This page explains what information mikewilliamsbooks.com (this "site") collects when you visit or use it, and how that information is handled. This site belongs to Mike Williams and is not shared with, or sold to, third parties for marketing purposes.

Information You Provide

This site collects information only when you voluntarily submit it through one of two forms:

  • Contact form (/contact/): the reason for your message, your name, your email address and the message itself.
  • Speaking inquiry form (/speaking/#booking): your name, email address, the type and date of your event, expected audience size and a description of the event.
  • Blog mailing list (blog.mikewilliamsbooks.com/#subscribe): your email address and your consent to receive email updates. Signing up requires confirming your subscription by clicking a link sent to that address (double opt-in) — your address is not added to the mailing list until you confirm it.

Browsing the rest of the site — reading about the books, watching media clips, and so on — does not require or collect any of this information.

How Your Information Is Used

Information submitted through the Contact or Speaking Inquiry form is used solely to respond to your message or inquiry. Each submission is forwarded by email directly to Mike; it is not added to the mailing list, used for advertising, or shared with unrelated third parties. This site does not maintain a database of these submissions — once one is emailed, the only remaining record is that email itself.

If you sign up for the blog mailing list, your email address is used only to send you an email when Mike publishes a new blog post. While your signup is awaiting confirmation (for up to 48 hours), it's held in short-lived storage that automatically deletes itself if you never click the confirmation link. Once confirmed, your address is stored by Resend (see below) as a mailing-list contact until you unsubscribe or ask to be removed. Every mailing-list email includes a one-click unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing (or emailing the Contact page to ask) removes you immediately — no login required.

Third-Party Services

A few outside services support the forms and mailing list above, and each has its own privacy policy:

  • Resend delivers the email notification generated by a form submission, sends the mailing list's confirmation and blog-update emails, and stores confirmed mailing-list addresses on our behalf. See Resend's privacy policy.
  • Cloudflare Turnstile screens form and mailing-list submissions for automated (bot) activity before they're processed. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.

This site is hosted on Cloudflare's infrastructure, which — like most hosting and CDN providers — may log basic technical information (such as IP address, browser type and pages requested) for security and performance purposes.

Cookies & Analytics

This site does not currently use advertising cookies, tracking pixels or third-party analytics services.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed to children under 13, and it does not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the site or how it operates. The "last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
