Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 15, 2026

Reading Fern respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you when you visit ReadingFern.com, subscribe to Reading Fern emails, or interact with our website.

Information We Collect

When you subscribe to Reading Fern emails, contact us, or otherwise voluntarily provide information through our website, we may collect:

• Your first name, if provided
• Your email address
• Information you voluntarily provide through a form or message
• Basic technical information that may be collected through our website and email service, such as browser type, device information, IP address, pages visited, and email or link engagement

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information through our website or email signup forms.

How We Use Your Information

We may use your information to:

• Manage your Reading Fern email subscription
• Send new product releases, reader finds, occasional bookish content, shop updates, and special offers
• Respond to questions or messages you send us
• Improve our website, products, and communications
• Maintain the security and operation of our website and email list
• Comply with applicable legal requirements

We only use your email address for Reading Fern marketing communications when you have chosen to subscribe or otherwise provided appropriate consent.

You may unsubscribe at any time by selecting the unsubscribe link included at the bottom of our emails.

Email and Website Services

Reading Fern uses ​Kit​ to manage email subscriptions, send emails, and provide certain website or landing-page functionality. Information submitted through a Reading Fern signup form may be processed and stored by Kit according to its own privacy practices.

Reading Fern may also link to third-party websites and platforms, including ​Etsy​ and ​Pinterest​. When you visit, interact with, or make a purchase through a third-party service, your use of that service is subject to its own terms and privacy practices.

Reading Fern is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites or services.

Purchases Through Third-Party Marketplaces

Products featured on ReadingFern.com may be sold through third-party marketplaces such as Etsy.

When you make a purchase through a third-party marketplace, information related to your order and payment is collected and processed according to that marketplace's policies and practices.

Reading Fern does not directly collect or store your payment-card information through ReadingFern.com when your purchase is completed through a third-party marketplace.

Purchasing a Reading Fern product does not automatically subscribe you to the Reading Fern marketing email list. You may choose to join the email list separately through a Reading Fern signup form.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website and the services used to operate it may use cookies or similar technologies to provide website functionality, understand website traffic, and measure email or link engagement.

Your browser may allow you to limit or disable cookies. Some website features may not function as intended if cookies are disabled.

Sharing Your Information

Reading Fern does not sell or rent your personal information.

We may share information with service providers when reasonably necessary to operate our website, manage our email list, provide communications you have requested, analyze performance, or comply with applicable law.

Data Retention and Your Choices

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services and communications or meet legitimate business and legal requirements.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time. You may also contact Reading Fern to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we maintain about you, subject to applicable legal requirements and exceptions.

Children’s Privacy

Reading Fern is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
