Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Storied Away (storiedaway.com) collects, uses, and protects your personal information. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.

Storied Away is a curated book recommendation platform operated by Inka, based in Spain. You can contact us at inka@storiedaway.com.

We only collect data that you provide directly to us. This includes your first name and email address when you request a reading list or sign up for updates. We do not collect any other personal data, and we do not use tracking pixels, behavioural analytics, or advertising tools.

Your email address and first name are used for the following purposes:

To send you the reading list you requested. This is a one-time transactional email and does not constitute marketing.

To send you occasional updates about new destinations and book picks, but only if you explicitly opted in by ticking the consent checkbox on our site. You can withdraw this consent at any time.

We process your data on the following legal bases under GDPR:

Contractual necessity — sending the reading list you requested.

Consent — sending marketing updates, where you have explicitly opted in.

Your contact information is stored securely with Resend (resend.com), our email service provider. Resend is GDPR-compliant and processes data in accordance with European data protection law. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any third parties for marketing purposes.

We retain your contact information for as long as you remain subscribed to updates. If you unsubscribe or request deletion, your data will be removed promptly. Transactional email records may be retained for up to 12 months for operational purposes.

Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data at any time. You also have the right to withdraw consent for marketing emails, object to processing, and request data portability. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at inka@storiedaway.com and we will respond within 30 days.

This site uses Google Fonts, which loads font files from Google's servers. This may result in Google receiving your IP address. We use this solely for visual presentation purposes. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Buy links on this site point to third-party retailers including Bookshop.org and Amazon. These sites have their own privacy policies which govern any data collected when you visit them.

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at inka@storiedaway.com.
