Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 2026

1. Who We Are

Diamond Press (http://diamondpresspublishing.com) is operated by Diamond Press, Bakersfield, CA/USA. For any privacy questions, contact us at diamondpresspublishing [at] gmail [dot] com. We are the "data controller" for the limited information described below.

2. What We Collect

This website does not use analytics software, does not run tracking or advertising scripts, and does not have comments, accounts, or user registration. We do not automatically collect or store any personal data about visitors browsing this site.

The only personal data we receive is what you choose to send us directly — for example, if you email us at diamondpresspublishing [at] gmail [dot] com, we receive your email address, name (if provided), and the content of your message. We use this solely to respond to your inquiry, and we keep it only as long as needed to do so (typically no longer than 24 months), after which it is deleted.

If you engage us for paid consulting or freelance publishing services after contacting us by email, we additionally collect and process the files, manuscripts, and correspondence you share with us for that work, along with payment and invoicing details needed to bill and receive payment for the engagement. This information is used solely to deliver the agreed services and is not shared beyond what's needed to complete the work (e.g., with our payment processor).

3. Third-Party Services We Use

We rely on a small number of third-party services to sell books and earn a commission. These third parties may process data under their own privacy policies, which we don't control:

PayPal: Purchases are processed entirely by PayPal. We never receive, see, or store your payment card or banking details. See PayPal's Privacy Statement.
Amazon Associates Program: Diamond Press participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. Some links on this site are affiliate links to Amazon.com. If you click one, Amazon — not this website — may place a cookie on your browser once you arrive on their site, used to credit us with a commission if you make a purchase. This cookie is set and controlled by Amazon on its own domain, governed by Amazon's Privacy Notice. We do not receive any personal information from this process — only aggregate commission totals.

4. Cookies

This website itself does not set any cookies. The only cookie associated with visiting this site is the Amazon affiliate cookie described above, which is placed by Amazon after you leave this site and arrive on theirs — not by this website. You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings, and you can decline the Amazon cookie by adjusting your browser's third-party cookie settings or by declining cookies when prompted on Amazon.com.

5. Your Rights (EU/UK/EEA Visitors)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, you have the right, under the GDPR/UK GDPR, to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal data we hold about you (in practice, this is limited to emails you've sent us); to object to or restrict our processing of it; and to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights, email us at diamondpresspublishing [at] gmail [dot] com.

6. Your Rights (U.S. Visitors)

Some U.S. states give residents rights such as the right to know, delete, or correct personal information a business holds about them, and the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. Diamond Press does not sell or share personal information, and does not meet the revenue or data-volume thresholds that trigger most state privacy laws. As a courtesy, we will still honor reasonable requests regarding any information you've sent us directly — contact us at diamondpresspublishing [at] gmail [dot] com.

7. Children's Privacy

This website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or in the law. The "Last Updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision.

9. Contact Us

Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to diamondpresspublishing [at] gmail [dot] com.
