising or data-sharing activities where applicable.
