BOOK BOUND EVENTS PRIVACY POLICY
Effective November 4, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Book Bound LLC, doing business as Book Bound Events ("Book Bound," "we," "us"), collects, uses and shares personal information when you visit our website or ticket shop, buy tickets or merchandise, join our book club community, apply to be a vendor, author, sponsor or book club host, attend our events, or contact us. Book Bound is a Utah-based event company. We do not have a public storefront; you can reach us at hello@bookboundevents.com.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us
Order information: your name, email address, phone number, billing and shipping details, and the tickets, packages or merchandise you buy.
Attendee information: names and contact details of guests in your order, and your answers to checkout questions, including your electronic signature accepting our Terms & Conditions.
Requests you make: transfer requests, shipping addresses for VIP items, accessibility or dietary requests, and parental consent forms for guests aged 16–17.
Communications: emails, messages, contact-form submissions and survey responses you send us, and applications to be a vendor, author, sponsor or book club host, which may include business details and social media handles.
Payment information. Card payments are processed by our payment providers, such as Stripe, PayPal or our website's checkout provider. We do not receive or store your full card number.
Information collected automatically. When you use our website or ticket shop, we and our providers collect device and usage information such as browser type, pages viewed, referring sites and approximate location, using cookies and similar tools, such as Squarespace's analytics, Google Analytics and, where used, social media advertising pixels.
Information collected at events. We may check government-issued ID at entry to confirm age and identity; we do not copy or keep ID images. We record ticket check-ins. Events are photographed and filmed, so your image, likeness and voice may be captured, as described in our Terms & Conditions.
2. How we use your information
To sell, deliver, transfer and check in tickets, and to run our events, our book club community, and our vendor, author, sponsor and host programs.
To send event information, updates, changes and safety notices.
To provide VIP items, fulfill and ship merchandise orders, handle returns, and provide accommodations and customer service.
To process refunds, handle payment disputes and chargebacks, and prevent fraud.
To keep records of purchases and Terms & Conditions acceptance, and to meet legal, tax and accounting obligations.
To promote Book Bound using event photos and video, as described in our Terms & Conditions.
To send marketing emails about future events, if you have opted in or as otherwise permitted by law.
To understand how our website and events are used so we can improve them.
3. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as needed:
Service providers that help us operate, such as Ticket Tailor (ticketing), Squarespace (website and online store), Circle (book club community), payment processors, Printful (which prints and ships our merchandise and receives your name, shipping address and order details to do so), shipping carriers, email providers, analytics providers, accountants and attorneys. Circle and other platforms you sign up for directly may also collect information under their own privacy policies.
Refund Protection. If you choose optional Refund Protection at checkout, the administrator, Booking Protect Limited (XCover), receives the information it needs to provide that coverage and handles it as an independent controller under its own privacy policy.
Event partners. Venues, caterers, security and similar vendors may receive limited information, such as guest names for check-in or dietary needs, only to deliver the event.
Legal and safety reasons. When required by law, or to protect the rights, property or safety of our guests, staff or business.
Business transfers. If Book Bound is sold, merged or reorganized, information may transfer to the new owner under this policy.
Event photos and video we publish are public by nature, and content posted by creators or other guests is controlled by them.
4. Marketing choices
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us. We will still send messages about tickets you have bought, such as event updates and changes.
5. Cookies
You can set your browser to block or delete cookies. Some parts of the ticket shop may not work properly without them. You can opt out of Google Analytics using Google's browser add-on. Our website and ticket shop do not currently respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals. Third-party analytics and advertising providers may collect information about your online activity over time and across different websites.
6. How long we keep information
We keep order, payment and Terms & Conditions acceptance records for up to seven years after the related event, so we can meet tax and legal obligations and respond to disputes. We keep marketing contact information until you unsubscribe. Published event photos and video may be kept indefinitely as part of our promotional archive.
7. Your requests
You can ask us to access, correct or delete your personal information by emailing hello@bookboundevents.com. We will respond within a reasonable time and honor your request where required by law or where we reasonably can. We may keep records we need for legal, tax, dispute or safety purposes.
8. Young guests
Our events are for adults. Guests aged 16–17 may attend only with our prior approval and a signed parental consent form. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
9. Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect personal information and rely on established providers for ticketing and payments. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Where information is stored
We are based in the United States. Some of our providers, including Ticket Tailor and Printful, may store or process information, or fulfill orders, in other countries.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The effective date at the top shows when it last changed. Material changes will be posted here before they take effect.
