Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
1. Who we are
Garden Library Space is operated by The Authority Club. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our website at gardenlibrary.space.
2. Information we collect
We collect information you provide when creating an account (name, email address, password), information provided during purchases (email address for payment processing), and usage data collected automatically (page visits, browser type) via Vercel Analytics to help us improve the site.
3. How we use your information
We use your information to create and manage your account, process and fulfil your purchases, send you purchase confirmation emails, respond to your support requests, and improve our service. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
4. Payment processing
Payments are processed by Paystack, a third-party payment provider. We do not store your card details. Paystack's privacy policy governs how your payment information is handled. We receive only a transaction reference and confirmation of payment.
5. Email communications
We send transactional emails (account confirmation, purchase receipts) via Resend. We do not send marketing emails without your consent. You can contact us at gardenlibraryspace@gmail.com to manage your communication preferences.
6. Cookies
We use essential cookies to maintain your login session and remember your preferences. We use Vercel Analytics which may set cookies to measure site performance. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
7. Data storage and security
Your data is stored securely on Supabase's infrastructure, hosted on AWS. We use industry-standard encryption for data in transit and at rest. Purchased papers are stored in a private, access-controlled storage bucket — they are never publicly accessible.
8. Your rights
You have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you. To make a request, email us at gardenlibraryspace@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.
9. Data retention
We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. Purchase records are retained for legal and accounting purposes. You may request account deletion at any time by contacting us.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or by posting a notice on the site. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.
