Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
Clay Tablet Creative is an independent publishing imprint operated by Scot Lahaie, based in Canton, Ohio. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit claytabletcreative.com, how we use it, and the choices available to you.
Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways: directly from you, and automatically through standard web technologies.
Information you provide directly includes your name and email address when you submit the contact form or sign up for our mailing list. We use this to respond to your inquiry or to send you updates about new releases, news, and events related to Clay Tablet Creative.
Information collected automatically may include your IP address, browser type, referring pages, and pages visited. This data is collected through standard web server logs and, where active, analytics tools such as Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager. This information is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the site and to improve it. It is not used to identify you personally.
Email Communications
If you subscribe to our mailing list, your email address is stored with our email service providers, which may include Mailchimp and/or Brevo (Sendinblue). These platforms maintain their own privacy policies governing data storage and processing. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included at the bottom of every email we send, and your information will be removed from our active list.
Third-Party Links
This site contains links to external platforms, including Amazon, Goodreads, LinkedIn, and Instagram, for the purpose of purchasing books or connecting with Clay Tablet Creative online. Once you leave this site, we have no control over the data practices of those platforms. We encourage you to review their individual privacy policies.
Cookies
This site may use cookies — small text files stored by your browser — to support basic site functionality and analytics. You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or to notify you when a cookie is set. Disabling cookies may affect some site features.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only with the service providers necessary to operate this site (such as our email platform and web host), and only to the extent required for those services to function. We may disclose information if required by law.
Data Retention
Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry. Email subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe. You may request deletion of your information at any time by contacting us directly.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy law, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of personal information we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information below.
Children’s Privacy
This site is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
