Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 30, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how BookNox collects, uses, and protects information from people who visit booknox.com and join the waitlist. We’re a small, validation-stage product: we collect the minimum we need to talk to you about access, run the site safely, and respect your rights under US state privacy laws.
Information we collect
- Email address — when you join the waitlist. Required.
- Niche you shoot — when you pick one in the waitlist form (optional).
- Technical metadata on form submission — your IP address, user agent, and timestamp. We keep this in our server logs to detect abuse, prevent spam signups, and preserve evidence if a form is misused.
- Usage logs from the hosting platform (Vercel) — including request paths and basic geolocation derived from IP. These are standard server logs.
How we use it
- To send you a one-time confirmation that you’re on the waitlist and, when access opens, an invite. Occasional product updates only.
- To run the website securely — rate-limiting, abuse detection, evidence preservation if a form is misused.
- To answer messages you send via the contact form.
We do not use your information for advertising or behavioral profiling. We do not run third-party trackers, pixels, or analytics scripts at validation stage.
We do not sell your personal information
BookNox does not sell or share your personal information for cross- context behavioral advertising. We do not lease, trade, or otherwise provide your information to data brokers or marketing list vendors.
Service providers
We use two service providers to operate the site. Each acts only as a processor of your data on our behalf:
- Resend — sends transactional email and stores the waitlist Audience.
- Vercel — hosts the site and runs its server functions; also our domain registrar and DNS provider.
How long we keep it
We keep waitlist information until you ask us to delete it or until we shut down the product. Server logs roll off on a short rotation (typically 30 days) per Vercel’s standard log retention.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you have rights under state privacy laws including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA), the Utah Consumer Privacy Act, the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, and similar laws in other states. These rights generally include:
- The right to know what we have about you.
- The right to a copy of your information.
- The right to delete your information.
- The right to correct inaccurate information.
- The right to opt out of any sale or sharing of your data (we don’t do either; this opt-out is automatic).
- The right to be free from retaliation for exercising your rights.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us through our contact form. We’ll respond within 45 days as required by law. We will not retaliate against you for asking.
Children
BookNox is built for professional photographers. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted information to us, please contact us so we can delete it.
Changes
We’ll update this page if our practices change. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
