Thriller-list signups. When you sign up for the mailing list or free thriller offer, the site collects the email address you choose to submit.

Technical and usage information. Like most websites, the hosting and security infrastructure may process technical information such as IP address, browser type, request headers, and approximate location derived from network data so the site can load correctly, stay secure, and respond to requests.

Direct communications. If you email the contact address directly, the contents of that message and any information you provide will be received and stored through the relevant email service.

The information collected through this site is used to:

• send mailing-list emails, free-download information, launch news, and related updates to subscribers;
• confirm subscriptions and manage unsubscribe requests;
• send readers to the Amazon UK book pages when book buttons are clicked;
• keep the site secure, functional, and available;
• respond to direct enquiries; and
• comply with legal obligations or protect the site, its operator, and visitors.

Where UK or EU data protection law applies, mailing-list signups are generally processed on the basis of your consent.

The site also relies on legitimate interests to run and secure the website, prevent abuse, and provide basic functionality such as retailer links.

If you contact the site directly, your information may be processed to respond to your request or correspondence.

Kit. Mailing-list subscriptions are handled through Kit. Kit acts as the email platform used to collect, store, and send subscriber emails. Kit’s privacy information is available at kit.com/privacy.

Cloudflare. The site is hosted and delivered through Cloudflare, which may process technical request data and set strictly necessary security cookies. Cloudflare’s privacy information is available at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.

Amazon and external platforms. If you click a retailer or social link, you will leave this site and the destination platform will handle your information under its own terms and privacy practices.

Free download files. The free thriller files are hosted as part of this website. If you open or download those files, Cloudflare may process the technical request data needed to deliver them.

Mailing-list information is typically kept until you unsubscribe or request deletion, subject to any limited records needed to maintain suppression lists, prevent accidental re-subscription, comply with legal obligations, or maintain reasonable backups.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email.

Depending on where you live, you may also have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, or objection to the processing of your personal information, and in some cases to data portability or to withdraw consent.
